When buying a card to celebrate an occasion, the goal is to put a smile on that person’s face whilst letting them know you are thinking of them. Better is inspiring a good laugh between everyone involved, which is exactly what Squidge Face Cards have got down to a science, once again winning them this prestigious accolade. “Cheeky cards for all occasions” is the motto of the Suffolk-based Squidge Face Cards, a greetings card company not afraid to put a twist on every event. But only for those customers brave enough to send a card from its collection… Founded in 2016, Squidge Face offers a range of gag greetings cards to its customers from its spot in Leiston, having built a strong reputation by bringing a unique flair and humour to any occasion worth celebrating with a card. Its range numbering well over a dozen in the different events and themes. Beyond just cards, it provides a range of other accessories, including badges, keyrings, and even stationary. Of course, emblazoned with the usual Squidge Face branded humour that its customers have come to expect. Unlike many of the selections from high street retailers, Squidge Face’s cards forgo the glossy finish for a rougher, matte finish. Cards are A6 size, roughly 4 inches by 6 inches of white card emblazoned with the message or joke for the recipient. The business is also very environmentally conscious; to cut down on wastage, all orders are made to order and delivered in paper bags and 100% recyclable envelopes and packaging. This is a part of its commitment to reduce its use of singleuse plastics and a by-product of another thing that makes it REALLY stand out from its competition. Every one of its cards is completely customisable. Its range, by default, includes a message on the front and is completely blank on the interior, but customers can add a personal message to the inside, personalise the outside, or make something completely custom. There is clear freedom of expression available from Squidge Face. The storefront is predominantly online, operating from a bespoke website and a page on the online retailer Etsy. The business has also fostered a good standing on its Etsy page, having made Greeting Cards Design & Print Business of the Year 2022 Apr22321 “Great card; well made. Fast shipping. Many Thanks.” And finally Katie spicing up her Valentine’s Day with the ‘You’re so lucky to have met me. Just saying.’ card that she and three others were equally impressed with. For the second year in a row, Squidge Face Cards has snatched up this award. Proving once again that its approach to a special occasion through humour and sarcasm still resonates with customers. That same style and flair will continue to translate into success as the years go on. Contact: Yvonne Bloomfield Company: Squidge Face Cards Web Address: www.squidgefacecards.co.uk
