About Custom Handmade Greeting Cards
A Card with Heart
Every card I make is dil se (from the heart) – no shortcuts, just my hands, some mess, and a whole lot of pyaar (love). Paper-crafting isn't just a job for me, it's how I connect with people and their stories. I run this handmade card business solo, so each card really gets all my attention.
Why Handmade?
These aren't just cards – they're keepsakes. I want my art to help you say something real, not just tick a box. If you want a custom festival card design for Diwali, a hand-painted birthday card for your bestie, or even an interactive pop-up anniversary card, I’ve made them all. Give me your wildest theme, your oddest colour combo, or a memory you want to capture – I'll try my best to make it happen.

How I Craft
I use good quality papers, stamps, and inks so your card feels special and lasts. Sometimes I’ll get a bit obsessed with details – watercolouring, hand-painting, even heat embossing for that fancy shine. Interactive bits? Haanji, I love making cards with a surprise spin or pop.
Aapka support (your support) means the world to me. If you want something personal, not perfect, I’m here.

My Story
Hi, I’m Swati. Mera safar (my journey) started in 2014 with art, juggling a corporate job and my passion. 2019 mein, I quit my job, shifted to Hyderabad with my husband. Kya planning thi? Bilkul nahi (Was there planning? Not at all). But by December, sales matched my old salary. COVID ne sab bandh kar diya (COVID shut everything), but I bounced back. Now, I make more than greeting cards—homeware, candles, all handmade. Yeh business mera khud ka kahani hai (this business is my own story), and I’m living it every day.
