Verses or no verses?

Well, I am in a quandary today.
I have noticed in my card store, that some cards are getting loads of clicks, but they don't result in a sale.
That seems to indicate that buyers quite like the front of the card, but not the inside sentiment.
I have tried putting verses in, not putting verses in, just putting a couple of lines of good wishes etc.
Has the flowery greetings card verse gone out of fashion?
Should I just put a couple of words inside the cards?
I guess I'll have to do some research & see what everyone else is selling & why.
If you do take a look at my card store, see what you think & leave me a comment. (Not too rude eh!)
Have a good week.

Selling Greeting Cards

Hello and welcome  to my blog update.
The French countryside has received some welcome rain this week, and this has also allowed me to stay indoors and make more greetings cards.
I now have over 300 in my store and I am adding to them daily.
They have started to sell all over the world, and with luck, the word will go round about them & they will become even more popular.
We all have differing tastes in greetings cards, whether they be birthday cards, anniversary cards, thank you cards or cards for unusual occasions.
With this in mind, I try to make a wide variety of styles and verses, and once I have a thousand cards in my store, hopefully, I will have covered a large part of them.
I can also change the card occasion to suit the customer, so in essence, I probably have ten times the amount of cards available than are actually showing in the store front!
I began with my photographs, but have now also added digital art and
hand painted cards.
I would love to know what people think of them, so feel free to leave me a comment about them on this blog.
Have a good day.
