The brand new AMOC sticker.... a 'bonus item' to each portfolio that goes out. I'm not talking about one sticker, I'm talking about a sheet of removeable (matte finish) and a sheet of permanent adhesive (gloss finish) along with instructions of where to buy the blank label sheets and the PDF print file so you can make more of your own at your will. So here's what it looks like as a single sticker.
