Our Huge January Sale features some extraordinary bargains on the Letterpress home printing system. See below for some cards made using the Letterpress and then click here for the sale bargains where you can save over 70% on Letterpress bundles.
The exquisite embossed and inked letterpress finish has always been a benchmark of top-end stationery but due to the bulky – and expensive – machinery that has been required up until now, it was impractical for home crafting. The Letterpress, however, is about to change all that. It is an innovative hand-held solution that can bring the couture of letterpress to your projects. This ingenious tool is affordable and small enough to sit neatly on your desktop.

Take a look at this video demonstrating the Letterpress system and then click here for the sale bargains.

Card making

We all know the pleasures that come from getting involved with card making and producing something that makes someone else happy. For a few minutes work, anyone can produce a personal and completely unique offering that could be perfect for birthdays, Christmas or any other occasion - even just as a way of showing how much you care for someone.

Card craft

People new to card craft and a little lost about where to begin should track down an online guide, as many card projects come with instructions that will allow even the newest practitioner to pull off a perfect card. The majority of these are free and include printable backgrounds, objects to cut out and many other things that combine to offer an ideal way to enter the world of card making. By mastering these skills, people can make fully customisable gifts for almost any conceivable purpose, with anything from anniversaries, Valentine's Day and engagements to Halloween, 'Thank You' messages and 'Get Well Soon' cards.

Card making supplies

It has never been easier to get involved with card making, as a huge range of products are available to make sure that these projects are a success. Whether you are using card blanks to create a customised birthday card, poly bags to protect cards you intend to sell at a local craft fair or card making embellishments which turn a great card into something really special, there are a whole host of cheap card making supplies on the market. One of the best ways to buy these without breaking the bank is through a craft pound shop, with many online stores offering a wide range of card craft goods at the cheapest of prices.

Card making ideas

Card craft fans looking for inspiring ways to use their cheap card making supplies should think about the different purposes they can turn their designs to. While children could appreciate animal-themed cards containing bears, elephants or kittens, there are also plenty of mature designs featuring butterflies and Forever Friends-based designs that would be more suited to a grown-up. Decoupage, origami designs and pop-up cards could all be good choices for fans of card crafts, while designs incorporating cross-stitch or glitter can also producing interesting designs.

There are plenty of occasions where products made from cheap card making supplies can provide the perfect, unique touch. Easter cards can contain felt chicks or rabbits, strips of material or even miniature bonnets, which can all be added to a card blank to create a seasonal card.

Card making envelopes

After putting labour and love into designing and creating the perfect craft card, the last thing you want is to crumple this into a poorly-chosen envelope. Many retailers who sell cheap card making supplies also sell card making envelopes, which could be the perfect way to present the ideal gift.

Card making envelopes are available in a variety of sizes, ranging from A6, DL and square to A5 and 7"x5" card blank sizes.
