I want to attach my photos to blank folding Note Cards either with cut-outs for my pictures or just blank which I can then tape to or peel and stick. I will use these for gifts in a big family gathering we are having in July. I'll need just shy of 100. But I want the lowest pricing available. Then too I want to try to sell some in local shops as my photography talents improve.
Where to find Best Pricing on blank Note Cards, Greeting Cards for my photos?
I've been doing the same thing. The most cost effective method I've found is to buy good quality card paper (card "board" really) from newsagents, about 60c each, from which I can get two cards. Great colours available including metallics for 85c. Either stick photos straight on front or cut cut-outs with stanley knife and cutting mat. If you're careful enough, they look professional.

I make hand made greeting cards. How do i make the plastic packaging that goes around the card & envelope?
I have the plastic wrapping on a roll, but don't know how seal it to create a pocket. Any ideas?

I have never tried to make mine but I would think that you can use the same stuff that is used for making gift baskets and use a hair dryer or a heat gun. I would check that out at your local hobby/craft store to see if they carry it.
Reply:I bought a kitchen vaccum sealer ( for foods) I use it for all my cards.

When I view certain greeting cards or received emails, all I see is a rectangle with an X in the corner?
I sometimes receive attachments to emails, that when I try to view them I see a large rectangle with an "X" in the upper left hand corner. It doesn't display any picture. I experienced the same thing at the American Greeting Cards site when I tried to view a card I wanted to personalize and send

What characters are the most funky/contemporary to put across a range of greeting cards?
I'd like to create a range of cards that isn't cutesy or fluffy but more graphic but don't just want cats, dogs, rabbits etc.
What characters are the most funky/contemporary to put across a range of greeting cards?
You could do them like the modern paintings ,not too abstract sort of very simple but with contrastig colours and lines .or a better idea ink and wash something like an old fashioned metal bridge (the wraught iron curly sort)with someone riding one of those penny farthing bikes over it and not much detail and a wash in one colour on that rough hand made paper oops i might want to do it meself now!!!

What do you call the little electronic players in greeting cards and stuffed toys?
I'm looking for a retailer, distrubutor,...etc to include into my new toy. Searches don't seem to come close to what I want.
What do you call the little electronic players in greeting cards and stuffed toys?
Music buttons, sound chips, musical movements- any of those names are correct. Most stores online will carry a selection of general tunes, but if you need a custom tune, you will probably have to find a manufacturer in the wholesale business section. I do know they run quite a bit, and you will have to buy a huge amount for custom jobs.

Many companies accept submissions, just check on the website of the company you'd like to sell/distribute cards or illustrations with. If you want to distribute them yourselves, check at local craft stores for how much a kiosk in their store would cost you.

What is the best printer to digitally print greeting cards?
Digitally, because each card will be different. And by "digitally" I mean not using a press, more like desktop publishing, but in a high volume. Thanks for any input.
What is the best printer to digitally print greeting cards?
Microsoft Publisher will work great. By Different, do you mean a mail merge, so you can add everyone's name... It does that.
Good luck

If I wanted to start a greeting-cards website, where would I start?
I have my (cpannel) website, and I have tons of beautiful photos, but how do I turn my ideas into post cards? Is there software that does this? (if so, what's the best one? or the best one to start with?)
Please let me know, I know nothing about this.
Thanks,

Theres a program called Clickbooks but I am not sure it allows you to design your own cards. But I have heard from friends that it is cool. It is free to try on the website. http://www.bluesquirrel.com/
Reply:There used to be this program called greeting card magic, or something like that. I don't know if its still available. The last time i heard of it was when Windows XP started up.
One thing you could do is open a word processer, make the page landscape and add 2 columns. On the first page, the left column is the front of the card, and the right column is the back of the card. The next page would be the inside left and right sides, matching the columns. Then print it out double sided or do a screenshot of that and crop out the window border and toolbars and all the stuff you don't want.
Reply:Don't know if you are familiar with sendoutcards.com but it's basically an online greeting card company that we use where you can send postcards, greeting cards, and tri-fold cards. You can upload photos and make your own cards. They also have a section where people can buy custom designed cards from outside vendors. Not suggesting this would stop you from doing what you want, but looking at their site may give you some ideas.

