Return address.. making a FAB first impression!

Moving on now.. let’s talk return addresses.   My round self inking stamper has come in very, very handy with sending out invites, announcements, etc.  But some people would rather a traditional return address printed on their envelopes.  I have been surprising some customers with this service in the past & I have to say, it’s been a hit!  Here’s what’s available when it comes to return address printing.

Of course, if you choose to ‘pump up’ the return address using the “Sneak Peek” return address option, it will coordinate with the invite design.  See what I mean?  FAB first impression… worth the extra quarter :)

 

 

Now, how yummy does that look?  Just like peas ‘n carrots :)  Yummy prettiness :)

Okay…

So what a wonderful thing to stay up till 2am for… & a wonderful way to start my morning.  It totally shocks me when other “sites” post things about being a Christian & thanking God for getting her where she is today & then this… It happened again~!  Someone who is in business doing the (same) thing that I have been doing since 2003 (but she they started last year) is sending her their “friends” to get proofs, buy products, etc.  Can you please play fair here?

Ugh…  I just don’t understand!

Golf anyone?

Okay, so someone requested a golf plate design for her oldest son who is “too cool” for some of the younger designs out there for kids :)  I can’t blame him!!  This is what I came up with…

What do you think?

and I couldn’t leave the girls out…

Recognize the names (hehe) :)

Not done yet!

A few last minute Easter icons … Easter’s just a couple weeks away so I won’t be able to do a whole lot before then but I wanted to give you these options for a couple more days.  I won’t be able to guarantee plate/bowl/platter delivery before Easter after this Friday, April 3rd.  So HURRY & get your orders in :)  I am still taking orders for stickers… & don’t forget we now have circle stickers!!

Custom work..

Seems when it rains it pours for custom work.  I feel like sometimes I don’t have any custom work on the table & then wham… I am bombarded!  Here are a few new pretties that I’ve done over the weekend & backing up into last week…

 

 

 

Sample sale.. coming up!

Just wanted to post a little heads up today … I am cleaning out all my samples & will be listing them here for sale!  I am making room for new stuff, new samples, new designs… dustin’ them all off & getting rid of them!  Daisy’s here (my housekeeper) & this has got me in the cleaning spirit :)  Also, I just might be getting office space out of this house!!  Gotta get rid of the extra before I move as well.

I will be posting the sample sale here very soon so keep checking back.  Items on the block will be Posh Plates, Posh Bowls, MEmats, Kid Kups, My Favorites Binders, just to name a few.  Pics & prices coming up next :)

Spring’s coming… & so are some new goodies~

Here are a couple of new products that have been in the works over the Mardi Gras break.  I hope you like them!  Same concept – pick your pattern, icon & font to make it uniquely yours. 

First up “Prissy Pillows” poly/cotton Personalized Pillowcases:

 

These pillowcases are made of a cotton/poly blend & are super soft!  You pick the pattern to go around the outside & the icon to go in the center & then provide the name.  Standard pillowcase size 20” x 30” and are super snuggly!  Hundreds of design combinations available.  Here are some examples

 

 

Next up “MEME Mouse Pads”

9x7 mousepad personalized to your specs!  Again, hundreds of patterns, icons & fonts to choose from!

I hope you like the new additions.  Happy Friday everyone :)

*laurie

VERY excited :)

I know you are gonna just LOVE this new addition …

You love the Java Mama – now you are gonna love Aqua Mama!

This water bottle has so many wonderful features.  Allow me to introduce you to your new favorite companion:

• BPA FREE :)
• Holds 17 ounces of hot or cold bevies
• Foldaway straw
• Awesome loop on the lid (I’ve been swinging mine around for 2 days now – on my thumb, my forefinger, not a DROP leaked out)
• Non-skid bottom (this is actually important)
• FITS IN YOUR CAR’S CUP HOLDER!

