I'm all for the more items, the better - as long as CHERUBS doesn't have to fork out the cash upfront to pay for stuff and then I'm storing items in boxes for years to come and am in charge of all the shipping and orders too. Been there, done that! I'd rather spend my CHERUBS time doing other things.
Which is why I *love* cafepress! They do all the work, we just upload the graphics and collect a few dollars with each purchase. About $50 a year in charges it all we have to pay. If we don't sell a lot of stuff, we're not out any money.
The ribbon magnet store is doing the same for us - without charging CHERUBS a dime. But then, CHERUBS isn't making any money off of those ribbon magnets either. But that's ok if it's getting awareness out. If we can find a keychain company willing to do that too, then I'm all for that also.
So ribbon shaped stickers.... love the idea, but not too keen on the overhead. Round ones we print ourselves are an awesome idea. Now... if someone can find printable ribbon shaped stickers, that would be great!
Does the ribbon store make stickers? If they did, that way members of CHERUBS could buy their own.
If we can save CHERUBS money....that makes total sense...
I think when you have time Dawn...please come up with a design that we can use on plain labels...members can choose if they want to do them or not.
I take it Cafepress does not do keychains? That would be ideal.....THEY do all the work....we upload the graphics and collect a few dollars with each purchase. Have you ever asked them about keychains?
I think you should tell us what works best for you and CHERUBS and maybe do a vote? Just my thoughts.
:) Dawn I think that would be a wonderful idea.
Cafepress has large stickers, the ribbon magnet place doesn't sell stickers at all. I know Avery labels has round small stickers. I can design for those and everyone can print their own. Or if anyone has some free time to research a sticker printer, let us know! :)
Dawn- Thank You. I think that idea is great.
I am sure you will let us know which labels to buy right?
I wanted to Thank You for the letter from the membership department-it was so informative. It was really awesome.
I agree with you Stephanie - I loved the email! It stated everything all in one place so I can stop rooting around all over the forums for info!
I did download 2 sets of return address labels for mark and I. I also made some for my dad. The Jolene made me some as well..
I think the next time I see the labels on sale somewhere I'm going to buy tons of them and print these off for family and friends.
I do love the stamp idea. But i think i'm w/ Kara, I would probably only buy a few sheets.
The stickers is a great idea as well
I think I found a way to do the postage stamps without the stress of selling a ton of them at once. I did a search and found zazzle.com (and I think this is the site you told me about, Kara?) and they do postage stamps. They also do a lot of other neat things that cafepress doesn't do, like 3D photos, ties, and the keychains some of you asked about! :)
Looks like Barb and I will be busy with zazzle.com too! :)
I was just re-looking on this site and wondered if you were still looking to get CHERUBS stamps made? Keychains?
I am not trying to make more work for you and Barb- but was just wondering :D
I can make a keychain? It won't have the CHERUB symbol. But I can make a Cherub.
Speaking of stamps. Where did you and Lise get those return address labels? Did you make them or buy them?
You can go to the downloads section here on the site and choose from a bunch and print them at home!!!!
Let's see that keychain Kate!!!! :P
Hold on--I'll go to the exact spot and get back. I know where they are-in mind.
Go to On-line parent support
-download info for parents
-under fundraising & awareness info & activities
You will find the address labels there!
You are the best! I can't wait to print them out!!
I had Jolene design one for me. I have that one plus another I made. Yo can fool around w/ the designs.
Aren't they cute??
They are!! I can't wait to send out bills now . . . I can't believe I just said that LOL
HA! I said the same exact thing to mark!!! Well, he writes the checks but i wanted to put the label on
did the stamps ever get loaded onto zazzle.com? i can't seem to find them
No the stamps have not been loaded on zazzle.com yet.
Dawn is doing TONS of work right now and I know she will look into this as soon as she can.
Now we have to wait with excitement!!!
thanks for keeping me updated Steph!
CHERUBS CDH Awareness Postage Stamps finally avaiable!
http://www.zazzle.com/cherubs
We even have some you can customize with your cherub's photo or your favorite cherub character
I just checked out the stamps and that is such a great idea. My aunt ordered a few of those key chains after Faith passed away. I love mine and have it on my key chain!
Hey Dawn, just so you know there's a typo in the customizable stamp. It should read "cdhsupport.org" not "cdshupport.org"
Thought you'd want to know before people just started ordering.
Oh my goodness! Good catch, Melissa. Thank you so much for making us aware of that. I've looked at that stamp over and over and never caught it.
Sorry..I should have started with saying how cool the stamps are. I didn't mean to come off as critical or anything. I already ordered two sheets, anything I can put this child's face on is a no-brainer gift for my Mom.
You didn't come off as critical at all! I'm so, so glad you caught that blooper and let us know. Kudos!!!!
Nice catch! I didn't even see it!
I contacted Dawn about it. She's really busy right now with the upcoming conference/ball so it might be a spell before she can get the stamp corrected. Hang tight!
So I got my Michael stamps, and wow are they cute! I gave some to Michael's primary nurse and OT from our PICU and they went crazy (though both said they didn't want to mail them because they liked them so much). My Mom is going to love them.
AWESOME!
I bet they are great!!!
It is such an awesome stamp and to be able to put your babies picture on them--makes them so SPECIAL!!!
LOVE IT MEL!!!!!!!!!
