Plastic Pouches for Greeting Cards

Hello!

I am considering making prints of my work available in the form of greeting cards. I'd be printing them myself (at first) to sort of test the market. I plan on approaching several gift stores around town to see if they are interested.

Does anyone know where I can find those little plastic pouches with the sticky, re-sealable flap? I'm talking about the kind people use to individually package cards and prints. I see them with cards everywhere, but I haven't managed to track them down on their own.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Re: Plastic Pouches for Greeting Cards

www.ClearBags.com is the source all the other resellers get them from, but you have to buy a minimum amount to be able to order. They have other plastic products, and specialized papers, too. If you want to make a smaller order, and need to order mats, too, www.documounts.com is a great place. They also have frames.

Wishing you good luck with it,
Karen
