It is just about the end of the month and that means it is time again for our 12 kits post. Our fabulous hostess this month is Marybeth, and what an amazing kit she sent...sequins, ribbon, die cuts, patterned paper and even a wonderful stamp set from Serendipity! So many wonderful ingredients and for so many different types of cards. I now have a little stash of get well cards that I would never have made without this kit. I was lucky enough to receive the "self assembling" kit from Marybeth, thank you! Really my cards just seemed to fall into place, it is so nice when you have so many yummy goodies and that happens. Since this week's challenge over at
SSS is Anything Goes, I will be entering a few of these cards there.

Marybeth sent such a fantastic kit...
how could they be anything but! :)
Kim you sure have been wowing me every time I stop by! Wow! Love the notebook and now I am going to have to order some of these ! Your polka dot card is gorgeous with the uncolored image and thank you tag. Love the rain boy with the bold flowers for a background, Kim you did a FABULOUS job with this kit!
ReplyDeleteKim--you did get the self assembling kit--and your ingredients knew just what to do with themselves. I love how you created that little scene on the die cut with the soup can and bowl. Brilliant idea to make a note pad, and that big patterned paper is the perfect backdrop for that sweet little boy caught in the rain. All your cards are just perfect.
ReplyDeletegreat cards Kim! love the look of the uncolored images. my first instinct is always to color them in, but the image looks cool just like that with color added around it!!
ReplyDeleteKim I agree with Joyce, you got the self-asssembling kit. All fabulous I really like your soup card with the red background and mat stack, and the Under the Weather with the flower paper background is fantastic. You did a great job using the sequins too. Love all your great cards.
ReplyDeleteEvery one is just fabulous, Kim! The uncolored images look perfect with the bold patterned papers. And I love your wonderful designs with the black & white stripes. The little notebook is so adorable!
ReplyDeleteWow - creativity lives here! These cards are amazing...but the soup can is my absolute favorite. Awesome colors and awesome embellishments. Love the size of the tall narrow card - would you share the measurements with us?
ReplyDeleteIt is actually a little note pad cover and the measurements are 8 1/8 x 2 1/8, opened up it is 8 1/8 x 5 3/8 and scored. I hope this answers your question. I love making these note pad covers and I purchase them from Papertrey Ink, here is the link

Fabulous creations, love that soup one.. thanks for joining us at Simon Says Challenge blog
ReplyDeleteWow, Kim ... where to start with these amazing cards? Soup ... beautifully bold: rain boy ... super, simple, uncoloured image against the vibrant background: notebook ... utterly adorable, I love every little bit of it: flowers ... a cool riot of non-colour against the equally cool polka dots: birds ... completely gorgeous colours and border. Admiring, admiring, admiring! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteHi Kim! Wonderful job with this kit - so many pretties here that are stand outs that I will want to case! I really like the textured background with the soup and how you left the images uncolored to stand on their own!
ReplyDeleteI was going to type Wow five times, but that might be too silly even for me. Oh, heck with it, that's how I feel: WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW!! You have blown the socks off this kit, Kim, my friend!!
ReplyDeleteKim that notepad is so cool! I love how tall and slender it is. Then the uncolored flowers truly pop on that patterned paper, they look gorgeous! The soup cans are so sweet, and the filigree border was the perfect touch on the last card :)
ReplyDeleteI am just loving everyone's versions of the soup can/bowl......I love that you chose to layer them on the Mat Stack shape! What a sweet Thank You card using that cute birdie paper and the filigree border!!!
ReplyDeleteYour cards are fantastic, Kim! I am especially smitten with the way you combined the dark stripes and bird paper on the notepad and last card. I'm always anxious about coloring images, but your sophisticated use of them reminds me that they look just as fabulous uncolored. Beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry it's taken me forever to get around to commenting, Kim! But I have had a fun time this Sunday afternoon :) LOVE that long card with the sweet birdie paper (which I hoarded!) paired with the stripes and die cut. Is it actually a notebook cover? It's just too sweet. Your card with the bird paper is lovely with the sequin accents and the awesome lacy border...so soft and feminine. And that soup card really pops with the red background and the black accents...love how you added the Mat Stack cut and just a touch of homey little baker's twine!
