Simon's October CardKit!!

SSS_cardkit_oct13_final

I think this may be my favorite CardKit that I've received this year,  simply because it's fall-themed, and I am sadly in need of updated autumn stamps and elements.  Here's the card I made the day I received my kit:


Love, love, LOVE the Lawn Fawn Into the Woods papers that are in this kit, and the sweet little tree stamp and lots of accompanying stamps to decorate it with!  So I stamped the tree and the multi-leaves,  then went back in with the single leaf stamp and added more colors to the leaves, using the paper that I included on my card as a guide: 2 blues, green, orange,and barn red distress inks.  The sequins, also from Lawn Fawn are just too cute not to use, so they were added after I put the rest of my card together.  

Here's a simple second card, using the striped paper, Kelly's alphabet stickers, and the chipboard heart and twine included in the kit:


Don't wait to order this CardKit - I guarantee you'll be kicking yourself when it sells out, as I know it will!

  1. So beautiful, Lin! There is just a tiny, tiny touch of fall here in the south - as I progress into the "fall" of my life - it has become my favorite time of the year. I kept seeing the CardKits so I decided I would try it and I loved my September kit. Looking forward to my October arriving after I have seen your inspiration. Have a blessed day!
