Cardmaking is more of a love-hate relationship if you would ask the majority. But if you come to have that gift for this craft and you also happen to have the kind of patience and enthusiasm to make many personalize cards that can touch and inspire the hearts of many, then congratulations, you are actually one of the chosen few. The few people who at first hate cardmaking because it looks so tedious and stressful but at the end of the day, you'll end up loving it. You will love it so much that you are already bordering to addiction. Your mind generates ideas for new cards non-stop, all day and your hands can't wait to implement them! You can't sit on one corner without having that urge to either go to the craft store to get some stuff or go ahead and get these pieces together and come up with a very magnificent and equally touching work of art! If you have this attitude, then might as well put into good use and try to make money out of card making. You may shook your head in disbelief thinking that people would rather buy greeting cards in card store rather than with a neophyte cardmaker like you. Well, think again. Did you know that the preference of people are changing and they are already looking for different variety of cards making your homemade masterpiece a bestseller? Plus, your cards have a heart, no commercialized greeting card could actually beat that. Also, in today's internet age, people travel less and click more. Meaning, more and more people are getting used to buying the stuff that they need from the internet. This, again, my creative friend, gives you an edge. Of course, being an independent card maker, you are most likely to advertise and sell your services through the internet since it is the best medium because it is cheaper and more accessible. This factor could make you the preferred choice for many people, starting from your neighborhood and basically all around the world, someday. Lets just put you in the consumer's shoes. If you were them, which would you prefer having a unique and personalized card delivered directly right to their friend, family or loved-ones doorstep with a few clicks or going through all the hassle of going downtown to the book store and having it mailed in your nearby post-office? Indeed, a cardmaking business is a hit.
