The 12 Kits of Occasions are celebrating Christmas this month. What a great theme for hot, steamy July! It has been unusually hot in Kansas this summer but the worse part is the humidity which we don't normally have with high temperatures. Marybeth was our very talented hostess and sent an amazing collection of Christmas beauties. See the wonderful collage photo that Lindsey did for us below. There were beautiful papers, great die cuts and fun images. I still have several adorable little critters that I haven't used yet so it will be fun to see what everyone else made and do some CASing! To see all the great creations yourself, click HERE to connect to the 12 Kits blog.

Hi Sharron!!! First, I must report that we've 8 chrysalis so far! =]

LOve those dots as back-lights for our sweet Frosty - isn't he the cutest - and love his thoughts on being Merry - though I did think he'd choose Peter, or Paul? pa dum dum ... lovely gallery of coolness!

Your cards are ALL so beautiful Sharon, where to begin? Love seeing how you took all the lovely papers and classy elements and with created your style. Your coloring on the holly and berries a bright standout with the ga!
PS, forgot to say, love how the sentiment grounds frosty, in the Let's be Merry card!
My goodness Sharron they all look store bought! I love your holly card and you are too funny, I do love to add glossy accents and your card is perfect with it added to your berries! I really like the simple (a gift for you ) card with the flowers added to that one...its simply gorgeous! You made my kit shine and I thank you!
Humidity is the worst, I am not a fan of heat or humidity . I thin this is one of the hottest Julys we have had in a long time. I feel so bad for anyone without the comfort of Air or a pool. Cant wait for fall!
Once again you have filled my mind with so many creative ideas for my leftovers!! You worked your magic with Marybeth's kit Sharron, these are all so PRETTY!! Love your frosty card. Looks like he's a happy little fella tossing snowflakes and golden polka dots into the air!!
What a wonderful array of cards here Sharron! You showcased Marybeth's kit wonderfully!!
Such a fabulous collection of holiday cards that you've created with this kit, Sharron! I've always been a huge fan of gold (embossing, bling, ink, you name it!), so it's no surprise that I am loving each and every one of your cards!
This is such an elegant kit, and I love the cards you've made with it, Sharron! That gold foiled paper is to die for!
Sharon what a gorgeous collection of cards you made with Marybeth's kit!! I adore,what you did with your snowman and the colouring of the holy is wonderful! You made this,kit really shine!
So many fabulous cards Sharron! And swoon.. all that gold that you photographed so beautifully! So smart to add gold embossing too! I love the red berries with the glossy accents - you totally cased Marybeth with those! I really love the last one because I didnt want to cover up that paper, but at the same time it never occurred to me to add some solid card stock for that gold die cut sentiment. So pretty and elegant I need to case that one!
Oh my goodness, Sharron ... where to start?? What a treat to see all these delicious, gold themed Christmas cards ... each is just so lovely! I've scrolled up and down numerous times trying to pick a favourite, but it changes so often I've decided they're all my faves!! Thanks for the wonderful inspiration! Bon dimanche! Hugs, Anita :)
Sharron as usual you made the most stunning cards with your kit! You did some many things I never thought of and added the perfect sentiment. Lots of lovely gold embossing and your colouring is on point!
