“First I must say that Meredith is amazing. My card took a little longer than I thought<br />

to arrive and I sent her a message. Her response has quick, sincere, and very kind. She<br />

offered to assist me with my issue in the most professional way; customer service at<br />

its best!<br />

Secondly, the card is absolutely lovely! It looks exactly like the photo. Can't wait to<br />

give it to my mother! I will definitely frequent the <strong>Witty</strong> <strong>Gritty</strong> <strong>Paper</strong> <strong>Co</strong> more.”<br />

Hi there! Pleased to meet you. Our names are Melinda & Meredith<br />

Preve and we co-founded and run the <strong>Witty</strong> <strong>Gritty</strong> <strong>Paper</strong> <strong>Co</strong> from our<br />

old elementary school classrooom turned studio in charming Buffalo,<br />

NY. We create stationery and desk accessories for silver-tongued<br />

optimists.<br />

We believe enthusiastically that connecting through the mail is a<br />

bespoke, irreplacably thoughtful way to forge greater connections<br />

with those all around us -- wether it be your best friend who’s<br />

struggling in a rough patch, your super cool cat sitter’s birthday, or<br />

that neighbor who just baked you the most amazing peach pie. Our<br />

designs are aimed to make you say “it’s like it was taken right out of<br />

my brain!”<br />

Our cards are all a spiffy size A2, and produced using 100%<br />

post-consumer recycled paper and vegetable inks in sunny California.<br />

Every shipment, both retail & wholesale is offsetted by our carbon<br />

offset shipping program -- which is just fancy board room talk for<br />

cleaning up the pollution which is caused by package transport.<br />

WG’s products feature all our original illustrations and observations.<br />

Ordering is fast and easy.<br />

You’ll find our order form<br />

and T+C’s at the end, but if you<br />

have any questions just drop us a<br />

line on wholesale@thewittygrittypaperco.com<br />

or give us a ring on (716) 868-3670.<br />

We’ll be very happy to help!

<strong>The</strong> sizzle of buttermilk pancake batter on the griddle, the flowers from the backyard neatly arranged in a<br />

twinkly, crystal vase, the bright smell of the sweet citrus skin leftover from squeezing the juice fresh, an orange<br />

wax-sealed envelope tucked between the robin’s egg blue plate and her dearest coffee cup, filled to the lip with<br />

a brew that’s an old favorite. <strong>The</strong> eager warmth in your chest at seeing her smile when she rips the card open<br />

and sees what you’ve written to her.<br />

Kraft paper wrapping tied tight with a jolly plaid ribbon, plain and simple but with a dollop of flair, just as he’d like<br />

it, the tightness in your chest at wondering if he’ll love what you picked, the sweet smell of grilled, blueberry muffins<br />

wafting over from the heart of the kitchen, your perfect card pinched tight between your fingers, the ripple of<br />

relief at knowing you’ve got his sense of humor pegged with this one.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hordes of people rise together, a small, sweet tear wells in the corner of your eye, the sateen hats sit crooked<br />

on the heads of the beaming young graduates, speeches ring out with a reverb, some make you cringe, some<br />

make you smile, the curled diplomas sit in a neat triangle shaped stack, their red ribbons bright in the sunlight,<br />

you feel your card press into your side from inside your bag as you applaud, they are going to smile wide when<br />

they see it.<br />

<strong>The</strong> familiar notes of the bridal march filling the room up to the ceiling, the mirror-shine of the open bar,<br />

oversized ribbons on every chair, uncomfortable toasts made with crackling mics, champagne bubbling like a<br />

starry sky, camera flashes, boogie songs from 2007, fondant flowers, the stack of sparkling presents in the center<br />

table, your satisfaction in knowing your card will be the only one the happy couple will keep for years to come.<br />

