My Creations
Posted By: PARALEE MASSIE on March 11, 2024


By day, I am an HR Specialist for the Federal Government. By night, I am working to build my portfolio of pop-up cards for our HBCUs.

Hallmark and American Greetings have taken the greeting card market by storm; buying entire aisles at your nearest grocery store, which leaves little room for small businesses like Cardciety.

My goal is for our HBCUs to use these as marketing materials for recruiting fairs and scholarship announcements. What better way to welcome students into the HBCU fold with a tangible gift that their families can hold onto for years to come.
