A taster of some of the wonderful newness on show at Spring Fair.
If The Capy Fits “Will you please do a capybara card?” was a request from Caryn, Earlybird Designs’ agent in the Midlands which is how the fascinatingly social capybara ended up inspiring a completely new range, Capy & Co. The range combines characters full of humour, colour, cuteness, and sarcasm. And, in keeping with Earlybird style, the cards pop with neon colours and an embossed spot UV finish. All the cards are printed on ecofriendly 100% recycled 320gsm board. Earlybird Designs 01227765372 www.earlybirddesigns.co.uk Spring Fair stand 3Q35
Fancy Playing Kaleido? Skin In The Game Tattoo style artwork was the inspiration behind Hand and Flowers, a new range from Middle Mouse. There are 24 designs in the range - romantic roses and positive messages with the thorns on the stems included to add a bit of edge - plus two wrap designs. They are printed on FSC-approved luxuriously matt, thick Callisto board and are accompanied by a white envelope. Middle Mouse 07855 959176 www.middlemouse.co.uk Spring Fair stand 3Q39
