  There’s always Moo.com for making your own or choosing from all the other designs they have! I like these choices though.

  Ooh. Nice. I especially like the ones from Pinkerton. I’ll have to get cards from them in the future.

  For some reason, I’m drawing a blank on a couple of others but Palindrome Press always has some nice stuff. (like Egg Press, they’re also here in Portland)

  I am amazingly luckey to have an interesting card shop withing walking distence of my office :-) People always comment on my cards, how they are unusual or for some people, down right funny :-)

  So, for anyone in Reading, Berkshire, UK go to Bt Is It Art? off Broadstreet, in cross street I think, very very worth it

  Does anyone think that independantly designed cards occasionally come off a whole lot more contrived than Hallmark, simply from trying too hard to be unique?
