Hi Christine
I am sure you'll be fine, what have you planned, lots of tea and wine to get the chatting and the purse strings flowing?

I've no idea what happens at a card party? only really been to a naughty nightie party before and that was so funny!

But i'm sure it will be a great success, let us know won't you.

Hi Christine, I'm sure you'll be fine. Just take a deep breath and go for it.
Remember to take your peel offs with you.
When I used to sell mine someone always wanted a greeting adding to a card.
Oh and a note book and pen for taking orders.
Good luck

Anna

Wow well done for doing that, just think of the money and the
goodies you can buy for your next project. I'm sure you will
be fantastic, it's normal to feel nervous the first time at anything
but we are all willing you on. Good luck

I know how you feel, as I used to do tupperware years ago, and was so nervous at my first party, but I think this is a great idea, I hope you get lots of orders and MORE parties booked, well done

Wishing you lots of luck Christine - I've never held a card party but I have been to one and the lady did very well out of it. Like the ladies say take a pen and paper and get ready for those requests.
