  • Price tags for a craft show or boutique:

  • Earring display cards
  • Or even MAKE a pair of earrings out of them

  • Freebies
  • Holiday cards
  • Promotional mailing cards
  • Necklace display cards
  • Party invitation
  • Birth announcement or shower invitation

  • Playing cards
  • Luggage tags
  • Thank you notes

    oooh I just got a new batch of moo cards delivered the other day. I used mine as hang tags attached to mini hand made boxes (thanks to the great tutorial by mary) of my magnets. They were part of my 100+ contributions to the December Sampler.

    I use Moo cards as care instruction tags on my leather items. http://www.flickr.com/photos/73083777@N00/1657133895/ So much easier and nicer looking than me hand writing the tags.

    I forgot, I have the Moo stickers too. I wrap all of my sold items in tissue paper and I use the stickers to hold the paper closed.

    For those that asked about the Christmas Indeed art, It reads "Mark Johns" on the side of the santa head. I did a search for his name, it game up in google.

    Ooh I love MOOoooo too! I initially bought a book of funky stickers and have been slipping them into my little parcels of fabric cover buttons (still on the backing) just as a complimentary gift that won't break the bank! Will definitely use them again with these fresh ideas.

    I'm waiting for my Moo samples. Ordered them yesterday. I have been looking for Organic/Green printers (that are not ridiculously expensive) for my biz cards, tags etc. So, I'm excited as I wait for them to arrive.

    I just got my first batch of cards last week and they are beautiful! I used a variety of pictures of my glass work on the front and everyone that I have handed them to thinks they are fun -- hopefully that means they will keep them and use them. Thanks to all my Etsy co-horts for the great ideas on using them for more than business cards!
