The other card

Horse Cards Parade

An ex jockey friend of mine, Dave Papworth, and I, have recently created a set of six A4 folded to A5 greetings cards based on the expressions and phrases used in the racing and horse breeding industry and adding a surreal visual twist. The inside is blank for you to add your own message. They can be bought from the Horse Racing museum, The Newmarket Tourist Office, Gibson's the Saddlers, The Ellesmere Centre and other newsagents, where each card retails for £2.99. They can also be ordered direct by emailing me at dawinchy@btinternet.com or ringing 01638 730077. Hope you like them! ( the one at the bottom's caption is "SHE JUST BLEW UP TWO OUT!" – I don't know why it doesn't show up on the posting!)
