Made by Shannon

Here is a lovely selection of cards from Made by Shannon...

This greeting card publishers is run by a lovely lady called Shannon and they are based in Surrey. The below card is printed on our CRUSH Grape 250gsm

Above is a more detailed image and hopefully you can see the small specs and inclusions in the paper. Crush is made partly using the residue from the industrial processing of agro-industrial "end of life" products replacing up to 15% of conventional tree pulp. The 15% process residues are combined with 40% recycled fibres (post consumer waste) and the remainder is FSC virgin pulp and the product is FSC certified. The range is produced using green energy and is carbon balanced at the mill gate (we can also supply the paper in the UK, certified as carbon balanced)

The A6 cards are printed and hot foil blocked in-house, where they have letterpress and a 1980's hot foil blocker which is used on cards and envelopes. However, they also sometimes just hand apply gold leaf as you can in the small embellishment below.

The above SIXTEEN TODAY card is printed on our Colorset Storm 270gsm. The beautifully hot foiled envelopes are made using Colorset Storm 120gsm.

...which also have a superb embossing on the flap:

At this time of year, personalised Christmas cards are in great demand and below is an example printed on our CRUSH Kiwi 250gsm.

New cards on a new paper!

I'm very happy to introduce this new range of age cards by the lovely Made by Shannon, which also happen to be printed on a brand new paper range!

Made by Shannon is a greeting card publisher run by Shannon and based in Surrey. This new selection of age cards are just simply, but beautifully, hot foil blocked on their own 1980's vintage foiling machines. They are C6 (148x105mm) size.

The cards are printed on our new Inclusion, Coffee 250gsm, which as you can see is a visually interesting paper...

Inclusion, Coffee is a new range which is made using 100% Recycled, post consumer waste, with the addition of 5% residues from coffee processing, the resulting effect is really unusual.

Thank you to Shannon for sending this new card and if you would like to see their range of cards and gifts, you can see them HERE.

Inclusion Coffee is available in 100, 120 and 250gsm and if you would like some samples, just drop me an email: justin@fennerpaper.co.uk