I received my greeting cards by Fur of the Anna from RedBubble today. What is the very heavyweight paper used?
The paper was of a very surprising quality. Thick and supple. Almost like the old leather postcards of decades ago.
Shipping was only 2.12 USD from Australia.
Is the paper used in the RedBubble cards available to photographers?

How do photographers get greeting card companys' to use their photographs in greeting cards?
I am interested in sending some in. Do they have to have contracts with Hallmark etc?
How do photographers get greeting card companys' to use their photographs in greeting cards?
get the book the photographers guide.........they make one for writers and visual artists....it lists who to contact....what to send how to do a query
Reply:Check with as many companys as you can, on what they need for submissions. Some may accept "off the street" submits, but some will only accept previously contracted submissions from known sources.
Reply:Some photos come from staff photographers; some come from outside sources. Apply for a position with Hallmark, or submit your work to one of the stockhouses like getty or corbis. Those are the most common ways a photographer's work ends up on cards.
Reply:My suggestion is to get the "2007 Photographers Market" handbook (amazon.com) in there you will get all the information you require to submit to various agencies around the world.
Pay strict attention to guidelines by these companies. If not your images will be rejected. In some cases they will not give you a reason why.. even throw your stuff away.
So to get yourself noticed by the editor you need to have technically perfect images, captions need to be correct and when contacting the editor you get the right person (new editor would not like this).
I would not just consider Cards and Calenders you are limiting your sales and it takes about 2 years to go to press plus.... these companies have a thing they call "speculation" that means they will sit on your images for a long period of time and during that time you are not allowed to sell your images to anybody else.... hmmmm.
Stock agencies, if they are to big you will not get noticed, if to small you will not make much money and their contacts to reach as far. With stock agencies it is usually 50/50 40/60 (their favor not yours) plus other things they tab on you.
Here is a website for you to look at. First don't go to their pictures go to their guidelines and stuff and see if you match what they want. Also just a week ago that site had 8.5 million.
You can also look at some of my past answers under this subject to help you.
Hope this helps,

Best place online to sell handcrafted greeting cards?
I have been making cards for a while and have sold them fairly succesfully through gift shops etc. However, I have recently been diagnosed whith Cancer and no longer have the energy to get out and about sourcing outlets, so I would like to sell them online (little energy required!). I would appreciate it if anyone can give me any information about how to go about doing this. I have had to go onto Disability Living Allowance for a while so probably would not be able to afford a website of my own. Any info at all will be gratefully appreciated.
Best place online to sell handcrafted greeting cards?
There's a site made specifically for artists and crafters to sell their work online: http://www.etsy.com
There's a great community over there and lots of cool stuff. You get your own store and everything. Good luck :)
Reply:You can sell them on ebay as a private seller, i know a girl who does, as she does okay... check ebay out and have a wee look..
Good luck x
Edit....
You can sell them at a fixed price, but under cutting the big named card shops, i usually pay between £3-4 for a good card from a named outlet , on ebay i buy them now for as little as £2.00......

This is the age of Computer and you should make a website for your internet presense. And you have to use each and every promotion method available but keep yourself in budget limits.

Reply:A marketing strategy could be based around nuts: How nuts people are when they read your cards. How nuts people go when they receive a Walnut Street Card.
Another idea: create a real Walnut Street complete with a butcher and dance studio where real walnuts live and come to life with their own personalities. Perhaps your website could have walnuts that people could personalize (kind of like the Sims).
Both ideas could start as simple animations.

Where can i buy the transparent envelopes used for high quality art greeting cards?
I am trying to find a source for the transparent envelopes so when I sell my handmade photographic greeting cards they are protected from fingerprints and dust.
Where can i buy the transparent envelopes used for high quality art greeting cards?
First off be sure you ONLY use polyester NOT polypropylene if you really want something to last! The cost between the two is not that big of an issue. The Library of Congress uses polyester only for ENCAPSULATION of documents. Polyester has NO plasticizers and IS chemically inert, there for doesn't attack the enclosed document or in your case art. Don't be fooled by someone calling something "ARCHIVAL" when it is made from polyethylene.
Use certified "ARCHIVEL QUALITY" if you want the best.
If cost is an issue and you only care about the presentation and NOT PRESERVATION of your art than use the Polypropylene. Following are some links for you to check out.

Print out greeting cards in the UK?
I've designed my own greeting cards, but my old printer has gone out of business. Can anyone recommend a printer that will do good quality printed greeting cards? (I'm thinking of selling about 100 copies of each design) I prefer something UK based for postage reasons.
Print out greeting cards in the UK?
Get a professional company to print them for you like Minuteman. Maybe an idea for Xmas 2007?
A lot of good free choices here..

