<p>Tiny is the new big these days — just ask <a href="http://www.emilymcdowell.com/" target="_blank">Emily McDowell</a>. The West Coaster who set stationery on fire offers several charmingly offbeat yet unexpectedly honest styles of 2&#8243;x3&#8243; cards.</p>
<p>Depending on which design you choose, they&#8217;re ideal for slipping in children&#8217;s lunchboxes, taping up on co-worker&#8217;s monitors — and my personal favorite, pressing into the palms of friendly strangers.</p>
