12 Kits of Occasion ~ March

Happy day everyone!  It's the end of March so that means it's time to share the cards that I made using the 12 Kits of occasion.  This month our hostess was Lisa Elton and she put together a warm, spring filled kit to help get us all in spring mode.  Her kit is called "A Whimsical Garden" was such a delight and certainly lifted my spirits up, especially since as I'm typing this we got more snow throughout the night.   As I'm sitting here typing, I'm hoping that by the time this post goes live, the snow will be gone, the flowers will be budding and I'll be watching the grass turn green.  A girl can hope!  

 Let's start with this cutie patootie card!  Lisa sent two of these topiary bunny images in the kit.  I'm so in love with them and if you are too, you can find a complete list of supplies on the 12 Kits of Occasion blog.

 Aren't they sweeeeet?????  The beautiful papers Lisa included in the kit were so lovely and just perfect for these cheerful little fella's.    Life IS beautiful, especially when you can drive around in your topiary VW bug with the top down!  

Lisa's kit had lots of cute bunnies and for some reason this card took a bit of a vintage turn with lightly distressed edges.   

 Another one of those fluffy bunnies made an appearance on this card. 

I've decided that I NEED a pair of these flowery wellies.  The Stitched Rain Boots are from Memory Box .  They paired perfectly with this fun sentiment that was in the kit.  

 And finally, my wish for you is that you're as happy as this froggie standing in the rain.

Be sure to visit the 12 Kits of Occasion blog to see how my talented teamies were inspired by Lisa's adorable kit and be especially sure to visit Lisa's personal blog for your chance to win this month's kit.  She's giving away not just one, but two kits!!!   Thanks Lisa for a darling kit!!!   

Thanks for stopping by!

Birgit all coloured so lovely and what a delightful group of 6 cards you created! I can't pick favourites but I can say that I love the way you coloured the bunny in the VW and the bunnies lounging in the garden. You added so many additional die cuts along with pairing all the papers so perfectly! I really love that last card with the froggie and the pink flower--so sweet! Well done as always my friend!

You should see me here, scrolling up and down, and up again looking at every little detail of your cards, Birgit! I am loving everything you put together with this kit! Gorgeous coloring on your bunnies and flowers! I love your stripe and polka dot bg combo on your first card, along with that carrot that works perfectly with the image! The sentiment and design paper banners look amazing with the VW. Those bunnies are so sweet nestled in the wreaths and flowers, and those floral rain boots are too cha cha for words! Last, but not least, that bright flower paired with the happy frog is a fabulous combination! It was snowing here yesterday so I am enjoying the kit reveal immensely!

Brigit, I LOVE each card! The bunny on the scalloped diamond is darling and the die cut rain boots for the rain card is perfect! What a cute thank you card with the bunny an wreath!
I hope you have sun by now as well.... We got pretty warm for the first time in a long while.

So cute...love all your wonderful creations and your coloring is just over the top fabulous! Love your sweet bunny driving in the topiary card, love that gorgeous green and vibrant blue sky. Your bunny wreath is as sweet as it gets! So many fabulous cards.

FABulous cards Birgit! I see what you mean about the VW bunny card! Love the way you've colored the topiary umbrella and tucked the little bunny in with the layered wreaths and bow. Thanks for making my kit shine!

Goodness, there are so many fantastic details, Birgit. You did an amazing job with Lisa's kit! And wasn't it fun! Your perfectly colored topiary designs are wonderful. And how cute are those carrots! I also loved the little tags on the second one and your beautiful layering on the vintage design. Adore the wellies with the cool pattern too! Putting froggie at center stage was an awesome idea. And I love the pink polka dot bloom with that sentiment!

Amazing selection of cards as always, beautifully coloured!

Super cute cards Birgit! I love how you colored the topiaries - you really brought them to life! The bunnies with the florals are gorgeous and I love all the little details.. like the scallop border and yummy layers!

I can't believe I missed this post, bloglovin is not doing a good job with my email updates. These are so fun, I love the topiary bunnies so cute and fun, love the carrots with it in the first and the pretty flower paper and banners in the corner for your second is so lovely. Of course I love anything vintage so the second is so pretty with how you layered it all. Pretty shading on the next one and I like how you tucked him in the flowers. Those wellies are too cute and who wouldn't want them with flowers, love the scalloped border showing off the row of boots! The frog is too cute and fun enjoying those spring showers!
