Alice Palace recently launched a new collection of 12 blank greetings cards. They were produced from a series of hand created patterns. The designs are bright and bold and suitable for any occasion. The whole set can be bought for £10 including free delivery (UK) making them perfect for a Thinking of You card and the chance to send out some happy post. All Alice Palace cards are created and printed in England using quality uncoated recycled post-consumer FSC board, FSC envelopes and biodegradable bags.
