Hiya! It's the 1st Sunday of the month, which means it's time for a Kit-Cat post! If you are a new reader to my blog, that basically means a group of us friends that met on SCS take turns sending identical card kits with 1 stamped image and designer papers and a few embellishments and we all have to create a card with it! Fun, Fun, FUN! We call ourselves the Kit-tens due to, hee hee, the kit! This month, our hostess was the uber sweet and joyous Susan! I absolutely loved every ounce of her kit, so much so I used everything but the ribbon and buttons ... and that was only because my Aileens was supah dry from one of my kiddies leaving the lid off! :)
I decided to use another fun fold - I have been so stuck in a rut with my card making. I enjoy a challenge and going outside my comfort zone to see what is new and innovative and something I may want to try again - some maybe not! *wink!* I love the vibrant colors to the papers she sent which match the theme of her image - SU's Time for You bicycle! Such sweet memories I have of biking as a kid - even in Europe, my brother and I would take off on our bikes down the old European cobblestone streets and roam through the towns or castle ruins. I have a harder time now - we live in a busy suburb where cars and missing sidewalks and busy intersections and shopping centers make it a little harder :) But I love to ride my bike still and loved going down memory lane while creating. Thank you, Susan!
Would you like to see what the other *kittens* have made with this stamped image and papers? Here they are!
Susan * Jeanette * Lorie * Michelle
Next month, its' my turn to hostess! I already have my idea and most of the kit ingredients, so stayed tuned next month and see what surprises awaits the other kittens! :)
Muah!
Blessings to you!

ReplyDeleteSuch a cute card from a fun kit!! I like the fold idea. Might just add it to my never ending list of new things to try! =)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute and colorful card and love the fold.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, Kelly... your card is wonderful!!! I love the unique fold (I'm going to have to remember that one!) Funny thing is, I almost put the bike inside my card, too... but changed my mind and then regretted that decision. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI love how you used almost everything in Susan's delightful kit! You are an inspiration to me!!!
Hugs and Purrs!!!
OMGoodness! This is just cute, clever, gorgeous, and everything in between! Love it.

ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you have in store for us next month :)
What a fun card! I'm so into fancy fold cards lately... just can't a straight A-2 size card LOL! Love your bright colors and the paper is just plain yummy! Enjoy your Sunday GF!
ReplyDeleteThis is a fantastic fancy fold! Love the images and colors!
ReplyDeleteGreat card, so bright and fun! Love the fun fold, I know what you mean about being in a rut, but this one is not boring at all, well none of you cards are, just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card! I love the fun fold you've used. I've not seen that before. Great job!
ReplyDeleteFabulous! Have I told you lately how talented I think you are?
ReplyDeletefabulous!!! great designs...
ReplyDeleteThis is very bright colors combination.
The first one looking beautiful.
Thanks for this great blog.
The fold is just great! I love the colors and how you chose to lay out the card.
ReplyDeleteOh my stars, Kelly, this is gorgeous! This totally fun & carefree card is a feast for the eyes inside & out! Your use of the papers on this fun-fold card is amazing, and what a wonderful surprise to find the sweetly colored image on the inside! I am humbled that you created this yummy card from my little old kit! I can't wait to see what you've got in store for us! {hugs & purrs}
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card. Love this fun fold and your choice of colors is awesome. Totally creative!
ReplyDeleteGreat card! I love the bold, cheery colors.
ReplyDeleteYour card is so pretty; the colors remind me of summer! Thanks so much for joining us for the House of Gilli challenge. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the funky folds of your card and the bright colors, it is the type of card to make anyone smile
ReplyDeleteI LOVE IT!! I know what you mean about being stuck with one standard fold (which for the record, I hardly think applies to you because you always have SO MANY different ideas posted here). This fold is AWESOME and does a fabbie job of highlighting the sweet image that Susan sent. Wonderful use of all the elements, as always! HUGS
ReplyDeleteLooks like another fun kit and fabulous KitCat card -- I love seeing what you make with these each month! The papers are so cheerful, and what a great way to fold the card. The darling image is like a sweet surprise on the inside. :-)
ReplyDeleteOooohh! That is a fun fold! Of course you had my attention with all of that pretty pink! Yup, it's a "Classic Kelly Card"...so happy! Such a fun image, too! :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Great colors and nice card design!
