Just so sporty

Melanie has done it again! This month, Mel has put together her most exciting stamp set ever. "Just so Sporty" has 64 stamps for you to create cards and projects for just about everyone in your life!

Someone very important in our lives is the girls swim coach, Angie, or as my girls affectionately call her, "Coach Mom."

Here are a couple photos of Angie with Rina. The first photo was taken in Iowa when Rina won one of the high point awards at the end of a swim meet. The second photo was at a swim practice when Rina was being tapered for Zones. Angie stayed on and coached the three kids from the team that made it to Zones even though the swim season for our team had already ended.



Angie has worked with my girls for years. Both of my girls absolutely LOVE her. Rina has a very special connection with Angie. Nobody can motivate Rina to try her hardest the way Angie can. In fact, when I really think about it, during the school year, my girls spend more time with "Coach Mom" than with "Me Mom."

Coach Angie loves to rubber stamp and scrapbook too so I am going to start off the swim season with a little gift for her. She's getting Melanie's new stamp set. Her boys play every sport known to man so this set will be a fabulous addition to her collection!

Here is a card I made for "Coach Mom."



This set makes it easy to thank some of the most influential people in your life or in the lives of your children. Whether it's football, basketball, volleyball, baseball, hockey, gymnastics, swimming, soccer, tennis, dance, cheer- coach or athlete- you name it, Melanie has you covered.

You can also make adorable cards for Dad, brother, sister and more!

And, how about a COMPLETE set of numbers that you can use for your scrapbook pages, birthday cards, graduations and reunions.

Maybe you need a unique birthday, baby or thank you card. Melanie has your covered there too! This is the most complete stamp set I've ever seen.

There are a lot of cute images that go along with the shirts. I'm still trying to think of something I CAN'T make with this set and I've been looking at these stamps for months! LOL!



Do you like that paper? The water paper is from a new paper pack that will be hitting our online store next week. It's by DCWV. It's HUGE and it comes in my favorite 6 X 6 size. And- are you sitting down? It's self-adhesive! It's a dream come true for paper piecing! I used it again in my next fun and sporty project.



Both the background paper and the sweatshirt are made from the papers in this new paper pack. I stamped my image on the floral paper and cut the sweatshirt out. Then, I colored the  little spaces under the arms with a black copic marker. When I placed it on a piece of black card stock, it looked like I took the time to carefully cut out those underarm pieces. Easy huh?



I also colored in the hood with a black marker. The brads and fibers are by Basic Grey from the cupcake collection.

I can not wait until you see this whole set. It will blow you away! The set retails for $19.95 so that means you pay only .31 cents a stamp! I had to laugh out loud when I ran that equation. hee-hee!
