card-making supplies recs?
hi all,
i've decided that i would like to do something crafty and after looking at some of the fun a coworker has had making cards, i thought i'd give this a try first.
so my question to you is what sites/stores would you recommend for the basic starter supplies? there are so many around that i don't know where to start! hobbycraft seems an obvious one but it's often the most expensive. unfortunately we don't have a crafty store (except hobbycraft) in my town so online recs would be fantastic!

Wilkinsons have a craft section and are pretty good for basics like backing papers, card blanks and stickers etc.
For lovely cheap card toppers I buy The Works calendars just after Christmas when they are marked down and that gives me 12 colourful pictures.
When I asked on here where to buy white card this site was recommended:

I have some great card stock from them at super prices. Plus lots of ribbon. Recommend a look in their bargain corner also.
If you intend to post your cards note the postage charges including depth of the package before you do your design. For example a tied bow can be quite chunky so will add to postage costs.
