<p class="has-drop-cap">If you&#8217;re reading this, you undoubtedly love cards — ;but that doesn&#8217;t mean you always know what to write inside. Finding the right words during difficult or emotionally fraught situations — ;especially when they occur during the holidays — can be really, really tough, so I&#8217;m really gratified today to share a recommendation from one of my readers here, Tracey. </p>

<p>&#8220;As someone who loves cards, wrapping paper and stationery, I so enjoy your blog,&#8221; Tracey wrote me. &#8220;I&#8217;ve discovered a number of companies and designers I wouldn&#8217;t have known about otherwise thanks to you. One of the lines that&#8217;s my favorite right now is <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Positively Green (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.live-inspired.com/catalog/category/greeting-cards/positively-green/" target="_blank">Positively Green</a>. I first bought their cards following the death of a relative. Sympathy cards seem particularly tricky to me, and the cards they offer strike just the right note. I have no connection to Positively Green other than appreciating their ability to find the words when I cannot.&#8221;</p>



<p>Thank you so much Tracey! The range, published by <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Compendium (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.live-inspired.com/" target="_blank">Compendium</a>, is thoughtfully and meticulously crafted: eco-friendly, made in the USA and each even features a helpful green tip on back. Here&#8217;s a few recently released favorites; as you&#8217;ll see, they&#8217;re the perfect accompaniment to life as you celebrate good times and navigate the more messy ones. </p><div class="inline-post clearfix"><div class="see-also byline">See also</div><div id="block-wrap-60945" class="block-wrap-native block-wrap block-wrap-23 block-css-60945 block-wrap-classic columns__m--1 elements-design-3 block-ani block-skin-0 tipi-box block-wrap-thumbnail ppl-m-1 clearfix" data-id="60945" data-base="0"><div class="tipi-row-inner-style clearfix"><div class="tipi-row-inner-box contents sticky--wrap"><div class="block block-23 clearfix"><article class="tipi-xs-12 clearfix with-fi ani-base tipi-xs-typo split-1 split-design-1 loop-0 preview-thumbnail preview-23 elements-design-3 post-13945 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-favorites tag-birthday-cards tag-british-design tag-gift-wrap tag-greeting-cards tag-sarah-schwartz tag-stationery tag-taab-london tag-thank-you-cards tag-thank-you-stationery tag-the-paper-chronicles tag-thomasin-arnold-baker" style="--animation-order:0"><div class="preview-mini-wrap clearfix"><div class="mask"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/fresh-from-the-uk-meet-taab-london/" class="mask-img"><img width="100" height="100" src="https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=150%2C150&;ssl=1 150w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=200%2C200&;ssl=1 200w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=293%2C293&;ssl=1 293w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=75%2C75&;ssl=1 75w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=390%2C390&;ssl=1 390w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=585%2C585&;ssl=1 585w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=770%2C770&;ssl=1 770w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=24%2C24&;ssl=1 24w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=48%2C48&;ssl=1 48w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/250216_taab_03.jpg?resize=96%2C96&;ssl=1 96w" sizes="(max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" /></a></div><div class="meta"><div class="byline byline-2 byline-cats-design-4"><div class="byline-part cats"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/category/favorites/" style="color:#b79b0d" class="cat">Favorites</a></div></div><div class="title-wrap"><h3 class="title"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/fresh-from-the-uk-meet-taab-london/">Fresh from the UK, meet TAAB London!</a></h3></div><div class="byline byline-3"><span class="byline-part date"><i class="tipi-i-calendar" aria-hidden="true"></i> <time class="entry-date published dateCreated flipboard-date" datetime="2016-03-09T13:51:30+00:00">March 9, 2016</time></span><span class="byline-part likes-count"><a href="#" class="tipi-like-count " data-pid="13945"><span class="likes-heart"><i class="tipi-i-heart-o" aria-hidden="true"></i><i class="tipi-i-heart" aria-hidden="true"></i></span><span class="tipi-value">0</span></a></span></div></div></div></article></div></div></div></div></div></tipimidc>
