Coming soon: new greetings cards collection

Posted by Kim Haskins on

A brand new collection of glossy greetings cards featuring my paintings has just been launched at the 2017 Spring Fair in Birmingham, UK. The range includes some fluffy favourites as 'Plum' and 'Purrenting' and is published by TomCat Cards. So far I know they'll be for sale online and in shops in the UK, USA, Australia, Canada, Finland, France and The Netherlands, but I hope to have more information about stockists soon. I will also be stocking some of the cards on this website too! For trade and stockist enquiries, please contact tomcat@tomcatcards.co.uk or call +44 (0)1243 837300.
