Well, February seemed to just whoosh by, and now it is the last day of the month and time for our 12 Kits of Occasions post. No matter how long we have been doing these posts, I still get such a thrill of anticipation to see what everyone made with their kits, and this month is no exception. Our host this month is Sharron of On Papillon Wings and she sent truly the most amazing and enormous kit of goodies for us to play with. Seriously, there was enough stuff to make a year's worth of cards. I am definitely going to have fun playing with my leftovers and CASing everyone else's cards. Sharron's theme was birds, and practically everything in her kit was things I did not have.

I only had time to make 5 cards, and my kit pretty much looks untouched.
Just for fun, I finally broke out my Gelatos, and used them to water color this card and the next one.
I was inspired by this gorgeous card by Deepti for my next card.
Thanks for Visiting
Oh, I love birds! These are seriously wonderful cards! I just love that bird holding the heart balloon, and that blue and kraft card is so striking too! What's a kit of occasion? Haven't heard of that before. xx
ReplyDeleteLove all of your feathered friends Joyce, these are terrific!!
ReplyDeleteYes, February did whoosh by, but the good thing about coming to the end of another month is that we get to see what you talented ladies do with another kit! And, wow, you did amazing cards, Joyce! You can't beat a bright and happy card or five!! Hugs, Darnell

ReplyDeleteWonderful cards, Joyce! It's so fun to see all the different designs, just fantastic!
ReplyDeleteLots of clever things here! The last one with the cut up strips is amazing. I think I love the colorful birds best - they're like a rainbow! That music strip got the best of me! Now I know what to do with it!
ReplyDeleteYour homage to Deepti is brilliant, and couldn't help but smile because you used the birds on a wire - I sure wanted to do "ebony and ivory" but just couldn't pull it together!! Love every single, darling, card...

The card with the cut up strips is just genuinely, certifiably AMAZING!! and for your cards with the gelatos - great job!! Your blog post today is just oozing with amazingness and fun!!!

ReplyDeleteFabulous cards, Joyce! Love your rainbow of chickadees! Your CAS designs are all so wonderful. And your last card showing off that patterned paper is positively awesome--LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteWonderful job with your kit cards, Joyce, but you have to know my favorite one has the long legged birdies on it. :)
ReplyDeleteYou always make such a fabulous, versatile set of cards, Joyce! I love how you used the cloud paper in sections...I saved that sheet because I couldn't even cut into it, love it so much :)! The black birds are striking against the stripes and I love those tall birdies all in a row...what a great idea to color them with gelatos. I don't have any yet, but let me tell you I'm faltering each time I see a project with them! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the variety of your cards, Joyce! The way you colored those sketchy chickadees is just wonderful, but I'm totally in awe of the diagonal lines in the last. And your little bird on top of the music notes is adorable...I'm singing the birthday song in my head right now because of it. :)
ReplyDeleteJoyce, these are all just darling! I'm a bird lover and these cards just make me happy!
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful inspiration, Joyce ... these are all so lovely! I'm particularly taken with those long legged chickadees ... they're a fave set in my aviary of sweet bird stamps ... they look gorgeous in their soft sorbet colours! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun kit. Great set. Love those long legged birds. So colorful.
ReplyDeleteJoyce, you totally rocked this kit! So many wonderful and amazing cards. From the looks of all your cards you must have received the kit with the self assembling cards. Your second card is my favorite of the flock, those sweet long leg birds are so fun and so sweet, they really steal the show!
ReplyDeleteJoyce so many gorgeous cards from Sharron's kit! The chickadees and coloured perfectly in keeping with those images--love that you kept them all together! I am always in awe that you are able to consistently knock these kits out of the park!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, Joyce ~ You've done an amazing job with your kit! Your birds are delightful and I love your CASE of Deepti's card!
ReplyDeleteI think this is my favourite kit yet - I LOVE all the birdie stuff! All of your cards are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI might be behind but I'm glad I didn't miss out on the kit post. You've treated the birds in your kit well. Fabulous cards and so creative.
