Here we are in May...already! Boy this year is flying past. This will be my 3rd counterfeit kit. I am very happy to be participating in this challenge. I am definitely enjoying shopping my stash, trying new ways to make my own embellishments and just making pages with my monthly kit.
May's Counterfeit kit was an easy one for me to make up. I think it's going to be easy for me to use a lot more from it as well. This month, the kit is a fun, summer kit with a playful childlike tone from
Work in Progress. So without further ado, here is my version:
|
papers: Fancy pants- It's your day(stripe)
Cosmo Cricket-Chaplain ( large black page with number)
My Mind's Eye- red polka dot
Basic Grey- life of the party-confetti cake polka dot
Basic grey- life of the party- how you' ve grown-rulers
basic grey- life of the party- noise makers-green with plaid dots
Sassafrass-anthem
Sassafrass anthem-translate
Alphas; Basic Grey life of the party
Cosmo Cricket- flour sack
MISC: Basic Grey life of the party brads
Sassafrass paper whimsies cards
Fancy pants yellow ric rac
Lil' davis designs castaway rub ons
Maya road chipboard stars
Sassafrass cardstock stickers

Of course, as many of you know, I simply can not resist a good add on. Really, there is no excuse not to since I am shopping my stash. So I jumped in with both feet when it came to making up a boy inspired kit. For whatever reason this month, the number theme seems to really be a big thing for me. I used a lot of papers and embellishments with numbers of various shapes and sizes. It will be interesting to see how these gets used on pages throughout the month.

You might recognize a few things from previous kits. I decided to challenge myself yo use things I put into past kits but never used. So let's see how I do. I am off to play...

ReplyDeleteGreat job on both of your kits!! I like how you chose a more subtle color scheme and kept with the numbers theme! Have fun creating with them this month!
ReplyDeleteLoving all of the 'puzzly' parts of your kit - it's a really good take on the original!
ReplyDeleteFun kits! I really love the add on kit and good luck with your challenge to use stuff you haven't used yet. I do that too...one of these days, the right project/layout/mini will come along and be perfect for the stuff you haven't used yet. :)
ReplyDeleteI might have to steal your idea for next month! All of my leftovers are sent back to their homes probably not to be seen again for 6ish months haha! Love the softness of your kits, especially that they are still so playful :)
ReplyDeleteOhhh what great kits you've made!! And with Sassafrass papers too! I shy away from those quirky papers (although I've got many in my stash) because they scare me! LOL I never can figure out how to use them. Looks like you've got a great "stash store" at your place!
ReplyDeleteThese kits look terrific and are packed with wonderful goodies!! Have fun creating! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat kits, Christy! I can't wait to see what you do with your "numbers" papers. I included some in my kit, too, and I'm a little intimidated by them! I love that you're pulling from your previous kits, too. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat kits - these will be so easy to make lots of great pages with!
ReplyDeleteYou have tons of fun papers in there. Can't wait to see what you make.
ReplyDeleteNice, bright kits. You will have lots of fun with these. I like the look of theat green crossword type paper.
