Hello!
It's time to share this month's 12 Kits of Occasions with you!
I love this kit from Kelly.
Not only was I able to make several cards and tags, but it was the inspiration for the 'theme' of my gift wrap this year. I like to change it a little each year. Last year was silver and red. This year something completely different, kraft and gray/silver. You'll see as you get towards the end of this post. This month we not only have a special guest, but also a giveaway.
The special guest designer is Karen Stein!
I don't know Karen so I'm excited to check out her blog and get to know her a little bit.
GIVEAWAY
To win an Echo Park paper pad from this kit visit the 12 Kits blog to enter!
I love that even though the papers I used are gray, black, and white, there is still some green and red peeking out from underneath! All of my tags and gift wrapped packages have been spritzed with shimmer spray and have a wonderful shine to them!
Don't forget to see what everyone else has created and enter the giveaway here!

I loved it so much last year I bought extra for this year but I'm adding in some black and "chalkboard" touches to make it a "little" different! :)

ReplyDeleteKara your cards and tags are all so beautiful. I love how you embraced the black and silver, the two ornaments on the first card are so elegant. I definitely love how you used the ds patterns for your bows.
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!! These are Amazing! Love the b and w card so perfect and that deer OMG!!! It is stuninning - so stunning that I can't spell correctly!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for being so inspiring!
You used the kit elements so beautifully, as always! I love the sophistication of the first card in black, white, and silver. I almost didn't recognize the deer image on the second card--what a gorgeous inked background you added! And your gift packaging is gorgeous. Our presents at home are just standard-issue wrapping paper, but I like to dress up the ones we take to friends and family. The kraft, black, and silver is a beautiful and unique combo!
