18 cards from the Love from Lizi July kit!

One of the things I LOVE about the LFL kits (#lovefromlizi, lovefromlizi.com) is how much coordinated material is included!  Each kit has enough cardstock to make 10 card bases, but I usually supplement with some of my 8.5x11 paper.  This month I got the add-ons (cardstock cut-out stickers) which really increased the possibilities.



This was my first set. I went for the big "rose window" print right away, and the delicate flower print on the gray panel too.  Love the surprising color combinations!


My favorites here are the ones on the left.  On the lower right, I tried stamping with the Distress Oxide ink but it wasn't as visible as I hoped.........tried to fix it up with a white gel pen shadow. 


I had so much fun making these cards and challenging myself to come up with 18 different designs!  Thank you, Lizi of #lovefromlizi!

Yet one more from the LFL (#lovefromlizi, lovefromlizi.com) July card kit!  I used the cute flower stamps to stamp in Versamark on an MFT grout gray panel, then embossed in clear embossing powder.  The tiny black gems, sentiment sticker and black-and-white paper baker's twine are all from the LFL kit.  Tone-on-tone background is one of my "go-to designs" when I'm trying to come up with ten cards from one kit!

Lately I've had a lot of graduation cards to make & send!  Today's card is from Sunny Studio Stamps' "Woo Hoo" graduation set!  I love the tone ontone look of the background, and "Woo Hoo" is one of my favorite cheers, so it's a natural for me!  A little glossy accents on the glasses makes them look so cute, too.  I've done a few of these adding eyelashes for the gals.  #sunnystudiostamps

Another card from the Love from Lizi July kit (lovefromlizi.com, #lovefromlizi).  All items from the kit, with the chipboard sticker which was an add-on to the kit.  If you haven't tried her kits, she puts together amazing paper and embellishment combinations!  I would never have tried this color combo on my own but I just love it.  Thanks, Lizi!

Love From Lizi July kit


Finally got the time to spend a nice day in my craft room, and devoted the time to catching up on my July Love from Lizi kit!  I just loved the papers in this kit - this is clearly a super simple card but the papers just do it for me.  I made 18 cards out of just one kit plus a couple of add-on items, and have tons of materials left over!  #lovefromlizi

Color Throwdown Challenge #450



Wow, it's been too crazy lately!  Trying to get back on the crafting wagon, which is my happy time!

For this week's Color Throwdown Challenge (#ctd450 #colorthrowdown), I used the Love from Lizi June kit (#lovefromlizi) to create a plain & simple shaker card.  Everything here came in the kit!  I cut the vellum star down to a circle as the focal point.  Love her kits - she's in the UK but ships quite reasonably to the US.

Thanks for looking!  Lisa
