I know! Card jackets!!!! We have discussed them many times but I'm still not finding what I want. I'm looking for a jacket that covers the entire card. I also want to be able to open the card and read the inside without getting it dirty. They have them for store cards but I can't locate them online in bulk. They are a more clear cellophane type material rather than a soft plastic-type sleeve. Not like a baggie. You slip the card in the sleeve and close the card. Any hints, suggestions???
The reason I want these is because my daughter is planning on selling her cards at an annual plant sale that we sponser every Mother's day weekend. I don't want people picking up dirty plants and then remembering they need a card and get the cards dirty. She uses a A-7 size card. I've seen the small tabs that cover the inside by a few inches but I want the entire card covered.
It's too late for this year as I'm on my way out the door to start selling but I want to get them for next year. Thanks for any help you can give me. Lois
Yes, I found and purchased some from http://www.clearenvelopesambershaw.com. I'm not affiliated with her nor do I know here; I'm just a very happy customer who is paying it forward. She gives free shipping and also donates proceeds to the troops.
OH...you are so sweet Allison....It takes a lot of $$$ to keep up my cards for the troops project and I am very grateful for each purchase...
Many blessings and a very Happy Mothers Day to each of you ladies here...
I suppose if you are desperate, you could use two regular 'clear envelopes' with the tacky strip and tack them together to create two facing pockets...
I use one and include a tag on the back side that describes how the card is decorated on the inside, what the words say, etc.
Thanks everyone for your advice. I appreciate your help. I will be checking out the sites and report back to you. I just got in from our plant sale and am going right to bed--have to be up early tomorrow. It's the last day of the sale and we are really busy. Thanks again. Lois
i love clearbags.com. i have ordered several times from them, and they have quality products. esp love their premium white envelopes. i also buy their clear boxes for card sets.
here is a link to their clear card jackets.
hope this helps.
I also am looking for a "hard to find" item related to the card jacket. I would like to display cards and/or card front samples in binder. Does anyone know a source for acrylic or plastic of some kind transparent sheets that would hold standard card fronts in pockets for display in a binder. I followed all the links listed above and did not see what I was looking for. I apologize in advance if this was not the appropriate thread to ask my question...Please, forgive I am a newbie!

As many are telling you, Clear Bags.com is an excellent comapny. The are very helpful when you call and very fast with shipping. I've been ordering from them for quite a while and have never been disappointed in the product or the service.
