The 12 Kits of Occasions - February '14 Kit

Hello!  Renee here and since I was the lucky hostess this month...I'm popping in to share a little about it!  I fell in LOVE (and I do mean deep and complete love) the moment I saw Crate Paper's Bundled Up last summer and knew I would be using it in this month's kit...which the theme for this month is "Snowblind"...anything snow related...so it was perfect!  

And though I swear we did not coordinate ideas...when I started working on my kit back during the early winter...I had already started an extra kit figuring I would offer it up for a prize but then Sharron was smart enough to offer up a kit early for last month and have the winner also be a guest designer...so I followed suit for this month and our wonderful guest is Judy from Judy'sCardCorner so make sure you drop by and show her some love!

You can get a listing of all the supplies in the kit from the above tab...but it may take me a bit to remember everything I put in there. *giggle*  We'll just say I had a lot of fun putting this kit together!

Hope you enjoy!

The 12 Kits of Occasions - January '14 Kit

Hi, Sharron here--welcome to the first 12 Kits Reveal for 2014! I am the lucky one who got to put together the kit this month. And to get everyone ready for Valentine's Day, the theme is Valentines or Anything Loved. I found some fabulous papers by Teresa Collins called You Are My Happy with fun colors and added some wonderful stamps and dies from some of my favorite companies. Hope you enjoy them!

Also this month, I wanted to try something different and held a little contest to chose a Guest Designer. The winner was Michelle, Pretty Periwinkles! I loved the chance to share a kit with her. Below is one of her cards and a link to her blog. I'm already in love with this CAS design and can't wait to see what else she has done. Be sure to pay a visit to her blog and leave her a little love.

A Winner!

Good morning everyone!
Popping in really quickly with a winner for February's kit and I know a lot of people use Random.org for drawing winner's but since I happen to have the ultimate random number generator of ALL number generator's available at my disposal pretty much 24/7...
I used him.
Here's how it all went down...

Me:  Dinky, pick a number between 1-47!
Dinky:  55.
Me:  Really?!!

How much more random does it get than that? *giggle*
He really is a smart kid...
but I guess hitting him up with questions too soon after waking up is just more than he could handle this morning so we went back and reviewed the question...
and this time he went simple...
#30!

I came by way of Tracey, too...and I'm glad I did! I think my favorite outdoor winter activity is shoveling snow -- I know, sounds crazy, but I love the solitude and peace and quiet and the exercise, too! My favorite indoor winter activity is cleaning out and reorganizing after the holidays!

Congratulations!!! And Judy if you will shoot me all your info in an email to rlynch6@bellsouth.net with WINNER in the subject line...
I'm planning on kits hitting the PO on Wednesday!

And don't forget we will be posting our January reveal using Sharron's incredible kit this Friday morning the 31st and Michelle from Pretty Periwinkles will be joining us as our special guest this month...
hope you'll stop by for a little "lovin' inspiration"! *giggle*
See you then!

Want To Win A Kit?

Hello, Hello!
Renee here and since I am hostessing for February and am busy getting kits packaged and ready to hit the Post Office the last week of the month...
and though we honestly did not collaborate on the idea Sharron and I both thought of offering a kit for giveaway...
she's just way quicker than I am and also thought of having the winner guest with us too...
so I'm borrowing that idea and offering up another chance to be a guestie here with all of us in February!
The little graphic above should give you a clue as to the theme...
Snowblind...
and if you would like to win your own kit and be our honored guest here on 12 Kits...
just leave a comment below telling us your favorite winter activity (if I could get away with it mine would be hibernating till spring because I don't like the cold so I guess instead my favorite activity would actually be complaining about the cold! *giggle*) before Saturday, January 25th at 11:59 CT and I'll announce the winner here on the 12 Kits blog Sunday January 26th!
Good luck and can't wait to see who's going to be joining us next month!

Winner Winner!!

So when I went in my craft room today I saw the PS Christmas words dies sitting on my desk and I remembered I never came back to tell the winner!!! So....drumroll, please....

 

 

The winner is from Joyce's blog:

Michelle said...

Wow..... I'd love to be a 12 Kits guest designer for January 2014! I follow the DT each month and am always amazed at the lovely projects!
Our V-day ritual usually includes cards, flowers (hopefully!) and maybe a bit of chocolate!

CONGRATULATIONS, MICHELLE
We are all so excited to have you as part of the team for next month. 
Looking forward to seeing your wonderful creations. We know you will do a fabulous job!
Just email your mailing address to me at deuxpapillons@cox.net. 
I will be sending out kits within the next few days.

And thanks to everyone who entered. It was fun to read all your comments and find out about everyone's Valentine plans. We really appreciate your support and love that you take time to visit our blog each month.

Want to Be a 12 Kits Guest Designer?

Would you like to receive one of our 12 Kits of Occasions kits in the mail next month? Here's your chance to join with our group and be a Guest Designer. We all love getting our "happy mail"! It's even more fun than getting something you have ordered because it is a total surprise. We don't even post a list of supplies until everyone has their kit in hand.

The theme is "I Think I Love You" and it can be anything love related. I tried to pick things that could be for anyone---from a note for one of the kids to a card for hubby or note to a special friend. Do you do something special for Valentine's Day? Leave a comment and let us know. The contest will run until December 29 at noon. The winner will be announced on December 30 when we post our December reveal.

Good luck! We would love to see what you would do with your very own kit!

Sharron
