Pretty Special Christmas Cards Competition


Hello All,

So it's nearly THAT time of year again. We've already had some requests for Christmas cards, and rest assured our new range for Christmas will be released early October, the very earliest we can bring ourselves to do it!

In the mean time we are offering someone the chance to have 30 Christmas Cards created especially for them, printed (on recycled card of course!) with their very own Christmas card idea… for FREE!

Our Pretty Special Christmas Card competition (Try and say that fast!) is open from the 1st of October… we'd like you to create one to three separate designs for your very own set of cards. They can be funny or cute, whatever you like, as long as they'll make someone smile and bring that Christmas cheer! You can submit your design as a written idea or a sketch, whatever you prefer. We'll take the design and get it illustrated and beautified, and create your own pretty special family crest for the back, just to make it extra personal.

A big 'Thank You!' goes to Laura who writes one of our favourite blogs, arewenearlythereyetmummy.com, who'll be helping us judge the finalists to make sure we get a stupendous winner.

We'll be accepting submissions until the 5th of November 2011, plenty of time to get those creative juices flowing! Please send your entries to info@prettyspecialcards.co.uk with the title 'Christmas Comp'.

Good Luck, we cant wait to see your designs : )

Pretty Special go to Camp Bestival!

Well what a beautiful weekend it was at Camp Bestival, at Lulworth Castle in Dorest. This super friendly occasion is great for kids and adults alike, with a fun and colourful site with loads to do. Check out our pictures... and the fab video of the fairytale fireworks which blew our tiny minds! Inspired and ready to work now, but we'll see you at Camp Bestival 2012



Happy Birthday!! The Lost and Found Brigade sing fly me to the moon, for a very special little girls first birthday!

Checking out the guitars back stage...

Last band of the weekend... I will never get bored of seeing screamadelica live!

Beardyman treats us to a beautiful view over the festival crowd! And gives the kids something to dance to...

Childrens tug of war with Lost & Found... the boys were the ultimate winners (this time round)!

NO MORE SOCKS!

Well, we're finally heading toward a live point on PSC - we've been working sooo hard to get everything together so we hope you  like it... We have some great special offers for you so please keep an eye out, and whats more, if you are an independent artist who is looking to find a place to sell their work, do let us know. We'd absolutely love to build up a great selection of external artists who can showcase their work and have it ethically produced and sold!

Speak very very soon, P.S. Cards x

Out to Launch!

Well we're not far off now.. Having a ridiculous time attempting to build a webshop, and it's no where near as fun as fun as our other illustration and design work! Tomorrow is to be a free day for artwork as technical glitches and learning curves are delaying us somewhat today!! And we're gagging to get some drawing done!
