Hello and welcome. As you may know, The 12 Kits of Occasions lost a member of the design team recently. Sharron Gregory passed away peacefully at home on March 30th. Design team members, past and present, are joining together today for a blog hop in honor of our sweet friend.
Upon visiting the 12 Kits blog, you'll find a friendship card from each of the designers. When you follow the link to their personal blog, you'll find their card and a memory shared about Sharron.
My memory of Sharron comes from the 4th birthday card I had made for my granddaughter and shared on my blog. I mentioned we would be giving her a Calico Critters doll house, car and Sweet Pea bunny family. Sharron commented that she used to buy her granddaughter Calico Critters and so enjoyed shopping for her and all of the cute characters. From then on, every time I looked into the teepee at those toys, I thought of Sharron.
When my little Sweet P plays with her set (it's at our house) she has a mommy, daddy, gramma, papa and Sweet P bunny. There's one extra bunny and she always asks me who it should be. It's usually a pre-school friend or someone we know. When this pandemic is over and Sweet P can come to gramma's house again, I think that bunny will have a new and permanent name... Sharron ♥

What a beautiful post and card in memory of Sharron! I didn't know that Sharron loved buying the Calico Critters for her granddaughter...you got me hooked and now I buy them for every birthday and Christmas for my sweet Addy and she absolutely LOVES them!! And so sweet that you're going to name the extra bunny Sharron...what a great way to keep her memory alive! And Sharron would have loved this card with the sweet little birdies too...lovely, lovely card! Sending many hugs your way today dear friend!!
That is such a wonderful idea, Lisa! It brought tears to my eyes knowing that you are going to name the sweet bunny after sweet Sharron. And your card honors her completely as we all come together to sing her many praises! She would love the whole design with the darling songbirds. Sharron's words of encouragement and her friendship will be missed by me and so many others who were blessed to know her. Take care and be safe! Hugs, Darnell

Lisa a beautiful card in honour of Sharron, but your story about Sweet P and the Callico Critters and how the extra character will be named Sharron made me a bit teary eyed. Sharron would have loved this card!
This is so pretty!! I love the coloring and the sentiment is just so sweet-perfect for this tribute. Thank you for sharing your story about Sharron. Such a lovely memory.

Such beautiful warm thoughts for a lovely soul, Lisa ... your card is just the sweetest ... and how wonderful to name the extra bunny after Sharron. Hugs, Anita :)
Aw, what a sweet tribute to your friend, Lisa. And the card is beautiful, happy and light. The embossed stitching in the background reminds me of the musical notes, wafting high in to the air.
Sorry I'm so late getting here--not that I don't think of you, Lisa. What a wonderful post with your Sharron story & how sweet to name the extra bunny in her honor. Hope it isn't too long until you get to have Sweet P at your house again! The card you made is adorable & I love your coloring, as always!
This may be my new favorite from you!! Everything about this card makes me smile from ear to ear! I had a storybook with little birdies when I was growing up, and this card is giving me major nostalgia - it's absolutely sweet as can be!
