I’m excited to announce that we are reaching the final stages of launching a gorgeous new birthday collection ‘Flora Pop’. The all important proofs arrived yesterday, and after checking over the artwork for the umpteenth time, we now have a print date for next week.
The eye-catching range incorporates lots of coloured foil and deep emboss detail on the decorative birds and flowers, so this should be one exciting collection!
Please contact us to request a 2012 catalogue.
Following weeks (if not months) of hard work, we are on the final leg of finishing our NEW female birthday card collection Flora Pop. Bursting with pretty blossom, silhouette birds cages, cute and colourful birds adorned with decorative pattern. The 12 designs are finished with candy popping foil and emboss detail, which will really bring the design to life.
We are currently adding the Flora Pop collection to our catalogue, however please contact us if you would like to receive a copy. The stunning collection is due to launch later this month.
What a crazy, busy few weeks we’ve had. I’m pleased to say that Rosanna Rossi has moved to a brand new studio. It’s a beautiful, bright space with designated packing, office and design areas. This is great news as it also means we have a ‘creative space’ for designing and an inspiration mood wall.
Alongside our big move, we have been working hard designing our fabulous NEW female birthday collection titled ‘Flora Pop’. A beautiful and feminine collection of 6 female related and 6 general birthday titles ready to launch in April. Filippa and I are really excited about this collection, with its candy popping colours and beautifully illustrated designs.

Filippa and I visited London last Friday to gather lots of inspiration for our forthcoming greeting cards collection. I’m sure i’ve mentioned before that we love window shopping and simply browsing around beautiful, quirky shops along the back streets of London. Including interior shops, haberdasheries and of course, Liberty London.
We noticed a ‘tea-party’ theme with lots of cute cupcakes, tea pots and pretty ceramics. This complements our ‘Sweet Indugence’ range perfect, with an array of scrumptious treats and decorative cakes. After all, this is the year of celebration with the Olympics and the Queens Jubilee.
Following months of initial sketching, painting, designing and retouching, Filippa and I are very near to completing artwork for our 2013 Spring greeting card range. Alongside this, we are also making good progress with our first ever male birthday card collection. Very exciting!
We have discussed so many finishing options that would best complement our designs, and after hours of meetings with the printers, we’re delighted with our final decision. I now need to go back over our 12 designs to highlight areas for added sparkle and glitter.
Although the Spring range will not be on the shelves until January 2013, our agents and international distributors are requesting samples within the next few months, so timing is key.
Good luck to all the ladies who are planning to propose to their loved ones today. Happy LEAP Year!

* Did you know….The Egyptians were the first to come up with the idea of adding a leap day once every four years to keep the calendar in sync with the solar year. Later, the Romans adopted this solution for their calendar, and they became the first to designate February 29 as the leap day.
My co-business partner (and mother) Filippa is very talented artist. My sister and i grew up surrounded by a gallery of paintings, and since my father is also an artist, you can just imagine how creative it can get around here!
Alongside designing greeting cards, Filippa spends her weekends creating these amazing artworks on canvas. I often depict aspects of her artwork for our greeting card collections, which add an element of character and quirky style to our work.
Filippa and i are traveling to London on Thursday to gather inspiration for our new card collections, and to also visit David Hockney’s ‘A Bigger Picture‘ exhibition held at the Royal Academy of Art. It looks fantastic, and i know Filippa will be hugely inspired!
