As we won't be able to attend any Christmas Fairs this year due to COVID19 restrictions. we have decided to add some of our origami decorations to the site for your tree decking pleasure. They are based on traditional water bomd designs and are made from vintage and recycled papers. We had added a brand new section to our site and will be adding new variations over the next few weeks.

We have added a new prints section to our website. We've teamed up again with our friend Roger Newbrook and are now able to offer some of his enigmatic Urban Fragments images as limited edition photographic prints. They look lovely and at £30 each, we think they're a bargain too! You can find them over here...

This new card stock is also produced using 100% recycled post consumer waste. It is pH neutral and is both FSC, and Long life certified. Have a little look...

I am very excited to be attending my first Ladder Club seminar
(organised by PG Buzz and the Greeting Card Association) in a couple of weeks time!
The day is especially tailored for new card publishers like me with a chocka block full itinerary of guest speakers from around the world and across the business sector, from agents and distributors to established publishers and retailers. The more I delve into this world, the more I realise there is to learn, but it's worth the effort!
I expect my head will be full to bursting with inspiration and ideas by the end of the day, it's a good job I've got a new pad to write all my notes in! :)

To complement our "Number" range we added a quirky new design twist. The pixelated numbers on front of the Incognito range of birthday cards makes them perfect for any birthday where discretion is the best path. They are also perfect for those times when you can't quite remember how old your frined is, but want to give the impression that you really do.
They are also available to buy NOW at our Etsy shop!
