Classic Cards

Classic Cards has been tucked away in Gopal Ji Ka Rasta, right near the Jaipur G P O and Johri Bazar area. It’s one of those narrow lanes where everything is always moving. We mostly deal with all kinds of invitation cards and paper stuff. People come in when they have a wedding or a big party coming up. The shop is filled with stacks of different designs and samples. It gets a bit crowded in here when a whole family walks in to pick out a card. Johri Bazar is always loud and full of energy, so there is never a quiet moment. We’ve been handling these cards for a long time. It involves a lot of looking at fonts and colors and making sure the names are spelled right. Sometimes the printing machine has a mind of its own, which can be frustrating. We just try to keep up with the orders. It’s a very hands-on kind of place. We don’t have a big fancy showroom, just the workspace and the counters where we show the samples. People around here know us as a local spot for their paper needs. We do a lot of walking back and forth between the storage and the front. It’s hard work, especially during the wedding season when everyone is in a rush. We just take it one day at a time, making sure the cards look okay before they go out. There is always a lot of scrap paper around, but that is just how it is here.
