The first one I used pretty much as is except I cut the card blank in half to use as a mat to make the card slightly larger -pearls were included I just added a foiled butterfly from my stash and stamped a sentiment on the plaque and added on 3-D foam pads.
The second card I added some black cardstock for matting and layering/another butterfly/fabric flower and button from stash,the rest was provided in the kit,I coloured the foliage and berries with promarkers,centered and added on 3-D foam pads.
The third card was shaped and I decided to make an easel card-well I didn't really think this through or I would have scanned the stamped background for the lower part too so added some pink cardstock to the base.I added the pink gems and another foiled butterfly-the rest was included in the kit.

What a nice gift to receive, Carol. I love what you have done with each kit, but then, I always enjoy your eclectic style and multiple techniques. Really gorgeous creations. My favorite is the stripe card with the orange and green elements! Happy 2020, Carol! hugs, de
A lovely trio of cards Carol. All very different and very creative.

Three beautiful cards Carol adding your own elements has enhanced the kits allowing you to create unique designs
Wow such beautiful cards as always thanks for sharing. Happy New Year!!!
Loved what you made here. I have used card kits before when I needed a fast supply of cards - they are great for that - no coloring which takes me hours!!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours.
Brilliant. Now you know why I love card kits, they are so easy and you can still be a little creative. For the record, I think the pink base on the third card really works - more of the floral paper would have been too much in my opinion.
Best wishes.

Fabulous cards Carol. I've never tried card kits and they perhaps make it easier for you to decide what to make as I sometime spend more time deciding on the layout and which papers to use etc than I do on the actual colouring. Happy New Year to you xx
These are just gorgeous Carol, I haven't used a card kit since I first started crafting and I can see they have come a long way. Really beautiful.xx
You made the best of your gifted card kits with three lovely cards! I love how you added your own embellishments to complete each one, and the easel card looks perfect with the solid pink base! NJ on each one! Happy New Year!!
OH! these are so beautiful Carol. Love the colour combos.

Fabulous collection of cards! I especially like the way you colored the flower on the second card. Nicely done. Thank you for playing along at Double Trouble.
Great job with the kits, and I like the butterflies that link them all together. They all look so totally different. CarolG

Such pretty cards! It looks like a fabulous kit, and you've added your own special touches to make the cards even better!
This year for my Christmas cards I used a card kit; but same with you some of my personalized adds or changes. These cards are beautiful and love the one with the stripes...thanks for sharing them with us at Double Trouble.
Carol, those are all beautiful and those butterflies are gorgeous. You had some fun playing.
It is not always that easy to use as much as possible from a kit, but these cards look fresh and beautiful! Gerrina x
