12 Kits of Occasions: April

Let's Hear It For the Grad!

Welcome to April's 12 Kits of Occasions post!!!

We have a special kit from a special person, Kara Pogreba

I met Kara at a craft retreat last year and fell in love with her

talents and sweet personality!

Here's what I made with her kit

Leading off with a spinner. An AI Chair Spinner! 

Well, people our age have reasons to celebrate too!

Here's the back

So fun to color.

Next up, a couple of W+9 Going Places balloons

This one will go to a grandson graduating from pre-school this year.

Hard to see but touched up with a bit of Nuvo Moonstone Glimmer.

Those are Lawn Fawn cookies, and couldn't resist capping the elephant.

Kara gave us the tassel, and the great gold embossed sentiment. Easy to add the flat 

sequins and create a shaker.

The silhouettes were included. Every bit of this card was included. What a fun 

grad card!

This one says it all. Congrats!

Thanks to Kara for helping me get ready for graduation time. 6 cards and 

plenty left over. Hope you got some inspiration for the grads in your life.

All products are listed on our post page. Be sure and make the rounds and

give some love to my teammies. 

Have a great week! And thanks for the visit!

For the Graduate - April 2019

12 Kits of Occasions March 2017

It's the last day of March, and that means time for 

12 Kits of Occasions!

The fabulous Jeanne Jackna from A Kept Life

sent us a kit that's Out of This World!

Stamps and dies and papers, oh my!

When Jeanne's up at 12 Kits, get ready. She is an 

amazingly talented designer, generous, and lovely,

inside and out!

Thank you, dear Jeanne, I had so much fun with so many

images. Each of 8 cards came so quickly, I had to force 

myself to quit! And so much left. But that's OK, 

lots to play with in the future!

1st up, a shaker!

GA-ed his helmet face, and there's lots of Wink of Stella.

Have A Blast features a rocket with glittery fire.

These 3 space guys are circling earth!

I just love this sentiment with the little green guy.

A Space Needle surrounded by stars.

Got to play with some Finetec Pearl paints for this card.

This spaceman is out for a ride on this sweet rocket!

And finally this space duo flying in to wish a happy birthday.

Thank you again, Jeanne, for a kit that was 'Out of This World!

We have some guest this month too, Richard Breaks, Janis Woolbright, Betty Keefe,

and Katie Mowery. Be sure to stop by and give them some love!

March 2017 - Out of This World

12 Kits of Occasions: 'Here Comes the Sun'

Hello, 12 Kits fans! 

Our theme this month is 'Here Comes the Sun'.

Our Kit was supplied by Sharron Gregory, from, On Papillon Wings.

Memorial Day signals the start of summer in the states,

and Sharron blessed us with warm and wonderful images and accessories!

Here's a peek at our supplies

So many wonderful images, die cuts, sequins and designer papers!

I made 7 cards, but honestly, could have made more! Just ran out of time!

This paper reminded me of a tiki hut, so I went with the Hawaiian theme, 

complete with the hula girl!

The cute waves are PTI's Frosted Borders, cut in sea colors.

Seriously craving a lime aid drink with a twist right now. 

(It's 5:00 somewhere, right?)

The wonderful iridescent sequins from Spellbinders Celebrations were wonderful to work with, and perfect for a shaker!

If you've ever been to Hawaii, geckos are everywhere. Including hotel rooms! Perfectly harmless, and quick as all get out, 

I think I set the hi-jump record the first time I met one!

Used a couple of paper extras for my Pina Colada card!

Sharron also included some gardening images and matching sentiments.

What's summer without a garden to enjoy?

2 separate sentiments, but I thought they went so well together!

Thanks for visiting, and don't forget to see what the other designers did

with all their wonderful goodies!

Big Hugs and kisses to Sharron for a summery, joy filled kit!
