12 Kits of Occasions: August


Hi and welcome to August's 12 Kits of Occasions' post. This month our
hostess is the fabulous, Michelle Leone, and she's given us a kit full of fun!
She calls it, 'End of Summer Soiree, and there's birthday, and red, white
and blue, plenty of florals, yummy bright papers, well just have a look...


Leading off with a favorite for a boy... a birthday boy!


Michelle gave us big bold die cut blossoms, and this bright greeting that says it all.


This bear, his balloon, and the pink sun medallion were fussy cut. All was well
until I added Glossy Accents to the balloon. It sort of got away from me. But 
how cute is he looking straight at it??? Had to use it anyway.


Michelle included the cake, cake stand, and a floral paper I cut into circles. 
The sentiments she sent us fit perfectly in the PTI oven mitts and rolling pin dies. 


Another card with a darling plane, banner and clouds included in the kit.


Last a cascade of fussy cut blooms from one of the papers in the kit onto
a floral frame adhered to a soft pale blue textured paper, inked in blues.
Sentiment: Poppystamps.

6 cards and I still have more left over to play with!
Thank you Michelle!
It's always fun to see what creative ideas my talented teammates did with
their kits.
Next is September... where'd the year go? 
Hope  you have a crafty week, sweet friends!

Sweet Birthday Wishes


It seems like it's been awhile since I've posted a card. My summer's been full of family,
trips, chickens and children... with 3 BIG summer parties at our house. 
Phew! I need a vacation. No better place than the craft room!

This card's for Ink to Paper, Laurie's Fabulous Favorites, 
this week's it's Background Stamps.


The background stamp is white embossed within the oval die, Cover Up: Grid,
on water color paper. I then loosely watercolored the grid and fit it inside the 
Pierced Feature Frames: Oval (cut 3 times). 
That's Garden Garland on the outside of the oval.
Laurie's card was full of black and white drama.White on white is my absolute favorite 
technique for drama.  

Ink to Paper Tag Creations: Blooming Indulgence Dies


The many dies in this set are fun to play with. I used colored card stock and the banner 
included in the set, and used a sentiment from Just Sentiments Tagged.

Feels so good be be back in the craft room. I have family coming on Monday.
And we're planning another trip to Yosemite. All's good, and very busy. 
Hope you enjoy your summer, and all the warmth that goes with it.
And especially hope you have some time to create. It just seems to refresh and
restore. 

Blessings!