Now, I am sure you can come up w/a ton of recipients for this bottle but I will name a few peeps who would LOVE to receive one:

• Graduates
• Dancing Girls :)
• Soccer Stars
• Teachers
• Doctors or Nurses
• Bus Driver
• Mailman
• YOURSELF!

A lot of places are carrying those aluminum/stainless/metal water bottles.  The reason I went with this version is b/c I cannot stand drinking out of something metal – coffee especially.  I feel like it makes the drink taste totally different & weird. 

So, there you have it.  My newest addition to this crazy, mad world of personalized, useful goodies!  It’s got to be useful to be added here to this store.  You won’t find anything here that is just a bunch of fluff… My goal is to provide you with a USEFUL, AFFORDABLE product that you can make your own :)

I almost forgot to show you “what’s new” from last week

Just got the surprise :)

Happy Tuesday!  I got the surprise I was waiting on today :)  Pics to be posted tomorrow..

Headed here tonight w/my girls to celebrate the big 3-4…

this needs to stop – this getting older thing.

& I WILL be having one (or two) of these

tune in tomorrow for more info on that surprise :)

I love it when….

competitors send their “Friends” on a mission!  Love it..  so sneaky :) 

Is imitation really the best form of flattery?  Humm..

On a lighter, more friendly note, I am waaay busy & waaay behind after my recent hiatus.  I’ve had all three kids sick with the flu & my laundry, well, that’s a joke! 

I am doing my best to catch up – if anyone needs assistance or order status, please don’t hesitate to email me.  Still working on some new things to hit the store very soon so keep checking back for more updates.

I need to blog more.. I am feeling way behind in the times :)  Facebook, check.  Blackberry, check.  More blogging.. well, give me more time!!  Another miserable thing I have been doing is this:

YUCK!! 

Have a great week!

Snapshot of what’s to come

Can you guess what this is?

I’m not telling just yet but it’s something new being added to the product line!  This has been in the works since last year.. just about to launch.  Stay tuned :)

Opening back up tomorrow (Tuesday) but a bit slow in coming back.. please be patient as I get my life straight around here.  I had a great break but am ready to get it all together & organized again..

Officially closed till March 3rd~

Well, the printers are all packed up & ready to go for the show this weekend.  If you plan to attend, please come see us!  I’m always behind in the “cave” but do poke your head in & say “hi!”  We are booth 913 – towards the back of the Convention Center, Halls I & J. 

With that said, I am officially closed until the Mardi Gras season is over… March 3rd I will reopen & be ready to go!  If you are in need of something before then, please do email me & I will see if I can squeeze you in.  Since I have a home business, I am lucky enough to be able to take this kind of time off to be with family & friends to celebrate our city’s rich cultural activities, festivals & well, just all-around fun events!

c-ya in March!!

Placemats (a.k.a. MEmats)

Without further delay, I wanted to FINALLY add the “MEmat” – It’s the latest addition to the MEware brand of products.  I thought I would dust off the wide format printer that I bought specifically for these OVER a year ago & try these out. 

These are long overdue.. I wanted to make sure I had the process perfected & I think you’ll be quite pleased with the outcome.  Although these pics don’t do them justice, they are bright, sturdy & adorable!  They come with one side imprinted but can be reversible for just 2 bucks more!  All you have to do is click “Add the 2nd side” & you’ll get an adorable reversible MEmat delivered to your doorstep. 

In my house, these have been used for everything from a paint splat mat, Play Doh mat, coloring mat, placemat at dinner time, a “let’s paint our nails” mat…. & even a dry erase “math facts” mat on the blank side!  So, you see.. these have many functions… my favorite, a colorful patchwork  of MEmats used in place of a tablecloth for my table!

I hope you enjoy these new patterns & this latest addition.  As an introductory offer, these will be just $13 bucks… add a 2nd side (same exact design) for $2 bucks more to make $15.  After February, these will go up to $15/$17 (2 sided).  So, stock up – get those bday presents out of the way.. these make a GREAT school bday party presents!
