I am in a card kit swap group (led by Barb). Each month one of the members receives card kits from each of the other members, for a total of 11 card kits. Then we have a couple of months in which to make cards with the kits we receive. This is not my first year, so if you're a regular visitor on my blog you're most likely familiar with this group.
I received kits in June so now it's time to create. I normally make one card per kit, but this year I'm hoping I can make two with each kit. My limitations are my own time, not the kits themselves because these ladies put together some fabulous kits.
Today's cards were made with Emily's kit, which had a beautiful assortment of papers, lovely peony images, an embellishments, too.
Here's what was in Emily's kit...
Image: CTMH Budding Peony stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink
DP: Craftsmith Ooh La La (foil paper, too) and Carta Bella Botanical Garden
Fibers: SU Garden Green Stripe and Sugar Plum Glitter, American Crafts Antique White, and CTMH Gray with Gold
Embellishments: CTMH Sugarplum Glitter Gems, CTMH Sequins, Petal Do Darjeeling Flowers
CS: SU Very Vanilla and Mint Macaroon and PTI Smokey Shadow
Thank you Emily! I hope you (and the other ladies) like my cards.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
The only thing I used to make my cards other than what was in Emily's kit was some Recollections Black CS. The dies I used were My Favorite Things Stitched Mod Rectangle.
I love these stunning peonies, Jeanette! What beautiful cards!
