  1. There are many talented artists and designers who showcase their unique works on the site, so you'll find things there that you won't see at your local stores. 
  2. Many of the products there are personalizable or customizable.  Personalizing, where available is fill-in-the-blank easy.  See photo of magnet, above for an example or an easily personalized product.  Customizing takes a little more work and patience, but can be worth it.

Hot Mamas and Grandmas

If you'd like to find something a little less tratitional for Mom or Grandmom this Mother's Day, have a look at the "1 Hot Mama" and "1 Hot Grandma" line of products at Tropicards. You'll find them by following the MOTHER'S DAY link there.




Shown above are four examples from the "1 Hot" line: mousepad, refrigerator magnet, budget tote, and casual scoop neck T shirt. The tote bag and shirt are available in a selection of colors and styles. Other items available include mugs, keychains, barbeque aprons, and, of course, matching cards.
The 1 Hot mother's day cards look for all the world like an ordinary traditional Mother's Day card on the outside, BUT upon opening, she'll find the "1 Hot" graphic inside.

If you're one of those 7 out of 10 Americans who are feeling that your government has stopped listening to you... has forgotten that THEY work for US, then you (or someone you know) might be interested in something from a design line called You Work for US that says exactly that. The line includes hats, shirts, mugs, mouse pads, magnets, buttons, and more. Here are photos of a couple of them:
