I need your feedback

I know most people that read my blog have told me that they don't like to comment which is good with me...I'm not one to comment either. But I am now asking for some feedback either through commenting or just email me so it's not out there for everyone to read. but I did some invitations for Parkes' birthday party that people liked and our neighbor suggested that I should sell them and that she could put an ad in parent magazine for me. Then the wife of the guy Brandon works with who has a kid's store in Spring Hill said they would sell well there and to get some together to put in her store. Well so I started drawing some ideas (mostly boys since that is what I'm surrounded by, but I need to come up with some girls ones too). So here's what I'm asking for...your honest opinions. They would be custom invitations with all the wording hand written and could be designed just for your party. They would all be on card stock with a larger color card stock underneath. And it would be one stop shopping where I would address and mail out the invites. So would you pay for them, if so how much. If you bought invitations recently how much were they and would you rather of had them addressed and mailed for you. Do they look too homemade (these are not actually glued onto the brown card stock why they are sideways and whatnot, but just ideas). And any other feedback you might have. Also send this to anyone tht might have kids that would be interested in being guinea pigs or might have recently been in the market for invites would love to hear from people that would have some good feedback. Well thank you in advanced for your help and I'll let you know the progress if it gets going. Also if you have any clever name ideas for the cards...all i've come up with is katie's kards.

Wonderful idea! Anything made at home with love is beautiful. I would love to see some more girlie themes and maybe adult party themes as well, like Super Bowl and holidays. You could even do shower invitations. Go for it! Katie's Kards is very cute!

I think that's a great idea. I really like your invites. Especially the one that has my name on it.

I think they are good. You could let you client tell you what color of background paper to choose to make them their own. Good idea!

I meant to tell you way earlier... I LOVE these! The handmade route is so cute and clever. Can't wait to see where this takes you!

Katie,

I love the invitations. You are so talented! My favorite one is the race car but the cowboy one is very cute too (I didn't know you had a farm--HA) I think a good one to make would be a swim party theme, especially with summer coming. I can't wait to see what you come up with. Tressa
