The Pop’n’Rock and Swing cards put it in the winning groove thanks to four-colour cards with spot sealer varnish and little tolerance in die-cutting. Sherwood also had the right moves for cards for Art File and Nigel Quiney Publications, as well as a conference menu for the Greeting Card Association. “A diverse range of samples with impressive details,” said the judges.
Highly commended

Loxleys almost stole the show this year with samples for the Hello Neon, Orion and Umami greeting card ranges and an invite for RETA. “The foiling complemented eye-catching designs,” said judges of work from the Sheffield company, founded in 1854.
