Best Summer Ever

photo by Lindsey

Hello ! I hope you all had a wonderful July!

I am the host for the month of July and chose this Echo Park Paper 

called : Best Summer Ever. 

 The card above was very simple to make , the sentiment is from Concord & 9th

I love this striped paper and thought it was a pretty backdrop for this Concord  & 9th  Florals Stamp set.

I used the TE ink blending brushes and some oxide inks to change the color of this popsicle then used a shimmer pen to try and make it look cold.

This one above is probably my favorite and more my style. I fussy cut the Altenew : Golden Garden stamp set, watercolored it with Zig pens. The jar is from the Greetery. Love that three step jar.

 Please stop by the 12 Kits of Occasions blog HERE to see the rest of the designers and the list of supplies in the upper tab.

I hope you have a wonderful August...fall is around the corner !!!!(kinda)

Christmas In July 12 Kits

Welcome to the 12 Kits of Occasions!

Cathy Weber is our host this month and she sent us 

Christmas in July!  Thank you Cathy! It was so nice making Christmas cards while we were

 having such warm weather.  I loved the country feel to this beautiful  kit. 

I still have so many leftovers for more cards and tags. 

 Our guest this month is someone we all know and love: Lisa Elton

Welcome Lisa! 

 We are sad to say, farewell to our talented and kind friend : Kelly Schirmer. Kelly 

 has been with the 12 Kits since the beginning and she will be missed. Family always comes first. 

I smoshed the straw that was in the kit and adhered it with some score tape.

I cut the green tag out using Poppystamps new stitched tags.

I made my cards the first week of receiving this fun kit and

  I  kinda like how this tag turned out using Stitched Mainstreet Tags 

 Don’t you love the plaid and polka dots!
