But anyway. Over the weekend I put together the Lots of Happy card kit and then gave it to someone as a gift. I made 20 cards total, 4 each of 5 designs, plus a card for the recipient; today I'm sharing the first two cards that were made pretty much like the sample pictures.
At first I wasn't really planning to use the vellum leaves because...I don't know, I guess I just don't "get" them? But I did use them and I think the cards turned out pretty cute. The kit comes with four watercolor pencils, but the Rich Razzleberry one turns out looking like a slightly purplish pink rather than actually being purple. Oh well.
Those were the two A2 size card designs that came with the kit; it came with three smaller ones but those you couldn't send through the mail so I took the pieces and made them into regular size cards (which I'll share later). This kit has some very pretty pieces but it was rather labor-intensive with all the coloring. Still, the recipient liked it and that's what matters!
Cheers, y'all!

Very, very pretty, Kik! I like them. I do like the boldness of the black and white stripes on the first one. They are very nice. I do like the vellum. Cute idea.
These are pretty! I agree...a recent Paper Pumpkin kit had a lot of vellum flowers and leaves and I didn't love that part.
I will actually cry when naps are over...!
