I am planning to make cards to sell and was wondering if anyone has any experience with this. Can you recommend any online places to order basic white cards fairly inexpensively? I will decorate and embellish the fronts of course...

Michelle,
I make cards of every kind . . . have for years. However, I have never bought cards already ready for embellishments.

I buy cardstock and cut it to whatever size I need. I do buy my envelopes ready made and most of the time use the "invitation" size which takes a 1/2 sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 card stock. If I have 12 x 12 card stock I still cut it to fit and use the other pieces for other projects or to add to another card or whatever.

I also purchase the clear bags to put them in for sale so they don't get grubby with customer handling. I get those from clearbags.com . . . they have every size imaginable!!!!

I'm sorry I don't have info for basic cards already to use . . .I'll bet someone else has, though!

Most craft stores have cardstock with envelopes a seam in the center for folding---endless possibilities with imagination. MB
