Cupcakes

The perfect card for those extra special people, because not much beats cupcakes. This Able and Game card was inspired after some cupcakes we cooked up, ours had sprinkles on them like this one, but the icing wasn't all fancy like this card, which is available on Etsy. The count down to the trade shows is really ticking on by, we have not one but two within a two week period. First Design Made Trade, then First in Style at the Life in Style show. It will an exciting time for Able and Game!

We Love Melbourne!

We've had the idea for this card in the works for quite a while now, the only thing that was stopping it going ahead was the trip to zone two I needed to take to get the photographs. Gareth suggested I do one for each end of the line station but that seems like a big time investment after this last trip I took. We have an Able and Game Melbourne range in the works, but I wanted to get this one up and out there to see what people think of it. We will be debuting this card tomorrow at Rose Street in Fitzroy and it is also up on Etsy.

What goes up must come ...

Down! So we had our Up The Duff card and realised it was just right for people who are pregnant, but what about the people who have had the baby? Well they have come down from the duff right? That was our thinking, so we made a Down The Duff card!

In other news you can now get Able and Game A5 prints of our greeting cards. If you want a particular design but as a larger artwork you can frame just purchase the Etsy listing and let us know which design you would like in the message to seller section. I personally think the superfast internet card would look lovely as a framed print in a computer room. Just to remind you of the days of dial up and just how horrid it all was.

Graduating?

Our new Able and Game graduation card is up on Etsy, and it is inspired by the humble bowl of ramen, a bit of a university staple. When I was at uni I loved to have the Indonesian style noodles with the kekap manis inside a bread role. Super tacky and super bad for you but also super cheap. Even though I left uni over 7 years ago I still have a soft spot for a big bowl of ramen noodles, but I think I'm a bit pickier these days and only like certain brands.

Cluck cluck cluck!

We are adding more and more cards to the Able and Game range of new baby/pregnancy cards. This one is well suited to someone who already has a few children, although even one baby only 10 more are needed to make a soccer team. However it will be hard work for the commentator when all the players have the same surname! This card is available on Etsy, along with the other 4 cards for pregnant or recently babied up people.

Up The Duff

We have three new baby/pregnancy cards by Able and Game available in the Etsy shop with more designs to come. This one above is called Up The Duff and is just right for friends or family who have found out they are up the duff!

New Stockist - Rude Health

Able and Game have a new card stockist in Melbourne called Rude Health on 17 Irwell Street in St. Kilda. The shop has just opened and if you look carefully you can see our cards on the back counter. Julia, who runs Rude Health says you can expect to find polka dot fifties dresses, crocheted alien birds, silk high-waisted undies, little red riding hood capes, stripy one-piece pyjamas, paperboy woollen caps and felt lungs in jars in the new shop. Every item is sweatshop-free and made in Australia as well which is surely a reason to go and visit!
