Starting with the Kaisercraft knitted pattern from their Wonderland collection, I picked out some blues and greens in Carta Bella's Snow Much Fun and Winter Market collections. The red, pink, mint tones reminded me of Mix & A-Mingle by Simple Stories last Christmas and then I added in a couple of sheets of Heart Eyes too. In this way, I have a nice mix of real festive motifs as well as some non-Christmas patterns in the same colour scheme. Clever huh? </p></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><p style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="560" data-original-width="640" height="350" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitJ3eHQMlsVxJNRvWVIG3VUI1LAkkBS3mC2bwL_Nv4Q2BT_mZ85fXkhmxIq-uD47SXOK7AZ0-Qv7rzAxrEoPG5McbonRKqtAtHracMriMFmbM4Vqs9t3qRrZLdeOlGwMozqVyX23QpBL41O6mYMriLyPFqEVrazpt0iUa_OE0WEk76mGtNvAog/w400-h350/IMG_1664.jpeg" width="400" /></p><p>I thought the small pink design here on the right was similar to the yellow print of the original kit and that ticket paper is just lovely and fun to fussy cut maybe.

Second up the name reminded me of BasicGrey Aurora which, as fate would have it, features purples and greens. Third up - that reminded me of all the other BasicGrey featuring lilac, lavender and purple which I may or may not have been hoarding these last XXX years. Fourth up, that dark paper with the white dots reminded me of Simple Stories Heart papers. Fifth up - my kit came together much more quickly than I had anticipated! Twenty minutes or so and I had a full selection of papers and embellishments with lots and lots of older, vintage products and so... may I present to you... <b><span style="color: #e06666;">Treasured</span></b>.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-ZVD9xqCnI_z-1g6YwSeMUY3foLGWBuINkkYqL3Fe3pGDArhH-Ng-kUZrgcqZdoU33TqD33HexDuHqi-nVRJZ89iyhuxvXG8-ejV3FCApjNmAOv1KHnrXufavCh9CHeMtpHaJG2ej97SHYfK-dBGvyCuzdpfF0fBgsQ7x3VRb4uVtgUQNl0aB/s640/2023-09%20CKC%20Treasured.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="534" data-original-width="640" height="334" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-ZVD9xqCnI_z-1g6YwSeMUY3foLGWBuINkkYqL3Fe3pGDArhH-Ng-kUZrgcqZdoU33TqD33HexDuHqi-nVRJZ89iyhuxvXG8-ejV3FCApjNmAOv1KHnrXufavCh9CHeMtpHaJG2ej97SHYfK-dBGvyCuzdpfF0fBgsQ7x3VRb4uVtgUQNl0aB/w400-h334/2023-09%20CKC%20Treasured.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">I actually started by pulling the Siple Stories Heart papers Forever and Always in my Heart before moving on to the BG Aurora collection where I also included the alphabet sheet.

