It's the last day of the month! You know what that means right? Time for the 12 Kits of Occassions! The 12 Kits is a group of friends who are all card designers. We each take turns providing the group with a "kit" of goodies.. pattern paper, stamped images, die cuts, etc. On the last day of the month we all share what we made with the kit. It's fun to see how we did things the same or different. This time the theme is "Song of the South". Think all things home made from the kitchen. Throw in a little gingham, and farm fresh inspiration and I know you're on board! Our hostess this month is Marybeth Lopez from Marybeth's Time For Paper. I love Marybeth's style - you say her name and I'm thinking, elegant... delicate die cuts, glossy accents, and YES! a sprinkle of shiny sequins! More than that, Marybeth is my friend - and has brought me smiles and comfort more times than I can count. OK.. a little business before we get started... you can check out the 12 Kits of Occasions blog here. t has a complete list of all the designers as well as an ingredient list of all the items that were included in this kit. Go ahead, click on it NOW and leave a comment. One person who leaves a comment there will win the May kit and get to join us when it's my turn to supply the goodies! Now for fun! I made four cards with this kit and there is so much more left over! Thank you Marybeth for this amazing kit! I can't wait to case my favorites! I always say there is some element that I'm not sure what to do with . This time for me it was the sunburst and cloud cutouts - look for them when you're hopping around. We have a special guest too this month! Renee Lynch from It's a Patchwork Life. Renee is the originator of the 12 Kits group and it's so good to see her back in action this month! Ready to see more?
