Would you buy this card?






In preparation for a "one stop shopping" evening with vendors at a local church on November 21, I have been diligently creating cards to sell. I am over 100, and feel as though I should have at least 500 in order to offer variety to shoppers. However, I wonder if the ones I have made are marketable - they are "crafty", not exactly art. So I am posting pictures of them and would appreciate your input - are they marketable?

Please comment here, or to my email, and know that I am grateful for your honest opinion.

Hey Peggy...
I think your cards are saleable...do you have some sort of clear bag to protect them & their envelope as people look through them? You need to be competitive on price, too, especially these days. People don't want to spend a lot on cards these days...and can't. Cards can be a tough sell...I wish you lots of luck. I'd also say if you have over 100 & you don't know if people are really looking for cards, you might want to take the chance of selling out versus have lots of unsold inventory at the end of the sale.

I LOVE your cards!!! Handmade cards in my area go for 3-3.50 and I buy them even though i can make them, sometimes people want other peoples work or they dont have the time to make cards themselves. I have just stamped images on cardstock and sold packs of 4 for 12.00 and they go quickly and i am in a small town. They look so professional but yet still original and handmade you've really done a GREAT job Peggy!!! you go girl!
love n hugs, Dawn Marie
