Ok....where did May go??? Seriously I can not believe it is over! And since it is...it's time for our 12 Kits of Occasions post. Before I get to my 2 cards, yes you heard me right. I won't bore you with all the details, but May has been a yucky month...being sick and work has been a real challenge I have not made many cards other than design teams but on the bright side, June will be here is a few short hours and school will be out in 3.5 days and I pray all will be well by then.
So now to my regularly scheduled post....Jeanne from A Kept Life is our hostess with the mostess this month and oh my goodness, what a kit she sent. There are enough supplies to make about 3 or 4 hundred cards, no joke my friends! So like I said before I have 2 cards to share today and I have one more to share on Monday. When my over the top amazing kit arrived everything was neatly packaged and there was this tag that said "don't try this at home" and I could not wait to use it! I think that was my favorite part of the kit!
Be sure to hear over to our 12 Kits of Occasions blog to see all the wonderful and amazing cards from the rest of the group. We also have a couple of special guest this month. Renee from It's a Patchwork Life and Jill from Greenwood Girls.
Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Looking awesome, Kim! I sure do like the heart inside that light bulb.
ReplyDeleteLove them...masculine cards are always a challenge for me.
ReplyDeleteWow...loved that don't try tis at home card...such a great idea Kim...why didn't I think of that one? Looks like you had a great time with Jeanne's kit...she gave us so many options for masculine cards.
ReplyDeleteOh Miss Kim!! Hope you're feeling better by now, and I'll pray that the end of school year brings some much deserved R&R! Darling cards. LOVE that 'Don't Try This at Home' sentiment. Cracked me right up!! Great designs and wonderful kit. Rockin' it girl!!! Missing you like crazy! Bev
ReplyDeleteLove both of these...
ReplyDeleteand I saved that awesome tag for a special occasion...
LOVE it!!
Hope you're all better and YAY!!! for summer break! :)
Totally adorable!!! Love that fun light bulb with the stripes and the design of the second card. I hope you are feeling better. Love the cards!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this cowboy card! It's perfect!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you've had a bad month, Kim. Wishing you an extra specially fun June! Your cards are both great, but I adore the cowboy one! The wooden stars are the perfect embellishment!
ReplyDeleteOnly two cards but.. WOW! LOVE them both! That cowboy is amazing - when I saw the sneak peek at the 12 kits had to run here immediately! The lightbulb is clean and wonderful. So sorry to read about you being ill - I hope you are better. Just got in from vacation and anxious to catch up. I pray June makes up for all the bad and is double good to you my friend! Hugs !
ReplyDeleteHow fun are these?! That is the perfect use of that " don't try this.." tag! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSorry its been yucky for you, Kim. It sure did go fast! I have been not that well for a few weeks myself but so happy I didn’t have to try and go to work like you.
ReplyDeleteI love the two you made . The cowboy wine is amazing and I just might have to CASE that one. Hope you feel better soon.
Such fun cards. I really like the first one with that fun light bulb.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you haven't been feeling well Kim. Maybe I hope June brings you better health when it arrives. A terrific pair of masculine cards, such a fun kit!
ReplyDeleteKim I love both of your fabulous cards! And sorry to hear you have been sick too! i think the viruses nowadays are just dreadful! Ugh! Take good care and happy almost summer time! My son is out on June 16th! I cannot wait!!!
ReplyDeleteSure do hope that the soon to arrive summer holiday will help you get back on track! Feeling yucky is not fun! But...you'd never know that you're a bit under the weather based on the fab cards that you're creating!
ReplyDeleteLove the embossed (?) silver coil on the light bulb and LOVE the neon sign message! "Don't Try This At Home" nearly had me spewing coffee through my nose (note to self....don't sip while card gazing!). Great 'he man' colors and patterns on the DP!
There may only be two cards, but they are hugely fabulous, Kim! I love them both and I know you will be showing us more as the days of June go by! Good luck with this last less-than-a-whole week of school!! You can do it!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteVery cute cards! Fun designs! Thanks so much for playing along with us for the Anything Goes Challenge on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!
ReplyDelete"don't try this at home" tee hee hee. Love that bold design. Feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteYou may have only two cards so far but they both are fabulous! Love how you used that tag with your cowboy--awesome idea! Just think, you'll be all set with masculine card supplies when things slow down. Hope you have a wonderful summer!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards! Loving that bold cowboy image!
ReplyDeleteHow fantastic!! Such brilliant colours and love that cowboy image. Can't wait to see what else you come up with.
ReplyDeleteLove both of these cards, Kim. Quality over quantity--that is surely your motto today. I really love how you used that hilarious tag, and also a fabulous western cowboy card. So glad that you are nearing the end of your stressful period--your health is also bound to improve, and I'm sure I'll be seeing more done with this kit before too long.
ReplyDeleteDo hope you're back to feeling yourself, Kim ... I'm thinking you've finished school for the summer by now and that you can concentrate on getting some well earned R&R! A fabulous duo of cards ... yummy DP with that shiny bulb element ... and how brilliant is that 'Don't Try This At Home ... fantastic! Hugs & Bisous, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteGreat manly-man cards, Kim! Hope, by now, you've wrapped up the year and are taking some much-needed, well-deserved time off. Being a teacher is *not* an easy job! Rest, relax, rejuvenate and have fun!
ReplyDeletehugs~c
