Little Gestures: 50 Postcards for Any Occasion (@bymariandrew)

Sweet as can be and almost gone!!

Beautiful cards that echo Mari Andrew's uniquely amazing ability to touch others through art. I think receiving these has meant the world to my friends and family. It is such a small gesture, like a post card, but her art really touches people. There are a couple of each so you will actually use them without wanting to save!!! (Though i have put a few up on the wall).

Bought this for a friend who loves Mari Andrew's first book as much as I do. She loves to mail out post cards and the best part about this is that it includes 2 copies of each design, so she can mail one and keep one for herself.

I am so happy I bought these post cards. I love that they are divided by tabs that tell you what they are for. I also really enjoy the book format. I have used these multiple times and when I run out I will buy these postcards again.

These postcards have great messages for every occasion. I have used them many times and have always found a card that said the perfect thing for what I needed! Buying these has inspired me to send more snail mail which I love to do. Will probably buy this product again once I run out! I love these postcards=!!

illustrations are vivid and lovely, covering a variety of situations. love that i get multiples of each print. cards are perforated for easy tear out as well. if only stampage was included! :)

Mari Andrew’s lovely artwork + snail mail = the best combo ever. What a joy to send a postcard to a friend, either for an occasion or just because. I used my very first postcard to send my godson a very happy 1st birthday greeting.

Maybe I should have looked more closely at what I was getting here. I heard the creator of these cards on a podcast and thought they would be wonderful. However what you get is a book of postcards in which there are 2 of each design. The designs are cute, but tiny, and the message of each card incredibly specific. So far I can’t imagine any of them being appropriate for any friend or situation where I would normally send a card. Some of the messages, while possibly empathetic, are lacking in hopefulness or supportiveness. I get that there are some situations in which there is no “yay” message to send, but in that case I think your own message on a blank card would be much more meaningful than a picture of a broken and repaired vase as a metaphor for a life situation. I wanted to love these but am disappointed and will probably donate the item in hope that someone might find them more useful than I do.
