New Donna Salazar Lines

So here's what's going on with Corporate Impressions... Donna Salazar is releasing new paper lines for this summer's CHA show and we are well under way to get them printed and ready for our distributor Product Performers.

Right now we have 2 paper lines set up for print, "Kiss the Cook," and "Do You See..." Each paper line will have six double sided 12" x 12" papers, coordinating stamps and kits. Donna of course will be including journal cards, ribbon strips and tags in her new lines. We can't leak any sneak peak images yet but when the time is okay we will!

Here's a look at some of Donna's last papers, sold through Product Performers: Grandma's Garden, Trunk in the Attic and Memory Mosaics.

The Rule of Thumb is that a Green One Doesn't Hurt

Over the past few years our society has seen a big shift in political agendas around environmental issues. This increased attention has brought on a new wave of "Going Green" activists. At this point there is no way you could have missed the trend unless you are in fact living outside our Ozone layer.

The new green way of life has the potential to benefit all companies trying to show their dedication to the environment through corporate social responsibility. Whether your company is looking to switch to recycled, post-consumer paper products or promote your brand with environmentally conscious products - Corporate Impressions has all the tools to help. Check out these two eco-friendly promotional products.

Distribute promotional items with function and convenience, its use will go a lot further and so will your spent dollars.

Zutter Product Catalogs

One of our annual summer projects is to update the Zutter Innovation product catalogs and order forms. Along with those materials we design and print supplement pages and flyers with Zutter's newest summer releases... printed just in time for the summer CHA show. Zutter Innovation specializes in craft and scrapbooking tools, best known for the Bind-it-All machine.

Along with printed informational pieces, Corporate Impressions has also designed several packaging pieces for Zutter ranging from backer cards, boxes and tin containers.

Cathie Allan's Position-It

One of our most recent clients, Scor-it All, owned by HAMMONDSgroup just had us print new packaging inserts for a new product they were releasing. Cathie Allan's Position-it will be your new favorite stamping tool! This non-slip guide will help you align and position images on your projects. Also printed for Scor-it-All were sub-positioner packaging inserts, taking the product even further with additional tools to make this your go to tool for stamp layouts.

Corporate Impressions does a large variety of packaging to inserts, box design and prototype design. Contact us today to talk about how we can complete your products!

Scrapbook Kits - Instruction Booklets

For all you scrapbookers!... Corporate Impressions worked with designer @donnasalazar to produce instruction booklets for her Trunk in the Attic Scrapbook Kit. The instruction booklet comes with all the nitty gritty details on how you too can create this adorable book of memories. The kit is made up two of Donna's paper lines, Grandma's Garden and Trunk in the Attic. Check out more by Donna Salazar on her blog.



The scrapbook kit is carried all over in specialty retail stores. Wholesalers can contact Product Performers for details on how to carry this product. Corporate Impressions also produced scrapbook kits from designer Teresa Collins for Product Performers whole-sellers.

Catalog Season is here!

Catalog season is here! Every summer our client Product Performers releases a wholesale catalog of all things scrapbooking. This is typically the biggest project we undergo each year and it is just about time to get started on the 2010 edition. Last years catalog topped out at 340 pages and each version just seems to keep growing and growing.

If your company is looking into catalog printing, please let us know. We are very experienced designing and printing all sized catalogs. From 4 page mailers to 340 paged retail catalogs we have done it all. Catalog design is very time consuming so we suggest... don't wait until the last minute!

If we are a little slow on our blogging this upcoming month you will know why! Craft and Hobby Association is having their summer trade show in July so we will be up to our ears in scrapbook themed designing and printing. Keep you updated!
