The Right Card

I used to really like this boutique they have a lot of interesting gifts and cards for random occasions… But I recently went to them for wedding invitations and the owner said that she would get back to me about potential cards and prices she never did and when I called she never called me back after three different times I just gave up and went somewhere else. I think that Customer Service is so important in this kind of industry and I will not be using them again because they did not follow through it with me as promised.

The kind of store you can appreciate even more around the holidays, as there’s a whole section devoted to boxed sets with season’s greetings. They also have standalone beauties (lots of them letterpress) and sets of thank yous, bridal invites, and all kinds of momentous and mundane occasions in between. There’s a corner of gift-​y items, appropriate for hostess gifts. What I was really disappointed by was that despite their name, they had next to NO cards just right for my needs. I wanted a boxed set of the beautiful Colorado scenery. They had only a few of CO at all… most were watercolor illustrations of odd things (like maps and odd notables), only one featured photography — but it was all wildflowers. They should really think about devoting a space to cards featuring the sweeping mountain views and seasons. As a tourist, that’s what I want. And if I were a local, that’s what I’d want to write letters on to friends.

If you’re looking for a place to buy cute novelty items such as cards, picture frames, magnets, or books, then this is it. It definitely has a «upscale gift shop» vibe to it.
Some items are a bit on the expensive side, but then again it’s a novelty store. The staff wasn’t too helpful when I was there. They were talking among themselves and I never once got asked if I needed help.
Overall, nice store to traipse around in for sure.

So many cards to pick from… if you have run out of ideas to send just the perfect card this is the place to go! They got (or did) Ugly Dolls too! Yay!

Tons of unique cards, from the touching, to the crass, to the handmade and beautiful, if you need the perfect card, they have it! Just be careful, some of those nice handmade ones can be a bit pricey (I saw one for $ 18…yikes!). But if you want to wow them (or want to avoid Hallmark), it is there. They also have a lot of cute gifty items, an assortment of books, and candy, which makes them a pretty good one-​stop-​shop for gifts. It is also probably one of the better stores to also stop at if you are just «window shopping» around Old Town.
That all being said, in all honesty I probably wouldn’t make a special trip to Old Town for most of my general card needs, just for those special occasion and when I am already in the neighborhood.
In all: Great, unique card selection that is definitely worth a stop at!

A wonderful little card shop on the corner of the square in Old Town, Fort Collins.
