I just realized I never made a formal announcement to my friends, so here goes...
This past week has been an emotional but an incredibly exciting one for me and my family. For the past six years I have been lucky enough to work at the Lee's Summit Chamber as the creative director. I met, and got to work with, so many awesome people and business owners. However with my husbands support I have resigned from the Chamber and will be starting a new chapter.
Business owner is a title I NEVER thought I would have, but here goes nothing! Starting Monday my new job is focusing on KC Swagger and spending more time at home being a wife and mommy.
Am I scared? Of course! Am I excited? Like you wouldn't believe!
A big fat THANK YOU to everyone that has shared their well wishes. It is because of my awesome family, friends and this community that I feel this dream is possible.
Stay Awesome!

P.S. keep in mind that besides all of my creations on my website, if you ever need a custom shirt for your business, group, vacation or whatever... I can help with that. No minimums ever.

In case you missed the announcement we revealed our newest design last week on social media. The new KC Arrow shirt. It is officially my favorite. I know, I know, it's not right to play favorites, but how could I not?!
The shirt can't be purchased online yet because I am giving first dibs to everyone that comes to the Big Alley Pop Up Event. The event is this Friday, August 28 from 5-8 p.m. in the alley behind Cameron's Home Furnishings, 26 SE Third Street, Lee's Summit, MO 64081.
There will be seven other vendors, so don't miss out!
Stay Awesome,
Gina
Sorry for the short update, but I've got shirts to ship! Love Kansas City so much!
I did get my husband to pose for a picture, so that was also a win for the night.
Stay Awesome,
Gina
Special thanks to Cameron's Home Furnishings for hosting us. Remember, if you need to buy new furniture or home décor, SHOP LOCAL!
Thanks for making my job so much fun!
Stay Awesome,
Gina
Today's random nugget of information: I drive a minivan... a screaming red minivan. Bet you didn't know I was that cool. Good thing I wear my Swagger shirt at least twice a week. It helps balance out the van. Does anyone know where I can get some magnetic flames to put on the side?
]]>I know in the last blog I mentioned that I would start sharing random facts about myself and family so that you can know more about KC Swagger, so here is today's nugget. At my real job (not that I don't consider this real, but you know what I mean) I am the creative director for the best chamber of commerce in the Kansas City region. I have worked at the chamber for more than five years and I love designing their magazines and other special publications.
Stay Awesome

Due to the day game today I was able to spend some time designing tonight, and I'm pleased to say that I will be debuting a new design in the next few days... and I think it might just be my new favorite.
Since I never fully introduced myself, I will try and make a point to tell you random facts at the end of each blog. Today's nugget. My name is Gina Seibel (yep, I'm a chick) I am a graphic designer by day and t-shirt maker by night. My husband Jeff offers input occasionally, so don't worry guys I design for both sexes. Jeff "drew" a sketch today that he swears everyone will love. We shall see. Silly guy. That one will still be a few weeks away. I need time to refine his "masterpiece."
Stay Awesome,
Gina
Who would have thought that a baseball team would lead to one little doodle for a shirt design, that would then lead to making a website and selling shirts. Kansas City is so cool.
Me and my husband Jeff (who by the way has been SO good with the kids while I live in our dining room at the computer) appreciate the overwhelming support we have received so far, and are beyond excited to start this journey. Nothing makes me more happy then seeing a Swagger shirt just walking around town.
Should I have waited a little longer to launch the website... probably... but do I ever wait for anything... no.
So as the title says... HERE GOES NOTHING!
Happy ordering! If you have any questions just shoot me an email at info@kcswaggershop.com
Shirts should start arriving in two weeks.