Cards<br />

<strong>The</strong> sense of loss at thinking of<br />

something hilarious and having<br />

no one to share it with, the excited<br />

jump of your heart when a text<br />

notification chirps out and it<br />

might be them, the ever-present<br />

sigh at their absence, the feeling<br />

that your shih-tzu is getting to<br />

the end of her rope with this you<br />

staying home every Saturday<br />

night thing, the feeling of connection<br />

swelling in your chest as<br />

you imagine them ripping open<br />

that orange envelope and suddenly<br />

feeling whole again, even if for<br />

just a moment.<br />

Rainbow drips of egg dye dot the<br />

counter, the residue from happy<br />

yellow marshmallows keeps<br />

your fingers a bit sticky, little<br />

shreds of translucent green<br />

basket grass trail along the<br />

hallway, you smile, your lips<br />

sweet with chocolate, at the<br />

lovely thought of the faces<br />

you’ll light up today with the<br />

cards you sent..<br />

<strong>The</strong> recurring eye-roll at<br />

yourself, the guilt spinning<br />

into a ball at the back of your<br />

throat, the promise you make<br />

to yourself to do better from<br />

this very moment onward, the<br />

relief pooling at imagining<br />

them opening your orange<br />

envelope and smiling at seeing<br />

proof that you’ve still got that<br />

heart of gold they love about<br />

you.<br />

Empathy aches in your chest, you swallow hard<br />

– this is a raw deal and everyone knows it, your<br />

heart leaps at any way you can help, you feel<br />

just a little better knowing this little orange<br />

envelope will find them, and at least, tell them<br />

how you’re going to show up for them, and at<br />

most, offer a touch of real, meaningful hope<br />

when they need it most.<br />

Pizza & Ice Cream Sympathy Card<br />

WGSY - 001


Cards<br />

Crisp white tulips in a ribbon-wrapped bundle, little mirror-shined chocolates in perfect rows,<br />

margarita pizza on the way, a movie queued up as the sun goes down, your bubble of loving excitement<br />

at envisioning their signature smile spreading across their face when they tear open that little orange<br />

envelope, the soft kiss that awaits you when they finish reading what you’ve written.<br />

down the details and start your day. You glance through your options as the smell of percolating coffee<br />

brings your brain to attention, you could use the back of that cable company envelope you weren’t<br />

going to open anyway, or there’s the notepad from that charity which makes you feel a little bad every<br />

time you see it because you didn’t send them money. Or wait, what about that new one? From <strong>Witty</strong><br />

Our office shipping table; it used to be a classroom, hence the chalkboard<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Witty</strong> <strong>Gritty</strong> <strong>Paper</strong> <strong>Co</strong>. started as a doodle on<br />

the back of a tim hortons napkin (if you’re not<br />

from the northeast, you should totally look them<br />

up,) and since then we’ve made it a yearly tradition<br />

to make our annual business plan on the very<br />

same napkins. Yes, we do in fact get some strange<br />

looks from our accountants. That very first one is<br />

framed and hanging above our desks.<br />

Our co-founder Meredith, has kept every card,<br />

note and letter she’s ever received since the age of<br />

13. You could say she’s passionate about what she<br />

does... that’d be a fair assessment.<br />

Literally all of our bestselling cards have been<br />

born out of real life moments - wether it be the<br />

incredibly persuasive looks our dogs adopt<br />

when someone’s eating a leftover browine over<br />

the sink, or our shared and undying love of<br />

Frasier and <strong>The</strong> Golden Girls.<br />

Viewing some printing proofs of new designs<br />

During the first few years of doing business, we<br />

actually printed, trimmed and scored every single<br />

card by hand, one at a time. So, we are one of the<br />

few businesses that can say the phrase “blood,<br />

sweat and tears” and have it be 100% true. Don’t<br />

worry, we never sent out any of the ones with<br />

blood. As far as we know.

We do not accept traditional returns for unsold<br />

your store for at least 6 months<br />

- All of the items in question are in their<br />

original, unused condition, and still salable. If<br />

itself must not have any defects<br />

- We are not able to switch out more than $50<br />

worth of merchandise at one time<br />

- Stock amnesties will not be granted more<br />

than 2 times to a single store, per calendar year<br />

- Buyer is responsible for paying the shipping<br />

costs to return the items to us, whereas we will<br />

cover the costs of sending out the new items<br />

- <strong>The</strong> batch of items that you want to swap out<br />

has the same value as what you are requesting<br />

to replace it

great retail gravy. Net 30 will be considered by<br />

request at our discretion to vetted accounts.<br />

if 2 consecutive orders are not paid on time. From<br />

one small business to another, thank you very<br />

much for your understanding!<br />

Third-Party Resale:<br />

Buyers are welcome to sell any WG products they<br />

purchase in their brick and mortar store, as well as<br />

on their specific store’s website.<br />

Buyers are not permitted, however, to resell WG<br />

products on any third-party marketplace website,<br />

such as, but not limited to: Amazon, Ebay, Etsy,<br />

etc.<br />

Privacy Policy:<br />

<strong>The</strong> information you provide to us (such as phone<br />

number, address, payment details, email) will be<br />

used exclusively to process your orders and to let<br />

you know about any new releases or sales that we<br />

have going on. We pinky swear we will not share<br />

any of your personal information with any other<br />

party.<br />

<strong>Co</strong>pyright Disclaimer:<br />

All designs, images, logos and trademarks<br />

associated with WG and all of its products and<br />

marketing materials are the exclusive property of<br />

the <strong>Witty</strong> <strong>Gritty</strong> <strong>Paper</strong> <strong>Co</strong>. This copyright is not<br />

