Happy New Year's Eve! The girls at The 12 Kits of Occasions are starting the party early today with our final kit of 2018. Michelle is our hostess this month and she's delivered us an amazing kit full of prettiness and sparkle! Brace yourselves for what the team has created with her {Periwinkle Party} goodies!

This is a bittersweet post as we're saying goodbye to our sweet friends Michele and Jessica. Our little group is like a family, it pulls at our heartstrings when anyone leaves the team. We're going to miss them more than they know, but we understand that life is ever changing. We love you ladies and, of course, will continue to stalk your blogs!

Never fear though as today we're welcoming a new team member to our 12 Kits family, the fabulous Marcia Hill

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Let's get this party stared!


I added a polka dot embossed panel for a CAS look here.


An embossed panel (gifted to me from sweet Michele!) provided the perfect elegant backdrop for this one.


More dry embossing on this sentiment tag.


I couldn't resist adding more polka dots behind my PTI die cuts.


I suppose you can tell I enjoyed the sparkling gemstones from this kit. They made their way onto almost all of the cards!



And finally, how about a shaker to ring in the new year! 

Thanks so much for spending a bit of your day with me. I'm grateful for your visits. I wish each and every one of you a Happy New Year filled with many blessings!

What a FABULOUS group of cards Lisa! Wasn't this such a FUN kit to play with?! As soon as I saw the wonderful papers Michelle included in this kit I wondered what you and Marybeth would do with them as you both are so good at creating CAS out of anything, and you totally excelled my friend! Every one of your cards is a gem (quite literally speaking too!!) and I'm loving them all! Thanks so much for the kinds words of welcome too...I am so looking forward to working alongside you each month! Best wishes for a happy and joyful 2019 Lisa!! :0)

Wowza Lisa ~ All your cards are stunning! Michelle's kit was amazing and you've done her proud. Your signature polka dots always add a bit of texture and pure delight to the eye. The wreath card is fabulous and I'm so glad I still have that wreath and those flowers so I can do a quick CASE of that lovely. I hope 2019 bring you many more blessings my friend!

Lisa you have the most beautiful feminine style. Swooning over the last card filled with the gems.. what a show stopper. Pinning that for future inspiration here. And that little bow on the wreath with the embossed tag? Swoon! I think my favorite is flower on the embossed panel with the gold embossed sentiment. So clean but a total knock out!

These bright colors are not what I'm used to seeing from you, Lisa, but you've put them together beautifully - leaving them CAS so the vibrant images take center stage. Fantastic job!

You've really worked magic with Michelle's kit, Lisa! Every card is stunning!! The first three are so elegant and beautiful. Love your use of the colorful images with lots of white.
