Who we are
Pam Sleap, the owner of Cards Only, began her business career by opening “pop-up” Christmas shops, focusing on selling quality gifts, homeware, and books at affordable prices. After several years of running these shops, Pam realised that she wanted a more permanent business and recognised that greeting cards, which were both high in quality while still being well-priced, were one of the most popular items with customers.
In 2000, she began wholesaling $1 retail cards to a large variety of retailers, sourcing the cards from various suppliers and printers. As the business progressed, Pam realised that to continue supplying great designs suitable for the Australian market, Cards Only needed to design and print its own quality product, and it was from this time that the business really took off.
Today, Cards Only is one of the most well-known and respected card and wrapping paper wholesalers in Australia. Cards Only not only continues to supply a great quality product for their customers, but also provides an extremely efficient and prompt delivery service.
To accommodate a growing industry, Cards Only introduced their premium range of greeting cards named Oak Press Designs & Handmade Expressions. These premium ranges have been very well received by retailers and allow customers more choice with the retail price points.
In keeping up with the market trends and at the request of our retailers, Cards Only has expanded the business by introducing an exclusive range of Australian soaps & hand creams under our brand Indigo Bath & Body.
