Gee, Ellen, you'd think you'd show a little enthusiasm. :)
 
I think that is really cute and a really good way to make people actually think about it and it's unique. :)

I about started crying! I went to print it out and it wont work! My computer has never been the same since it crashed a couple weeks ago...:cry:

It looks great Rae! I can't wait to use it too!
 
Rae that is a FABULOUS IDEA. I am sure you will be the next one to talk at Conference about an idea you got and implemented it!! Looking forward to using it at a craft fair next weekend.

Okay, so my booklet is really paying off. Since I started using it, every one of my maybes have become either "yes" or "yes but not now." Seriously, every one. (Well, every one I've gotten hold of. There are, I believe, 3 that I haven't spoken with yet.)

Success!
 
I am really wanting to use this, but I am having a problem.
I printed a few copies off to make into the booklet. When I make the booklet all of my pages are out of order except the first page. What am I doing wrong? Any ideas?

If you use the PDF, it doesn't lend itself to simply printing, as you discovered. I print mine in Publisher. However, if you don't have the right Publisher program, that won't help.Why not take the ideas and create one that's all Leslie? You can put your spin on it.
 
Oh my goodness, I LOVE it! Those smiley's are sooo cute too!
 
I love it!!!! The idea is great...it answers every question they would have...Thanks for the idea :)
 
Rae it is awesome!!!
 
Rae-

I only have 4 words for you....

YOU ARE A GENIUS!
