James Ellis are a greeting card publisher who have been publishing their own ranges of cards since 1997. Based in Bristol, they actually print and make all their cards in the UK (so no horrible carbon footprint to China!). You'll find their ranges of cards in Paperchase, Waitrose, Harrods and John Lewis and all good card shops!
They’ve been manufacturing their 'shakies' cards since 2003 and they have undergone quite a few style changes, but the glitter and confetti (biodegradeable glitter and confetti, of course) shaking around within the card idea has more or less remained the same.
The latest change has been to change the board which form the cards and the window to our Dali range. If you aren't familiar with the Dali range, it is a 'felt-marked' paper with a linear effect and a natural, tactile feel. If you click on the image below, you will be able to see the texture in the paper.

Dali is available in a range of shades and these Christmas cards are produced using Dali, Candido (white) and Dali Rosso (red) 285gsm.
The other thing that is new is that this range is now bagless - meaning that they don't now come in a cellophane bag, reducing plastic waste. The cards are held together with peelable labels, as you can see in the images below...
