The 12 Kits of Occasions: December with Michelle "Periwinkle Party"

It's hard to believe this is the very last day of 2018--and the last post of this year for the 12 Kits of Occasions! It is also with sadness that we are saying goodbye to two members of our team. Sweet Jessica Davis, The Paper Parade, who has been with the group from the beginning will be stepping down for now. She and her family are moving and beginning some new adventures that will be her new focus. And our super talented friend, Michele Ferguson, who has shared her creative and witty designs with us for the past few years will also no longer be posting with us. You can continue to visit her blog, I Card Everyone!

We also are welcoming a new designer--Marcia Hill, Marcia's Stamping Pad. She is so talented and very sweet. I was lucky to actually met her recently when she came to Kansas for a crafting event. Be sure to visit her blog and welcome her and take a few minutes to enjoy a few of her recent posts!

Our wonderful hostess this month is Michelle Leone, Pretty Periwinkles, I loved her fabulous kit with awesome colors and many images, die cuts and papers that were gorgeous and so easy to design with as well! My cards just seemed to make themselves, a blessing with the hectic holiday activities that always seem to compete with my crafty time! Thanks for an awesome kit, Michelle!

All the best to Jessica and Michele and a big welcome to Marcia! To visit the 12 Kits blog and enjoy all the creations made with Periwinkle Party, click HERE! Enjoy the hop and don't forget to come back next year--same time and place!

The 12 Kits of Occasions: December with Tracey "It's Christmas"

We're just a tad bit late this month due to a problem with the Canadian mail service. This month's wonderful hostess, Tracey, In My Creative Opinion, lives in Canada and we were unable to get her kits at the usual time. But they were well worth the wait! I loved all the fabulous supplies she sent. See the wonderful photo below for a glimpse of all the goodies--adorable images, great die cuts and an amazing collection of patterned papers. I'm late completing all the Christmas cards that I plan to send so it was a blessing to receive a whole new supply of products. I had been looking at ordering the MFT dog set so was especially happy to be able to try those out. It's definitely on my wish list now!

I hope our posts give you some inspiration if you too are still working on holiday projects. HERE is the link to the 12 Kits of Occasions blog where you will find links to all of our designers as well as our guest designer. Joyce Mehrberg was one of the original 12 Kits members and is joining us this month. And Tracey has provided a list of her supplies. It is located at the top of the 12 Kits blog.
