oh so dandy...

The May kit over at Jenni Bowlin is a beautiful mix of oranges and yellows, grays and blues, so elegant and colorful at the same time! I always love the embellishments she manages to find, it's always fun to try something new and the mix is so eclectic and fun! I made a few cards with the main kit so far...

On this first card, I used one of the journaling cards folded in half for my base. (There were 2 smaller ones with a perforation in the center, so I just folded it to make the card base.) Added some Pink Paislee die cuts with pop dots. Everything here is from the main kit, except the saying, which I stamped with a Papertrey Ink stamp from their Sending You set, and the postmark that I stamped with their Postmarks set!

The Studio Calico stickers were beautiful, I am so into yellow right now. I grabbed one of them and made a "ribbon" with it and used the metal circle for the top of the ribbon...

"Congratulations" is stamped with Papertrey Ink's Mat Stack 2 Collection stamp set. I used some little pins from my stash to pop up some punched stars. (You could add a little earring back on the pins if you didn't want them to poke the recipient!) I like the flair that the stars add!

On the last card, I used a vellum envelope from the kit and added a piece of gray patterned paper inside and another Studio Calico sticker on the front stamped with a stamp from Papertrey Ink's Birthday Basics set.

The cute little clear butterflies were in the kit and they had a small hole in them, so I put some sewing pins through them and tucked the pins under the sticker. Love the citrus colors on this one!

You can find the May kits here!
