The cards I’m sharing today are peeks at the alternates that I created with one set of card supplies from the popular Hello Hollyhocks Kits Collection Kit. This kit contains supplies for 3 sets of 3 cards. So for my October 26th Kit Together event (held just a few hours ago) I mailed each participant 1/3 of this kit. And from that we created six unique and pretty cards which I’m sharing throughout this post.
Event attendees joined together virtually on Zoom for 2 hours of fun and creativity. I demonstrated step-by-step how to make these six cards using those materials they each received from me. But we also took time to socialize, laugh & have fun, and work on our own kits or other projects. It was like a mini retreat. Oh!…And there were prize drawings at the end. It was a super fun event!
Not everyone that registered could attend the Live Zoom gathering today. But a perk to registering is access to a recording of the demonstration AND to the instructional PDF.
The instructions, tips, and measurements are exclusive for those that took part in the event. But I at least wanted to share these peek photos of the cards I demonstrated to give you a little creative inspiration today AND to entice you to sign up for a future kit together. It’s well worth it… exclusive make-n-takes and instruction, prizes, ordering specials, time set aside to craft with others and work on your own kits, and just plain fun!
Because we made six cards from the supplies of three, we had to add in a bit of extra cardstock, envelopes and embellishments. AND we had to add sentiment imagery from an outside set. Again, I’m not sharing that supply list, but I will share that the extra stamp set I recommended (and used in my samples) is Wonderful Thoughts. It’s a great set with lots of varied word images and one that I use quite often.
Want to see more ideas with this kit? Visit my 8/14/24 post: Card Candy Creations & New Product Peeks! to see what fellow team members Brenda Georgi, Candace Johnson, Nancy Forsberg, and Nancy McKenzie created.
I’m excited to host another Kit Together and am looking at the weekend of February 22nd/23rd. If you’d like to take part, make sure that you are subscribed to my newsletters so you will be the first to get notices. (Both my April 2024 class and this October 2024 class filled up within just a few days of registration opening. I didn’t even have time to advertise it on my blog.)
Though this post didn’t share the details of these cards, I hope you got some creative inspiration AND will consider signing up for one of my future Kit Togethers. Thanks for stopping by!