Do you send Greeting Cards or Holiday Newsletter?
I usually send cards but I'm thinking of doing a newsletter this year with Christmas stationery. It's a little more personal and brings friends and family up to date on our busy lives.
Do you send Greeting Cards or Holiday Newsletter?
That is a great idea and should be a lot of fun to do.
Reply:I used to send cards, and put in a short note to people I didn't see very often. Most people I kept in contact with all year long anyways, so just a Xmas card was okay.

I have a lot of cards (greeting cards), what should I do with them?
I have tons of greeting cards that are sentimental, and I hate to throw them away because they are from when I got married, and when I had my baby, and so on, but I really don't know what to do with them. Does anyone have any cool ideas on ways to display them, without looking like I am an obsessive compulsive hoarder?

Has anyone seen the new political greeting cards for both Democrats and Republicans?
They're pretty wild. A lot of birthday cards. Some will have a picture of Sen. Clinton on the front with a dig at her inside, some have Bush/Cheney poses with digs at them. Like for instance, I bought a birthday card for a friend who just detests Bush. On the front, it had poses of him and a chimp next to each other with the exact same looks on their faces - about ten different pictures. Inside it says: "Evolution or Intelligent Design? You Decide."

Read the booklet that came with your printer, as to paper types.
I use cardstock in my inkjet, and they turn out fine. I have nothing to compare it with, but I'm happy with the results.

No e-cards i mean the real ones with paper an all, that you give in person or send by mail.
What is the best thing about greeting cards? What do you like to see in them?
its a tough one...some people love them like me, some others hate them. I love them because I know somebody was thinking about me.
I like to see something personal in them...a drawing or a poem.

Know where I can get recycled pre-scored blank greeting cards?
The "recycled" part seems to be the kicker when looking at prices. I can find non-recycled blank cards to put my own design on for dirt-cheap but i can't seem to locate recycled on google.
Know where I can get recycled pre-scored blank greeting cards?
Depending on how many you need most print shops have overstock on different materials. (left over from other jobs) and they can make them into any size card you want and emboss them to fold and furnish you with envelops to match.
My sister owns a printing company and I raid her back room when I need card blanks.
Reply:I have seen some at Michaels crafts stores. Also, one of the many choices at Staples (or was it Ofice Depot?) was recycled. Have you checked those kinds of places? Michaels, you know, doesn't sell online.

How likely are you to send greeting cards?
Are you a special occasion person?
Are you a "Sorry I Forgot" person?
Are you a "You're getting this card and you'd better just shut up and appreciate it" person?
Are you an "every occasion" person?
I'm an every occasion person - I send St. Patrick's Day cards to everyone, even if they're not Irish!
How likely are you to send greeting cards?
in the days of email and text, cards are a forgotten method of communication which people hold on to for emotional reasons and can mean so much so i try whenever possible to send a card for a special occasion. Esp thank you, thought of you today, hope you are feeling better, etc. Not the best at doing birthday cards - feels too perfunctory.

Is there anywhere that you can buy just the envelopes for greeting cards?
I print my own cards and I buy the card stock to print them on...which does not come with envelopes. I've tried printing the envelopes but then I have to cut them out and glue them together and it's just too much trouble. Can't I just buy the envelopes?
Is there anywhere that you can buy just the envelopes for greeting cards?
Office Depot, Staples, or any other stationery store.
Make sure you know what size you need. If you fold a regular 8-1/2x11 sheet of paper in half, then in half again at a right angle, you will end up with a 4-1/4x5-1/2 card. An A2 envelope is the size you need for this (4-3/8x5-3/4).
Reply:I purchase blank envelopes (4 X 6") at Office Max or Staples. I make greeting cards and invitations so I looked for envelopes. They run about $6.00 for 100.
Reply:I've found a better selection of envelopes at ACMoore and Michael's craft stores, and at the locally-owned stationery store, than at Target or Staples. You could also check your area for any independently-owned scrapbooking or paper/stationery stores. And there are several stationery stores online.
Reply:Wal*Mart sells envelopes for 4X6 cards.

How can i make the letters on my handmade greeting cards look like a hologram.?
I have seen something once before where the hologram color was transfered to a take out menu by using an iron. I didnt catch what the actual name of the transfer paper, and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. I would also like any other ideas for adding holographic coloring to cards. thanks.

