Simply Citrus All-Inclusive Card Kit

I hope you had a wonderful World Cardmaking Day – did you get to make a card or two? While I make cards almost every day, it was nice to sit back and make the cards in my Simply Citrus All-Inclusive Card Kit. I made my cards with the instructions in the kit – the cards are absolutely lovely so I didn’t have to recreate them in my own image.

Here’s a look at the cover of the instructions (of course that’s the first thing I did after pulling the plastic wrap off the kit):

This all-inclusive kit makes 15 cards (3 each of 5 designs). The kit includes the following:

• Simply Citrus Photopolymer Stamp Set
• Night of Navy Stampin’ Spot
• clear block
• 15 card bases (with all the layered pieces)
• 15 envelopes (with patterned designs inside the flap)
• Vellum flowers
• Calypso Coral and Whisper White Baker’s Twine
• Glue Dots
• Stampin’ Dimensionals
• 9-1/4″ x 9-1/4″ x 1-7/8″ printed cardboard box.

After reading the instructions, I placed all the elements in front of me to set a strategy for getting through all of these awesome card. Here’s a look at the layout:

Here’s a closer look at the adorable stamp set (that, obviously, can be used over and over after I’ve completed the cards in my kit:

Earlier I said I followed the design steps outlined in the instructions – that’s mostly a true statement. This won’t surprise you, but I opted to leave the Calypso Coral and Whisper White Baker’s Twine off the cards – it’s lovely, but I didn’t feel like tying bows on my day off. 🙂

Here’s a look at the five designs I completed:

While the second and fourth designs only required stamping the sentiment, the other three designs included stamping the leaves or lemons or citrus onto the printed designs. Because they are photopolymer stamps, it was easy to line them up over the images. When it didn’t line up, though, it still looked pretty cool (and you can always say it’s part of the design to have the outline offset from the image).

Here are links to this fresh-and-fun kit that gives us lovely cards for a variety of occasions (along with some of the products you might want, but don’t need, when you are putting together your kit):
