Surprise! We are so excited to ship the January collection! The forecasted low temperature for today is -5 degrees, but this festive kit seems to make this frigid winter a bit more tolerable.
The cheerful color palette is one of my favorites. I'm particularly fond of the shades of red and blue in the kit. You'll know exactly what I'm talking about when you have them in your hands!
A Note from Tricia
Join the Club Scrap discussion on our new private chat group on Facebook. It's easy to request membership in the group and a great way to see what fellow members are doing with the latest collections. Newbies, it's also a terrific place to ask questions!
Our 2018 expo travel calendar is taking shape. We appreciate your patience and understanding if we are unable to make it to your area this year. We'd love to visit every state (and country) on the map, but there's only so many weekends in a year.
Meanwhile, it is my hope to bring Club Scrap to you with even more video tutorials in 2018. We've started with a fun online workshop featuring the January Greetings to Go collection. Be sure to share the link with your card making friends!
We received a kind letter of gratitude from the Houston Food Bank for our financial contribution of over $1,000 for disaster relief. Thank you so much for making that donation possible with your enthusiastic support of the Texas Strong collection last fall.
Fonts and Inks
Just about any ink color can find its way into your stamped projects and cards, but Kay reached for the following CS® colors: Fuchsia, Tangerine, Neon Blue, Neon Green, India Black and White Pigment. You'll have an opportunity to see Kay's card creations later this week.
We selected the Sophia Script and Cottons Light fonts for our typeset designs in the Surprise collection. (A purchase for download may be required.)
What's Ahead?
We've received many requests from our members for a collection that celebrates the technology and aesthetic designs of 19th-century innovations, and we can't wait to put our twist on this industrial look with February's Steamworks collection. You're going to adore the rich color palette. Everything new is old again!
Surprise Deluxe Layouts
Cheers! The festive colors combine to create the perfect backdrop for any special occasion from throughout the year. I added the adorable cupcakes with the overlay stencil and White pigment ink.
Surprise Greetings to Go
The complexity of the Greetings to Go pop-up card posed some instruction writing challenges. I was able to film a video tutorial which shows how easy it is to assemble all three card structures in the set of twelve cards.
We're in for a fun month at Club Scrap, and we're so glad you're a part of it. Cheers!
Tricia