Does anyone know how to make single-fold greeting cards in Microsoft Publisher using Avery card stock? I am trying to print cards with inside messages.

Reply:Is it a letter size folded in two? If it is, open a blank document and select letter size landscape. In the Arrange menu, click on layout guide,click on the grid guides tab and select 2 columns. Go back to margins tab and format your margins. In the insert menu click on insert page after current page. Now you have two pages. Page 1 is cover and back of card and page 2 is inside cover and inside back. Now you are good to go. I hope that helped. Good luck!!

Creative way to store greeting cards from wedding?
My husband and I recieved so many beautiful cards for our wedding and I want to do something creative with them. It seems wrong to just put them in a box in the closet. They might be too much for scrapbook. I don't know. Is there any psuedo Martha Stewart's that can help me?
Creative way to store greeting cards from wedding?
There are sooo many things you can do. Just to name a few...you could make them into a collage you can frame for maybe a piece of art in a guest room. You can make a quilt (that will hang on the wall with little vinyl pockets to slide them in and out if you don't want to destroy them. You can also frame them all and make a huge wall art piece. You can tack them down to a table top and put a large piece of glass on top (this is something you can change out). You can border a room with them. You can scan them and print them onto fabric and make anything with them...maybe a bulletin board? Keep going from there and you will figure it out.

Do you like pop up greeting cards?
When you go to Hallmark, Walgreens or anywhere to buy a greeting card? Are you more attracted to pop up greeting cards? Would you prefer a pop up card over a regular card? or do you think pop up cards are just for kids?
Do you like pop up greeting cards?
Don't care really. Sometimes it's really cute but I find it really childish. No "popping" (looks like 'pooping', doesn't it?) has ever brought my mood up so high as a really thought-provoking phrase or some really funny words. And I don't mean anything like 'kilbyurokinie', whatever that means, I mean that good humor will beat any pop up. Sometimes a good music is nice too - as long as it's not too catchy that you can't get it out of your head for the rest of the week.
A site I've used in the past ...

Hope that helps.
Reply:I love those kind of cards (and those kid books too)! You don't see too many of them these days. Yes, I would definately prefer those pop-up cards than a regular card.
Oh, and I also keep those pop-up cards than regular cards (I hate saying this...but I tend to just throw those away).
Reply:once in a while i like the musical ones better though!!
Reply:Sometimes i do.. Depends on how they are. Sometimes they get preety bugging... but yea.. they are sweet.
Reply:i like blank cards that I can write a personal greeting on but pop ups are nice too! :)
Reply:Pop up cards are cool... I just like cards that are a little different. I found one for my sister... it was a flower in a pot. Like the card was flat and I signed it and put it in the envelope, but you could kind of pop it open and it was a flower in a pot. It still sits on her dresser, it's cute. (She was turning 20)
Get a card that works for the person you're getting it for! If the card has a nice meaning, I would love a pop up, or I'd take a regular card. Really, I guess it's the thought that counts in the end.
Reply:I love them...especially the Victorian like ones.
Joy to you.
Reply:depends if I see a unique one maybe that the pop out part serves a really good function for the artistic concept. Other wise to me, it seems too constructed and non intimate.
Reply:I like pop up cards once in a blue moon. If I get one too often, it gets kind of annoying.
Reply:Nah, I usually like funny cards. I think everyone does really. Either that or something that is sincere and touching.
I just think that pop up cards are kinda dumb. How many people are going to open it and say, "Oh wow!!!"? I never really put this much thought into it until now. But they are pretty lame.
Reply:I think the pop-up ones are great for kids, they really get a kick out of them. For adults I don't think it really matters much. Although on Valentines day I did buy a musical one which seemed to be a great hit.

