The 12 Kits of Occasions: Walking in a Winter Wonderland with Lindsey

It's that time again!! This month the members of the 12 Kits of Occasions are playing in a Winter Wonderland, courtesy of our sweet hostess, Lindsey, Occasional Crafting! Below is a picture of some things in her kit. I so wish you could see this in real life. The colors are absolutely gorgeous and there is LOTS of sparkle!! I knew when I took photos of my cards that they weren't going to even be close to what they really look like. Lindsey did such an amazing job of selecting papers and elements. There is something for everyone--from elegant to whimsical! You are going to love touring all the blogs!

I know everyone has been super busy lately but I hope you can take some time to see all the wonderful projects. Lindsey also asked two people to be guest designers so there is lots to see. Click here to go to the 12 Kits blog. There are links to the members blogs as well as the blogs of our two wonderful guests. There is also a contest where Lindsey is giving visitors a chance to win a fantastic Clearly Besotted stamp set. It's one that has been discontinued so you don't want to miss this chance!

I LOVED THE AVERY ELLE WREATH THAT LINDSEY SENT US BUT UNFORTUNATELY MESSED IT UP.
I WAS SET ON USING THESE WONDERFUL COMPANION ELEMENTS SO USED MY CHISHOLM WREATH BY SSS AS A FILL-IN. SENTIMENT AND STARS ARE FROM MFT HAND LETTERED HOLIDAY SET.






Don't you love the adorable deer on this last card! He is one of the stamps in the set Lindsey is giving away so be sure to leave a comment over on the 12 Kits blog to have a chance to win.

Enjoy the hop! Wishing everyone a very blessed 2016!!

Beautiful cards, Sharron! It is so hard to capture the sparkle & shine in a photo, but you've done a great job.

Kim Heggins said...

Just fabulous Sharron...love all your wonderful cards! I am in love with your second card and how you used those that winter greenery, so fabulous paired with the sliver sparkle! Wishing you a very Happy New Year!

Nancy Penir said...

Hi Sharon! looks like you had a ball creating your cards. So full of joy! Beautiful colors, and sweet elements, what could be better!

Jeanne J. said...

Oh Sharron! Wasnt this kit so fun? All that sparkle and shine on your cards is making me giddy! I love the little mountain scene on the wood background, that blinged out twig wreath and of course the polka dots with the dot wreath - very clever!

Bhavana said...

Amazing cards. Loved all sparkle and shine you used :)

Anita in France said...

All the shimmer and shine is gorgeous, Sharron ... such a fantastic selection of cards! My particular favourite is that cute leaping reindeer ... he's perfect paired with that fun sentiment! Happy New Year! Anita :)

Oh my goodness, Sharron! I Wish I had a hundred more of these darling reindeer, don't you? Lindsey included so many birds, which we love, and I also love that you combined the pink polka with the grey - stunning! We could have a second-helping card day with Lindsey's kit, couldn't we? Happiest New Year, my friend!

Lisa Elton said...

You've done an amazing job with Lindsey's kit Sharron!! These are all just wonderful. I really like the second one with the pine branch and sparkle!! Have a Happy and Blessed New Year!!

Lindsey said...

Sharron, your cards are amazing! I can't tell you how fun it is to see how you've used my kit. I'm thrilled you like it! You're first card is just stunning! Definitely CASEing that one! But I love how you used them all! Great idea to layer the tape, so you could die cut it and I love how you "saved" the AE wreath. And your placement of the sequins, pearls, glitter, and all the other extras add so much to all of your creations. You did such a fantastic job with this kit!

Darnell said...

Sharron, these are all beautifully done!! That adorable deer really does work perfectly to close out your post with warm fuzzies! Love it!! Happy - and fuzzy - New Year Hugs to you!! Darnell

Diane Jaquay said...

Hi Sharron, hope you had a wonderful Christmas! I love each and every one of these cards, they're all so clean, crisp, and simple but definitely not boring. The pretty colors combined with the bits of sparkle you added here and there make for some seriously BEAUTIFUL cards!!

Joyce said...

Wow, Sharron. You did such a fantastic job with your kit. I love all your creations, especially the one with the leaping deer, since I did not get to use him. Happy New Year.

The Paper Parade said...

Sharron, what beautiful cards you created. I think I like the wreath one with cheers to the new year the best, that green and purple look so classy together! But then again I absolutely love the mountain scene with the woodgrain background, oh so beautiful!

Judy1223 said...

Oh, what a wonderful set of cards, you did a great job using all those crafty goodies in the kit this month! I really love the silver "merry" on your CASology card. Thanks for joining in the MERRY fun at CASology...and Happy New Year!

Jen W. said...

What a gorgeous collection of cards, Sharron! They're all so much fun! I love the sparkle and the ombre pinecones of your CASology entry but I also think that chubby little reindeer is pretty adorable. :) Thanks for playing along with CASology!

Tracey McNeely said...

You made so many beautiful cards with Lindsey's kit Sharron! I love how you used the mountains and your wreath is really gorgeous!! I am going to be CASEing some of these. ;)
