"The UK’s leading multicultural greeting card and gift brand have teamed up with Words of Colour, to engage with the UK’s most talented writers, poets and speakers in a search for versing for the award winning Color blind Cards greeting cards which encapsulates the experiences and cultural nuances of our community.

Color blind Cards was launched in 2007 following founder Jessica Huie’s search for a card for her daughter, and the recognition of the lack of ethnic diversity in the high-street.

With the brand set to debut in major supermarkets in 2014, Color blind Cards are keen to find three writers who they can team with to create beautiful greeting cards for sale in the UK & USA. The opportunity will give winning writers an exciting commercial opportunity to have their work published and showcased to the world.

Winners will be celebrated at an exciting Color blind Cards London event in March 2014, promoting the growing visibility of diversity in the British high-street.

Terms & Conditions:

Writers should contribute two greeting card verses of no more than 70 words each on any two of the following topics.
Congratulations on your wedding
Happy Valentines Day
Mother on your birthday
To my Son
To my friend
To my Father

Entries should be emailed to info@wordsofcolour.co.uk

Please put ‘Color blind Cards competition’ in the subject line and enclose your full name, address and a contact telephone number.
