December Kit

Hello and welcome to the 12 Kits of Occasions 

Michelle Leone was our host for the month of December .

She sent us such a beautiful kit filled with so much color and beautiful blooms.

I am doing this write up late at night as I have been busy visiting with family and friends.

I love this last card I made and it all came together so fast with everything done from the kit.

Hi friends! We are running a little behind with the November kit this month due to a post strike.

Our host this month is Tracey McNeely! So many darling items in the kit and ready to go! I loved it!  

I used my Papertrey Ink gift tag dies to make this card using some of the fun Christmas patterned paper the Tracey included its the kit! 

Used some of my Poppystamps dies and my daughters: Merry Christmas stamp she designed in her own writing.

Reindeer Cow!!!!

Make It Monday #341: 

Painted Brushstroke Backgrounds

with Dawn McVey

 Hello ! I'm sure this is not what Dawn had in mind....

This is the deer with antlers 

.....but I always knew I wanted to make the reindeer into a cow .

I thought this weeks Make it Monday might be a fun way to 

give it a try. I did add a bit more strokes after I cut this cow out 

but may have messed her up. Anyway it was fun to give it a try.

I made one more piece of paper with brush strokes to use for another day.
