About ratbone skinny + the oddball club

Q: What in the world is Ratbone Skinny Paper? A: Glad you asked! Ratbone Skinny is a Palm Desert-based company that creates weird & witty greeting cards. All cards feature one-of-a-kind illustrations that are hand drawn & digitally printed on awesome paper. Ratbone Skinny designs cards that excite & make you giggle--cards that the world needs most. Q:What does "Ratbone Skinny" mean? A: According to Monica Ditsworth, the woman behind the magic whose heart & soul appears on each & every card, "Ratbone Skinny is a conversation I had over beers & burritos with some college girlfriends about getting just skinny enough to fit into the new outfit I bought for an upcoming theme party. After that last beer, I worked my buns off & looked awesome at that party- so much so that my ex talked to me & his new hook-up was jealous. This translates to business perfectly because Ratbone Skinny is sort of a metaphor for me for working hard to obtain a goal that sounds lofty & out of reach. In the end not too much has changed from college. I still love burritos & I’ve replaced beer with wine or soy chai lattes & the lame goal of getting “skinny” with taking on the world with my greeting cards!" Q: What is your favorite animal? A: Lazy house cat b/c lounging in the sun, naps, eating and snuggles from a select few favorite people seem to be the best things in life.Read their story
