Save Money on Envelopes

I have been using my extensive shopping experience to source cheap envelopes for your card blanks.....

Usually card blanks come with matching envelopes. But if you have made your own card blanks, or have purchased card blanks without envelopes, then you will need to source envelopes for them. Envelopes in non-standard sizes are difficult and expensive to source. I have found that it can be worthwhile to buy boxed-sets of Christmas cards on sale after Christmas, just for the envelopes. It can be way cheaper than buying the envelopes on their own! I have found this to be a great way to stock up on large and small square envelopes, and long thin envelopes.

I prepare an ingredient pack for each customer with the exact ingredients to make the sample cards. 4. I pack excess materials for customers to use to create their own designs based on their experience of making the sample card/s. 5. I pack a selection of punches, labels, stickers, paper strips and squares and my guillotines.  6. Basically, less is more in Card Making- I try to trim down what I bring for the customer's to use, as otherwise it becomes overwhelming and the resulting cards are just a haphazard collection of pretty toppings without any design. 7. Post workshop everything gets dumped on my bags for sorting later on when I get home! Sample Card...
