EEK! It’s almost Valentine’s Day! I just LOVE Valentine’s Day! I’m not sure why? Maybe it’s because I am a hopeless romantic or because the color palette is so pretty! It can’t be because of all the wonderful sweets. Nope, that must not be it. Haha! Maybe that’s it? Okay, you caught me!

So, I must confess. . . I’m not really a football fan. Okay, so that’s not really true, but I don’t watch a lot of professional football. I do love college football though, especially my Oregon Ducks (I LOVE MY DUCKS)! (Check out my free Oregon Ducks Printables too.)
Sheri is an amazing friend of mine and a huge Patriots fan. Her husband Trevor, and son Brett are huge Miami Dolphin Fans, apparently they are the Patriots biggest rivals. Brett just can’t bring himself to root for the Patriots so he is cheering on the Giants. We wanted to make sure that both teams were equally represented to please both parties.
(Just a fun side note, Sheri is also nice enough to help me keep up with my Etsy conversations. Some days I have 20 or more conversations to answer.Thanks for the help Sheri!! ) Sheri and Trevor are throwing a Superbowl party this upcoming weekend and wanted to include some fun party printables. So Sheri came to me for design help! Yay! These printables were super fun to design and I thought it would be nice to share them with you too!
When I was at shopping at Costco today, I noticed an awesome pack of football plates and napkins that would match these items perfectly too! Though you may not have any huge plans for Super Bowl Sunday aside from eating fatty appetizers, drinking way too much beer, laughing at ridiculous commercials, and hoping for another wardrobe malfunction during the half time show, these party printables will liven up any Super Bowl Party!
If you do use these printables at your party, I’d love to see them so please email me some photos or share them on facebook! Happy Super Bowl XLVI (that’s number 46 if you forgot your roman numerals) and in case you haven’t begun the countdown, there is only 2 days and 17 plus hours until kickoff!!!
FREE SUPER BOWL PRINTABLES Cupcake Toppers/Party Circles (4 designs) Beer Bottle Label Super Bowl Ticket Pass there’s even a space to personalize them! Drink/Cup Label stop searching for your drink, write your name on it and claim it Place Cards/Food Labels Tent Style Water Bottle/ Drink Label- Patriots Water Bottle/Drink Label- Giants Water Bottle/Drink Label-Official NFL Drink Water Bottle/Drink Label- Football in grass
I also thought the water bottle/drink labels would make awesome napkin wraps so you could wrap up silverware and a napkin for each guest. Just a thought. In case you were wondering, the font I used was Good Times, which seems appropriate!

MIA madness
Hey everyone. . . do you hate me now? I know I’ve been MIA on facebook and haven’t blogged in forever. Well, guess what? I have work coming out of my wazoo!! I know, I know! I honestly LOVE it, but it’s taking a toll on my social life and my sleep! I don’t think I’ve gotten more than 5 hours of sleep in the past several nights. You know what that makes, one grumpy Mommy!
I’ve been spending a ton of time designing new items. I was so excited today when the FedEx guy (He thanked me the other day for my continuous business and that he likes seeing me daily. That’s sad, isn’t it?) came and dropped off a wedding collection that I’ve been slaving away over.
I’m actually sort of obsessed over them. I wanted to share a few photos with you because I just can’t keep it in anymore! I can’t wait to see the rest of the wedding. Congratulations to Mary and John and thank you so much for putting your trust in me and allowing me to be a part of your special day!
Now, I better get my butt back to work! I have a few more hours until 2 am 🙂
Love you guys,
Jess
Are you tired of sending out the same size birthday invitation, birth announcement, save-the-date, or {insert said event} ? Me too!! I am always trying to change things up a bit. I like to keep my friends and family on their toes, you know? I want my friends and family to open their card and “enjoy” it. Really look at it, analyze it, ponder the use of color, the texture, and sit back and marvel in my creative genius! Okay, so maybe I just want my cards to be different from the rest. I want my invites to STAND OUT!
Typically, a 5″ x 7″ (vertical or horizontal) card is the way to go! If you’re really crazy (or rich and don’t mind springing for the extra postage) you can send out a 5″ x 5″ square card. I know, wild huh? There are other options like folded, tri-folded, or accordion cards, but those can add up really quick. So, what are we left with? How can we make our “snail” mail stand out from the crowd? How can our cards look less ordinary?
Well, I’ve got the solution for you! Okay, so I didn’t actually invent these AMAZING card shapes, but I get to design them! Yay for me!!! Yay for you!! Gone are the traditional rectangle and square cards, unless they are scalloped. Say hello to these little gems.
I also have 45+ other card shapes to choose from. You have no idea how happy this makes me. When I found out I had all of these card shapes at my design disposal I was giddy! Yes, I wanted to tell everyone about how excited I was! Are you excited too? Can you think of the endless possibilities??
BTW- All of these designs are NOW available in my shop! If you want a custom design, just contact me and I’d be happy to help you!!
xoxo,
Jessica
