Long ago, in a world without email, e-vites and instant messaging—before a few hurried lines of type zapped through cyberspace became a socially acceptable way to express deep sentiment—people sent cards. Tangible, ink and paper cards that could be displayed on a mantelpiece or fridge before getting tucked away somewhere special to mark a moment in time.

In this spirit, Haute Note is a modern take on the centuries-old tradition of personalized social stationery, offering elegant cards that reflect the distinct taste and style of the sender. But don't let the term "social stationery" fool you. Our cards aren't just for ladies who lunch. They're for anyone with an eye for design and a love of letters.

Because despite the current obsession with electronic communication, we believe that some messages still deserve special delivery—and for these we'll take a mailbox over an inbox any day.

Haute Note products draw on a broad range of themes and colour palettes and showcase original artwork by a variety of talented international designers. Cards and envelopes are designed and printed in Canada, on 100lb. textured stock, and packaged in Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified paper (www.fsc.org).

With over 100 designs to choose from, we know you'll find just the right way to express yourself. Our cards make the perfect gift, announcement, invitation or little indulgence for you and others!

Signature Cards
Distinctive in their long, lean shape, our Signature Cards are perfect for stashing goodies like photographs, tickets and cheques, and feature a special "display-friendly" back-flap.

Signature Cards are grouped in sets of four themed designs. Choose a single design or, for those that can't decide, mix + match two cards of each design in the series.

NEW Classic Notes
Our Classic Notes combine a traditional shape with the clean modern look and design you've come to expect from Haute Note.

Not just a pretty face - these are cards with a conscience. Manufactured using wind power, boasting 30% post consumer waste, and beautifully packaged in the same FSC certified material as our Signature Cards - you can feel good about giving (or keeping) our Classic Notes. And yes, they do fit a photograph.
