It's time for another edition of The 12 Kits of Occasions and this month the amazing Kara is our hostess! As you can see in the photo above, she sent us a gorgeous and elegant kit for autumn & Thanksgiving!
She sent us 3 sizes of glassine bags and these adorable place cards made with Papertrey Ink's "Places Please" stamp and die set. I decided to make a favor for a Thanksgiving table. Inside are some smoked almonds. These would look so pretty at each place setting! I used a sentiment from one of my own PTI sets "First Fruits" stamped in Delicata gold ink to match the lovely leaves Kara sent. These would look so great printed with guests' names, though!
Next is an image from PTI's "Autumn Abundance" colored with Copics and glittered up a bit...
Used one of my Sizzix embossing folders with some Dark Chocolate cardstock. Liked how the leafy pattern coordinated with the vase image.
More Copic coloring on PTI's "Autumn Hills" scene!
Colored it to match a panel that Kara sent that was stamped with PTI's "Leaf Prints." SUCH beautiful colors she chose!
And last a CAS card that made me think of Kara herself! A die cut "Thankful" mixed with some beautiful vellum leaves. I absolutely LOVE this woodgrain paper she sent and will be ordering some!
It was very hard to photograph, but the leaves were scored down the center and folded a bit for dimension. I wanted them to look like they were floating.
There you have it! I have so many things left, so I must come back with more cards to showcase Kara's kit. She is hosting a prize giveaway this month!
