It’s been a year now since Karla Ebrahimi introduced her LetterBox to rave reviews from Oprah and Forbes, and now the Sky of Blue Cards founder has brilliantly expanded her collection of stationery subscription boxes.
First off, meet LetterBox Lite. Karla describes it as “a pared-down version of the original LetterBox that still builds a greeting card collection and inspires the art of letter-writing time and again.”
At the start of each month, a sturdy kraft mailing envelope arrives with three carefully selected letterpress cards. One is themed specifically to that particular month, while the other two range from birthday greetings, encouragement cards and congratulations cards, to note cards and thank yous. Each envelope is already stamped with a custom design!
“Our hope with LetterBox Lite is to continue to appeal to our LetterBox subscribers, and also to individuals who love fine stationery and always have a few cards on-hand!” Karla told me.
This LetterBox speaks to that need, filled with five gratitude-inspired letterpressed cards wrapped with baker’s twine,
five custom LetterBox postage stamps; a white glasses writing pen by Seltzer’s Seven-Year Pens; a “Gratitude is Everything” pencil; a handmade gratitude jar filled with 10 mini olive scrolls to write what you are grateful for; a packet of “Random Acts of Kindness” wildflower seeds from The Vermont Wildflower Farm; and a Small Fortune coin purse by BlueQ as a reminder to enjoy even the smallest things in life.
Tucked inside nests a boxed set of eight “Strong, Fight Like a Girl” BCA cards; eight custom LetterBox postage stamps, in BCA signature pink; three clear vinyl die-cut motivational stickers — designed by Karla herself! — durable enough for water bottles, laptops, or cars; a pink unicorn writing pen by Seven-Year Pens; an Aquiesse Pink Peony Soy Travel Candle; and a pouch of imported Bella Rosa Rosewater Candy Rosettes from Italy from fine confectionary retailer Sugarfina.
Inside you’ll find five letterpressed cards tied with brown satin ribbon; five custom blue LetterBox postage stamps; 1 Goal Digger black & gold pen; a sheet of Trees or Birdies gift wrap; two kraft gift tags with a cute little wooden clip; a mini-wooden spool of twine; a taster packet of Sugarfina Pumpkin Pie Caramels; and 2 Republic of Tea teabags, again with a cute little wooden clip.
