I'm Michelle Cox -- the owner of Lipstick to Crayons. I’m also a Mom to three kids (a teen, tween and toddler), a professional writer (www.michellemcox.com) and a blogger (www.fromthemom.com). And I love to save money (and help you do the same) via frugal deals and steals, coupons and other thrifty practices. My freelance writing business allows me to enjoy the great balance of being a stay-at-home/work-at-home mom, while also making time for blogging, running (ran the Chicago Marathon twice) some amateur photography and scrapbooking. I’m a St. Louis native, although I have lived outside of the city and the state. A few of my passions are amateur photography, scrapbooking and attending kids' sporting events.

FedEx Launches Design & Print Center

I remember the hassles of creating my first set of business cards when I started my freelance writing business in 1995 — there was NOTHING easy about it. But FedEx Office recently launched a new Design & Print Center and invited me to create business cards and cards for Lipstick to Crayons, and it was easy AND fun.

The new system lets you design and customize personal, professional or family stationery, calling cards, business cards, notecards, address labels and more in just minutes online or in stores around the country. I literally created my cards in less than 15 minutes using the custom business card option here.  You can upload a picture or logo, or use one from their gallery, and the wizard walks you through the process step by step.

If you don’t want to think at all, you can use the templates here.  They offer about 3,000 designs from which to choose.  

 

 

As a freelance writer and communications consultant, I know the importance of distinguishing myself and having custom printed, professional materials.  But I didn’t want to spend the money to have someone design a logo for me. The Fed Ex gallery of images offered me what I think is a perfect image for my cards. Check them out:

Additionally, for all you bloggers out there, products available through the Design & Print Center can help you build your blogging brand. For instance, you can put your blog’s logo on calling cards for networking events and conferences. Business cards start at just $29.99.

The Design & Print Centers also offer lots of products for the hostess with the mostest — you can  create custom menus and hostess gifts for a dinner party or design kid-friendly stationery you can use for a kid party or to help kids share special news with family.
