card blanks

[jojo76]

where do you all buy your card blanks from? I would like a variety of different types of card and colours and dont want to spend a fortune. Ive seen some packs cheap on ebay, has anyone bought from ebay?

I usually buy good A4 card and make my own. You get better valus that way, and thicker card blanks.

Alternatively, I use Anita's 50 packs if I want a quicker option. They come in cream and white, 25s or 50s.

I use 'craft creations' (website) as you can buy many sorts (folds/apertures/colours/effects) and generally get a discount when you buy 5/10/50 of a similar sort.

Argos has sets of card blanks too - fairly decent quality

I have quite a few card blanks with apertures which I'd be willing to pass on to you. Let me know if you're interested & I'll sort out what I've got and in what colurs.

thanks so much everyone for your suggestions, I will look at that website, pootlepod, and I hadnt thought of looking in argos so i will look there too. I am a total novice so i dont really know what to look for, i suppose its a case of trying a few out and seeing what i like! Where to you buy your card from, DDDoir, and do you have one of those tools that crease the paper for you??? Pumpkinpud, thanks, that would be great, Id definitely be interested, let me know what you have and how much you want for it!

Jojo - I buy my card from any craft shop. Most fairly thick A4 card costs about 16p a sheet, so 8p per card blank. Also, Rapid Electronics do packs of 100 A4 sheets of really thick card for £5, so 2.5p per card blank. They have a web site, but postage might be costly! They are only around the corner from me, so I'm lucky.

Yes, I have a card creaser board. I got it new from ebay for around £7, and it does the job!
