Greeting cards, overrated am I, right? You are probably thinking why the creators of a greeting card business are openly saying that. Think about it - A greeting card can be up to $12.00 CAD, which someone will keep for a week, two if you're nice, and then either toss it in the trash or ends up in a box somewhere. This is where we come in. We are MaryAnn and Jose, a wife and husband team that has a passion for the environment and changing the greeting card game!We create paper and cards that are made from 100% recycled material and in our recycling process, we embedded wildflower seeds. This allows our products to be planted, growing non-invasive flowers, making a memory garden, and a zero-waste thoughtful gift.Even if the receiver of our cards doesn't have a green thumb, and decides not to plant it, the fact that our cards are made with recycled materials and love, is worth more than any mass-produced card. Now, the real question is, what was the inspiration behind Seeded Memories?The idea to makeplantablepapery items came at a sad point in our lives, unfortunately. We had a kitten named Bruce who passed away at 6 months old. With heavy hearts, our friends gave us flowers and cards as sympathy, and that lead us to the idea of putting the two together. If we received a card with a heartfelt message in it, and then plant it in memory of Bruce, we would have cherished that garden with our lives.The idea for us is that we want you to plant memorable moments in your life (weddings, birthdays, new babies, celebration of life), and take care of them even after it has passed. Don't throw out or shut our cards in a box, plant them, take care of them, and watch loved messages grow.Happy planting!
