Catch onto the Magic

October 28, 2008Fall has arrived and so has the new Disney Tinkerbell Movie! Little girls everywhere can now see their favorite character in her own land and how she came to be the cutest and most inspiring fairy of all. Available on Disney DVD and Blu-ray.

My daughter has been waiting breathlessly for months and today she finally had the chance to see the movie. It was as adorable as you could expect. Disney never misses a beat and never disappoints. We all loved it! So much that we are sending out invitations for a little mini screening at our home complete with popcorn and red licorice.

Here at Miss 'N Nick Designs, we are also excited to see that our magical fairy invitations and note cards are flying off the shelves of the studio and retail stores alike. Help make your child's party one of magic and fairies. A time she will never forget. Order today and have them within a week (or less). Don't miss out on the fun.

2008 National Stationery Show

WE TOOK A BITE OUT OF THE BIG APPLE!

This was Miss 'N Nick Designs first year at the National Stationery Show in New York. And we are proud to say we were met with much enthusiasm and interest along with a good amount of orders! Our client base is growing as is our line and our excitement about the future of Miss 'N Nick.

Never having seen the show in New York, it was quite a whirlwind. The show is so massive and there is so much to do and see. I didn't get to see nearly as many of the booths that I wanted to see as I was so busy in my own booth meeting people, taking orders and introducing the Miss 'N Nick style. I loved every minute of it even if my poor feet did not. There is A LOT of standing.

Since this was our first year at the show and we didn't quite know what to expect, we kept the booth fairly simple and went with our signature bright pink to make the display pop and catch the passers' eye.

We also unveiled our new Holiday invitations and photo cards. Look for these to be featured here on the site and in stock by the first of July. I can't wait.

The whole experience was so exciting and we feel our first year was a success. One of the best parts was meeting some of the many other talented designers and manufacturers who offered not only insight and advice but warm smiles and a great sense of friendship and camaraderie.

If you were at the show and didn't have a chance to pop by, please feel free to call or email with any questions. We are happy to assist in any way.

Start Spreading the News!

We will be in New York in just two weeks! Yes the National Stationery Show starts two weeks from today -- May 18-May 21.

This will be our first year exhibiting and we are so excited for the opportunity. Not only will we have the opportunity to meet some of our Reps we have only spoken on the phone with, but we will be able to meet some of the competitors and on the supply side look for cool new ideas, gem stones, colored envelopes, glitter. I am sure there will be much to devour and get information on.

If you will be attending the trade show, please stop by and pay us a visit. We are in booth 1166. I can't wait to be there. The energy of the city and all the new contacts we will make is so thrilling.

Hope to see you there!

Do you ever... feel just a little giddy when seeing a letter or card has come in the mail? We ALL get the bills -- plenty of them. And junk mail? Most could start wallpapering the house with the amount that arrives. But how about a little note?

Surprise your friend or a distant relative by sending a card for no reason other than you care and have been thinking of them. Imagine the smile on their face when they open the card. Priceless. And if your grandmother is anything like mine, she doesn't have internet and email. We keep close to so many via this cyber world but what about them? Send a note to your grandmother and include a great "funny" clip or magazine article you think she would like.

Staying in touch is not just on a computer. Reach out the old school way and make someone's day.

SEND A CARD TODAY!

Welcome!

Miss 'N Nick Designs is proud to announce the launch of our new website! Thank you to Staci and her team at Quirky Bird for a wonderful job! We just love our new look.

Last March, Miss 'N Nick was just an idea and I started showing the first six (yet-to-be-produced) designs just to see what kind of response I would get. We now have over 50 invitations and cards in stock, sales reps, stationery in retail stores across the country, a brand new storefront on-line and a busy two months ahead as we prepare to exhibit at the National Stationery Show in New York!

It has been a whirlwind to say the least but such an exciting adventure. We are so happy with the current growth and hope your like our product as much as we enjoy creating it. Keep checking back here for more news and more product updates.

Cheers!
Nicole
