I was the lucky winner of Birgit's first, 12 Kits of Occasions and was asked to be a Guest Designer for the month of May. I was a little nervous about it that I wouldn't have mojo to create cards that someone else had picked out all of the pieces. But once I got the kit, I was quite surprised how easy it was to create the cards. I made 4 on the first day and they came together quite easily. Of course, I started with my comfort zone which is CAS and flowers. The others with more layering came together too although not as easily. It was a lot of fun and I ended up with 7 cards. Thank you Birgit, great kit....
Thanks for stopping by.
Oh Linda, each and every one of your cards is so darling!!! Your water coloring skills are amazing and I'm totally in awe. The freesia card is stunning and I hope you don't mind me CASE-ing it. You did such a great job on the layered cards as well and I'm so glad you enjoyed getting out of your comfort zone a bit. It's been so fun seeing how everyone has used the ingredients in my first kit. Thank you so much for being my guest this month. You're a great addition to our group post and I love that you're a dear friend as well!
ReplyDeleteHi Lin! Your cards are all delightful! Not hard at all with this kit. You put each element together with the beautiful papers, and made them shine! Trying to find one I like best, but all are so special! Ramona and her wagon? Loved how you popped her up! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteNot sure why you were nervous Lin as you totally rocked this challenge! LOVE every one of your cards!! Of course you do flowers so FABULOUSLY well that I really do love each one of those, but totally adore your CAS retro card with the baking utensils and also loving the little girl pulling the wagon that you water colored! This was such a FUN kit to play with wasn't it?! So glad you won and got to play alongside all these talented ladies too...I am always blown away by all the talent in that group! Hope you and Colleen are having a wonderful time together this week and can't wait to see all your creations!! :0)
