Greeting Cards
Branching out and spreading those wings
After many years of working solely for clients, we felt that we still had plenty of ideas for our own work that other people would love to see. So taking pointers from previous award-winning print projects, we've created six new ranges of cards covering many areas in both two and three dimensions. The cards are published and initially will be sold direct to trade via trade shows and sales agents. They're innovative, cheeky, positive, enlightening and fun.
Greeting Cards are destined to become a major part of our repertoire, so watch out for many more ranges in future months - we've already begun designing four more sets covering birthdays, romance, cats and... Diwali!

STOP PRESS: It's our brand new range... and it's totally, totally random!
'Random Chat' is our irreverent look at life today. Whether you feel that the garage of your mind has been roadmapped by an information superhighway meltdown, or you just can't help repeating the same random words over and over again...actually, or simply if you have a pet that has a different take on the word 'gift' - this is the range that truly has it all. Read, enjoy, and be random. Nuff said, yeah?
STOP PRESS: It's our other brand new range... O NO
Sometimes simplicity is a virtue. These are simple cards with a wry message in a simple, clean and crisp design.
Cards measure 14.5 cm square and are on textured high quality matt stock.
Wuff: A series of eight, three-dimensional Cards for dog-lovers and those who simply want to say it with paws. Each card folds flat to a 15cm square with an embossed outline of our dog's head. Open it up however and the pup comes to life in a three dimensional form. These are unusual cards in that they are meant to be left open with the dog facing the recipient along with ample space for that special message. These are cards of the highest pedigree. We love them so much we can't help but pet them.
Brilliant Birthdays - distinctive and very special cards
We sold out of our initial run, and we listened to key players in the industry who said... 'more please!' and now Brilliant Birthdays is a seriously stunning range of 18 cards!
Brilliant Birthdays: A series of eighteen, three-dimensional Birthdays Cards. These really are unique and open up to reveal a three-dimensional birthday wish. The set contains a special card for new-borns in both male and female flavours along with cards for age groups 1, 3, 16, 18, 21, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70. To complete, we also have six non-age-number specific cards - representing a birthday for a girl, a boy, and four for any age. The cards fold to a 15cm square design and are printed on all sides on a celebratory shimmering card stock. Delicious!
Lov3d Up: A series of six, three-dimensional Love Cards. Here's a range of contemporary, slightly cheeky, utterly striking and downright romantic three-dimensional cards. Each card has a 'teaser' cover, and it's only when your loved one opens the card up that it reveals the grandest gesture of your love. We love these cards. You'll love these cards. You love your love. M'wah, m'wah. Well, it would be rude not to!
Feel The Love: A series of sixteen, two-dimensional square cards (15cm). We love our relatives. We have many... and it's often difficult to get contemporary designs for all of them. Well, until now that is. The 'Feel the love' range has a cheeky retro look that still manages to be specific to the relative in mind. There's a card for Mum, Dad, Brother, Sister, Son, Daughter, Gran, Grandad, Niece, Nephew, Husband, Wife, Male Baby, Female Baby, Cousin and to round it off, there's even one for Congratulations! Buy them all and spread the love... Feel the love!
Buzzwords: A series of eight, two-dimensional square cards (15cm). There are five cards for Birthdays, one for You're Leaving, one for an Apology and one for Congratulations. Each card cheekily celebrates the (over)use of meaningless and perfunctory words in the everyday workplace environment. Go on, eulogize those mixed metaphors and become a Buzzword Evangelist!
Seasonal Greetings: A series of eight, two-dimensional landscape oriented Christmas Cards with print outside and in. These are bold and colourful featuring strong graphic symbols of the festive season.
