Makes it easier for the host. No picking and choosing the design you like best, or know that one of your friends will. Also, my composition skills are so poor, when I hit on a design, I don't want to come up with a different one. I realize that is just me, and you have a valid point. If I were selling something or making something unique for a friend, I would probably not make pieces the same. But even as I was making all my book pages, I became aware they were all starting to look basically the same. <br /><br />Many people prefer either warm or cool colors. They tend to buy colors that suit them and their personality. This buyer probably bought the black and red card because the colors appealed to her. I would have loved seeing those two colors together. I don't get a lot of black cardstock or scraps sent my way, and I am always out of black paint, so my pages are usually vanilla or bland. <br /><br />As for this card, it is lovely. And you say you are not an altered artist, but I don't know what else you would call yourself. You altered the paper by inserting a window, and your card is not the usual shape of a card. OK, my diatribe is over.
