The 12 Kits of Occasions: October, 2016



It's time for our October 12 Kits of Occasions group post.  Our host this month is Michele from I Card Everyone and her theme is "Let's be Thankful".  Michele sent a wonderful kit full of beautiful patterned papers, some fun fabric trims, die cute, and much, much more.

Here is a peek at the kit Michele sent.


There is a lot to see, so I'll get right to it.














I am entering this last card at CAS(E) This Sketch #196, where they are having a special challenge featuring cards with pets.


I used so many of the elements in this kit, but still have so much left over.  Thanks so much, Michele, 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 is our special Guest Designer this month.


Thanks for Visiting

  12. Joyce, these are fantastic! Great idea to cut out the typewriters, and I love that you used the trims. I thought they were so fun (so did Meg...she walked off with some :) ), but I wasn't sure how to make it work. Now I know. :) I really love your healing wishes card, too, and your rest, relax, recover card is amazing.
