Thus they probably will miss a lot of the trendy business that is generated via internet.<br /><br />Tigerprint is a great example!Papierfliegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08006399662058810780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-34023145256661959012011-02-08T13:40:28.121+00:002011-02-08T13:40:28.121+00:00I totally agree Felicity

Bland, not desperately contemporary at all - just boring.<br /><br />I'm going to have a go when the topic appeals to me thoughvivienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16820836660470146799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-25610807465078206462011-02-08T11:10:29.470+00:002011-02-08T11:10:29.470+00:00This is an interesting topic!

Whenever I'm looking for a card I'm usually standing with a lot of other people looking uninspired going over and over them in case I've missed something worth buying. I love M&S but those cards look to me like wallpaper samples - dull, bland, generic etc. Personally I think the manufacturers need to take a few risks, inject some excitement into them. There are some wonderful artists producing great cards but you really have to look hard to find them.Felicity Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11145205761346733464noreply@blogger.com
