Cumbrian Postcards

So my Cumbrian postcards are now on sale all over Cumbria and are being really well received.  I totally love the range and am so happy to see my work going into lots of lovely shops and big stores!  We are again getting a lot of competition it seems there are new businesses jumping on the regional card wagon every week.  We have been doing this for 3 years now and have a loyal following of lovely stores and customers so our new strap line is "the original and the best"!  Good design will see us through!

Wot Fettle?? Postcards and Blogs

I've been getting lots of love for my new Cumbrian Card range which has been picked up by one large very influential business in Cumbria and by several lovely boutique independent stores.  The locals love the range too with lots of lovely emails and tweets about sayings.  I'm just finishing a range of postcards which are going to print later this month.

Its always nice to get a mention on a lovely blog so we (myself and Jane my biz partner) were delighted when we interviewed by Hannah from My First House.  It was almost like being stars - well without the makeup, autographs and after show alcohol!  Thanks for the post Hannah - it can be read by clicking here MYFIRSTHOUSE  

Blaydon Races 2013

Our new Blaydon races merchandise has just gone on sale - we've got a lush tea towel which is only £5 INCL P&P (bargain) an a mug for £6.99 + P&P.  This year the artwork celebrates the annual Blaydon Race - running event - the event takes place on 9th June from the centre of Newcastle along the Scotswood Road to Blaydon!  Its always great to go and watch so if your up in Newcastle at this time go and see!

New Card Designs

 

Been busy lately - got a whole new product range coming out for the summer and 18 new card designs for all my different regions due in the shops next week.  Heres the new Baby Liver Bird cards for Liverpool! Will show more of the new ones when I get a mo!

Blog Feature Stylenest

OOOOh my cards got a mention in a very stylish blog this week - eeeh how fab. Click on the image to visit the blog!  The story about the baby headbutting did make me wince a little! Kids are dangerous creatures sometimes!  Working on our new Geordie range - just waiting for the first production samples eeeeeeeeh! 

Wot Fettle??

YAY!! My new range has just gone on sale today for Cumbria its called WOT FETTLE and currently is a range of all occasion greeting cards and a couple of mugs.  Its already been shown to a few customers who love it and now can order it.  Very happy - I love Cumbria and the Lake District so this will be a great excuse to go up there and see how its doing.  Their dialect is fab - I love dogs and love the fact they call dogs - JEWKELS! Very funny.

Mug Gate

AAArrrggghhh our mug supplier decided to stop manufacturing the mugs we have been using (unless we bought 8 billion from them) so we have had several weeks of what we refer to as "Mug Gate".  Finally after lots of emails, phonecalls, wasted sampling fees we have now sorted out "Mug Gate" and have just ordered our first bulk order as had completely ran out of mugs!!  The designs work even better as they are printed from top to bottom - they look really fresh.  Phew! They are due to hit the shops next week.  Copy cats beware we are going to kick your ass with our new products! wwwhahahahaha! #strokesbigwhitecat