It's not as if I haven't been crafty in that time, just not here I guess! I've been on mini-kit duty over at the <a href="https://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.com">Counterfeit Kit Challenge</a> over the last couple of months and now I'm back with a regular kit so let's get started, shall we?</p><p style="text-align: center;">It's my turn to host the month at the Counterfeit Kit Challenge and not only did I ask our wonderful ex-MF and wunderkind <b><a href="https://www.instagram.com/obstinatepursuit/ ">Clair</a></b> to join us, but I also picked a new kit club by the European online shop, <a href="https://www.pinkandpaper.eu">Pink and Paper</a> which is run by the delightful <a href="https://www.pinkandpaper.eu/rolunk_4">Flóra</a>.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I joined up immediately and love the fact that she is local (as in Europe!) and that there are still new kit clubs starting up to inspire us all! </p><p style="text-align: center;">I've picked the first kit she offered - June 2023 which includes Crate Paper Gingham Garden as well as Cocoa Vanilla Happy Days items - I'll be sharing photos of all the individual items over in the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1336271363079421">FB community</a> as well as the full content list if you like all the details!</p><p style="text-align: center;">Here is the kit:</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRUmz9LqIOf_xNIvEpCY3x9ZTV__1C2xGDB80wRVkBSWkgIwoCXA1soMvlnWkj2E_xR9wPnXj7BJy1BlQL5dIQEUZx-NuAAkP91rH-epDToLIc1QhwFkQ2fPmZ45K1WH6Hr8LNPy_cpQ-vkcYg4zvGdnakttcGvtcpPKD3l3iPVgpskxOF8hG7/s1200/354015876_10223337844499903_6337328295869222915_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRUmz9LqIOf_xNIvEpCY3x9ZTV__1C2xGDB80wRVkBSWkgIwoCXA1soMvlnWkj2E_xR9wPnXj7BJy1BlQL5dIQEUZx-NuAAkP91rH-epDToLIc1QhwFkQ2fPmZ45K1WH6Hr8LNPy_cpQ-vkcYg4zvGdnakttcGvtcpPKD3l3iPVgpskxOF8hG7/w400-h400/354015876_10223337844499903_6337328295869222915_n.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUd-cLj2fMpMMGiRFmpVTeEBKnyHtC879kVhyOXdz44nAkhdOGe1zyHMwq8E53SLgFRfQaZD_UGIxdWTs2QJN2nQx0M_aV2qQos7sf6R8eECdeuNuW2dC_hra70GcXhYprDI9e-ovL3tyfnlkljWE6sw4vKHo6Eg4egIBQ3VKNpia2MAQGnwnE/s1080/354003537_10223337844459902_6355740300852525395_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUd-cLj2fMpMMGiRFmpVTeEBKnyHtC879kVhyOXdz44nAkhdOGe1zyHMwq8E53SLgFRfQaZD_UGIxdWTs2QJN2nQx0M_aV2qQos7sf6R8eECdeuNuW2dC_hra70GcXhYprDI9e-ovL3tyfnlkljWE6sw4vKHo6Eg4egIBQ3VKNpia2MAQGnwnE/w400-h400/354003537_10223337844459902_6355740300852525395_n.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">I particularly love all the florals, those super cute puffy hearts and the mix of soft and stronger shades. It speaks to my flower loving, pastel adoring heart! There's a lot in there and lots of ways to stretch it and make it your own.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Here is my kit, <b>Bouquet</b> (bad photos of course because it's late at night 😳)</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_d-VClmduQX_LsqCbdrKGolk-_g_x5k826MxMrCwomjjPRf8tppUiHI05KThcw7x2lqmLhkqYTGMqYV9fZexx6M_Xh0o08HaDZqZlvHq6SZDY0rVG3_BKrwdu1vDKXmRJY2xWDFvxH-LeFHs9xoib7El50-4Gw4R_e1OL0bkZXfdW1PlHpIlj/s640/2023-08%20CKC%20Bouquet.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="553" data-original-width="640" height="277" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_d-VClmduQX_LsqCbdrKGolk-_g_x5k826MxMrCwomjjPRf8tppUiHI05KThcw7x2lqmLhkqYTGMqYV9fZexx6M_Xh0o08HaDZqZlvHq6SZDY0rVG3_BKrwdu1vDKXmRJY2xWDFvxH-LeFHs9xoib7El50-4Gw4R_e1OL0bkZXfdW1PlHpIlj/s320/2023-08%20CKC%20Bouquet.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">I started off with the striped paper which reminded me of the paint strip paper from Gingham Garden. Mine is a Paige Evans "Wonders" paper. From there I picked out the large rose floral (Simple Stories Happy Hearts), the lilac heart print (Echo Park You & Me) and a green chevron by Pink Paisley (Atlas). I was drawn to the birds and butterflies in the Jen Hadfield Peaceful Heart collection and then added in a small sprig design too. I finished off with a couple of sheets from Gingham Garden which were not in the original.

