I'm watching (kind of) Create and Craft while I'm pottering, and they're showcasing yet another CD of printable card toppers. This one is featuring art-work showing vintage ladies, but recently they've had fantasy, period dress, fairies, little girls and cutesy stuff as well.
And they seem to sell out like hot cakes. I can't help wondering who buys them, because I've never received a card featuring them, and I haven't noticed more than a handful posted on challenge sites.
Do you use them? Like them? Tell me your thoughts?

 They're just CDs containing loads of JPG files of ready coloured artwork. You print them out whatever size you want, and just use them in place of a stamped image on the front of a card. A bit like cutting up a store-bought card that someone's sent you, and recycling it, to be honest.
There's another show on right now which is all bridal and christening. This one reminds me of those dreamy oil paintings that they used to use to advertise Pears soap when I was a little girl!
Not my cup of tea.

sounds like clipart cd's repackaged. I was a HUGE! fan of clipart back in the day I still have all the cd's I used them on EVERYTHING. Most of the images in those days where black and white but just before they went out of style the color ones started coming out. I like coloring things myself but to each there own.
