Are you a fan of kits? I absolutely am. And this time I took the elements of the new So Much To Celebrate Kits Collection Kit, added a few extra supplies, and came up with a way to triple the amount of cards you can make from the kit. I love doing this! You get so much more for your money when you can stretch your supplies. And then you have even more greeting cards to give out individually, in gift sets, or in large donation amounts to organizations and facilities in need.

The cards you will see in this post are one third of what you can make from one kit. I took the supplies from each of the three styles of cards/envelopes and turned them into nine. But from one whole kit you can create 27. Yay! For tips, watch the last portion of my 2/12/25 class (starting around the 46:30 minute mark…

Then check on the photos below. I added in Balmy Blue Cardstock, some extra sentiments (with Balmy Blue ink and the Friends For Life stamp set), and some accent strips that I cut from my Gold Foil.

Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

If you need more direction and information, again be sure to watch the last portion of my 2/12/25 class (starting around the 46:30 minute mark) for more details on putting these cards together. I would’ve done a separate video for these, but I’m taking today and tomorrow to spend time with my parents who will be in town. It’s a weekend with the family! We are celebrating my youngest son Luke’s and my sister’s birthdays. Luke turned 18 on the 7th. I can’t believe it. Time flies too quickly.

Enjoy your Valentine’s Day weekend!
