Card making

KatieEgg · 22-11-2009, 23:14

Just wondering if anyone else out there makes handmade cards?
I started to do it to fill my days when I couldn't find a job, then got to the stage where I sold to friends & family & now I have my cards sold at three different shops

I buy alot of my bits on ebay for cheapness sake, but often pop into the Art&Hobby shop too if they have something I simply MUST have!
I thought it might be fun to discuss card ideas, shapes, themes, etc here, maybe post a couple pics of your work?
