Why thoughtful givers keep a pop-up card stash — and how you can too

Why keeping greeting cards at home matters more than ever

In today’s busy world, it’s easy to let the little things slide. But the most thoughtful givers know: small gestures create big moments. That’s why keeping a stash of greeting cards — especially pop-up cards — is a simple way to stay connected, even when life gets hectic.

Whether it’s a birthday you almost forgot, a surprise promotion, or a friend going through a tough time, having the right card on hand makes it easy to show up with heart.

What is a card stash — and why should you build one?

A card stash is your secret weapon for thoughtful giving. It’s a collection of cards you keep at home — ready to pull from at any moment. With Lovepop’s handcrafted pop-up cards, that moment becomes a magical one.

Why it works:

• No more last-minute store runs

• You can give a card without needing a gift

• You’re always prepared for life’s little surprises

• You reduce stress, but increase thoughtfulness

Many of our customers tell us they keep their stash in a drawer, a decorative box, or even a photo album for easy access.
