My first cardselling!

I had just had my first cards sold!
We have a neighborhood center, and they had the first creative event.
I read about it, and well, I think I give it a try. The price is 8 euro to have a table. So I just have to search fitting envelope, boxes and enveloboxes, and thinking about prices. I started with 1 euro, the most cards, to 4 euro for a few cards.
Friday round 18.00 hours we can set up the table, my daughter helped me, she was very surprised about the amount of cards I have :).
The event was Saturday, from 10.00 hrs till 16.00 hrs. I arrived, a little bit nervous, and looked at the table, it looked very nice. I was nervous because, selling my cards, unknown people. Bit shy person I am.
But, the person who had organised it, did not think about Whitsunday. I think lots of people have a short break away, the weather was nice, so there came not a lot of people to the event, pity enough. But a few did came.
All the people who looked at my cards say they are very nice!! So my day was very good ;). Some people say I do not buy I make my own cards.
And then, a woman came, looked and.........
yes yes yes!! my first sale ever!! 1 euro and she is happy with the card.
Later I sold 2 cards to a woman, total I have sold 5 cards for 1 euro each and one card for 1,50 euro!
I am so happy that people liked my cards. And I have said to the woman who organised it that I like to do it again when they have an event.
And they will start it for one time every month, starting in maybe September.
And they like it if I will come.
nice is it not?
