They can be brailled on different colored colors of card stock instead of
dull, braille paper!  I do not know how to, but you could use glitter, also
stars, how about a chat on the matter?

Hi Cathy 

I've been looking online for instructions. I'm really enjoying this!

I'm thinking of ways to make cards with this but also thinking of ways to
make them colourful so sighted folks will enjoy them. Then, I'd like to try
selling them at Christmas time or whatever as a fundraiser to help with my
adoption.

Hi Michelle,

That is how we made our greeting cards to sell at convention: using the good
old braille writer!  

We also sold some pictures created on the braille writer for kids to color
in the picture.
Do you have a book of instructions or do you create your patterns yourself?

Personally, as one of the greeting card makers, I can tell you that creating
those braille cards was fun and easy.
