Stationery & Greeting Card Brands you can find at ABS
Berni Parker Designs
Working from her home studio, set in the midst of the idyllic English countryside, Berni Parker has developed a highly successful global business. However, the heart and soul of her company, as well as her inspirations, are still very much centred on a love of life, family, friends and the gentle beauty of rural Worcestershire.
Berni Parker Greetings cards are great sellers in the shop, they are usually very relevant to someone you know and funny too!

Bug Art Greetings Cards
Bug Art’s founder and artist, Jane Crowther studied Illustration Ba(Hons) at Kingston Polytechnic (now Kingston University).
In the early 1990’s, whilst based in North London, Jane designed a small range of greeting cards to supplement her meagre income as an artist, initially selling them at craft fairs alongside her large multi-media paintings. The cards started to sell really well and Jane made the commercial decision to concentrate on her card designs. Bug Art was born.
Beautiful Bug Art Cards are great sellers, they are blank inside and makes them suitable for all occasions.
Anne Cotterill Flower Art
Anne was a modest and retiring person, entirely uninterested in self promotion and never part of any particular movement or group. Her work was always sought after, intitially in her locality and then to a much wider public through word of mouth and personal recommendations. She had many successful exhibitions of her work, including solo exhibitions at Thompson's Galleries, (London and Aldeburgh), the Wykeham Gallery (Stockbridge, Hampshire), the Napier Gallery (Jersey), the City Gallery (London) and the Bellflower Gallery (Devon). Exhibitions of Anne Cotterill's paintings always attracted queues of enthusiastic collectors and demand for her originals far outstripped supply.
Anne's beautiful paintings are sold in the shop on various sized greetings card and are very appropriate for many occasions.
