Seasoned Greetings

Felix Doolittle Greeting Cards

What is it that draws aged aunties to sappy greeting cards? If you have to read another poem containing the words cherish, miracle, or amen, you’ll spew eggnog all over your card tree.

If only your well-meaning relatives had got their hands on Felix Doolittle’s sentiments. The beautifully detailed cards feature whimsical, nostalgic, and, yes, heartwarming illustrations on heavy stock. The blank cards speak for themselves with drawings that look as if they were taken straight from a picture book.

For parties, check out the invitations, which will save you time and effort. Simply pencil in the details around designs like a rose bouquet, a black-tie pig, ducks, or dancing maidens.

The note cards and wild cards, which come in a multitude of themes (the World Champs edition is a fave), work for any occasion — even random scribbling.

They’re sure to bring the smiles. And guaranteed spew-free.

Amen to that.
