Nicely Noted Delivers Quirky and One-Of-A-Kind Greeting Cards

Those with a penchant for traditional snail mail who still take the time to send handwritten cards to loved ones on special occasions will find the Nicely Noted subscription service fits all of their old-school stationery needs.

Each month subscribers receive three specially selected cards with unique letterpress designs emblazoned on the front. Perry Nelson, the founder of the company, selects the best letterpress designers from across the country to design the greetings that are sent out to her customers each month.

For each delivery the receiver is given a selection of both holiday specific cards and generic greetings that are blank on the inside to allow for a personalized message to be inserted.

At $18 a month the service is comparable to store prices and offers unique designs that the recipients can cherish.
