Ok...not real sure where to start, this kit was beyond amazing, truly beyond amazing, Renee from It's A Patchwork Life is our hostess with the mostess this month and she totally out did herself...so many wonderful ingredients, from the patterned paper to the beautiful ribbon and all the amazing little doo-dads! You could literally make a couple dozen cards from everything that Renee sent, so much fun to have it all spread over my craft desk, it looked like a convention for snowmen, just needed a nice hot cup of cocoa!
This month we have another guest designer with us, her name is Judy Marino from Judy's Card Corner. Judy is one amazing card maker, you will need to grab a cup of your favorite beverage and spend some time on her blog, you will be in awe! Please make her feel at home and be sure to leave her some love too. To see all the wonderful cards that our group has made, head over to our blog, The 12 Kits of Occasions and from there you can get the link to each ladies blog. You will also be able to find a list of the incredible ingredients that Renee included.
Thank you so much for stopping by to peek at my cards...wishing you all a fabulous Friday!
These are all so awesome but my jaw dropped when I saw the third one down. Just fabulous.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great collection of cards. You used so many elements of the embellies in the kit--now I know what to do with some of them, at least. I especially love the colorful patterned background you made with that looks like a giant herringbone pattern. Need to try this one.
ReplyDeleteGreat set of cards, Kim!
ReplyDeleteTell me you didn't make that cute chevron pattern card with washi tape? If you did...I am speechless! It is lined up so perfectly...I thought it had to be patterned paper! I also love your snow globe card...I love that little banner underneath it. I just noticed you got a different button that me on the last card...what a fun kit and I love seeing what you have done with it Kim!
ReplyDeleteKim!!!! You need to post a warning at the top of your post..."Beware, some seriously amazing cards ahead!" Wow, I love everything you made with your kit this month -- why didn't I think of any of that?! I really LOVE that patchwork snowman card -- amazing way to use those pretty papers! Thanks for your kind words about me and my blog...it was my pleasure and honor to be a guest designer this month! You are all a great bunch of super talented ladies, for sure!
ReplyDeleteSO many fun ideas that I want to try - I like the vellum snowglobe, and holy cow that background pattern on "sparkle and shine" is calling to me! You mixed and matched your colors and papers so beautifully here Kim! I dont miss the images being colored at all - you packed in so much goodness! Well done! You really have great style!
ReplyDeleteKim these are all just as cute as can be!!
ReplyDeleteawesome cards!! love love love the chevron card!!
ReplyDeleteOh Kim…... great job! I love that adorable chevron pattern you made out of the papers. You are so creative MS. The vellum over the globe is also a fun idea. You outdid yourself with very creative cards and idea.
ReplyDeleteOh, my Kim you are so amazing. I have watched you grow to be such a fabulous card maker. I am surprised you haven't been awarded the Leibster Award yet, (as far as I can see), so I am nominating you now. You can read all about it on my blog.

Amazing amazing Kim, I love all of your fabulous cards. The vellum over the snow globe is brilliant! Love the patterned background you created with washi and paper--gorgeous and I need to try that. All so inspiring Kim, you used so many of the embellishments and so perfectly!
ReplyDeleteThose snowmen are too cute! Love the way you combined red, pink, aqua and gray. All beautiful cards but your third card was simply fabulous! - Irma
ReplyDeleteAmazing cards, Kim! Your washi tape design is brilliant and I love the vellum over your snow globe. You used the patterned papers so beautifully--something I often struggle doing. Super job with Renee's kit!
ReplyDeleteKim, these cards are so fabulous I wish it was Christmas all over again!! Fantastic idea using the vellum for the snowglobe (would never have thought of that!) and the one in a 'paving' pattern (sorry, can't remember what its called) is beautiful. Trying to work out if you used washi, paper or stamps to do the paving rectangles.... And thanks so much for all your comments on my blog, I really appreciate it! My brain is overloaded at the moment with card designs as I have so many challenges that I want to join this week but I'm too tired to make a start at this time of night. What a shame I don't drink coffee!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my, such brilliant snowmen cards, Kim ... I especially love the block herringbone background ... so awesome ... it'll be going into my CASE file! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteKim: a gallery of gorgeous cards here! Again, I'm astounded how your create such unique, fresh designs with the kits! Love the vellum globe of the first, the cheerful snowman building scene of the second,the fabulously amazing background of the third (seriously...washi tape? WOW!), and the happy snowman of the fourth. A visit here has certainly warmed up the -40C temperature we woke up to this morning! LOVE your series x 100000000!! Hugs~c
ReplyDeleteI just love the colors! Beautiful and bright! Fabulously done, Kim!
ReplyDeleteI get so excited each time I see your "12 Kits" post because I know that I am in for an amazing display of craftyliciousness (if it's not a word, well then it should be!). Awesome snow globe effect with the vellum, pretty bits of bling on the snow scene, sweet diagonal patchwork background and nice scalloped piece on the happy, happy snowfella card!
ReplyDeleteFabulous cards Kim! I love the paper strip weaving one the best - my favorite! I really enjoy seeing all the cards this team makes!
ReplyDeleteWowzers! It's such a treat to see what you girls create with these kits. I'm calling a home run with this grouping. Each is simply amazing! I do especially love the 'Snowman's Soul' card, but they are all so sweet. Have a great weekend. Bev
ReplyDeleteI love snowmen & so fun to see the variety of your cards, Kim!
ReplyDeleteWow, love all your snowmen cards. Did you piece together that diagonal background?? Looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteKim, how cool that you put the vellum in front of the snowglobe card, it makes it look so realistic! Then I love that you made so many cards with no color on the images... they still shine, though because of the great patterned paper you used behind. What an eye for style!
ReplyDeleteYou did a remarkable job with the kit, Kim!! I finally had a few minutes to do this month's (last month's) hop and am I ever glad I did! What fun inspiration! I'm loving that pink with the usual red/aqua combo!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love them!
ReplyDeleteI'm REALLY lovin' that 3rd one...
the background is AWESOME...
why didn't I think of that...
I just die over it!!
They're all fabulous...
love the vellum over the snowglobe...
you did amazing with this kit of mish mash...
and I love them all! :)
That washi background is AWESOME! I can't wait to try that idea out myself as I love my washi but always just end up using it on the backs of envelopes or something :)!! The snowglobe is so sweet with the snowman and the way the vellum softens the look. The snowman scene is adorable with that patterned paper in the background!
