On Tuesday, I went with my sister and niece to Paper Souce in Berkeley. My sister was looking for some envelopes and I was along for the eye candy that Paper Source always delivers. So, what an unexpected treat to find PS’s labels on rolls on big-time sale! There were only a few left and I bought most of them. I had no idea at the time what I’d do with them, but I find it hard to pass up a deal.

Tuesday evening my husband talked to me about needing a baby gift for a client. My mind went right to my new labels. I made some book plates with the rectangular labels.

I also made some coordinating flat notes for Millie Louise (is that the cutest name, or what?).

I gathered my wrapping supplies.

I used the 5″ label to seal the white bag, then tied it all up.
All wrapped up and ready to give.
So cute! Excuse my ignorance but I am curious – how do you print these? Do you have a special printer to print these out?
After meticulously measuring and making a template in Illustrator, then straightening out the labels to make the flat, I feed one sheet at a time through my Epson.
Love, love these, ever so cute.
Thanks for the head’s up! I read this and then went to my local Paper Source and snagged the last few rolls off the sale shelf. Oh, the possibilities! Thanks again!
Do tell… What did you get?
These labels are absolutely adorable! I am so glad I found you via your comment on Oh brooke :O)
Hi, I read your reply to Jaclyn and am intrigued…what do you mean by “straightening out” the stickers to make the “flat”? Sorry, English newbie here!