transferred with the sale of our goods. We maintain<br />

our right to be identified as the owner of<br />

materials.<br />

Insurance:<br />

All orders are insured for the standard $50 when<br />

they are shipped via USPS Priority mail. All<br />

shipments come with a tracking number. We will<br />

ship orders insured for their full amount by<br />

request. Should it become necessary, we will<br />

pursue any claims with USPS ourselves.<br />

Cancellation Policy:<br />

If you need to cancel your order, please get in<br />

touch with us via email or phone within 12<br />

hours of placement. We try to get orders out<br />

lightning quick, sometimes as soon as the<br />

same business day, so we cannot accept<br />

cancellations after this time frame has passed.<br />

<strong>Co</strong>lor Variances:<br />

Please note that our cards are all offset printed<br />

-which translates to them being very<br />

consistent in color, however due to differences<br />

in browsers and monitor settings, small<br />

variances in color from our website & catalog<br />

to real life are to be expected. In our humble<br />

opinion, these cards look better than ever in<br />

person.<br />

Sales Tax:<br />

If you are located in New York, we are required<br />

to collect a resale certificate from you. A copy<br />

can either be snail mailed to us or sent as an<br />

attachment to an email.<br />

Exclusivity:<br />

We understand that it is a top priority to make<br />

sure that your store retains its unique voice<br />

through the items you offer and that this voice<br />

isn’t as strong if these same items are offered<br />

all up and down your street. Exclusivity will be<br />

granted at our discretion based on multiple<br />

factors such as: area requested, distance<br />

between competing shops, and items<br />

interested in having exclusively. Any shop that<br />

is granted exclusivity will need to agree to a<br />

fixed re-ordering schedule that is renewed on<br />

an annual basis.<br />

Sale Or Return (<strong>Co</strong>nsignment:)<br />

We’re happy to offer you sale or return for a<br />

trial period of three months. After that, we can<br />

either part company or switch to<br />

wholesale-only. This trial period is extended<br />

on a case-by-case basis, based on a number of<br />

factors including store’s location, reputation<br />

and number of similar lines already carried.


Photography:<br />

You are welcome to photograph any WG items<br />

that you have stocked for your shop’s own<br />

personal marketing efforts, however we<br />

humbly request that you credit/tag us as the<br />

maker wherever possible. If you are looking for<br />

some done-for-you marketing materials,<br />

please refer to our Retailer Tool Kit - which is<br />

filled with our high quality images that are free<br />

for your use provided you are an active<br />

stockist. We also fill the tool kit with fun<br />

promotion ideas, email subject lines, and<br />

display ideas from time to time so make sure<br />

you take a look.<br />

A link to the tool kit should have been sent to<br />

you when you joined us, but if you can’t find it<br />

please reach out and we’ll be happy to give you<br />

access!<br />

Good Faith:<br />

We know that small business folk are often the<br />

very best folk, so we just have a few additional<br />

stipulations that we know you would never<br />

think of doing anyway.<br />

- It is the buyer’s responsibility to make sure<br />

WG’s products are not sold in a manner which<br />

may bring our company into disrepute, or<br />

through discount houses.<br />

- Any discounts or promotions that we offer to<br />

our retail audience are not applicable to<br />

wholesale. We do occasionally offer specials for<br />

wholesale, so sign up for our mailing list so<br />

you don’t miss out!<br />

- If you or your shop receives any press<br />

features (congrats!!) and you generously<br />

choose to exhibit some WG items that you have<br />

stocked, please credit us as the maker.<br />

<strong>Co</strong>llaboration:<br />

Great partnerships are the very best, can we<br />

agree? Batman and Robin, Dorothy and Sophia,<br />

Frasier and Niles, the list is endless and it always<br />

ensues in magic! So if you’re cooking up an idea<br />

in that brilliant nogin of yours, like for example,<br />

an exclusive product, a pop-up shop, an in-store<br />

event with bubbly and streamers and the latest<br />

hits causing some of the cupcakes to shake with<br />

the reverb of the bass beats, then by all means,<br />

reach out to us and we’ll see if we’re a perfect fit<br />

for your project!<br />

By placing an order with us, you agree to abide by<br />

and respect the terms laid out here. Thanks so much<br />

for being awesome!<br />

Refusal:<br />

We reserve the right to refuse an order at any<br />

time by our discretion. This gives us a sour<br />

stomach to even think about, but should our<br />

working relationship with a store prove too<br />

difficult or troublesome, by the store making<br />

repeated violations of these stated terms, we<br />

may have to make the tough decision to end the<br />

partnership and refuse any future orders
