Made for Good
About Mainely Cards & Wicked Good Cards.
A Simple Belief
We believe simple acts of kindness can make a meaningful difference. One of our favorites is giving someone a handcrafted greeting card.
A greeting card tells someone they are being thought of, that they matter. Cards give us a place to put into words things we don't always say, like how much another person means to us, how proud we are of them, how grateful we are, that we miss them, or that we're thinking of them during a difficult time.
For many people, giving a greeting card is a simple way to reach out and connect with someone. For others, it isn't so simple.
Buying a greeting card can become difficult when illness, mobility challenges, financial strain, or other circumstances get in the way. In care settings, going to a store simply isn’t possible. But people still have moments to celebrate, gratitude to express, encouragement to offer, and messages they want to share.
So, we set out to make sure people in care communities have free access to handmade greeting cards they can give to someone they care about.
Two Organizations. One Mission.
Wicked Good Cards
In 2025, we founded Wicked Good Cards™, a 501(c)(3) public charity that makes handmade greeting cards available at no cost within care communities. Donated cards are placed with nonprofit care and community organizations in Maine, where patients, residents, family members, caregivers, volunteers, staff, and others within those communities can choose a handmade card at no cost, write a personal message, and give it to someone they care about.
Mainely Cards LLC
In 2026, we created Mainely Cards, a paper art studio in Southern Maine creating dimensional greeting cards, Cardcrafting™ Kits, and Cardcrafting™ Workshops. We created the studio as a sustainable way to support the mission while expanding our work with original paper art.
