How many?

[willwork4stamps]

I'm making some thank you cards for my son's teacher. I'm putting them in a stationary box tied with ribbon. My question is how many should be included in the set? Four? Six? The cards have multiple layers and lots of stamping.

Here's a link to the card: Thank you cards by willwork4stamps at Splitcoaststampers

Thanks!

When I give away gift sets, I tend to do sets of 6 or 8.

Happy stamping!

Since they are fancy and take a lot of stamping and work, I would say 6 would be very nice.

I made some sets of 6 at Christmastime that were well received.

it says still pending!
i'll check it out later!
but i would say 8 in the set, that is what i usually put in a set.

Thanks for the input! I'm surprised it still says pending -- I just checked it before I posted because I didn't want that to happen. Oh, well, thanks for responding!

At least 6. 8 would be great but if it's too much work 6 is just fine.

First let me say- those are beautiful.
I usually give 6 or 8, but even 4 of those would be great. Don't sweat it!!!

Very, very pretty card.

If someone gave me 6 or even less of a nice card like yours I would be very pleased! Good job.

Beautiful colors---really a lovely card! I would say that a set of 6 would be nice! :0)

They are gorgeous!!
Also if you are running out of time, you could still make some very nice cards with just *one* of the elements of your main card. Say a strip or circle of petal prints glued to some rose or olive c/s. A "set" doesn't have to be all the same..

Good luck!

Thanks! And, Betsy, I had that listed as a question before I posted, then I deleted it -- the part about just using the same colors and moving the elements around to make similar, but different, cards.

I think 6 seems to be the consensus, so that's what I'll go with.

I like this idea - a set of 6 similar in style cards would be great!
