I would like to recommend a wonderful book for marketing your crafts..You made it now sell it. This book has helped me make money with my crafting. For years I toyed with the idea of selling the hats I make..when I purchased this book on Amazon it helped me focus on taking my hobby and making money. Now I can't say that I've made great sums of money but I am at least paying for my hobby..I love it. I did what the book recommended and wrote a business plan..now I'm clear on where I want to go with my crafts in the future. My website should be up soon and I'm so proud.

Do you perhaps have the name of the author or the ISBN number? I can't find the book on Amazon, and it doesn't seem to be on the Blackwell site, either.

I've found it on Amazon US, this book is for jewellery, so I don't know if there was one for cards or if the principle would be the same.

Thanks for the info, Denyze. I had a search on UK sites, but couldn't find it anywhere.

I tried as well, the only place I haven't tried yet is Green Metropolis, but I don't hold out much hope of finding it on there.
