Sept 19, 2023 — What do you and the friends you run around with like to do for grins? Contributing Cardie Mary Pat Rossi and her crew enjoy day trips to interesting towns around their home state of Pennsylvania. And when they discover a card, book, or gift shop they love, MP encourages the retailer to carry Cardthartic!  😆

Mary Pat is not the first Cardie to email us to say something like she did in the spring of ‘22. “I love Christine’s Hallmark in State College, PA, and it would be so great to be able to buy Cardthartic there. Am I okay to suggest your company to Christine? Not sure if she would be open to it, but she always has fresh new lines of cards and very unique gifts. Please advise as I don’t want to step on any toes but would love to have Cardthartic in a store close to me! Thanks, mp”

Our great Pennsylvania rep promptly helped Mary Pat make her wish come true. “Just left Christine’s Hallmark,” Darla Markley reported soon after. “She is excited to bring in two 64-pocket fixtures, one each for Passages and Meanings of Life.” And just a few weeks ago, a very happy Christine Baker reached out to ask if Darla could make a special trip to the store to restock the fixtures because, “They’re selling like wildfire!”

While we’re pleased to sell you our cards online, we’ll be the first to say shopping at cardthartic.com cannot compare to the pleasure of being in a great local shop. As MP once wrote to Christine: “Thanks for always making us feel so welcome. Your store is so full of positive energy and joy.

“My dad was a small business owner,” Mary Pat explained, “and my brothers have carried that on with their own businesses. I know the work, sacrifice, and time it takes. YOU and your amazing employees help make shopping at your store an awesome experience, Christine! And we take the good energy in your store home with us.”

Here’s to having your own Cardthartic shop around the corner!
