Good morning everyone ~ It's my turn to host over at the 12 Kits of Occasion blog this month and I chose a theme that's near and dear to my heart since I was a little girl..... Fairy Tales. My kit was a little different this month because it was loaded with adorable, magical images to color (another past time that I always loved to do as a child and I still enjoy today).
Thanks Lindsey for taking the photo's that always make our kits look fabulous every month!
I also have a guest designer with me this month. Kara from Bright Hope Creations, whom I met on my trip to Kansas. She's the sweetest person to get to know and incredibly gifted in every way so please be sure to pop by her blog and give her some love.
Now on to the cards I made using this month's kit:

Now on to the cards I made using this month's kit:
This little cutie is Tiny Towny Fairy Garden Fairy from Stampingbella. She is as sweet as can be and I love the sentiment that comes with her.
This lovely fairy is also from Stampingbella, meet Edna the Everything Fairy. As I was trying to think of what I was going to do with her, I remembered I had this funny sentiment stamp from Rubbernecker Stamps. They have a great line of witty stamps.
I used the sentiment from the kit for the inside of the card.
This little mermaid from Honey Bee Stamps Swimming By couldn not be overlooked when putting together this kit. I added sequins to her fishy body, Glossy Accents to the turtle and lots of Wink of Stella.
The mushroom dies from The Scrapping Cottage are among my favorite dies. They look good in any color and can be used for so many different occasions! The log house from The Scrapping Cottage makes the perfect home for Poppy Stamps Magnificent Mini Faeries.
These gnomes are also from The Scrapping Cottage.
I couldn't wait to try coloring the princess carriage from Spellbinders Pretty Princess like a pumpkin. So cute!
MFT's Magical Dragons made an appearance in this kit. I've wanted these little guys for a long time and finally broke down and ordered them. They're so fun to color and give life to.
I turned this card into a shaker card.
I added some puffy stitched clouds and a sparkly star shaped birthday balloon from Elizabeth Craft Designs.
Thanks for sticking with me. I know it was a long post. I do hope you'll stop by the 12 Kits of Occasion blog to see how my talented teamies used this kit. You can find the complete list of products I used to create this kit on their blog as well.
Thanks for stopping by!

Birgit, thank you so very much for bringing out the inner-child in each of us this month! Your cards are so wonderful, and wonder-filled! LOve the dragons the very 'mostest' and may have to run by to borrow them again! for you know what! xx

First off... I ADORED this kit! Every sweet piece of fairy fun laid out on my worktable for the longest time before I could bear to assemble. I wanted to save everything! And then my granddaughter broke her arm, and every card seem to make itself! She was in need of grandma's magic and one by one the cards came to life (honestly!) I'm so glad I saved a few things, to case you all. And the dragons, oh my, love them! Your coloring is wonderful on both of your dragon cards. The sweet flying guy blowing out the bd candles is pure charm! Love how you colored the pumpkin carriage. It's wonderful! Seriously in awe with each and every piece of jolly magic you made!
Wow....so many amazing and wonderful cards! I love your sweet magical kit and so excited to see everyone's gorgeous creations! Love all your sweet fairies and that mermaid covered in those fabulous sequins! And your sweet dragons, so much fun! Your sweet castle card makes me want to head to Disneyland! Each one of your cards is a masterpiece! Thank you again for the amazing kit.
Oh Birgit...what a truly magical and FABULOUS kit you put together!! Your little Stampingbella fairy is so darn cute and just beautifully colored too I might add! (could I PLEASE have one or 2 to color?? And maybe a few dragons too??) And I'm still hoarding those delightful little mushrooms you sent me awhile back...just LOVE them!! Your buxom beauty is such a hoot and LOVE the sentiment too! She is also FABULOUSLY colored!! And your sweet, sweet mermaid with the sequined tail...SO PRETTY!! Your little gnome cards are so special too and those dragons...oh my, they are AMAZING and also just beautifully colored! You are SO talented my friend, and you truly put together one FABULOUS kit...I am totally enjoying everyone's posts this morning!! :0)
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! for letting me play along with you this month with your amazing kit, Birgit! I had a fantastic time and I couldn't wait to see what everyone else made with it! Your cards are truly "magical" each and every one! Your coloring is gorgeous - that pumpkin carriage for one, and your shading to define noses, and just the overall details! I love your creativity with things like the mermaid tail sequin scales and the cloud-cut sentiment! Your cards are all incredible and inspiring! Thanks so much for your kind introduction - the feeling is mutual my dear friend!
Oh my goodness! SO many things I love here! What an amazing kit you put together for us! I love all the sparkle and shine you added.. the sequin scales on the mermaid (swoon!) the balloon for the dragon (brilliant) and your coloring is out of this world! Thanks so much for this magical kit! I still have loads more to play with!
love the dragon blowing out the cake candles... very fun!
What a wonderful magical kit that you created, Birgit. And your cards are all fabulous.
You always do a wonderful job with these cards, all so different from the other. the first is so cute, like it with the mushrooms, the second so fun, love the sequins on the mermaid. The cute log house with the fairy. Both dragons are just too cute!
Oh, Birgit, I absolutely LOVED your kit! This was such a fun, playful theme. Every one of your cards looks fantastic and I'm in awe of your coloring--everything is so beautifully done! The Stamping Bella fairies are adorable and how cute to see Edna with her fat-free cupcake! The little woodland images were especially dear to me. My arched leafy die is from Hero Arts, the first Monthly Kit I bought but unfortunately they don't sell them later. I'll be happy to send you some though. Interestingly it came with a fairy set. I too loved the dragons and what wonderful coloring on yours. That big glittery balloon is just amazing!! As is the perfectly adorned mermaid--adding sequins in her tail is genius! Thanks for a truly awesome month!!
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed you magical kit! Every little element fit your theme perfectly. You've got some mad coloring skills, just look at the definition on the dragons and faces. And that pumpkin carriage...swoon! Love that you filled the mermaid's tail with sequins, what a clever idea.Thank you so much for your enchanting kit!
Birgit, this kit is amazing...you did a wonderful job pulling it all together and giving everyone magical pieces to create with. I loved every single one of your cards, they are all fantastic...and boy did you hit the ball out of the park with your guest! What a gift she is!! thanks for all the fun inspiration! Heart Hugs, Col
