The 12 Kits of Occasions: September, 2016


It's time for our September 12 Kits of Occasions group post.  Our host this month is Jeanne from A Kept Life, and her theme is "This is Halloween".  I am not kidding you when I say that my kit arrived in a large cardboard BOX, bursting at the seams.  Here is a peek at the Kit Jeanne sent.

Here are the cards I made this month.  I kind of left it to the last minute, and I am so glad that I got the self assembling card kit.  7 cards magically put themselves together before I could blink.  Of course, I have so many left over supplies--wonderful bits I just did not have time to work with--I am set for life for Halloween.

I used so many of the elements in this kit, but still have so much left over.  Thanks so much, Jeanne, for sending such a wonderful kit.

That's it for me today.  Please visit us over at the 12 Kits of Occasions blog, where you can see a list of all the other designers and click over to their blogs.  You can also see who are 2 special Guest Designers are this month.


Thanks for Visiting

    Have to say, the sweet mummy passing by the hi lighted list is a favorite. A 'why didn't I think of that' moment, for sure. All just wonderful, Joyce! And I agree, they all seem to come together on their own!

    Last minute or not these are CAS darlings! Love the haunted hill with just a strip of paper to the side. Wonderful cards from Jeanne's Kit!

    I don't know about you, but I find it CRAZY that we both went for the highlighter pen on that mummy card, and that we both then used the mummy in EXACTLY the same way. Great minds, I guess... Terrific job with all of these!

    These are too cute to spook Joyce!! The highlighted line on the first card with the mummy is too clever and I like the pop of purple behind 'Boo'. Awesome job with Jeanne's Kit!!

    Joyce so many fabulous cards! I love that you do things that I never even think to do--like highlighting #4 (you are Richard both did that--wow), the haunted house with the flag, such a great use of the candy corn paper and the last card with all the ghosts on black! You did an awesome job!

    Sorry I'm late Joyce - computer problems for me!! My favorite this time is the last one with all the ghosts! They just look like they're floating in the air - all different sizes and shapes. I have to admit.. a bit too much for even me to work with this time - I'm glad everyone was able to play with their favorites!

    Seven magical cards, indeed, Joyce! You obviously had fun playing with the kit's assortment of fabulous elements, just as I did! I see plenty of ideas for 'leftovers' in my collection; casing sure to happen! What an honour to be playing alongside you and the others this month!

    These are fantastic, Joyce! My favorite is your mummy card with the highlighted sentiment. LOVE that idea! Love how you were able to use so much patterned paper, too, while still maintaining such wonderful clean designs.

    WOW! Look at all those cards! First off your first card is making me giggle! I love how you highlighted one on the list, goes perfect with the adorable mummy :) Then I love how much your haunted house card stands out on the white. The ghost card is awesome how you mixed all the different ghosts together!
