the cards
The card remadeNo, there is not a new way to record your voice, send a video, or make a note synced with your phone. Instead you find a card with a simple message to uplift, encourage, and bring hope to anyone. You will not find any branding, websites, or sneaky advertising on the back. Just a simple card with 3 blank sides to pour out your heart, draw a picture, or say a quick hello!
Picking up this card, you will feel the firm, premium 100# paper stock. It has a beautiful texture that begs to be touched. These cards are printed on FSC certified paper. These cards are unlike any card you will find. It is the card ReImagined. It simplifies instead of distracting. |
Changing the way we connectThese day we spend hours texting, emailing, checking social media, playing games, taking selfies, and so on. We are connected to screens instead of people. Instead of connecting, we disconnect into our own little world. We get lost browsing endlessly for hours.
Why not look up and see the simple things in life. We become so focused on what has no point in the end, that we forget to take time to enjoy real life. With Simple Things, the goal is to help people realize the simple moments in life are the most important. |
changing cardsYou can walk into any local pharmacy and buy a card. You can find a card for everything from Grandma's-eighty-seventh-birthday-celabration to a get-well-from-your-cold card. Most of these cards are put together from some huge corporate company. These cards are all printed on some cheap paper with a little message on it with a design on the front, a continued message inside, and branding on the back. Instead of some quick saying or unfelt message on 50# paper stock, quickly made, and printed, Simple Things has set out to make each card meet high standards. A card is individually designed by hand with pictures sourced and taken on the iPad min or iPhone 5c. Instead of some short message, only the best quotes are chosen to make any day brighter.

Changing the worldIn a world so full screens it seams as if it should exploded into a bright light. Yet the world is full of dark doubt and almost no-one is connected to each other anymore. It's only them and their big bright screens.
Ask anyone if a simple card could change the world and they would say no. Well, I believe that the ones crazy enough to think that they can change the world are the ones who do. So if you asked me if a card could change the world, I would answer yes. |
Front designIt is hard to find a card with photography that is not just a stock image that has been photoshopped 10 times and is sold to anyone to put on their card. Well you will not find any of that on these simplistic cards. All images are taken by 14 year old Conner Haines on his iPad mini or iPhone. With the hand picked quotes and amazing fonts, both the words and the image will pop out. Instead of just having quotes or just having an image these cards stepped up and used both.

INSIDE AND OUTUnlike your normal card this card is made of only high quality paper. You have the front that is well designed with a HD printed picture. The inside and back are a blank slate to write whatever you wish. The best thing about these cards are they are quality cards without all the "branding snaz" on the back!
