Khaos and Ink

I love that I can help people express what they want to say with my sympathy cards. Sometimes, it's just so hard to know what to say.

My cards are sent in recycled paper bags, not plastic.

If you have something to say but don't know how to say it, there is most probably a card that can help you.

Please sign the petition below.

Royal Mail price hikes and reduced services are killing greeting card companies.

First class post is a ridiculous £1.65 where as second class is only 85p.

Why is this? Because second class is capped by inflation but 1st class can be hiked up as much as they like.

Therefore RM are reducing 2nd class postal services to combat this.

The greetings card association has created this petition to try and help small businesses like mine so please take just 30 seconds to add your name to the petition.

It is to protect affordable post for all.

What the petition states:
We call on the Government to amend legislation to require parliamentary scrutiny on any change to the Royal Mail's Universal Service Obligation (USO).

We also call on the Government to: insist any changes to the USO are dependent on Royal Mail meeting existing performance delivery targets for letters and cards; regulate the price of first class mail to avoid further above-inflation rises; and insist Royal Mail maintains a national, affordable, and reliable postal service that supports high streets and communities across the UK.

We call on the Government to amend legislation to require parliamentary scrutiny on any change to the Royal Mail's Universal Service Obligation (USO).

I'm still here!!

I have been working in the background and cards have been flying out through the wedding season.

This has calmed down now and sales are now down unfortunately.

But this has given me time to design a new card, which I haven't done in a long time.

So welcome this new addition to my job birthday cards - Dentists, dental nurses, assistants, receptionists, hygienists, surgeons and the tooth fairy!

This comes in Congratulations (for exams, new jobs, graduation etc) and Happy Birthday.

So BRACE yourself for the celebrations!

Khaos and Ink is not your average greeting card company, come and find something original and sometimes personable.
You are sure to find something that suits and if not give me a shout and I will see what I can do for you.

I like to do cards that you don't find in your normal greetings card store. I'm glad that my card was found and it was just what they were looking for. This was made from a personal experience and I love that I can just do my own card for the occasion. Something not found generally.

If anyone has a specific card that they can't find, I'd be happy to make one. I'm always up for ideas.

Had a lovely few days in Rome with my daughter and sister. We seemed to have chosen the weekend of a pride march which was brilliant to see. A massive party next to the colosseum. It didn't help that we didn't know the roads were shut as we tried to get the bus to the colosseum for seeing it at night.
And don't even ask about the divert to Paris on the way which meant we landed in Rome 4 hours late.
I loved it all though and the 32° helped a little too!
OK where to next?

This card hasn't gone out for a while, so I was happy to send it out today. And on eBay of all places, which is my lesser seen portal for my cards. I guess if you're looking for a card then the go to site is etsy.
This card is available in pink and blue.
There is also a selection of work colleague cards in my store. Make someone smile 😃

**New Design Alert**

Finally finished this nurse birthday card. After coming back to it again and again, not happy with it, changing and rewording it over and over I've decided to stop at this! What do you think? (Even my son laughed at the urine joke!)

I like to think my cards are unique and not the normal boring generic you could buy.

It's also available as a congratulations card for passing exams, a new job, a promotion or even graduation. Buy something a little different.

Getting a degree is an amazing achievement and after all their hard work congratulations is in order!!

I may be biased but I think receiving a personalised card is very special.

These are available in any relation and personalised for any university and degree and students name.

I've had a few of these cards going out and the reviews are coming in.

Available in my etsy, amazon or ebay store.

Personalised cards are very popular and all my wedding, engagement and anniversary cards are unique to that person for that special day.

There is also the option to add a message inside.

Choose a card that is classic and personal to them.

Sent UK first class but please don't leave it til the last minute as post cannot be guaranteed. I do post same day for orders before 5pm (as long as all information has been given) and 9/10 arrive next day. Please order in plenty of time.

How lovely is this that the recipient framed it in their shop! Hairdressers are amazing miracle workers and if you find a good one never let them go!
It's nice to let them know they are appreciated. This card is available for a birthday or a thank you card.

Guess what I've been doing for the past few hours and just want to do more! I watched a reel on here showing how to emboss a heart so I decided to give it a go and will be adding this to my wedding card envelopes. I absolutely love how this simple cut out heart changes the envelope so much. Its very therapeutic to do.
What do you think?

I have not one not two but three hoorahs to celebrate today!!!

⭐️ I have finally been able to change my page name back after 60 days of being some randoms' name. I am over the moon! I may have lost some followers along the way but I hope they will now come back.

⭐️ I've reached 3000 sales on etsy - woohoo!!
⭐️ I've reached over a 1000 sales on amazon, over 60% of that in the last year.
(we wont talk about ebay haha!)

I am really grateful for everyone who follows my business and for all the support. I would appreciate if you could LIKE this post to get me seen again, the amount of people who say they saw my post but don't help me out by giving it a little like that costs you a few seconds of your time but means a huge deal to me.

And if I could be so bold as to ask you to follow my new instagram page (yes this is the only thing I have not got back)
