Lady Ray's Partners with The SOTE Life to Bring Greeting Cards Featuring Original Hand-Painted Artwork to Its Expanding Lifestyle Brand
Destin, FL - April 27, 2026 - Lady Ray's has announced a new partnership with The SOTE Life, bringing a curated collection of hand-painted greeting and birthday cards into its expanding lifestyle brand.
Known for artwork that reflects faith, quiet beauty, and the peace found in life's simplest moments, The SOTE Life's designs will now be available across Lady Ray's café, bakery, and tea service environment-creating a seamless extension of the brand's elevated, intentional guest experience.
The collaboration is designed to complement some of Lady Ray's most beloved offerings, including its custom cake division, Bake My Day by Lady Ray, and its signature tea party service. Guests will now have the opportunity to pair custom cakes with thoughtfully selected cards, creating a more complete and meaningful gifting experience for birthdays, celebrations, and special occasions.
"This partnership just made sense from the start," said Tim Vondell, owner of Lady Ray's. "We're always looking for ways to elevate the moments our customers are celebrating. When we connected with The SOTE Life, it was clear their design process and attention to detail aligned perfectly with how we approach everything-from our cakes to our tea service. The quality of their artwork and packaging is exceptional, and it adds a layer of intention and beauty that our guests will feel immediately."
The integration of The SOTE Life's cards into Lady Ray's ecosystem further reflects the brand's commitment to curated, lifestyle-driven experiences-where food, design, and intentional moments come together. From custom cakes paired with cards featuring prints of original hand-painted artwork to tea service enhanced with thoughtfully selected stationery, the collaboration brings a refined sense of detail to every occasion.
"Our tea service has always been about slowing down and enjoying the moment," Vondell added. "These cards naturally fit into that environment. They reflect the same sense of calm, beauty, and intentionality that we want people to experience when they walk through our doors."
The SOTE Life collection can be discovered in-store at Lady Ray's, with select designs thoughtfully paired alongside cake orders and tea party bookings for your next visit. .
