SP & Company Sneek Peek

Good Wednesday morning to everyone! 

 I hope you are having a wonderful day!

Today is very exciting!  I have a sneak peek of the new SP & Company Stamp set to be released tomorrow, Nov 10!  It is called " Vintage Varsity!"  I just love it! 

I volunteered again this year to make "Thank You" cards for our high school football coaches and trainers for the end of season banquet.  I just love this set of varsity numbers!  It is perfect for my cards!  I decided to stamp jersey numbers on the red background and then stamped one number so it stands out!  For this sample, the number happens to be my son's old jersey number(he graduated last spring.)  We have eight coaches and a number of trainers and team managers that I will be making cards for and I plan for each background to be different.

Card size:  4.25" x 5.5"
Cardstock:  Stampin' Up
SP & Company Stamps:  Vintage Varsity and Just a Note
Embossing Ink:  Big & Bossy Clear, Ranger Adirondak Cranberry, Stampin' Up Dye Soft Suede

SP & Compnay Design Team Wednesday

     Happy November!!! 

Good morning to you all!   It has been a hectic week.  I had a minor car wreck last week...everyone was OK, no one was hurt, just my car and it wasn't even my fault.  Anyway, I forgot to pre-schedule my post last night and when I got up this morning, I had to go to the dealership to get the tires aligned and the fender somewhat fixed, so that it would not rub my tire.  I had to go on a moment's notice, as they were nice enough to work me in this morning.  The reason is...they cannot fix my car until Dec 12...yes, Dec 12.  Why??? You ask??  I live in East TN and because of Hail storms in April and more storms in June, all the body shops are back up for months and months fixing cars.  This makes it very difficult for people who have more immediate needs, like car wrecks, to get their cards fixed.  Am I a little aggravated...Yes!  But, there is not much I can do.  Luckily, my car is a lot more drivable and safe now, than it was yesterday. 

So, now without further ado, here are two cards for today, one using Just a Note and Bold Sentiments II Holidays!  My cards are plain and simple.  I had an order for 200 Thanksgiving cards.  They are in sets of 12, because I had lots of different pattern paper.  I had to make them flat and not too fancy, because they all had to be mailable and simple, yet pretty.  So, I could not do some of my usual 3D dots and embellies on these.  This is only one of many:


Card size: 4.25" x 5.5"
SP & Company Stamps:  Bold Sentiments II Holiday
Stamps:  Pumpkin and leaves(Inkadinkadoo)
Cardstock: American Crafts
Pattern Paper:  K & Company
Embossing Ink:  Stampin' Up Craft Chocolate Chip
Embossing Powder:  Ranger Clear
Dye Ink:  Stampin' Up Dusty Durango, Soft Suede
Chalk In:  VersaMagic Gingerbread

Here is a note card to go with some of the Thanksgiving cards in the same order:


Card size:  4.25" x 5.5"
SP & Company Stamps:  Just a Note
Cardstock:  American Crafts
Pattern Paper:  DCWV
Embossing Ink: Stampin' Up Craft Chocolate Chip
Embossing Powder: Ranger Clear
Chalk In: VersaMagic Jumbo Java

Hope you have a wonderful day!  Go check out SP & Company for all your stamping needs!  Don't forget to go to Scrapmaster's Paradise to see the Design Team creations!

Here is my card for today!  Since I live in Tennessee, of course Orange is a BIG color around here--GO VOLS!  I just LOVE this new set from Samantha!  It is a wonderful set, because you cannot find any Note sentiments anywhere.  This has so many different little sentiments in different fonts and I JUST LOVE IT!!!!  I just wanted a simple card and I love polka dots, so I punched some circles and popped 3D squares on them to give them a little pop!  I added the sentiment with 3D squares also, and then added a little bling to go with it!  It's a very simple card, but I love it and I hope you do too!
