The text reads:
What is a Dad?
A feeder, a changer, a safeguard from danger
A stubbly snorer, an offspring adorer
A sandcastle digger, a tree-house rigger
A planner & wisher, a wasp & bug squisher.
A hider & seeker, a natural competer
A storybook reader, a motorway speeder
A great fire lighter & ‘dad joke’ reciter
A cuddly tickler, rarely a stickler.
A room decorator, a shopping trip hater
A spider remover, allergic to hoover
A butler & porter, a coach & supporter
A sticker, a tricker & ball-loving kicker.
A tutor, commuter & whiz with computer
A batsman & bowler, financial controller
A gadget admirer, a BBQ firer
A lender, a mender, a knightly defender.
A grower, a mower, an everything knower
A bottle uncorker, a supper-time talker
A firework banger, a wallpaper hanger
A game inventor, role model & mentor.
A bin putter-outer & sometimes a shouter
A free taxi driver, a slipper of fiver
A party enhancer, embarrassing dancer
A contest decider, a lecture provider (line 24)
A terrible teaser & all round good geezer
A giver-awayer & grandchildren player... (line 26)
That’s what makes a Dad!

Babies Card
£2.99
New baby card featuring lots of fun and heartfelt quotes about babies.
Celebrate the birth of a new arrival with this striking black and red design (great for those that want to send something a little different to the usual pink for girls, blue for boys). This typographic birthday card features fun and heartfelt phrases such as...
A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for. The worst feature of a new baby is its mother's singing. Even when freshly washed and relieved of all obvious confections, children tend to be sticky.
The word 'Babies' is highlighted in red. It comes with a matching white envelope and sealed inside a cellophane bag. Posted in a rigid envelope.
This typographic new baby card is left blank inside for your own words.
The artwork is printed onto highest quality G.F. Smith Accent Antique Eco White recycled paper. Dimensions: 15cm x 15cm.

Best Mum Award Poem Print
£14.00
Our brand new mum poem takes the form of the results of The Best Mum Award. And the winner is... your mum!
This witty and joyful A4 mum print makes the perfect gift for birthdays, Christmas, and Mother's Day. It's also a unique way to tell your mum just how fantastic and appreciated she is.
The poem is actually a 14 line sonnet. It was written by award-winning Bespoke Verse poet (and Oxford graduate!) Joanna Miller, whose framed poems have featured in magazines such as 'VOGUE' and 'Easy Living'.
Whether it's for good advice, selflessness and loyalty, or for generosity, every mother deserves an award.
The wording of the poem is:
Seeking out the perfect mum has been our judges’ quest
Of all the many finalists just one has proved the best.
The lady that we have in mind is generous and nice
She’s talented at listening and giving good advice.
She’s considerate and loving, she’s funny and she’s kind
She worries for her family but she also knows her mind.
Beautiful outside and in, she’s cherished and adored
And on a daily basis she deserves a big award.
In tidying and washing, in ironing and dinner,
In selflessness and loyalty this mum’s a worthy winner.
Thoughtful and hardworking, she is held in such affection
The panel were unanimous in making their selection.
We’re happy to announce today the crown is going to...
The best mum in the widest world and that, of course, is you!