What holidays do you send out greeting cards?
Have you bought cards online? Would you ever?
What service do they need to provide for you to use them?
What holidays do you send out greeting cards?
none, its a waste of time money and natural resources.
Reply:bout all of 'em
Reply:Greetings cards can be sent out for any official holiday and many small scale events not even recognised as holidays, especially online.
I, personally, send greetings cards for Christmas, Birthdays, Easter, New Year, Congratulations (Passing Driving Test, Passing Exams, New Baby, Marriage, Engagement) and Sympathy.
I have bought cards online but only twice. Once I was getting some customised cards made and the other time the cards were pretty specific (for one of those 'not quite recognised as holidays' events).
Cards need to be easily accessible by the person receiving them - need to reach a point or message that you want to convey to the person you're giving it to.
If I want someone to giggle at my card I'm obviously most likely to buy a humorous one etc.
They also need to be economically viable, not costing too much for a simple gesture.
Finally, for me, they must be easy to customise. I like cards that I can customise online or add parts such as phrases or funny notes myself when I get it.
The personal touch is the most important thing to me when sending a card.

Is there some type of glitter spray available to use on handmade greeting cards?
We are making Mother's Day cards next Sunday in church and I was wondering if there is something out there that can be sprayed on paper that gives a light glittery effect. Something that is not messy and won't rub off. I can spray the paper before the children color them. Any ideas? THANKS!

Can you make money making greeting cards?
I have started to make my own cards, does anyone else do this? If so would you say there is much money to be made in this business?
Can you make money making greeting cards?
Definitely. You could even go further than Hallmark has and make racier cards. Go the ghetto route. "Sorry to hear bout yo drive-by." If you cater to certain people you could make lots of money. Have a teenager line of cards. That would be cool. I worked at a Hallmark for 3yrs and loved it. When you start your business find me, I'll manage your store! Good Luck!!!
Reply:there are a number of greeting card companies,particularly in the us and Canada that pay for greeting card ideas if they like them. there is a book at the-library about writers guide i believe it is called that lists them and other areas of authorship that accept submissions, and the required formats. good luck!
Reply:American greeting was started by a man who sold cards to stores in a wagon.
If your product is good enough, people WILL buy it.
As a business man myself, go to a library and check out a book on running a business or a book about running a card business.
Just look at the prices that cards sell for. A hallmark card runs about $1.99 in the store and cost wholesale maybe $.40
There are millionaires in every line of work.
Reply:Yes, if you can make a name for yourself. Like American Greetings, or Hallmark.
Reply:It's not easy, but you can make money selling IDEAS for cards. Many card companies accept freelance ideas for cards.
Reply:I’ve had this happen to me a few times, I’m pretty crafty with paper stuff, book binding and have started to think about selling my work.
The thing is to do the work on a small scale is fun but doing it as a business, trying to make money, it all adds up to allot of work.
Do I think hand made or manufactured cards is a good potential business, absolutely.
But it will require designing truly unique cards that you can’t already buy, determining the best materials, shopping them around to find retailers or finding a distributor or doing trade shows, and finally setting up for production.
That would be six months worth of hard work, probably with some disappointments along the way.
The biggest trade show for cards and related paper products is NYC at the Javit’s Convention Center, it’s in the spring if it’s at all possible you should go see what your up against.
If you decide to do it you will be living my dream.
best of luck

What is the best kind of paper to buy to print greeting cards w/ an inkjet printer?
I want them to look professional. I bought some inkjet cards from strathford but they are too thin. I would like something heavier and glossy on one side but not sure if something like that exist that is compatible with an inkjet printer. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
What is the best kind of paper to buy to print greeting cards w/ an inkjet printer?
For a normal ink-jet printer you need heavy weight paper from 110 to 180 gramweight. (anything heavier will clog up the printer).
I usually use 100S-180g. white or off-white cardboard for my greeting cards.
For special cards almost any nice looking paper that catches your eye can be used.
(The cardboard that is glossy on one side is too heavy and usually gets "stuck" in the printer (at least the only one I've found). Not all papers accept the ink jet ink correctly, on some glossy type papers the ink runs, on others it looks "pale".
You can replace the glossy cardboard with a heavyweight photographic paper.. Just make sure it's one with a plain reverse side (some have the brand name printed on the back).
Elephant skin paper (110g.) has a satiny finish and is excellent for cardwork, so are the "marbled" papers...
I often use the pink and blue marbled ones for baby announcements.
I printed my daughters wedding invitations on grey marbled cardboard, and it gave them a very lovely effect. (Most of the marbled papers have matching envelopes).
One that gives good results and looks very elegant is a heavy-weight tracing (vegetable) paper. (the kind architects use).It is a semi-transparent paper, reminds one of parchment. Be careful when folding it, the lesser weight one folds better
I sometimes print my cards on 2 pages...the outer one in cardboard, and the inner page on heavy tracing paper. It looks very smart (also great for wedding menus).
Reply:I make a lot of greeting cards for family and friends. I use plain old card stock. Sometimes I print the inside of the card on parchment type paper and glue it into the card. You can experiment with the edges of the card stock with different cuts (you can buy scissors that cut different designs). I have actually torn the edge and then gone over it with a little sandpaper to give it a frayed look. I also use an inkjet printer and have had no problem with card stock (110lb). Good luck and have fun :)
Reply:Unless the packaging specifically says the paper is compatible with inkjet printers, the only way to know is to experiment. Some paper types might bleed with inket. Some may not absorb the ink at all.
Reply:Kodiak brand is the best.

