12 Kits of Occasion ~ May

Well, here we are again at the end of another month and that means it's time for the 12 Kits of Occasion gals to post their beautiful creations using this months super adorable kit from Nancy Penir of Artful Notions.  

I had the wonderful opportunity of meeting Nancy this past March when a group of us went to the Craft House in Newton, Kansas and Nancy is a true gem at heart and incredibly talented.  All of her cards are little pieces of art and her kit this month was a tribute to her country loving heart and her "girls" titled "You're A Good Egg".







  Thank you Nancy, for such a fun-filled kit!  I had so much fun playing with all the darling images and sweet papers.

Nancy has two guest designers that are both near and dear to my heart this month so I hope you'll visit the 12 Kits of Occasion blog to see how the other gals were inspired by Nancy's fun kit.    

Thanks for stopping by!

You've embraced the nostalgic, whimsical nature of Nancy's Kit perfectly, Birgit! I'm spying a bit of your sense of humor in those stacked Chickens, and each little character is colored so beautifully. What a fun group of cards!
