Cards that are literally literary works of art!

Edinburgh is a city that breathes stories. Legendary authors like Walter Scott once paced the New Town pavements; a fantastical monument was even erected in his name. Today, we're blessed to have literary talents on our doorstep (quite a few local authors cross our thresholds 👀), and in a city like Edinburgh a fresh narrative waits to be discovered around every corner. At Paper Tiger, we think the best greetings cards act as a prologue to a great celebration, and we have found a range that fits our literary pedigree perfectly.

We recently extended our Storybook collection with The Art File on our shelves. We have always admired their dedication to proper paper quality and original UK design. This range depicts storybook covers, paying homage to the classics with a level of detail that makes them feel like a proper gift in their own right. Whether you are writing to a dragon fan, a historical fiction lover, or just a total legend, these cards and journals offer a sense of theatre that you just cannot find on a standard supermarket shelf!

They are clever, beautiful, and feel substantial. We chose them because they turn the simple act of sending a card into a more meaningful moment - just make sure you write your own story on the inside. They are designed to be kept - on a mantelpiece or used as a bookmark - long after the birthday candles have been blown out.

Pop into our Edinburgh shops to see them for yourself, or have a browse online. It is the perfect excuse for a wander through our storied city.
