Hi there, are you ready for June!
Welcome to this months edition of 12 Kits of Occasions of Occasions for May! Our host for the month is Tracey McNeely . Tracey sent some beautiful plaid papers and fun things for the celebrations of June, as you can see in the photo above.
I was a bit afraid I would mess up this pretty bloom but glad I went ahead and watercolored it. I added some shimmer to the center but not sure you can see in this picture.
This was fun to make as Tracey had everything we needed included in the kit!
The little girl was holding an apple but I wanted her to have a few bouquets of flowers in her hand. I added a few of my own from Papertrey Ink .
Time is flying by so fast for me, life is full and full of so many blessings. We are still working hard on the remodel and happy to check a few things of the list.
I am so sorry for all the people suffering from the floods, my heart and prayers go out to you.
Please stop by the 12 Kits of Occasions blog to see what the rest of the group has created with the same kit.
I hope you have a wonderful June.
What a lovely lineup of cards here Marybeth! Your CAS style is so inspiring to me. I love your giant pink daisy with the pink ladybug. So cute and your watercoloring is perfect!! Great job turning that little girl into a grad, with the pretty bouquet of flowers. So clever and as sweet as can be!! Glad to hear your renovations are coming along. It's so wonderful when you can sit back when it's over and just take it all in and relax.
ReplyDeleteI am never disappointed after a visit to your blog my friend! That daisy look s fabulous watercoloured and I am amazed that the paper head up to the water, but it did and looks so lovely! The pencil birthday card is so cute and you reveal wheel with the feathers look amazing for the Father's Day card, so masculine! The last card with the grad cap and the flowers is so sweet, I love the minimal colouring on her shoes! Good luck finishing up the remodel! xo
ReplyDeleteFour simply fabulous cards...love them all! Your sweet flower is simply stunning and I love that you colored yours in pink. And your sweet little lady, so stinking clever to put that graduation cap on her and having her hold all those beautiful flowers, looks so sweet.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful cards Marybeth! I'm loving your Gerbera Daisy card and so glad to see I wasn't the only one who created a "pink" ladybug! LOVE your pencil birthday card too and of course the Father's Day card and Graduation card too! Your CAS style always blows me away Marybeth! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteI'm gasping over your gorgeous daisy, Marybeth! The watercoloring is amazing! Your pencil birthday card and feather Father's Day cards are such perfect CAS designs!

ReplyDeleteI can tell you enjoyed Tracey's kit too Marybeth, these are all such a treat. Your pink daisy is beautiful, I ruined mine ~ shucks! Love that you gave the little graduate a bouquet of flowers and how fun that our jumbo pencil cards are so similar. Fabulous work!
ReplyDeleteSo happy you chose pink watercolors for your daisy, it's gorgeous! I was like you a little nervous to even start any coloring, afraid to mess up that awesome bloom! Love Miss Smarty Pants with her bouquet and cap, she's adorable. And the feather and pencil designs are CAS perfection! Hope you have a wonderful summer and the remodel continues to go well!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous selection of cards, Marybeth ... I particularly love the gerbera! Your colouring is just fantastic ... and what a sweet touch to have a pink ladybird with it! Empathising with your state of busy-ness ... do hope your remodel continues to go just as you wish it to! Hugs, Anita :)
