Next up, we have a logo design or a write up from my friends at GhostRighters. Have you ever not been able to find the right words for your web pages or marketing materials? Well, this is the answer for you.... let someone else write it for you...I've used them numerous times and it's a life saver for me. Next up we have leather paper album from Simply Color Lab...they will print up one of your favorite images on each of their paper products and include it in one book for you to show your clients. And last but not least we have 50-Bi-fold press cards from my lab PPS...we sold over 3,000 graduation cards last season and they were all printed here!
