Congratulations pp, it's always a nice feeling when people appreciate your talent and all the hard work that you've put into something.

I don't suppose u could put any pics of some of your handmade cards?? I'd be interested to see what they look like.

Congratulations too pink princess....

I make home-made greeting cards too, and a good tip is to have a card party, (Like a tuperwear or anne summers), just invite a good group of friends and family, and have a few glasses of vino and nibbles and sell sell sell...

Good Luck with making your profit...

I love hand made cards and would love to make them,

but as i have the artistic temperament of a gnats arse i tend to buy them.

Though i always think its so sad to bin them after the event, when someone has put so much thought into them.

Lovely cards PP, you clever thing x

Wow PP you sure are talented, those homecade cards are excellent. I can now see why u had already received £100 for them so far. With the lovely line-up you have I'm sure that figure will steadily increase in no time at all. :-6
