New! – Shirley Veater Designs

I’ve been busy designing some new cards for Christmas and I’m so excited to let you know that we’ve just put them up on the website.

There’s Rottingdean and Saltdean with Santa taking a look around these Christmas-ready villages.

Then there are two new Brighton designs. There’s a slightly different view of the Pavilion. On the front we see Father Christmas and his reindeer looking into a window with the Pavilion behind them, but on the back you see they are now inside, looking out at us! Lovely and warm, with wine and pud to hand.

Finally, and possibly my favourite, is Father Christmas negotiating the roadworks in the Old Steine as Valley Gardens gets not only the planned council works, but also decorated for the season with help from the reindeer. As Santa says, “I Dig Christmas!”

I have worked really hard to keep my prices the same as last year, and they include postage so no nasty surprises at checkout!

If you want to see them and buy locally from traders in and around Brighton & Hove you can get my cards from: Malarkey in Bond Street, Kerfuffle in St George’s Road, Kemp Town, City Books on Western Road, Hove, The Open Art Gallery in Rottingdean, The Post Office in Rottingdean and Saltdean Post Office on Longridge Avenue.

Wishing you a very Happy Christmas – a bit ahead of time, but it’ll be here before you know it!
