Every month we take turns making a kit for the rest of the group. We all receive the same kit with the same items. On the last day of the month we reveal what we each made with the kit. It's fun to see how we used the product in different ways. Sometimes the projects are similar and sometimes they are very different.

Our hostess this month is Birgit Norton from craftingwhileIwait.blogspot.com. She's put together a kit that we're calling Fall Splendor! It's loaded with sweet images from Honey Bee Stamps, Concord & 9th and dies from Impression Obsession, Echo Park, Frantic Stamper and Lawn Fawn. The pretty papers are from Carta Bella Fall Market Collection. I made 5 cards so here goes....

12 Kits of Occasions - Summer Fun!

It's the last day of the month and you know what that means right? It's time for The 12 Kits of Occasions! The 12 Kits of Occasions is a group of 12 friends who all love to paper craft. Every month we take turns making a kit for the rest of the group. We all receive the same kit with the same items. On the last day of the month we reveal what we each made with the kit. It's fun to see how we used the product in different ways. Sometimes the projects are similar and sometimes they are very different.

Our hostess this month is Birgit Norton - Crafting While I Wait! Her kit is a ray of summer sunshine in paper! There are beach going penguins, palm trees and pretty hibiscus flowers! The papers are from Echo Park's Summer Fun Collection. When I was done making there were only two things I didn't use.. the pretty green and pink sequins, and the twine. Very strange because I'm always adding embellishments whenever I can. I can't keep my hands off the PPP jewels I guess!

Tag You're It - Spring Flowers

Hi and thanks for stopping by! I hope you're having a great day! A new challenge begins at Tag You're It and I think you're going to like it!

The inspiration this time is SPRING FLOWERS! I love this adorable teapot filled with so many colorful blooms.

I'm playing along with this tag I made recreating the image on the inspiration.

I was lucky enough to find a pretty teapot die AND bitty florals from Impression Obsession in my stash! I adhered the die cuts to a Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Duo One tag to mimic the shape of the tag on the impression.

Want to play along? You can find all the details and link up your design here at the Tag You're It Challenge Blog!

Happy crafting!

It's another beautiful kit this month.. this time it's by Hostess: Lisa Elton from My Paper Tales.

I've enjoyed getting to know each of the ladies in this team a little better every month. They're the best support group because we have so much in common.

Lisa's style always fascinates me. Her projects have a soft feminine look. She gravitates to pastels, and I love the details she adds - a perfectly placed bit of bling to satisfy my inner diva!

Want to see more projects made with this kit? Head on over to The 12 Kits of Occasions blog where you'll find a sample from each of the team members as well as a list of ingredients in the kit. Lisa has a giveaway there for two lucky commenters too!

The 12 Kits of Occasions - My Little Chickadee

It's the last day of the month and you know what that means right? It's time for The 12 Kits of Occasions! The 12 Kits of Occasions is a group of 12 friends who all love to paper craft. Every month we take turns making a kit for the rest of the group. We all receive the same kit with the same items. On the last day of the month we reveal what we each made with the kit. It's fun to see how we used the product in different ways. Sometimes the projects are similar and sometimes they are very different.

Our hostess with the mostest this time is Lisa Elton from My Paper Tales! You might also know Lisa from her design team work at Pretty Pink Posh or the Precious Remembrance Shop! Lisa has a beautiful creative style. She always adds the perfect embellishments - embossing or pretty sequins, lace or glitter! 

The theme of the kit is My Little Chickadee. Goodies inside included papers from October Afternoon; stamped images from Impression Obsession; wood veneer birds; and dies from Pretty Pink Posh. The trixie for me this time were the Theresa Collins punched feathers. I stacked mine up in a pile to punch - I wanted to thread a string through them... anyway.. long story short.. they didn't cut so well so you won't see any here! :(

I made 5 cards with the kit so here goes...
