10 Greeting Cards You’ll Frame Because They Are So Pretty

Have you ever received a greeting card that was so pretty that you needed to frame it? The very thought of throwing it away or shoving it in a drawer just felt wrong. That has happened to me.

Out of the blue last week, I received a postcard from a friend. A friend I’ve made because of this blog. (How lucky am I? The luckiest.) Her love language is making cards and sending cards and postcards to her friends and family. How great is that?

Receiving her postcard got me thinking, “How is my stock of cards looking?” I usually keep generic cards on hand that will work for a variety of occasions because it makes my life easier. Generic doesn’t mean boring, though.

Here are 10 greeting cards you’ll frame because they are so pretty!

Wood Greeting Card | Etsy

I was today-years-old when I realized wood greeting cards were a thing. I don’t know how it works, but I want one.

Embroidered Cards | Etsy

I love anything embroidered. I’ve only tried embroidering on paper once, and realized it takes more discipline than I have to make all the perfectly placed holes for the thread.

Bird Cards | Etsy

The colors of these cards are glorious, but really, they just made me laugh. More laughter in our lives is always a good thing.

Embossed Cardinal Cards | Etsy

Cardinals hold special meaning for many people. Even the envelope is embossed!

Quilted Cards | Etsy

These cards are killing me with quilted cuteness. Imagine this framed in a nursery or in a craft room.

Beach Card | Etsy

The beach lovers among us will love this card. Even the envelope is amazing. The only thing missing is a palm tree.

Wildflower Seed Paper Cards | Etsy

These cards you might not frame, but you can plant them, and maybe wildflowers will grow! Dare I say, that’s even better?
