OK, that's good to know. When making a gift of needlework I prefer mounting
it in a box also. Even if it's something that doesn't suit their taste to
put on a wall a box is always useful. Any that I have given have always
been well received.

Also if you're planning to make a lot of these cards there are various
size/shaped punches available that do a nice job. They too can be found
where you buy stamping, scrap booking materials.

Good link. Also, here is a link for the wholesale supplier, The Yarn Tree:
http://preview.tinyurl.com/ykmcpcc
They list who carries stuff from them. I know that the shop I used to
manage, Scarlet Thread, stocked a fair amount of the different stationary
packs. You might also send her an e-mail, as she is working as a web-based
shop now (B&M shop closed):
Www.scarletthread.com
The cards are pretty nice, they are available in different shaped openings.
I've also seen some recently that have perforated paper in some cut-out
openings, ready to stitch.

Try the Papersource - http://www.paper-source.com/
I believe that my local store had some when I went in there two months
ago. Don't know how often stock changes.
