Question Sorting & Organizing Cards

I just picked up a few photo storage boxes with the intention of sorting my cards. There are 10 dividers and I'm wondering how to divvy them up? I was thinking:

1. Birthday
2. Thank You
3. Masculine
4. All Occasion
5. Juvenile (all occasions)
6. ????
7. ????
8. ????
9. ????
10. ????

Help filling the list will help me figure out what type of cards I should be making next. I'm gearing up for a craft fair in June and don't want to be caught without cards people really want.

I have mine divided but into more defined catagories, making it easier and quicker to find them. (I just made additional dividers)

Baby Girl
Baby Boy
Girl Birthday (kids to teens)
Boy Birthday (kids to teens)
Female Birthday (adult)
Male Birthday (adult)
Thinking of You / Just Because
Thank you's
Sympathy (people and pets)
Get Well
Wedding / Anniversary / Engagement
Holidays (each with their own tab: Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Christmas, etc.)
Retirement
Congrats (graduation, new job, promotion, new home, etc.)
Good Luck
Shower cards (baby shower, bridal shower)
Support cards: for those who have quit smoking, weight loss, etc.
Blank cards: cards have been made but no sentiments on the front or the inside - this comes in handy for those who want blank cards and if I need a card in a hurry with a totally different type of sentiment or greeting.
Money / merchandise gift cards (Target, Coffee Shops, Salon, Home Depot, those types of gift cards)
Donation cards

There are more, but this is probably far more than what you were originally asking for, but it works for me!
