If anyone has ordered the free stamp from vista print, what did you put on it? I mean the one with the name and 2 address lines, thanks :)

mine said "save this receipt place under cutlery tray so you know where it is"
and my pocket stamp said "thank you for your order"
 
Have you ordered from them before? I was looking into it and wondered how they are to deal with. I also was wondering how good their products were?

TIA

I saw your post about that. That was cool.
 
I've ordered a bunch of free stuff from there as well and agree 100% about the shipping is faster than they say. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that place! I wore the free t-shirt I made on there to my show this afternoon and everyone commented on it.

I have the 3 line stamp as well, and I put my name on the first line, phone number on the second, and PWS address on the third.
 
the t shirt i ordered had the blue apron on it and said
ask me about pampered chef
our opportunity offers freedom and flexibility
 
How awesome! My tshirt has the purple apron and says My job is one party after another! How do YOU like to party?? Independent consultant for The Pampered Chef
 
awesome ideas ladies!!! I need to place an order as I have a few "free" emails from them!
 
I have one with my name, address on one line, and PWS on the 3rd line.
I have another for my name, phone #, and PWS - this one is for stamping smaller items like recipe cards, etc.....

Except that I just got recipe cards made up from Vista - so I'll be using those for a while now!:thumbup:
 
I had one done to stamp checks for deposting and that is great as well.
 
I just got some business cards from them with my info on the front and a recipe on the back. They're SOOOOO pretty. I used one of their designs with an artichoke (Premium business cards). I also got some note cards to match the design, so I can use them to send notes to customers.

I have 2 sets of postcards with recipes on them (Cool Veggie Pizza on one, the Salad Chopper Salsa on the other), and I got a set (10) of the large magnets with Cool Veggie Pizza recipe.

I liked that idea so much - I did a postcard w/ Mom's Apple Crisp - that is one of my favorite Fall recipes. I think next I will do one with the Sprinkles Biscuits Bites (& the Italian Garlic variation). I LOVE the artichoke one - but I have 3 different sets of business cards now!:eek: I may do it just to offer as another recipe though!
