Sending a card doesn't always have to be cheery and positive, sometimes it's okay to admit that things are a wee bit pish. It's messages of support that can get us all through the tougher times in life.
Know someone who's having a tough time? Reach out and let them know you’re thinking about them with this beautifully unique Hiya Pal card.
These sustainable greetings cards are crafted from FSC certified embossed card and feature tartan offcuts sourced from a kiltmaker in Edinburgh.
Hiya Pal cards are all about celebrating our Scottish words and original sense of humour. Scottish banter wi’ a wee touch o’ tartan!
“Hiya Pal began in 2013 when I made my husband a Valentine's card. Aye, I know, boak. It's not as romantic as it sounds though, the card had a tartan heart on it, but it also had the word 'bawheid'.
All our pals loved it (my husband understandably less so), so I came up with some more designs, got myself a website and here I am 5 years later, still doing it.
I have a degree from Glasgow School of Art in visual communication and enjoy working on some graphic design jobs for various clients I've built up over the last couple of years, as well as starting up a new venture to explore some more papercut typography projects.
Other need to know facts: I prefer choccy digestives to teacakes, margaritas to whisky and fanta to irn bru...but I promise I am Scottish! You can find out more (probably too much) if you follow me on Instagram.”
