Break out the bubbly!

We're thrilled to have won our first-ever piece of hardware in the first-ever Trendy Awards!

The "Melee" birthday card from our Headlines Collection was named Best Greeting Card, and we're so excited, we're scared:



Thanks to everyone who voted for us, and to Stationery Trends magazine for putting together such a great competition. Check out all the winners below:

And the winner is...

...hopefully Old Tom Foolery.

In the past two weeks, we've been lucky enough to be nominated for a couple of the greeting card industry's biggest awards: The Trendys and the LOUIEs.

We had two cards voted into the top ten for the first-ever Trendy Awards, which is sponsored by Stationery Trends magazine. If you're involved in the greeting card industry in any capacity (as a store owner, buyer, sales rep, blogger, fan, etc.), please vote right this very second for our Headlines Collection card pictured below. (You'll have to register to vote if you haven't already--but trust us, it's quick and painless.) Voting closes on Saturday, April 17.

We're also thrilled to be nominated for three LOUIE Awards this year--in the Rising Star, Superbly Stated, and Everyday categories. Last year, we were the Susan Lucci of the LOUIEs, failing to win in any of the five categories in which we were nominated. Let's hope the second time's a charm.
