The Best Cards Available to Buy on Etsy: Part Two

Welcome to Part 2 of my three-part series in regard to the best cards available to buy on Etsy. In Part 1, which you can read here, I wrote about several fantastic greeting cards that are listed on the global marketplace, including a Friends-themed card, an Indiana Jones birthday card and a watercolour card featuring a vacuuming bear!

In this blog, you'll see some more amazing cards on Etsy for different occasions, including one for an anniversary and another for a wedding, a card to thank a loved one, one to say get well and also a friendship card.

Who can resist a 3D pop-up card and this romantic, intricate, laser-cut Wisteria Arbor one is a stunning work of art from San-Diego-based iGiftsAndCards. It's message-free so that you can buy it for a couple for all sorts of special occasions but I love it as an anniversary card to be treasured for many years to come. iGiftsAndCards have all kinds of other exquisite designs for occasions including graduation, Halloween, Chinese New Year and of course birthdays and I'm sure you won't be able to resist them, just like me! 

This stunning handmade wedding card from Delaney Jane Cards in Wisconsin features lovely artwork using Copic markers. With the simple 'Congratulations' sentiment on the front and blank inside (except for a lighter stamping of the main image), you can add your own message to complete this card for that special couple on their wedding day. There are many more occasions to choose from with this seller too, so take a look at the unique designs here.  


You don't just get one handmade Ranunculus thank you card with this Etsy purchase - you get three - and they're all embedded with wildflower seeds so after admiring them, the recipients can plant them. We recently wrote about SowSweet Greetings, the Toronto-based seed paper greeting card business, and these seed cards are made by Of The Earth who are located in Seattle. The recycled paper contains ten different species of flowers, including Chamomile, Snapdragon, Foxglove, Beardtongue, Daisy, Petunia, Thyme, Poppy, Catchfly and Maiden Pinks and all you need is soil, water and sunlight to see them bloom. 

This cheerful and gorgeously colourful get well card from Alex Clark Art in the northeast of England features original watercolour artwork with highlights of foil. What better way to cheer up a loved one who's feeling under the weather than with a first-aid-kit-wielding bumblebee! Alex Clark sells so much more than greeting cards too, with wares such as notebooks, planners, mugs, cushions, coasters and kitchenware that you'll surely spend hours browsing some truly lovely and unique items.

Whether you're missing your bestie due to coronavirus or you just want to let a friend know that you're thinking of them, a friendship card is a great, simple way to do so and this adorable and quirky card from Wally Paper Co hits the spot perfectly. Located in Melbourne, Australia, Wally Paper Co designs cards for all kinds of occasions, including new babies, anniversaries and Christmas, with the focus on drawing 'kooky characters and charismatic creatures', which I'm sure you'll fall in love with.
