I have the best intentions. I painstakingly peruse the card racks. I buy cards — thank you note cards, birthday cards, thinking of you cards. I write the notes in my head. Usually, the perfect sentiments come to me in uber convenient places like the shower or driving to the office. Or that minute of quiet post-bedtime-story when the Bug and I are snuggled up, talking about her day.
So the cards get stashed in a drawer until I get a minute to rummage around and find them again, write the perfect note, address it and walk it to the post office.
Guess how often those cards just end up getting stashed?
Enter Red Stamp. A simple iPhone/iPad app that lets you pen the perfect sentiment in a stunning modern e-card, complete with your own digital photo. You can send the card as an email, text message, facebook message or tweet. Or you can have a printed post card mailed for $1.99. Love is an understatement.
Here are a few designs I just adore:
Did I mention the app is a free download? Yepp. Swoon.
I think this may be how we send our postcards from vacation this summer…
Hi Heather
Thank you so much for posting about this app! I have it on my iPhone but I had never used it. I just sent a card to my in-laws and it was so easy peasy to use.
I love it.

Thanks for the nice write-up, Heather! So fun to read because making it easier to make relationships stronger is what we are ALL about at Red Stamp. And, as a fellow mom, finding an easy but meaningful way to send on-the-fly notes and thank you’s to family + friends was the main inspiration for the app. Always feel free to reach out with any questions, comments, etc. Again, thank you for using + supporting the Red Stamp app! We really appreciate it.
