We’re Owl About Our New Card Obsession

Night Owl Paper Goods makes handmade letterpress cards and eco-chic wooden goodies in a style they like to call “modern yet folksy,” and we like to call cupcakey art for your mailbox. They offer a huge selection of cards and gifts for all occasions, all created from eco-friendly, sustainably-harvested birch wood and 100% cotton paper made from reclaimed fibers of the textile industry.  And if it couldn’t get cooler, they do exquisite custom printing (all done as green as possible from inks to fibers) and the most precious prints we’ve ever seen.
While working together at a design firm and art gallery, graphic designers (and now co-owners) Jennifer and Alan daydreamed about starting their own stationery company. At first, they pursued their dream as true night owls, moonlighting after hours. Then in 2004, Night Owl Paper Goods finally took flight. Years later, the company is still soaring! Alan and Jennifer continue illustrate the entire line of greeting cards, journals, jotters and
more by intermixing their critter, botanical and pattern design styles. Passionate about the environment and inspired by the nature and beauty that surround them, they are totally devoted to creating “modern yet folksy” handmade letterpress cards and eco-chic wooden goodies. They feel very fortunate to have created a company and product line that combines everything they love: design + printing + writing + paper + wood + nature + the environment + friends + family. What a hoot! Although the company is homegrown and family-run in what they affectionately refer to as Birmingham, Owlabama, many of their products can be found nesting in more than 1000 retail stores world-wide! In addition, their entire line of 1,000+ unique and whimsical cards, gifties and goodies are available via their online stationery shop, www.nightowlpapergoods.com.
Why do we love them?
Not only are their designs vibrant, eye-catching and utterly adorable, each card is like a small gift! And best of all, their goods are all eco-friendly and made in the USA. Whether you’re taking steps toward being more eco-conscious or you’re looking for the perfect way to set yourself apart from the crowd, nothing makes a statement like a card or gift made from real wood!
Take a peek at a few of our favorites goodies in their web shop:
Emergency Card Kit

Wood Wedding Stationery
Get this…wedding invitations, save the dates, reply cards, reception pieces, guest gifts and more, all created from eco-friendly, sustainably-harvested birch wood! From modern to vintage to woodlands to tropical, they offer a breadth of styles and designs to help you express your unique personality and wedding theme.
Print Your Own Design on Wood
In the event that you already have your own design, illustration or photograph, they can even print it on wood for you, allowing you to create your very own signature wood cards, jotters, journals and more!  We particularly love making custom “Thank You” cards and ordering in bulk, leaving you to never have to hustle to the drugstore for hideous, eco-evil, crummy thank you cards again.
