While the Cat’s Away Day 4: Beach House Cards
Filed under Alice in Wonderland, Cat's Away... 2014, Giveaways, Kits, Newsletters, Sale
Hey, it’s Day 4 of the While the Cat’s Away Giveaways! And today’s theme is Beach House Cards.
This was a meandering process, but I think the kit turned out grand. I started with an odd set of papers (four 12″ x 12″ scrapbook papers) with a “playing cards during a summer beach vacation theme” then started adding cards, which led to… Alice in Wonderland!
Beside those papers (which are only available in this kit), a couple other new items are exclusive to this kit:
– That curved, red lacy heart paper (in the center of the photo). It’s a bit heavier than cardstock weight and laser-cut.
– A set of acrylic heart charms in 3 colors (see the small photo at right… which is a crop from a larger photo you can view on the kit page).
(Leave me a comment with your contest entry and let me know if you’d like me to carry those 2 items — separately from the kit.)
See the Beach House Cards Kit page for a detailed list of all the items and more photos.

I like the fun of meandering thru art supplies. It is inspiring and you never know what you will find.
Down the rabbit hole we go! And, “Off with her head!” if you don’t add the two heart items to your collection–perfect for Valentine’s Day.
This is just my kind of quirky mixture of stuff.As for selling those two items separately, I say yes. Valentine’s Day, Alice, heart’s desire…possibilities are endless for use.
