All Occasion Card Kits - a colourful background, an embossed strip and a blingy tea pot

The final set of card kits for my friend.  These ones again are variety in theme and colours. 
For this one I added a little blingy teapot sticker to a green die cut and layered it with a dark brown scalloped circle (Nestibilities).  I added a full size background of decorative paper and then added an embossed strip of coordinating cardstock.  
I am sure she will enjoy putting together her cards and will make them her own as she does!!

All Occasion Card Kits - background with a coordinating embellished photo

This is the sample for the second set of cards for my friend.  Quick and easy!!  I added a decorative paper background to my deep red card and then added my embellished photo of  pussy willows with 3D foam tape!!  The photo is from a photo calendar my sister, Sylvia, gave me for Christmas.  She does such wonderful photography and it is so easy to reuse them in my cards!!  I trimmed the photo to size, trimmed top and bottom with scallop decorative scissors and then used a push pin to pierce each scallop.  Ran my pattern tracing wheel on all four sides to add yet more texture.  Again, these are all the same sketch but a variety of images and colours.

All Occasion Card Kits - a flag, embossed strip and a layered flower embellishment

I have been working on card kits for a friend who is an avid card maker!!!  
This set of eight has all sorts of embellishments and a variety of colours.  I made this one up for her so she would have a sample to go by though she is very creative and will no doubt do her own thing!!!
I started with a blue card and added a layer of decorative paper.  I cut the flag from a scrap of blue.  I created the floral embellishment using a variety of die cuts - some from my stash.  I layered them and then added a little star brad to the center to hold them together.  I auditioned both of these on my card front to make sure there was room for the flower and then glued them into place.  I used 3D foam tape on the flower.  I layered two pieces of  coordinating cardstock and embossed them before adding this element over the top of the flag.  There is still room to add a greeting and I have included a good variety which she can add as she wishes.   Therese
 

Thank you card featuring a beautiful pink flower and a few layers

This thank you card features a reused card front with a wonderful greeting and beautiful image.  I trimmed it to size and layered it with a rectangle of black cardstock and then added that to a pink card front!!!
I did run my pattern tracing wheel around the edges for a bit of texture before gluing it all together!!
