Book Description
Picture your painting on the front of a greeting card, ready to brighten someone's day. You can make it happen! This book shows you not only how to create beautiful cards, but how to sell them, too.

In 20 step-by-step demonstrations, you'll discover imaginative techniques for painting cards in watercolor, colored pencil and acrylic. You'll also find plenty of friendly business advice--everything from how to price and package your own cards to the fine points of submitting your work to greeting card companies.
