We’re Going Green!

July 27th, 2009

Peadab Designs is proud to announce that we’re going green. We want to do all we can to protect the environment because we truly care about it, not just because it’s the thing to do. That’s why we’re switching our paper to 100# silk card stock that’s 25% recycled and FSC certified. FSC certification means that the product either comes from recycled material, forest that meet strict environmental and social standards, or a combination of both. Our silk card stock is unbelievably soft and smooth and we know you’ll just love it. We also carry 110# pearl card stock that isn’t recycled, but is wonderful for extra special occasions like birth announcements, baptism invitations or holiday cards. It has a beautiful shimmer to it and gives your announcements and invitations an elegant look.

Our print process is also environmentally friendly. We use a digital press that uses vegetable oil based inks, no toxic chemicals and uses less waste than traditional offset presses.

We just want to do our part to make our planet a safer place to live. We hope you chose Peadab Designs to announce your special event.

Peadab Designs is Looking for Help!

June 24th, 2009

If there are any moms out there who would like to earn some extra money (and who wouldn’t), we want to hear from you. If you have lots of friends, are outgoing, and want to earn some easy money, we have a great opportunity for you! All you have to do is tell your friends (pregnant or not), neighbors, teachers, or anyone else who might need birth announcements, baby shower invitations, note cards, birthday invitations, religious invitations, etc. about Peadab Designs and our great products. If they place an order with us, we’ll pay you a commission. The more orders you send our way, the higher your commission will be.

In this tough economic climate, we’re trying to think outside the box. With the high cost of magazine advertising and Google AdWords advertising, we thought we’d try something a little different. So, here we are, asking for your help!

If interested, please email us at info@peadabdesigns.com.

Lavender Baby Shower Invitation

April 29th, 2009

I recently designed a baby shower invitation for a customer who wanted something a little different. She chose the Simply Stunning Baby Feet shower invitation, but changed the colors to lavender card stock with sparkly silver baby feet stamp.

It came out adorable and the silver stamp has different colored sparkles in it that shimmer in the light.

Vacation schedule

December 3rd, 2008

We’ll be closed from December 12-16 for a much-needed vacation. Yes, that’s right. We are finally going on our first vacation in 7 years! Hard to believe our last vacation was our honeymoon. But life happens. Marriage, the death of my dad, buying a new house, loss of my job, 2 rounds of in-vitro, getting pregnant, and having a baby with a defective lung… have all put our vacation plans on hold for the last 7 years.

But, we’re very excited to now be taking our son to Disney World for his 4th birthday. We’ll post some pictures here later.

We’ll reopen December 17 for any more last-minute holiday orders for Christmas cards or personalized stationery — they make great gifts!

Till next time,

Extended Deadline for Holiday Cards

December 3rd, 2008

We’ve extended our holiday deadline to December 8th. (It seems everyone is waiting till the last minute this year). That’s our deadline if you want to guarantee that your recipients will receive your cards before Christmas. We will certainly take them after that, we just can’t guarantee that your cards will be delivered by Christmas. But that’s okay too. We can always change the text to read “Wishing you a Happy New Year”.

Also, we would love to get some feedback on how we can improve our service. Do you want to see different designs, different sizes, etc.? Please let us know!

New Holiday Designs and New Lower Prices are Here!

November 23rd, 2008

We’ve been adding a lot more holiday designs, plus we just lowered our prices on all our holiday cards. We know everyone is cutting back on spending right now, but holiday cards are a relatively inexpensive treat to send to family and friends.

Please remember, all of our designs can be modified (changing colors, fonts, adding more photos, etc.). Plus, we love to do custom designs. If you don’t see something you like, let us know and we’ll do our best to come up with a beautiful design for you — no extra charge.

Thanks and happy shopping,
Lisa Della Bella

New Look and New Designs!

October 26th, 2008

I know it’s been a while since I’ve last written in my blog, but I’ve been here all along working hard to get new designs up along with a new look to the website. I’ve tried to make PeadabDesigns.com as user friendly as possible so please let me know if anyone has any suggestions!

I also included instructions on the ordering pages on how to pay through PayPal, which has confused some people in the past. Let me just say again, you do not need an account with PayPal to order. You simply click on the “continue” button near the credit card logos on the left side of the page and enter your payment information there.

Another change I made recently is that I’ve decided to allow customers to order invitations and announcements in any quantity rather than in multiples of 25 as I previously did (and as most other online birth announcement companies do). I know how tough the economy has been on everyone and I want to make it easier for people to order custom announcements and invitations from us.

If you ordered from us in the past and were happy with your purchase, I hope you will pass on our name to your family and friends. Til next time…
