    Default All-occasion greeting or note cards - recommendations?

    Has anyone purchased blank, all-purpose greeting/note cards on Amazon that they love? I'm looking for something really pretty/artsy that I can use for all occasions - as thank you cards, etc. I don't need a ton as I don't use them often but would like something that would make someone happy to look at and feels nice in the hands - a good quality cardstock.

    I have some from Target that I really like but nothing on Amazon. I did buy a big pack of postcards on Amazon (National Parks themed) to include in college care packages though. I enjoy using them!

    Not an amazon recommendation but I like the notecard sets from Target and pick them up every so often to use just like that. They are very inexpensive but they have really nice prints.

    I also pick up cards nearly every time I go to Trader Joes. Their greeting cards are not necessarily generic but they are SO pretty and at one dollar per card, they are also pretty inexpensive. I have been saved so many times lately by having pretty cards of various messages from my Trader Joes stash.

    I bought some great cards a while back. I’ll look later and post back with details.

    I have these and will need to actually send them out - I asked for them shortly after my aunt died this summer and have yet to send anything to my uncle and cousins, mostly from a lack of stamps.

    They're probably a lot plainer than you're looking for, but I find simple works best for me.

    Two 'not really what you were asking' suggestions. I have, and love, personalized stationary on nice cardstock. People always comment when they get something written on it - it feels like a throwback to another time. I like simple embossed (tone on tone) but have always been happy with what I've ordered from https://www.embossedgraphics.com/.

    My other suggestion is to look on Etsy -

    Happy shopping!

    I like to browse the Target selections so I have some on-hand for Scouts.

    I really like the Trader Joe's selection, too. One of my favorite things is how I can always find something quirky but not mean-spirited, because I don't really enjoy sending/giving sentimental cards.

    I'm another vote for getting personalized stationery. I've ordered from quite a few different places over the years for myself & my kids. I've never gotten a bad batch from any of them. My first go to thought is always https://www.americanstationery.com/p...old-notes.html but I've also used https://www.thestationerystudio.com/ and https://www.vistaprint.com/stationery/note-cards/ depending on who had the best deal and the best look for what I wanted.

    Do you have a Paper Store near you? I've gotten some nice quality, whimsical cards there. You can use coupons too. They usually come in a 10 pack.
