This evening I have a card made using the February card kit from The Stamps of Life. I'm not a kit person (usually) but I have made an exception here.
I have the coordinating stamp and die sets from their Die Hard Club, so when the kit came out with additional stamps and dies, plus paper and embellishments I couldn't resist. It seems dragonflies are everywhere recently, but I find these ones particularly cute.TSOL kits come with an idea card, but they are not the "this kit makes these 12 cards" type of kit. More of a "here's what you could do" kit. No card bases, no instructions - just coordinating products, cardstock and some ideas. This card kit has made me a fan of kits!
The colors were so close to the colors for this week's Splitcoaststampers challenge colors I decided to use the kit and my dies. No coloring here - I cut the dragonflies from the patterned paper.
The most time consuming part was deciding on the design. I used two of their slimline dies for my layout.
This will be going to a close friend who also makes cards. But she has limited space and time, and will NOT color a card - she hates it. Everything is die cut or punched out with the occasional sentiment stamped. Her birthday is later this month and I know she will appreciate this card!
