Handmade Monday

For this week's Handmade Monday, courtesy of Wendy at 1st Unique Gifts, I thought I would share with you what I've been doing.  I've been very busy making lots of cards this last week because in June I do my one and only craft fair for the year, Saddleworth Show.  This is a great event and I always sell well hence building up my stock!!

So here are a few of my new cards, I've been experimenting with some new designs.  I'm trying to come up with a theme rather than lots of various different themes for my cards.  I  would love to know what you think and whether the designs work for you....shall I make more??

The flowers are lovely, the cakes are totally wow (I'd buy!) and the others are nice but don't do much for me personally (might buy if occasion was right). Hope that helps?

Good luck for your fair!

Thanks for taking part in HM x

Love the cupcakes best (that seems to be such a popular thing!) They all look nice, I don't buy cards much.

Love the cupcake card, am salivating as I am currently waiting for my supper to come out of the oven... if there is a cake missing twas one of the others, honest!

I really like the simple feel and clean lines of the flower card (and I don't really like flowery things).

I think simple often works best - classic.

I like the top two cards, (flowers and cake). They are just that little bit different and I think they'd be a popular buy. People like 'different'.

I like the top two as well, and out of the male cards I like the one with the 'wood' effect and barbecue print - good for a summer birthday!

I'm another for the top two, although I do like the guitar print on the male 'note to you' card.

Thanks for giving me your feedback, quite a mixed bag of comments.

Don't think anyone commented on the get well soon cards....would these sell do you think?? I love the colours and if I was ill they would certainly cheer me up?...
