Easter Card

In about a week Christmas will well and truly be over. It’s a shame that all the preparation that goes into it leads up to just one day but as long as you’ve planned, Christmas should be amazing. The same happens for Easter, which is the next big event that will involve cards and more [...]

The thought does count

When people leave their job (under good terms!) there’s always a leaving card that gets passed around for everyone to sign. I have noticed that on every card the gets passed around whether it be birthday, congratulations or leaving cards, most people write exactly the same things over and over again. I always think it’s [...]

Thank you

It is that time of year again when my social calendar just gets ridiculously booked up in the run up to Christmas! Now I want to make it clear, I am not complaining and I really enjoy having lots of fun social events to go to and catching up with friends and relatives.
It gives me [...]

Loyalty Cards

Looking through my wallet the other day I realised how many ‘loyalty’ cards I had racked up over time.  Many of these from my days as a student, when the student ‘pound’ is seen as something businesses will be falling over themselves to compete for.  Whether I could be classed as a loyal customer to [...]

Handmade cards

Sometimes a card from the local shop isn’t enough to give to your loved one. My friend is very much into making her own cards. Basically it does say that you have put in the effort and it is definitely a card that you want to keep for the memory box along after the event. [...]

Wedding cards

So I just received an invite the other day for one of my best friend’s wedding and it got me thinking about how much preparation goes into the planning of the ’special’ day.  Also the importance of matching stationery is probably lost on a man like myself, and therefore makes it more important that so [...]

Creating a business card is something you need to think very carefully about. Depending on the type of business, industry or work you do, you need to think about all aspects of how people will see your cards. There is a message given out by all advertising and business cards are no different. For a [...]

Draw a blank

Do you ever spend hours trawling through all of the various greetings cards out there looking for a card that says exactly how you feel about the recipient in some sort of whimsical fashion? Do you always find a part of the jargon that’s not quite right or it’s written in a style that makes [...]

Belated Birthday?

I always find that if you miss someone’s birthday, you feel awful. It’s even worse if it’s your birthday and you don’t get a card from someone who you were expecting one from! I am still waiting on a birthday card and present from my best friend and my birthday was three weeks ago. She [...]

Christmas Cards!

The biggest event of the year is upon us, oh yes, it’s Christmaaaaassss!!! I know you are all probably very organised and prepared with your presents wrapped and under the tree, homemade mince pies being eaten and the log fire burning, but have you bought your Christmas cards yet? I haven’t and I was panicked [...]
