The 12 Kits of Occasions
Crafty Friends Are the Best & GIVEAWAY

Hello friends! It's the last day of the month, and you know what that means! It's time for The 12 Kits of Occasions. And guess what? I'm the hostess with the mostest this month! I'm calling this kit "Crafty Friends Are the Best!" because I thought it would be fun to celebrate the friendships we've made through our love of crafting.
In the spirit of friendship I made a handful of extra kits and invited some friends to play along. I hope you'll give them a warm welcome!


You'll find a complete list of The 12 Kits of Occasions team members and see a sample from each on our blog. Yes! There is a complete ingredient list too!
This kit contained colorful papers from Vicki Boutin, stamped images from Reverse Confetti, Waffle Flower, Picket Fence and more. The die cuts are from Simon Says Stamp, My Favorite Things and More! Hopefully there are no tricks... if I had to choose one I'm going to guess the wood "Handmade by" buttons. Only one way to find out.. visit the team!

I made EIGHT cards (just because I had to prove to myself that everything does work well together) so here goes! 
Wow that was ALOT right? I'm grateful and thankful for crafty friends like you and to thank you I'm having a giveaway on my Instagram

Jeanne! Wow, these are wonderful.i really wish I had your gift for combining papers and your composition sense. These are so fun. I love the blenders card. It would never enter my mind to row those up. You are a smart cookie!

Cindy Beach said...

Crafty friends really ARE the best. Jeanne, thank you for such a terrific kit. Your creativity is the best gift of all! Your use of these supplies and your talents with color and patterns are phenomenal. I love that little monkey card best.

Very nice collection. Must take awhile to gather cohesive items. I love your abstract and paint pans of color cards. Those little mice are so cute and I love that palette. I have that Vicki Boutin paper, in fact I might have 2, so will have to recreate a couple of your fun backgrounds. Thanks.

WOW!!! When I grow up I want to be able to put PP together just like you Jeanne!! Each one of your cards is FABULOUS and I'm just blown away by the composition of each one! This was such a FUN and bright and happy kit Jeanne, and celebrating crafty friends was perfect! I enjoyed every minute of creating with your wonderful kit, so thank you, thank you...you outdid yourself! Hugs and Happy Leap Day!! :0)

Jeanne all of your cards are beyond fantastic, so classic you! You are the only crafter I know that can put together patterns in the most wonderful way, so high vie to you! One day maybe you can teach me. Thank you for the kit, I had a lot of fun playing with it and I could have kept going if I allowed myself more time. This is the first time I have felt really inspired in a long time, so thank you my friend! xoxo

Jeanne...first thank you so much for the incredible kit, so much fun to play with. Love all the fun critters and beautiful patterned paper. Love all your wonderful cards, so much fabulous details added to each one. Love your paint brush card the most, those water colored squares are genius, just perfect with that wonderful sentiment! Really love each one your creations, each one just as beautiful as the next! Thank you again for the amazing kit!

Eight record breaking, fabulous cards Jeanne! I love the artsy and crafty friends theme you went with. I totally agree with you that crafty friends really are the best! I agree with everyone, wishing that I could put printed papers and elements together like you do. There's so much eye candy and inspiration here, I couldn't possibly pick a favorite. Thank so much for a super fun kit!!