How can I find a sales rep for my greeting cards which are from my photos & drawings/paintings ?
I don't live near a large city. I'm professional artist/photographer %26amp; I have prototypes of cards. How do I make the connection to retail?
How can I find a sales rep for my greeting cards which are from my photos %26amp; drawings/paintings ?
If it were me, I would start by compiling a portfolio, of as many as you can. I would start with smaller card companies, Write letters,
request appointments to view samples.
I would look at specialty shops and novelty type card shops, get the publisher name of the back, do some research about them, try to find companies with not the same style but the same feel of what you do, so there will be interest.
And Try, Try again.
You may also look at local printing companies, produce your own
cards. Market them to small businesses. Figure the cost and what you need to make, and "pre sell" or take orders for them., Think ot of the box man, (you're the artist) :)

Reply:I have found it to be very cost efficient to print my own. Just be sure that the printer you use is top notch (Epsons are excellent for reproduction work) and that your inks are archival quality and lightfast. Also, find a good source for your envelopes, clearbags, ect. Make sure to factor in these costs for your price plus your time. I generally package mine as single or 5packs and have sold with great success. I find that heavyweight matte papers from Epson work the best for clear crisp images with the truest color match. I truly hope this helps a bit. Have fun and good luck! :)
Reply:yes u can if u use the new technology.
and use picture paper
Reply:If you print in small quantities it's ok, depending on your paper - if it's a good quality non-absorbent paper %26amp; you can use a reduced ink setting and the colour still comes true.
Remember you'll need a cost-efficient source of not just ink %26amp; paper, but also envelopes and clear bags (a MUST for retailing since inkjet/laser inks can smear). I find my cards often sell my work, %26amp; I have a good wholesale source - so it's effective for me.
But if you want to print large quantities, the price per piece goes way down - shop around and get quotes. If you can give the printer the camera-ready file that saves a lot since printers charge big bucks for photographing/ scanning and setup.
Good fortune on your journey!

Every Christmas I still get picture cards from Walgreens. Just upload the picture and select a backdrop and they make the cards. It is very nice and pretty cheap.

I need creative ideas for saving sympathy greeting cards?
I want to do something special with the sympathy cards we got when my brother passed away. We've got about 40 or 50. I am not really wanting to put them in a scrapbook. But if I can't come up with something else I guess that is what I will do.
I need creative ideas for saving sympathy greeting cards?
We used to display our Christmas cards by taking a large juice can and remove both ends. Wrap yarn or ribbon around the can, lengthwise until it is covered and then slipping the cards under a string all around the can. It can take a lot of cards and doen't take up a lot of space.
I love the idea from ukquilte of scanning the cards.
Reply:Apart from the previous excellent answer - scan them into your computer, make a folder and then burn dvd's for members of the family, so you can all 'share' the cards.
Reply:If you want to display them, get a poster frame (sold at Wal-mart), arrange and attach the cards with a dab of glue and hang.
Reply:The way I display cards in general is get a a long piece of ribbon that matches your room color and pin the cards on to the ribbon then hang it on the wall, and viola you have a functional beautiful wall hanging!
Reply:make a collage out of them and use as the backround of your favorite picture of your brother and frame it... you could make several and give to family as a rememberance

