Creating original and unique funny and rude, and sometimes nice, greeting cards.

I'm Patrick and I'm an old school advertising writer by trade. I used to come up with ideas on a daily basis for all sorts of advertising - TV, radio, posters, press, direct mail.

Now I use these old skills to come up with greeting card ideas to make people laugh or maybe giggle a little. I write the lines, and draw and design the artwork myself.

I get my ideas from all sorts of places: humorous books, TV comedies, funny stuff on the internet, and people wondering aimlessly looking for their avocados in Sainsbury's. Ordinary people are the funniest things.

You won't find many of my designs in the high street as they're highly original and unique. Some cards are funny, some are sarcastic, some are rude, and some are even nice. How lovely!
