    Bunbun the papers I have used on the penny black card are from Wild Rose Studio you can get them here
  • I'm hoping that you can help me - Marg suggested that I try here! I'm trying to get very organised and make my Christmas Cards this summer - I'm a teacher so it is the perfect opportunity!

    I've come up with a design, but need to by card blanks that have two folds and either two or three windows in the front. I need to buy at least 100 and was wondering if any of you crafty types knew of any suitable online shops that can meet my needs.

    The alternative would be a square puncher - my hands aren't up to cutting out the individual windows.

    Hello littlemisslogical Welcome to the thread.

    Probably the cheapest way would be to make your own, buying a box of card from The Papermill Shop and a square punch especially if you can just buy envelopes from Wilko's. I have found a link for you and I have used
    this company in the past and found them to be excellent quality products, but they may be a little more than you wanted to pay. Someone else will probably come along with another suggestion.

    Rainmac -you are brave helping out at the school disco - I don't think I'd be able to cope!

    Rusty - thanks for working that out for me - I was getting confused!

    Littlemisslogical - welcome to the thread - sorry I can't offer any advice but I'm sure someone will come along who can.

    Littlemisslogical - How about these here, I'm not sure how much the postage is though.

    Not sure where the best place to buy window cards would be? You could try ebay. Is this site any help, they sell cards individually but you get discount the more you buy?