How do you handle getting Christmas greeting cards out?
What is your timeframe?
How long does this take you? I am trying to do ten cards a day.
Do you have your list on a computer file or hand-written?
How many Christmases did it take you to compile the list?
How do you find people who have moved? Do you even try?
Do you write notes in each one?
About how many do you send out?
It's sort of overwhelming me..... Any tips on making it easier?
How do you handle getting Christmas greeting cards out?
I do a little each day. Like when I am sitting around watching t.v. or something. Also I have a address book for Christmas cards. When I get one from someone new then I add it to the book. If someone has moved I get there new address off the card they sent. If they don't send me one or I don't have an address some other way I just take them off the list.
Reply:I usually get pics taken at sears, make up my list, address them and mail. Last year I used Shutterfly with my own image, and they were nice.
I kind of want to do that again this year, but I'm not motivated to do ANYTHING. I have to get in gear in the next week or so.
Make a lot of lists--who you're going to send them to, what exactly you want, how much postage you'll need (dont' forget notes on extra postage if you're sending overseas).
If people have moved, I try the last # I had for them, or someone who may have known them.
Look online for people too, www.zabasearch.com is pretty decent.
Good luck with it all.
Reply:I put together a list of names and addresses in Excel that I can print out on labels (using Microsoft Word). I put the list together (about 36 addresses) during my wedding planning time a few years ago. I order my cards online (photo cards) in November and try to have the cards out by the first week in December. Using Word for the to and from labels really saves time. I worry about address changes after I order my cards.
Reply:I think you are on the right track by doing 10 a day. I keep my addresses in an old fashion address book. I update has needed by marking through the old ones.
I do write a short message in some of the cards, but I just sign for my family.
In the past I have sent many cards. I gave one to each person I worked with, each child I taught and then family and friends. This year is different so I will send less to family and friends. We moved and I have not been able to get a new job. I looked at cards this week, but didn't see any that I loved yet.
Merry Christmas to you!
Reply:First, gather all of your addresses and put them in a word document, create labels. Save it and update when you need them. If you don't have a computer, get a three ring small binder for this purpose and just keep them all there. Update when you receive the changes. Organization is your best friend. I don't send out that many Christmas cards. I'm not that organized. I've lost touch with some people. That doesn't help. I don't receive that many Christmas cards anymore.
It sounds like you have a decent plan. But feel free to take a break when you need to. You are in control. Remember that.

I make greeting cards, where can I find sponsors who r willing to invest in my work?
I make beautiful hand made cards, books, boxes, envelopes, photo albums, bookmarks and so on. Im looking for a company or sponsor who is willing to invest in my work as I have hundreds of designs and am wanting to reproduce them, they are origional designs and iv not seen anything close to it in any shops around UK, Australia and in Asia and even on the Web...
Thank You :)
I make greeting cards, where can I find sponsors who r willing to invest in my work?
Try locally owned scrapbook stores and Hallmark stores. Also, sometimes vendor booths at fairs. Many stores like selling something locally made.
Good luck!
Reply:don't try hallmark
there are any number of producers who activly use freelance artists
hallmark just ain't what it's cracked up to be anymore
Reply:The best thing would be to send some of your designs to all the craft magazines....if you do this make sure that you copyright your original designs first so they cant turn round and make them up as their own design.
If you want to sell any of your designs to shops you will probs get very little per item as shops will be wanting a 100% mark up so you will need to see if its worth it after cost of materials and a wage for yourself as no point in working for nothing. They would also want exclusive rights to the designs that you make for them. Also all of the materials that you use to make your craft items would have to be copyright free...maybe ok to use the papers/images etc for items that you give away but not if you want to sell them.
Good luck
Reply:how much do you need.
Reply:I would say go with some legal protection before you start plugging your product. There are several companies that are always looking to improve. Instead of trying to slay the Hallmark dragon first, start with their competition. They'll be more intersted if they think it could give them an edge. Be as formal as you can be in your approach and be sure to let them know that you chose to come to their company first because you believe in their small business values. If they reject you then start swinging for the fences. Google it up and collect yourself some contacts, fix up your portfolio, and hack out a well prepared presentation and your in like Flynt. Be careful to hide your best ideas but be sure to allude to them when talking to the representative(s). Best of luck to you.
Reply:Publishers of cards and stationery will just pay you for the design and the sell the products and get the lion's share.

