A Special Blog Hop



Sharron Gregory





This special blog hop is for our friend Sharron Gregory, who passed away a few weeks ago from heart problems . 

 Sharron was such a kind and caring person . Sharron always loved cute animals, birds, nature and so much more. I tried to combine a few of the many things Sharron loved on this card. 

Long ago I admired a little snowman card that Sharron made, next thing I know I get an envelope filled with stamped and die-cut snowman with all the extras, hats, scarves and much more. Sharron stamped so many for me I still have lots left even years later. 
Sharron and I were in the The12 Kits of Occasions  group from the beginning , I will miss her kindness and beautiful heart. 

When I think of Sharron I will remember the special gift she was in my life, the joy she brought to everyone and I will always think of her with a heavy heart and smile.

We Got This


Hello, I pray that you are all staying well and finding the joy and blessings in each day.  Yes, somedays can be harder than the next or even from one moment to the next. Look for the blessing .
We got this sweet friends ! 


 I needed two sympathy cards within in 24 hours. This one will be going to a beautiful friend who's father passed away, he was just a few months from his 100th birthday.  May he Rest In Peace. 

I absolutely love this Lily die from The Greetery , its die only no stamps needed just add what ever kind of color you want. I used my TE Blender Brushes , I know the shading is not in the right places as a real lily but I think it's pretty.

In Loving Memory of a Dear Friend



We will not be posting cards for the last day of the month at the 12 Kits of Occasions for March.


It is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our dear friend   Sharron Gregory On Papillon Wings
Sharron passed away yesterday morning, March 30 from heart complications, as she was home recovering. Sharron was an original or our 12 Kits of Occasions group, I will miss dearly.

We will do a tribute at another time.

Please keep her husband, Harry and family in your prayers during what is already a hard time for all.
Everyday is a gift. God bless you all and your families.

Looking Forward



Welcome to the Keeping Christmas blog hop.

Hello sweet friends! Hoping you are all safe and well.

 I'm so looking forward to Christmas this year! I am keeping busy making a few Christmas cards. I used a Christmas kit from the past, that was such a joy to have and still is, its called: All Through the House from Papertrey Ink designed by Betsy Veldman ( who is now the owner of: The Greetery)


Some of the images are diecut and stamped and some are diecut from patterned paper included in the kit. 


If I may recommend to many of you, that you look through your older kits,   so many of us bought and just have fun with them. Go ahead and make some quick and easy cards using up some of that paper that came those kits.  Have fun, take care!

Crafty Friends are Best



Hello there crafty friends! Welcome to the February:12 Kits of Occasions !
 Our host for the month is the very talented :Jeanne Jachna!
 Jeanne is the queen of patterned paper and color on her cards! Not only did Jeanne die cut and stamp all of the above , Jeanne made enough kits for guest designers as well!


I had so much fun putting my cards together and as always kept most of them CAS . I thought the one above might be fun for a little one to color in ( or an adult :)




 I  fussy cut the bird above out of one of the papers included in the kit!
The card below was so fun to put together as Jeanne had everything already die cut.



I love these sweet crafty buddies!


 Here is a photo of all the cards in one place.






I really love the paint palette 🎨  cards as they are simple and bright!

Long post so keeping it simple. Please go to the  12 Kits of Occasions  BLOG  to see the list of all the designers and see the supply list in the upper tab.
Thank you so very much for the visit today!

Happy Birthday to my grandson who turns 4 or 16 today! :)

God bless!

Keeping Christmas

updated blog hop list

 Hi there ! A month has gone by and it's time for another Keeping Christmas blog hop.
We do this hop to help us/you  keep up with Christmas cards, all year long.
 I have decided to  try and make my cards a bit more CAS and easy to mail.


Each card varies just a bit! I used Annuals stamp set from Concord & 9th for my main stamp. The background :Windowpane Plaid Background Stamp is from The Greetery!


You can join the hop with all the links below
