How do you store card samples for easy viewing? I would like something like an album format, as opposed to box o' cards. Unfortunately the average note card is one-quarter the size of an 8.5x11" sheet of paper, or 4.25x5.5", which is just 0.25" too big to fit 4x6" photo pages. Full-size page for one card seems a waste of album space. Any ideas? I guess I could get a page for 5x7" photos, 2/page. I've seen them in the Light Impressions catalog. Does anyone else keep a card "portfolio"?

I have just started making cards for the store & found a great deal on
5"x7" resealable, clear bags from Fusion Concepts. Their website is pretty useless BUT their phone customer service & delivery is superb - 1 888 661 2650. If I remember correctly they had a special on & it was $2.75 for 100 bags + S&H. These bags are good quality & I highly recomment them. Once your cards are in these bags you could attach them to any kind/size of book/paper you wanted. Hope this helps, LizI've also found a sheet of plastic pockets that I put the cards in to display also.

I put my cards in two to a sleeve, back to back.

Try the clear plastic sleeves made for pages that go in 6"x6" scrapbooking albums. You can can get presentation covers to fit them, or trim down regular 8-1/2"x11" ones.
Thanks to everyone for all the ideas! Something to think on....
