Good morning! As shocking as it is that July has come to an end, I'm super excited to share the cards I made with this month's 12 Kits of Occasions kit. My dear friend Marybeth put together a fun summery kit, and I enjoyed every minute of creating my cards. I was so excited that she included Pretty Pink Posh's Flourishing Fuchsias...it's super high on my wish list! I had full intentions to color the flowers, but was pretty delighted to see that they look great in just black and white. And there is something about the combo of colored stripes with black and white that that I just love, so I left them as is.
I was also thrilled to see several of Purple Onion Designs stamps from Stacey Yacula in the kit. I think her artwork is the cutest! Our family just got back from a vacation to the beach, so I paired the VW Bus with a fun beach paper in the kit.As mom life would have it, I only got two of my cards photographed before a storm rolled in, but I actually made five cards, so stay tuned.
In the meantime, make sure you head to the 12 Kits of Occasions Blog to see the fabulous creations made by my teammates. I sure love this group of ladies. They make these monthly kits so much fun.
UPDATE: I got the rest of my cards photographed. Yay! You can see the rest of them HERE.
You're so right Lindsey, the fushcia's look fabulous with the striped paper. Very graphic and stunning!! Your little friends going to the beach is adorable too. Putting the surf board on top of the van was pure genius!! Enjoy the rest of your summer and I can't wait to see the other cards you've made.
ReplyDeleteDarling Lindsey, your cards are adorable, but it's your sweet comments between photos that always get me. LOVE reading what you write. Your sweet soul shines through with every sentence. Love you, and LOVE your cards! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteAnd a wonderful two cards they are!! The first is lovely and the second so darn cute! I like that you added the van on a tilt. A beach vacation sure sounds good to me!
ReplyDeleteWell, I absolutely love the first two! Your uncolored card is simply gorgeous ..... Love uncolored! That beach card with the vw bus is just adorable and I love the way you colored it ! I was hoping that paper would make easy background for this busy time of year. I hope you enjoyed your beach trip! I am sure if I don't get back here I will see you next cards on Instagram!
ReplyDeleteTwo times the fun! and I LOVE those fuchsia left uncolored, Lindsey!

Lindsey I think those fuchsias uncolored on the pink strips is brilliant. They're a knock out! You arranged them perfectly peeking out from under the sentiment. The card with the van looks like a fun post card of somewhere I want to be!
ReplyDeleteLove the fresh, pure simplicity of the uncoloured fuchsia against the soft pink stripes, Lindsey ... and those POD critters are just adorable in their fun beach scene! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely so sweet Lindsey, as always my talented friend! Off to see the rest! xoxo
