I freely admit to having a thing about cards. I love buying them just for the sake of it, and storing them away for that day when they come in handy, and they always do. I’ve always bought birthday cards months before the actual birthday. I think a special card makes all the difference to a present, and one good place to pick them up is from Affordable Handmade Cards. This stall has a huge range of cards for all occasions, including little gift cards, and they’re mostly only $ 2, $ 3, or $ 4. Pretty reasonable when you can pay between $ 5 and $ 10 for a card from Whitcoulls. Plus, being handmade, they’re all slightly different and unique, and you can see they’ve been made with care. They have especially cute kids’ birthday cards.
