Testimonials from our Trade Customers

"We've found that customers see, in the animals on Karen's cards, either their own pets or pets of friends. She's really captured the life and soul of the animals and that comes across when the customers bring the cards to the counter. The feedback we get is never anything but positive.

Our customers have been very happy with Karen's cards in a way that you will see when you stock them yourself.
As a farm shop owner you probably get a good thirty firms a year with generic wildlife cards, saying that their set-up would be perfect for your shop. Karen Phillips' cards are perfect for your shop."

Graham Ryan, The Harvest Store Farm Shop

"We have been a stockist of Karen Phillips cards since she launched them. We have found the quality of the cards excellent and we know some of our customers have framed the larger cards especially.  Karen is very good at keeping in contact with us and inviting feedback on her designs which she often takes on board.  The service levels have always been more than acceptable with stock often being delivered within a couple of days.  We look forward to a long and fruitful trading relationship with Karen. "

Alison Carthy,  Partner, Bryn Hall
