"When it comes to greeting cards, it sometimes seems as if the industry
is tilted towards pastel-and-Precious Moments-loving ladies. Like
grandmas. Or your ex. But what about us snarky, sarcastic guys who don't
drop a glittery "Inspirational Thoughts" card in the mail every few
weeks? (Sorry Nana.)
We might just start remembering birthdays now that we got a sample of
Handsome Devil Press greeting cards. They're smart, stylish, and hip
enough for your gay pals AND your cool straight relatives. Boyfriends
and business partners Jason
O'Malley and J.R. Craigmile had the idea to do chic, sexy-but-classy
cards with a gay, sophisticated sensibility, and it's paid off. The
cards have taken off in Europe, New York, and, as we speak, the rest of
the USA.
Whether you want to send love to gay grooms, your cool mom, little sis
or even the cute boy you've been eyeing at the bookstore, Handsome Devil
Press has a selection that'll make you seem cooler than you are. Browse
the selection at handsomedevilpress.com."

"When only Pitcher/Catcher
cards will do, Handsome Devil Press holiday cards make the holidays a
little sexier." The

"Ahhh yea, you should see me in a card store, staring dumbfounded at the
overwhelming selection of greetings and salutations. Sensory overload
hits my brain and the panic button starts flashing, smoke coming out of
my ears like a mother fucker. Too hard, too soft, stupid message, no
message, too much glitter, too sexy, too fucked up, too much glitter,
foo foo, cute, and so on and so forth. Those who know me know I usually
default to odd, strange, or weird and well, there are occasions when
that just won’t do. So, I’m loving these Handsome Devil Press Cards,
free of the usual guy card clichés and kind of hot in a wholesome way,
HDP updates the predictable genre of men’s cards with a fresh and sexy
take on masculinity. Heck, I’m a sucker for these super cute designs,
free shipping, and you got to love a card company named after a
semi-obscure Smith’s B-Side." jockohomo.com

"So many cool choices, it's hard to pick a favorite. And they're not
just pretty to look at, they're totally yummy, high-end cards that you
will love to send out to all your totally yummy, high-end friends. I
guess it's no surprise that a company named from Morrissey lyrics would
be this cool." designmom.blogspot.com
