Meet the Mama

Kate started The Noble Paperie in San Diego after two miscarriages and a complicated pregnancy that followed. At the time, there weren't any cards with the right sentiment to honor her experiences, so she went and designed them herself.

Ten years later, Noble Paperie cards have been featured in CNN, The Wall Street Journal, and The Skimm, stocked by Barnes & Noble and Paper Source, and recognized with multiple Louie Awards, the greeting card industry's highest honor. Every card is still designed by Kate, printed locally in Southern California, and made to reach the people who need them most.

Joy, grief, and everything in between — there's a card for that here.

Don't forget the little extra

Our newest sticker designs make the perfect addition to any Mother's Day card. Tuck one in the envelope, add it to a gift, or just brighten her day with something small and thoughtful.

Made by a Mama in California

Every Noble Paperie card is designed by Kate and printed locally in Southern California — because keeping it close to home matters. We partner with local vendors, print on SFI-certified paper using soy-based inks, and package everything in 100% recycled kraft envelopes and recyclable cello sleeves. And it's all fully compostable.

This is our only home, and we want to run a business that takes care of it.
