"The best Christmas gifts came not from the gift received, but from those given."
I am back for another Spotlight Saturday as a guest designer for Artful Delight, where I get to showcase their December Card Kit! This time I created a card set and packaged them up in their own handmade glassine bag, tied up with some pretty orange twine found in the kit.
I really wanted to showcase the handmade embellishments included in this month's kit and what a better way to do that then with various one layer cards. Each card base is half of an 8.5x11 sheet of cardstock included in this kit. The sentiments all come from the Paper Smooches Stamp set, a perfect addition to this kit.
Let's take a look at the cards, shall we?
These two feature the beautiful layered butterfly focal pieces included in the kit:
Then we've two cards featuring the beautiful diecut flower with clay mold rose center:
And last but not least, the final two each feature a paper medallion from the kit. The first card showcases the yellow side of the medallion through a punched circle card front.
And then this one features the other side of the medallion along with some fun misting.
I love that Artful Delight's December Card Kit contents offer the flexibility of being able to create different designs but still have similar elements to make a nice card set.
And, the Artful Delight Sketch Challenge draws to a close on December 23rd. Don't forget to link up your project for a chance to win a free kit!
