My favorite Mother’s Day card at The Desk Set:

Lead Graffiti - MOM

I love this card by Lead Graffiti for many reasons: it was the first Mother’s Day my daughter (and husband) gave me; it’s on purple paper; it’s letterpress and it’s just fabulous!

Front of card

Painted Tongue Press is located in Oakland, California and we are so happy to carry their lovely cards at The Desk Set.

Each card is skillfully printed via letterpress and has such unique details as a printed envelope flap and a design on the back of the card.

Isn’t this a lovely card?

Happy Mother-in-law’s Day

Since there is a day just for Mother-in-law’s, but it isn’t widely known, this Sunday, Mother’s Day will be just as good a day to give her this card!

A Green Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is this Sunday and children are buying their mothers cards like crazy at The Desk Set!

Here is another card we like:

TreeNex Plants a Tree for Mom

This card retails for $6.00 and with each card bought, the company plants a tree! You can watch your tree grow by entering the code found on the back of the card!

These cards are great! Printed on recycled paper and for each card bought a tree is planted in Lithuania!

Almost 9000 trees have been planted with the purchase of these cards!

Have a Green Mother’s Day!

This Mother’s Day Card is a particularly funny card, which are hard to find at The Desk Set:

The inside reads:

Thanks for always being there Mom, Happy Mother’s Day.

The Naughty Betty line is one of our favorite lines because they really do say what you are thinking!
