I used to always keep a supply of card stock stationery on hand -- really on hand, because they usually sit beside a little organization/office area in the kitchen. These casual, everyday note cards were perfect for quick notes and hand-crafted greeting cards from the children (and even us!). In a pinch, we could drop them down into a gift bag to accompany a present. When Lauren and Grace became writers, they depleted these boxes faster than I could purchase them, and I sort of fell out of the habit.
Last spring, I picked up a box again, and we have used them for birthday cards (the trio usually draw a picture on the front and write a message on the back), for cards for teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week, and for end-of-year thank you notes.
We have nicer stationery, and we purchase greeting cards for special occasions. However, this cheery box of informal cards is once again our go-to for sending out messages.
The above cards are available at Target for approximately $14.00/200 cards.
