SOMEBODY STOP ME!!!

Yes, this is yet another post on Vista Print! I just had to share some more products that I got for free. When I get the emails from VP with free products, I say to myself things like, "Donna? What can you do with a free magnet?" How about this:
This is a magnet for a car door. It's the small sized one. I am going to put this on the garage door that leads into the kitchen to display Caroline's art. And my crafty sister, Denise, gave me this idea.....25 free magnets for Caroline's preschool class (fellow WEE School moms, don't laugh or think I'm trying to suck up!!!):


Caroline had given her teachers a little first day of school treat with a card from her saying how excited she was to start the new year. Today both ladies raved about her note cards:



I hesitantly told them I got them for free at Vista Print. Ladies, you'll be getting some VP products at some point this year.

This must have been the order with Caroline's name on it. I copied Nikki and got a little tote for Caroline...for FREE:

And because we LOVE to suck up in our family, look at this notepad I ordered for Caroline's piano teacher:

We got her another style, too, but you get the idea. Thanks, Jessica, for the idea!

And another freebie was a free banner. Now what could we do with a free banner? Well, each time Roy comes home from a trip, we have a homecoming dinner for him, so here is our new Homecoming Dinner Banner:

Kristy, you need to get a banner made for when Edward comes home.

So that's it for this order. I haven't received any emails from Vista Print for a while, so maybe that's a good thing!

Super cute ideas!! How much do you typically pay in shipping??

Nikki said...

The title of the post made me laugh. I knew right away what the post was about.

I love all your stuff. I dont remember seeing that banner design? I love the colors and might be a good idea for Adam's room...OK, somebody stop me!

GREAT idea on the magnets!

I cant wait to get my tote bag and see how it looks.

LOVE your items. I got some of mine in the other day and I was a little disappointed. I rushed through my order and didn't do my Thank you post cards correctly. Next time I'll know. I got a banner too and it's pretty nice quality. You did good!

What great things and I have Christmas on the brain already...crazy, I know. But, I am trying to plan what to give to the teachers and think VP has some great products. I love what you selected..way to go!

sara said...

I think I'll be coping some of your ideas! I just received my first order yesterday and was SO excited.

Denise said...

Have you already received your stuff? No fair. I have orderd 3 orders and only got my first order. Still waiting on my other two.

Denise said...

BTW, cute stuff!

I love your stuff. Especially the banner! I just did another order, too. I might be slightly out of control. For some reason, I can't find that monogram in the tote bags. I wonder if it pulls up different options for different peeps?

BTW, just read your FB status and you might need to make a magnet that says "This is what Roy Austin's hands have gotten into lately." to put pictures of his Houdini acts on the fridge!

Jessica said...

Great ideas! I think I might just have to copy some of them! I just made an order where I got a tote bag for Caleb's cello music. It has a cello on it and says "Caleb's Cello Music". You could get one for Caroline's piano bag too!

I'm making another order soon :)

jane said...

I don't get it!!! Nothing is free! Cute things though!!!!

Sue U said...

You got me started, too, Donna! Ordered some business cards for everyone at Masterworks School of the Arts and I'm their new favorite boss! :) I can't get over how great their things are ---and for just shipping charges?!?! Your things are adorable....thanks for getting us started!

Happy Four said...

I am checking your blog and all I could see was the heading and thought...wait, Donna, got another order, but I then saw it was your post from yesterday. I have to get my second order in with VP this weekend...MUST DO IT!

AK's WEE school teachers are getting Vista Print stuff for Christmas, too - already done and in the closet! Ben's impossible to buy for Grandmother is getting free notecards. What else does an 82 year old need?

kristy said...

Super cute stuff Donna. I will have to get Edward a welcome home banner. That is so cute. I just don't have the patience or creativity like you do. Hope you guys had fun at Tweetsie. Glad you finally made it.

I haven't gotten any coupons through email yet. Got Sophias business cards in today. So cute!

Kristi said...

SO cute - I'm amazed!