I decided to name it "Easygoing" because of the summer vibes it has!</span></p><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwKLdQAZZlKfoU8S8yw0Ki0l6MjHJab84AohTZhKQ-UPRluYOuXNlkIgL32YTw8CXusvFMp9NHteWLPV1x7aj6kMPvpDGrSgEWr2h8F6nnsEbBnaosWrvj7c0W8YC_VsILoDvCDUo-HpE0e951wbxxfV7p_kd1b1LzA00Z3lJEJ7p6ymfc1w/s3986/IMG_5041.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2826" data-original-width="3986" height="284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwKLdQAZZlKfoU8S8yw0Ki0l6MjHJab84AohTZhKQ-UPRluYOuXNlkIgL32YTw8CXusvFMp9NHteWLPV1x7aj6kMPvpDGrSgEWr2h8F6nnsEbBnaosWrvj7c0W8YC_VsILoDvCDUo-HpE0e951wbxxfV7p_kd1b1LzA00Z3lJEJ7p6ymfc1w/w400-h284/IMG_5041.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div><p style="text-align: center;">When I saw the kit, I was particularly taken with the bright summer colours and the navy/coral florals. It felt like an interesting combination. It totally reminded me of the Simple Stories summer collection "Sunkissed" and so I started by pulling out those papers, embellishments and washi tapes and went from there.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I added in a few other Simple Stories papers from an older collection "Hello Summer" as well as the two sided spots in red and blue from "Say Cheese Main Street" followed by two sheets of bright, happy Paige Evans from "Go the Scenic Route". There are quite a few papers here for my usual kits but I spy some designs to cut apart or fussy cut and some b-side basics which will be great to use.</p></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Busy times - which is mostly a good thing ;-) </p><p style="text-align: center;">Anyway, I'm back today with a post about the Counterfeit Kit Challenge mini-kit which I signed up for this month.</p><p style="text-align: center;">MF Anna picked out this kit for us to inspire us - <a href="https://www.tracireed.com/journal/time-to-thrive">"Time to Thrive" by Traci Reed</a> which had a very distinct look with the embellishments and colour scheme. I was pretty unsure which way to take it.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkoS7mFCuIMo6Bf2odAl49PilvtOtmd4OqqrvB11e3452dR7wnNuzykLQklmYwRNNAEVlpKdnwIWAbkB9Gby6UhghYjCG9JKV8gbsByPMKuL3VAAR8oy7dPiwBXEMNOQ9Qc1Vb5hV2lXMBvkK1qClxCiBnFJMdrINuL910SqVA83fuugI6_w/s700/treed-timetothrive-trdpreview.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="700" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkoS7mFCuIMo6Bf2odAl49PilvtOtmd4OqqrvB11e3452dR7wnNuzykLQklmYwRNNAEVlpKdnwIWAbkB9Gby6UhghYjCG9JKV8gbsByPMKuL3VAAR8oy7dPiwBXEMNOQ9Qc1Vb5hV2lXMBvkK1qClxCiBnFJMdrINuL910SqVA83fuugI6_w/w400-h400/treed-timetothrive-trdpreview.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">I thought about making a mini-album but after a less than successful LOAD in February (I only managed 11 layouts in total), I decided to make another page kit from my huge Mabel kit and tell another of my "28 Days of Mabel" stories. I'm still planning on getting the full 28 Days of Mabel done as soon as I can - just a goal for myself.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;">Looking at the original kit, I decided to go with the yellow, blue, green colour scheme with a red/pink heart paper which could be useful and matches the inspiration. I also decided that the floral embellishments, labels, twine bows and banners were good things to include and I liked the idea of hearts, florals, stars, leaves and dots so made sure my papers or embellishments highlighted those parts of the inspiration as well. I brought together some papers (all of which are partial sheets), some tags left over from last month's mini, alphas, some floral die-cuts and a handful of dies to make some extra embellishments if needed. My "Mabel kit" is full of peach, lemon, pinks and soft pastels so it was interesting to sort through and find some items which didn't exactly fit that colour scheme and was pleased with the resulting kit.

