A Whimsical Garden - March '19



It's the last day of the month and time for this month's post for The 12 kits of Occasions
I know I say this every month, but wow is time every going fast!

Our hostess this month is Lisa Elton, My Paper Tales, and she sent us the most delightful kit full of just what we all need---some springtime goodness! Lisa sent us all the most beautiful patterned papers to work with along with so many lovely stamps and die cuts, most of which I have never seen before. Thank you Lisa for the lovely kit and thank you to our resident photographer Lindsey for taking our kit photo for us again this month!

Lisa is giving away two mini kits this month on so make sure you stop by the 12 Kits of Occasions blog to find out the details of how you can you can have a chance to win!

I was able to make 4 cards this month but I have lots left over to make a couple more cards. I saved a few pieces because I wanted to see what everyone else did with them first. This is what I made...

Lisa sent you all a really pretty kit this month. All those papers are full of lovely Springtime essence. Your first card has captured my heart, as has the second one with all those pretty flowers. Snow is alright, but I think it's time for us to see flowers. These are all lovely, Tracey. Have a good week. Bev

Each of your cards is so beautiful, Tracey! I am in love with your window shaker design with the beautiful paper and sequins inside and the flower market on the outside! Each of your designs really highlights those gorgeous papers and allows them to be displayed without taking over the sentiment and other elements. Fantastic cards using this lovely kit!

A breath of spring indeed, Tracey, these are all just so lovely ... soft, feminine and absolutely delightful! Hugs, Anita :)

All four of your cards are just beautiful Tracey. Each one shows off these lovely papers just perfectly! What a clever idea to cut a window out of the storefront card and make a shaker card. I love it!!! Your cards are just brimming with spring hope.

Love all your sweet cards Tracey! Your first card with those beautifully colored flowers is simply stunning and your sweet window shaker is pure genius! Love how you paired that sweet rain sentiment withe rain boot paper, adorable! And your thanks card is as sweet as can be! Wishing you a wonderful day!

Lisa Elton said...

And what four beautiful cards they are! I like the fresh clean designs on each one Tracey. You've used the PP beautifully. I love that you made a window shaker with the garden shed paper, what a cute idea! I'm happy my kit brought some Spring to your neck of the woods. Thanks for making my kit shine!

Yay, you did a shaker! Love your flower shop window--my favorite! Wasn't Lisa's kit amazing. Those papers were all so pretty and you used them so well. Your beautifully colored flowers look perfect with the wreath paper!
