I still think it's indefensible to copy someone else's work because you don't have a fresh idea. If you have to cheat at a little county fair, you shouldn't bother to enter. It has nothing to do...

I would "feel" that the other person was severely lacking in creativity and integrity if they had to copy my design. Designing the card is the hard part. There's no excuse for that, especially in a...

I do the flowers last....sometimes I move them around a dozen times or more before I find the right placement. Sometimes, I have to add more and on occasion I decide that a flower won't work.

I make a lot of 5.5 x 5.5......you can get a lot of "stuff" on it. I like the A2 size, but those are usually my quick cards. I agree that the envelopes are universal and easier to get, though.
