"Greeting cards were more than just paper to my mom and me. It was the center of our love, our hearts."

Inspiration
While living hundreds of miles apart, writing cards to one another was a tangible expression of the love that my mother and I shared. Each card held not only heartfelt messages but also captured my mom’s essence and spirit. Each one of these tiny, hand-written treasures held a special place, reminding me of the bond between my mom and me, and the love that carried us through life’s challenges. Her cards have left lifelong advice, love, guidance on the days that I had needed it most. With every card, I can hear her voice-her laughter-her love.
"Fate had different plans, leaving us with only memories and a yearning for the words that would never be written."

Tragedy to hope
In September 2018, tragedy struck. My mom was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and we found ourselves clinging to every moment we had left. Cards for every occasion were purchased with the hope she would fill them out, leaving lasting tokens of her love and wisdom. Unfortunately, it was too late. In the months after her passing, I would open the cards from years before hoping to find comfort. It was in reading these cards and reflecting on her passing that the idea came for One Last Card. We all hope for one last hug- one last call- One Last Card.

A Card Says It All
We believe that everyone deserves the chance to say goodbye, to leave behind messages of love and hope that can sustain those they leave behind. Our story serves as a reminder that life is fleeting, but love endures. It urges us to cherish every moment, hold our loved ones close, and seize every opportunity to say, “I love you.” Through our cards, we hope to help you do just that—capture the essence of your relationships and leave behind a legacy of enduring love.
"Our cards are more than mere products; they're a way to connect with our loved ones, capturing their essence and what they mean to us."
