Little Birdies ACK - Part 1

This really SHOULDN'T be part 1 of the Little Birdies ACK (Artful Card Kit) because I clearly had used quite a bit of it already - but I don't find any other posts, so I must not have actually posted my makes.  So, I'll start numbering this with number "1", but my total will probably be only 1/2 of what I actually made from this kit!

Card #1 (above):  I clearly used all the best papers already, and what was left really didn't go with some of these toppers.  The die cuts were so pretty that I didn't want to sacrifice them by putting them with "iffy" papers, so the first two cards are made using papers from my stash.  The only other thing that I added to this card front was a small strip of black/gold washi tape.

Inside:

The washi tape & paper make another appearance on the inside - along with the rest of the border & other die cuts from the kit.

Card #2:

There was nothing remotely supportive of the colors in this focal (since I had already used up the pinks from the kit) - so I found some lavender papers in my stash.  I also added gold poster board, black/gold washi tape, & a couple of Hunkydory Sentiments.

Inside:

More of the same - with another die cut from the kit.  The gold was cut with a stitched die from Fun Stampers Journey (Rectangles Long).

Card #3:

The main background paper for this card & the next one, DID come from the kit.  However, I could not find paper in the dark pink color in my stash (and had already used what came in the kit).  Since I REALLY wanted it matting & border, I used 3 layers of inks on plain white card stock to get as close to the color as I could.  Most of the rest of the elements are from the kit, but the peach colored tag was a Hunkydory Sentiment.

Inside:

Inside I inked some more & added a piece of paper & a die cut from the kit.

Card #4:

Much of this card came from the kit.  I did add gold poster board from my stash, and a couple of Dazzles border stickers.

Inside:

By this time I was running out of materials - AND ideas - so the inside is pretty simple.
