A cheeky card for friends who welcome themselves with style.

This card reads “If you tell me to ‘make myself at home’, be prepared for me to take off my bra, drink your wine and yell at your kids.”, perfect for gifting to close friends with a sense of humour who enjoy playful, bold messages. Ideal for housewarming, birthdays, or just-for-fun occasions.

Blackwell Press Cards celebrate the beauty of slowing down in a world that moves too fast. Born from a date night conversation between Millie and Adam Blackwell, the brand was created from a simple realisation that cards mean more because they take time, effort and intention. While digital messages are instant and effortless, a handwritten card carries weight and sincerity that technology cannot replicate.

Working from their hometown of Greytown, Millie and Adam built Blackwell Press on old school values, local craftsmanship and genuine connection. Their cards are proudly designed and made in New Zealand, with artwork by their close friend Paul and heartfelt words penned mostly by Adam. Every card is printed on recyclable stock by Lamb Peters Print, then wrapped in a compostable sleeve and paired with a recyclable envelope sourced locally. What began as a small idea is now a family business employing local staff and sending beautifully made cards across Aotearoa for Kiwis to share with the people they treasure.
