Humour: Ladies Who Love Life and Men Who Love Life from Berni Parker
“It’s the comedic value. The gentle humour reflects on enjoying the good things in life. We also offer the mugs, coasters and stationery, which complement the cards.”
Photographic: General from Glebe Cottage/The Eco-Friendly Card Co
“Eco-friendly cards with terrific photographic images of nature and animals; and good blank cards for sending a little note.”
Photographic: General from Country Matters
“A homewares company with a lovely photographic range of rural scenes – many shot by Villager Jim – of Labradors and hunting dogs.”
Art: General from Waggydogz
“The artist/publisher offers a very wide range of specific dog breeds in the range, that, combined with the mugs, are perfect as a gift.”
Art: General from Hart Deco
“A lovely artist who paints cats (who are named on the cards) and attractive café images among others.”
Contemporary: General from Nauticalia
“A gift company that offers a card range (and key-rings featuring ship paraphernalia) that are nautical themed, such as fishing or sailing. They’re very good male cards, and, as we are located on a harbour, are themed nicely for us.”
Children’s: Characters from Twizler
“A good selection of children’s age cards that are sensibly priced, as currently people are very price conscious.”
