I've been making my own cards now for close to three years. This year, I attempted to sell some cards at our church's annual fall festival and a local school's bazaar. The fall festival was mostly a success but the bazaar was very disappointing, other than a special order for money holders. The first one was easy - pink/brown with a flower. Chocolate chip and pink is one of my favorite color combinations. It is for a 10-yr old girl. The card is the present...just insert cash under the brown tabs and then slide the white card into the pink envelope.
Here's the final outcome.
The next one is for a 13-yr old boy. The request was to use navy/silver and the Dallas Cowboys logo. He is a Dallas Cowboys fan. I am not. I live in Houston. But, I did it. I made a Dallas Cowboys card. I was pretty happy with the final result. The color is more accurate in the second picture.
My favorite card so far is a Houston Astros jersey card I made for a special birthday. It turned out super cute. I swear I took pictures of it but I can't find them anywhere. As soon as they turn up, I'll post pictures of that card. Maybe I can market them to the Astros. I'm getting pretty good at these team logo cards. Especially if they involve stars.
Special order, anyone?
