12 Kits of Occasions - May 2016


It's the last day of the month, which means I get to share my 12 Kits of Occasions projects. :) Our wonderful hostess this month is Sharron (from On Papillion Wings) and her "Here Comes the Sun" kit couldn't have been more perfect to get me in the mood for summer.  My son finished preschool last week, and I have every intention of making this our best summer ever before he starts kindergarten. (I can't even think about that...I'm so sad!) But, this kit is all about sunshine and happiness, and since I'm a bit late posting this I'll get on to the cards. 

 One of my nieces has beautiful red hair, so I used her as the inspiration for this Hawaiian cutie.

I decided to go with the more colorful versions of toucan and plumeria here.  I think I was just having a lot of fun delving into my zig colors. :)
I love this little guy.  But really, everything in this kit was so so cute! Okay, I've got to run, but please head to the 12 Kits of Occasions blog to check out all the other designer's cards.  They are amazing!!

  9. Lindsey, how exciting that you are about to embark on the best summer ever with your little guy :) I hope it is everything you both have dreamed of, and what beautiful cards to get your mojo going! Loving that beach scene you set up on the first one, the red hair on the hula girl is beautiful (I'm sure just like your niece!) and I absolutely LOVE the layout of the parrot card, so awesome with that splatter of color behind him, I need to try that!

  10. Lindsey so happy to hear that you are going to make this the best summer ever with your little man. Oh I remember my little man finishing preschool and now he is entering his last year of University--I am a mixture of happy and sad. You created the most amazing cards again this month.I love your circle beach scene, the red haired little hula girls modeled after your niece and the gecko card are among my favs. All your cards are sunshiny and ready for summer! Beautiful!

  11. Lindsey, I'm so sorry to be late visiting. All of your cards are fantastic, so full of summer goodness. Your coloring is awesome! Love your tropical beach scene, just perfect with the sentiment. And your hula girl with the gorgeous red hair is wonderful. The splash of color behind the toucan design is fantastic and how fun to use the gecko with the sunrays. Hope your summer is everything you want it to be. Time does fly so quickly so enjoy each day with your little ones!
