I make my own. I use a program on my computer and some art work I bought from. www.pccrafter.com. I use regular printer paper and make 1/4 fold cards. And use card stock for the 1/2 fold cards.I also print up my own envelopes for them and cut them out. I am a computer novice and have no problem with this. I've not seen any cards with quilting themes for sale around here. Mary

Hi, I make greeting cards all the time. Just make your backing the same size as your envelop and then cut out anything you want to put on it. Like at Christmas, put trees, santa's, stars, mangers, etc. then for birthdays and anniversaries use flowers, trees, food, I have a greeting card program on my computer and you can make the pictures any size you want them, copy them off, cut them out and go from there. It is fun and very easy to do. I sew a lot and I have small wallhangings that I do the same way. Trying to do them from scratch is pretty neat. My husband says I am very artistic. I doubt that but I do enjoy trying to see what I can copy and then get it on material. good luck Ruth Nees [email protected]

in Williams AZ has quilt cards. I have bought birthday cards there.
When buying card stock, try finding the ones creased in the center. Some boxes even have the envelopes included.

I'll make them into a PDF file that ya'll can print at home if you'd like. You'd just need cardstock for your printer (and a color printer)

You can buy cardstock at places like Staples too. They also have envelopes for cards.The staples nearest to me even has colored card size envelopes. Watch at christmas sometimes even walgreens or wal- mart have red,or green envelopes and white one .After the holidays look for them in the mark down. That's when I buy them for the next years christmas cards. Also I have bought them at a dollar store. Mary