What do you do with old Greeting cards?
My husband insists on saving greeting cards from the past 15 years. I live in a condo and don't have the space for every valentine, birthday, etc, etc., I receive. He thinks they are memories - I think it's trash. What do you think?
What do you do with old Greeting cards?
I throw lots of mine out, but I would never have the audacity to tell someone else he or she should throw away something he or she values. If he does not want it, he will throw it out. If you want to be crafty, you can cover a box that holds your Christmas decorations with cut-outs from the Christmas cards. You or your husband can cut out some of the favorite pictures, put glitter or fake snow on the pictures, laminate, or shellac the pictures and hang those on the tree. Or decopauge cut-outs from the cards onto ornaments. Maybe make some magnets from the cut-out cards. That way, you will save some space but still have the memory of the card. And you will be displaying your memories rather than piling them in a box where you never look at them. I had a teacher who brought the class all of her old cards and she had us cut out the pictures, and arrange the pictures on wood plaques for the walls. Some of the arrangements looked surprisingly nice.
Reply:I have kept most of mine. But now we are moving to a house from our apartment, and I kind of want to get rid of them. I don't want to take a lot of stuff to our new home, to collect dust. But I have a hard time getting rid of things. I am not sure what to do.
Reply:I take the tear them in half, and mail the tops of the cards to St. Jude Childrens Ranch. I have done this for years, someone once told me that the children create with them.
Reply:Not trash at all.
I keep them in a box. Years worth of birthday and Christmas cards.
Why throw them away?
Reply:My boyfriend is like you. I am like your husband. I have boxes of cards under my bed, years worth of cards and correspondence.
But I have compromised and started throwing away cards that don';t have a personal message. I have tons of cards that say "merry christmas! love, Name" and I've started throwing them away somewhat reluctantly.
In fact, unless people have something to substantial to say in a card, I wish they'd save the postage and just send an email. I like getting mail but not for the sake of having something to open. I want to read an update or a message of some sort.
I like the idea of sending the old cards to senior centers. I am sure that schools or craft leagues would welcome the extra supplies as well.
Edited to add:
Lots of great ideas here. Thanks!
Reply:I say use the 3 R's rule: reduce, re-use or recycle. If you don't want them anymore, throw them out. Or you could see if a local shelter or daycare center would want them for art projects.
Reply:Before you toss them, check with the local senior citizens centers. I have reletives who live in retirement communities who recycle old greeting cards into new ones as art projects.
Reply:Recycle.
Reply:I always throw away Christmas and Birthday Cards, but keep special ones, like all the cards we got when my husband and I were married or the cards we received when my daughter was born. See if you can comprimise and have him keep only the very special ones. Or you could make a scrap book out them , so that they are neatly packed in a book and won't take up as much space. And don't give him anymore cards for his birthday or any other occasions, to keep the card clutter down.

Reply:Depends on how much information is written inside these greeting cards. If the messages are basically the usual "Hi love, hope you have a Merry Christmas, love xx", then I´d agree with you and throw them out. If, however, there are longer messages or mini-"letters" inside, I could understand your husband´s nostalgic attachment. Perhaps you could reach a compromise and go through them together, filtering out those that say very little, and keeping those of more importance. Personally, I put all greeting cards in the trash can after the event, but, for example, do keep holiday postcards that family/friends send me, as the messages etc. carry information that will bring back memories in years to come.
Reply:I don't think cards are trash. Well, not if there's something written in there aside from the cheesy Hallmark message. So sort it out, make an agreement with your husband. If there's something nice written in there, keep it, if there's nothing important, chuck it- Compromise.
Reply:keep it or throw it

What do you do with old Greeting cards?
I throw lots of mine out, but I would never have the audacity to tell someone else he or she should throw away something he or she values. If he does not want it, he will throw it out. If you want to be crafty, you can cover a box that holds your Christmas decorations with cut-outs from the Christmas cards. You or your husband can cut out some of the favorite pictures, put glitter or fake snow on the pictures, laminate, or shellac the pictures and hang those on the tree. Or decopauge cut-outs from the cards onto ornaments. Maybe make some magnets from the cut-out cards. That way, you will save some space but still have the memory of the card. And you will be displaying your memories rather than piling them in a box where you never look at them. I had a teacher who brought the class all of her old cards and she had us cut out the pictures, and arrange the pictures on wood plaques for the walls. Some of the arrangements looked surprisingly nice.
Reply:I have kept most of mine. But now we are moving to a house from our apartment, and I kind of want to get rid of them. I don't want to take a lot of stuff to our new home, to collect dust. But I have a hard time getting rid of things. I am not sure what to do.
Reply:I take the tear them in half, and mail the tops of the cards to St. Jude Childrens Ranch. I have done this for years, someone once told me that the children create with them.
Reply:Not trash at all.
I keep them in a box. Years worth of birthday and Christmas cards.
Why throw them away?
