About Us


THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT VELVET OLIVE......

Made in Britain. 
We try to keep things green by using FSC board and using local suppliers wherever possible. 
The business was started by Kathryn Fletcher in July 2004. 
Velvet Olive produces design-led greetings cards for the trade and the public. 
We deal with shops of all kinds, from boutiques to dedicated card shops to big chains like Paperchase and John Lewis. 


A BIT ABOUT KATHRYN: 


She detests washing up but loves hoovering. 
When designing, she very rarely moves from one spot for hours at a time, then eats 10 slices of toast and galleons of tea in one hit. 
She loves typography and unusual types of board and paper. 
Furniture, she can spend hours in a junk shop, buy nothing she needs, and then her poor house is filled to the rafters with her odd finds. 
Architecture, she loves, loves, loves beautiful and interesting buildings, old or new. 
She hates bananas.
