The 12 Kits of Occasions: July 2014



Am I the only one who feels like the summer is racing by?  Here we are at the end of July already.  It's time for the big reveal for the 12 Kits of Occasions.  Our host this month is Tracey and the theme is Christmas and winter.  Living in Toronto, Tracey sure knows winter.  I mean real winter.  The kind of winter involving snow.  She sent us the most fabulous kit chock full of so many amazing goodies.

Here is a picture of the kit Tracey sent.

So many wonderful ingredients, and so easy to work with.  My cards practically put themselves together.  I was able to make 9 cards and 1 pillowbox gift holder, and I still have lots left over.  Thank you, Tracey, for putting together such an incredible kit.




















Well, that's it for me for today.  I cannot wait to look to see what every one else did.  Here are links to all the other designers. Please click here for a complete supply list.

  2. What a fun assortment of cards...
    love them!
    And my favorite is that pillbox...
    those sentiments are perfect for it!
    Mine was bent beyond saving by the PO during transport so I didn't get to play with it :(...
    love what you did with it though.

  6. I'm always inspired and love to see how your mind thinks. It's like you were on a roll and you just had to keep going to get them out of your mind. One wonderful card after another! I dont see any gold sequins here either!

  7. One of the major school districts in town started today, so yes, summer is GONE! The kits y'all do are such fun! You guys really get creative with them. It makes me miss how my friend and I used to send each other our "scraps" and then make stuff out of them. Love your selection of winter cards. Now then, summer might be gone, but let's not rush into winter!! Please!!!!

  15. Brilliant kit from Tracey, and amazing creations by you!! If I were forced to choose among them, and it's no easy task, I'd have to say I'm loving the first card with the birch trees, but I am also crazy mad for your gingerbread card. All are fantastic! Bev

  19. Joyce, this was your kit! So many wonderful cards all ready to send out for the holidays. I love them all. So fun, festive and creative too. And you made so so many cards. Your tree cards are my favorite of your collection. I was stumped on how to use that sweet little tree and you totally nailed it. Can't wait to case a few of your cards with all my leftovers.
