In a world where digital messages dominate, the magic of a handwritten card stands out more than ever. The “best wishes” for a wedding. The first “welcome to the world, little one.” The “here’s to another year” birthday greeting. The holiday updates from family near and far. These cards hold love, memory, and meaning, yet most of us end up tucking them into drawers, bins, or shoeboxes with no real way to enjoy them after the initial joy.

Enter the Card Book: a beautifully designed keepsake that transforms sentimental clutter into something you can display, flip through, and treasure for generations.

Whether you're organizing cards from a milestone moment or searching for a heartfelt holiday gift, Plum Print’s custom Card Books make memory-keeping effortless and elegant.

Why Card Books Are the Ultimate Keepsake

Organized Elegance

Instead of scattering cards throughout your home, a Card Book brings everything together in one beautifully bound place. You can organize by theme or occasion such as Baby’s First Year, Our Wedding Cards, Birthday Wishes, Graduation Memories, or Holiday Cards.

Preserve Sentimental Value

Handwritten notes, inside jokes, and heartfelt messages deserve more than a dusty box. Plum Print’s archival-quality scanning and professional binding protect your cards so the memories last.

A Stylish Piece of Decor

Your Card Book doesn’t belong in storage. Designed with modern, coffee-table-worthy covers, they are meant to be displayed and enjoyed.

Card Book Holiday Gifting Ideas

Looking for a meaningful, clutter-free gift this holiday season? A Plum Print Card Box is a heartfelt way to help someone you love finally organize and celebrate their memories.

Gift a Plum Print Card Box

There are two thoughtful ways to gift it:

1. Gift the Card Box with the standard deposit
This covers the shipping kit and gets them started. They can send in their cards whenever they’re ready and pay for the book once they choose their details.

2. Cover the Card Box deposit plus the first 20 cards
A slightly upgraded option. This allows your recipient to begin their book at no additional cost, making the gift feel even more complete and encouraging them to finally turn their cards into a keepsake.

Both options give the recipient everything they need to begin creating a Card Book they’ll cherish for years.

A Plum Print Card Box is ideal for:

• Newlyweds

• New parents

• Grandparents

• Graduates

• Families who send or receive holiday cards

• Anyone who keeps cards with the intention of “doing something with them someday”

It is a gift that says:
Your memories matter, and they deserve a beautiful home.

The Emotional Value of a Card Book

Card Books celebrate the people and moments that shape your life. Flipping through one can transport you back to feelings, milestones, relationships, and seasons that deserve to be remembered.

A Card Book is more than a keepsake. It is a story. Your story.
