What's Missing?

For my Customers
In anticipation to the soon to be released 2009-2010 Stampin' UP Idea Book and Catalog, I get myself ready for some goodies that I give to customers along with the catalog. Here are a few ideas that will help us to get our customers excited about the new book ( me! I have been excited eversince I got my book).

The shipping labels will go in the back of the book. It has all the important information that my customers need to get hold of me. I stamped the Razzle dazzle flower to go with the book's design.

I copied this wish list from Stampin' UP resources and I enclosed it with the new book. I put two pages, put a round tab using the IN Colors and attach a magnet in the back where hopefully it will hang nicely in the fridge or a magnetic board where hopefully it will always be visible.


I made this IN Colors Tag using the large tag punch to punch the new colors, and with their computer generated names. I also used the flower from the Razzle Dazzle and used the stamp pads to show the stamped colors. On the ring, I put all the ribbons, again showing off the In Colors.
These catalog tab indexes (total of 8) will go nicely with the new catalog . I also used the In Colors for this and I just added two colors that will go nicely with the rest.

Last but not the least, I put my labels on the pen. It is really a cheap way to advertise your business, plus our customers will need a pen to fill out their Wish List.

So, What's Missing ?

The new Stampin' UP catalog , of course.

Thanks for stopping by.

Have a wonderful weekend !!!!

just get away from it all and have a little peace and quiet.
So, I made a bunch of this for my etsy shop. I incorporated some textures and masculine colors.

RECIPE:
