Have a Holly Jolly Christmas and a Festive Fall - November '15


Can you believe that it's the 30th of November?
I hope that all of my American friends had a Wonderful Thanksgiving Weekend with your families.
It's time for this month's edition of The 12 Kits of Occasions.  Kim Heggins, Cupcakes, Card & Kim, is our hostess this month and she sent us a fun kit with polka dots, the sweetest die cut images and embellishments to play with.  Kim was sweet enough to send me a self assembling kit. My cards seemed to come together effortlessly.

Moving right into the cards so that you can continue on the hop...







Pop back to the 12 Kits of Occasions blog to see what the other girls have done with Kim's kit!

Muse #143



Good Monday Morning and it is my week over at Muse!


I had some fun playing with Mama Elephant's Reindeer Games and Twinkle Towns stamps and dies. The sentiment is heat embossed in gold and the reindeer flying over the town is popped up with foam tape.


I can't wait to see what you will be inspired to create over at Muse this week!
