  • The Joy of Sending Cards: Why a Handwritten Card Still Means So Much
    by Hazel Gordon

    When was the last time you received a card through the post that wasn't a bill, an appointment reminder or something addressed to "The Occupier"?

     

    There's something rather lovely about finding a handwritten envelope among the everyday post. Someone has taken the time to choose a card, write a message, find a stamp and send a little piece of happiness your way.

     

    In a world where we can send a message in seconds, giving and receiving greeting cards remains a meaningful way to connect with the people who matter to us.

     

    At Alchemist Gallery in Dingwall, we've always loved cards. From beautifully illustrated designs and quirky humour to thoughtful messages and original artwork, we believe a good card is much more than a folded piece of paper.
