Wow...the end of April is already here, that means it is time for the 12 Kits of Occasions post and wow, what an amazing kit! Our fabulous hostess this month is Jeanne from A Kept Life and I am quite sure everyone knows who she is and have seen her wonderful and creative cards. Her kit was like crafting supplies on steroids, every time I would look at the kit I would see something that I missed the time before. Jeanne's kit was filled with spring, literally...it was like an explosion of springtime right on my desk, I felt the need to take an Allegra just in case I had an allergy attack from all the beautiful flowers. I was one of the lucky ones this month and received the self-assembling kit, honest...I would leave the room and come back and find a card or two pretty much already made, it was like my supplies all fell into just the right spot. Enough chatting and on to my cards. Be sure to head over to our 12 Kits blog for a chance to win a May Kit...just leave a comment there about what what your favorite thing about the month of May is. And be sure to see all the fabulous cards made by the rest of the crafty ladies. You can also find a complete list of Jeanne's supplies there too. Thank you so much for stopping by...enjoy the rest of your week!
This card is for the current challenge at Retro Sketches #112
soooo super pretty
ReplyDeletelove all those bold colors
You are such a pro! These are all gorgeous! My jaw dropped when I saw your last card ,oh my gosh I love that one. I now need to buy those stamps ..I liked them from the kit but your card is ..like perfect! Great job Kim !
ReplyDeleteI WISH I had thought of the last card you made Kim...I love those gold flowers all on one card with the cute sentiment and pink ribbon...so glad I have mine left over! I also really love your umbrella card...that was the most beautiful umbrella die cut I have ever seen...love all the little pearls scattered all over it! I laughed at your comment about the allergy medicine! Hope you are not still sneezing from all those paper flowers!
ReplyDeleteKim, each and every one, a Spring joy! So bright and happy, (I'm smiling as I comment!) Impossible to pick a favorite among such beauties, but, (OK there's always a fav!), the last card of paneled gold eb, is stunning!
ReplyDeleteWell Kim you definitely rocked Jeanne's kit. So much eye candy. Love the RS card and the rose peaking out of the window and your teapot and cup--swoon. Great job Kim, now I can CASE you!
ReplyDeleteWow wow wow!!! I can't believe how many amazing cards you made Kim! I see lots of things now that I wish I'd used instead - you made everything shine! I love the polaroid with that big bloom peeking through, the line of pearls on the saucer, the gold embossed images in a row, the pearls on the umbrella... oh heck... I love them all! You made this all look so easy and seamless - absolutely gorgeous. I know I'm going to come pack and peek again later! You amaze me!
ReplyDeleteOh wow - these are all gorgeous!!! I just love the mix of papers & colors!!! HUGS!
ReplyDeleteSuch gorgeous, feminine, floral delights, Kim ... so completely brimming over with spring time joy ... I just love the slender navy die cut over the aqua bloom, set against that wonderful DP ... so delicious! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteThis is the second time I have tried to post this, so hopefully you don't get two from me! I love all of your cards Kim...my very favorite is the one with the three gold flowers all together...that is just such an elegant card...so pretty and makes me really glad I still have those images left!
ReplyDeleteWOW is right, Kim - you've worked spring magic with this kit! Pretty, fresh, floral, and gorgeous! I'm amazed at how each card is a stunning showcase of your creativity! LOVE these!! Hugs~c
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, happy cards, Kim--such a neat kit! My 2 favorites are the 3rd one & the last one--just my style! Need to case you & get my mojo going--you always inspire me!
ReplyDeletebeautiful cards!! love all of the flowers!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous--every one, Kim! And I agree about Jeanne's kit. It seems to magically just create cards on its own. All those fantastic papers and die cuts were amazing. Love all your designs! And you added such great details. I adore the pearls on the umbrella & the tea cup!
ReplyDeleteI'm oohing and awing over each one of your beautiful cards! So lovely!
ReplyDeleteSuch PRETTY PRETTY cards Kim!! I think my fave is #3 with the polka dots and the framed rose!
ReplyDeleteWonderful set of cards, they are all beautiful! Carri~Abusybee
ReplyDeleteSkittles!
You've done it again Kim....turned a sweet heap of crafting goodies into cards that people will treasure! The diecut flowers are gorgeous - especially love the vibrant pink & orange flowers! Sweet images on the April showers card!
ReplyDeleteStunning projects Kim!
Wow--Kim. So much gorgeousness on your blog. I think I might need an Allegra as well. They are all stunning, and I cannot single out one over the others--except to say that your first card was an 'aha' moment for me, as I had no clue what to do with those little flower die cuts, and your last card triptych is such a fantastic way to use those gold floral images.
ReplyDeleteYou and Joyce think alike! I've just come from her blog where she said her cards were "self-assembling," too! How cool is that?!! I know what you mean, but I also know it's not quite as easy as all that. You put a lot of work into these beauties, Kim, and it shows!! Well done! Have a great weekend! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteWhat a busy woman you have been!! All of these cards are gorgeous, all different yet you can see the link back to the kit. I especially love the 'Thank you' card with the die cut flower in Navy? with the lighter blue underneath, so beautiful. I haven't seen these kits before, they look amazing and have so many inspiring supplies. You must love having them arrive each month!!
