Known as the Product Label Queen, Crissy found her love for designing when her one year old son King David was diagnosed with Pediatric Cancer on April 3,2017. During his journey while confined to the 4 walls in the hospital room, she was able to create beautiful custom party favor labels. This kept her busy and also acted as a stress reliever during treatment. In 2020 King David completed his cancer treatment and is currently in remission. That same year, the Product Label Queen Launched. As a label printing and design company, The Product Label Queen adds visual impact to your products with high quality product labels. The company specializes in designing and printing labels for skincare, health and beauty products.
