Sponsored by GF Smith, the PaperAwards recognise and reward talent and innovation within the Greetings & Stationery industry. Exhibiting brands are now invited to submit their applications.
As the world's largest edited show for this sector, the Spring/Summer 17 (S/S17) edition of Top Drawer's Greetings & Stationery attracts the very best UK and international greeting cards and stationery design-led brands.

A shortlist of brands will be determined by an expert judging panel. The final vote will be put to the industry and the winners announced just before the show.
The deadline for applications is the 30th November.
