Hi!!
I just recieved some catalogs from a consultant who is ending her business. I am trying to figure out a way to cover over her info, without it looking "bad".
I have my printed labels, and blacked out her info underneath, which could work, but any other suggestions so it doesnt look, um crappy?
THanks in advance!
Nicole
 
I would use a bigger label for my info that would completely cover her label.

Thanks!!
My labels cover her info, but when I clack out her info..you can see that thru the label.
Just trying to make them as "pretty" as possible!
Thanks!
 
Use white-out (the correction tape is the easiest) to cover her info and then stick your label on top of it. I do this all the time at work. :)

Never thought of that!!
thanks!
 
put a blank label over hers and then your info label. This won't leave lines like the white out might.

Again, thanks for the info!!
Somehow, her labels are longer than mine. I make my own, hers look "official".
The label and white out idea are both working great!!
Thanks again!