I thought the smaller designs would make this page come together more easily and the tags seemed to have colours that complemented the papers - more or less! The spot paper reminded me of the watercolour effect of the striped paper in the original kit. I've added it in but am unsure how I will be using it.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijCwsYes-qMj95WVpw_mVEB2D-JE0BFCl3KgPeiGmmtOuoHdwXqk2Bt8tatPwOzK0xaVbgdBNMwYYqBYnoR6MIjrKDLoluerw32QccJ3lK09RI1xaILs2l4gCf3wLKlMwj_vLUEGUTovabPeNrLyyKfnIhtHDSEf4QGRY_YJrZWoMoh6nbTw/s640/7B1A29A7-5875-4A5E-8FDD-01B2AF6DC85F.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijCwsYes-qMj95WVpw_mVEB2D-JE0BFCl3KgPeiGmmtOuoHdwXqk2Bt8tatPwOzK0xaVbgdBNMwYYqBYnoR6MIjrKDLoluerw32QccJ3lK09RI1xaILs2l4gCf3wLKlMwj_vLUEGUTovabPeNrLyyKfnIhtHDSEf4QGRY_YJrZWoMoh6nbTw/w400-h400/7B1A29A7-5875-4A5E-8FDD-01B2AF6DC85F.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUm-FFQQThbwKzGzwwwfyDiGQQIVknTrOQEs8yZYMckVHJa-HTVcBpSITRpeyATR6QXj-M90oPTzL4MxTSmvIaidkQoykk-2JPklkHQxxK3L7z6jVLsm3k772gWS-p10Djgf9EzogpSA3zNhQ-lYCWxcNQEDWnZs-ykgzVAnldRJEycwQffg/s640/6610B4E2-DE64-4229-AB66-1D0A975F8445.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUm-FFQQThbwKzGzwwwfyDiGQQIVknTrOQEs8yZYMckVHJa-HTVcBpSITRpeyATR6QXj-M90oPTzL4MxTSmvIaidkQoykk-2JPklkHQxxK3L7z6jVLsm3k772gWS-p10Djgf9EzogpSA3zNhQ-lYCWxcNQEDWnZs-ykgzVAnldRJEycwQffg/w400-h400/6610B4E2-DE64-4229-AB66-1D0A975F8445.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCGYjB25x-D-wyeU9N3auI5JwOkge9_W3icp-wQUvpT5L3Pun0bdWUmWZ2G4S54YQpTGYbDdsPQxIF7wLmzdI4jyyfGefc_al2kbs8qGb2kuCIebgOtXeOb8riILLJuwZx5I-mZsfQLADddUfQ75wgTSx-h0gtOySeaGhuqsu863s9XoVXvQ/s640/2364967A-0D01-4309-92A5-3F2FCFA9678A.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCGYjB25x-D-wyeU9N3auI5JwOkge9_W3icp-wQUvpT5L3Pun0bdWUmWZ2G4S54YQpTGYbDdsPQxIF7wLmzdI4jyyfGefc_al2kbs8qGb2kuCIebgOtXeOb8riILLJuwZx5I-mZsfQLADddUfQ75wgTSx-h0gtOySeaGhuqsu863s9XoVXvQ/w400-h400/2364967A-0D01-4309-92A5-3F2FCFA9678A.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">I also included some of the dies that I've been repeatedly using on my Mabel pages recently.

I even write and print out the journalling whenever I can. This page was put together in the same was so I also added in a Simple Scrapper membership sketch, some photos I wanted to use and the story I wanted to tell before I considered my page-kit to be complete. The story I wanted to tell featured Mabel's friend - a black Labrador - so I felt that this stronger colour scheme would work well and still fit into my album of mostly softer shades.</p><div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2tHagQbOmyTibYFNxlB4-w6frQq0YGRfJNZzVqjd38LYbLAMyXA40SbU_uSqDs-v_8_oyVdM5F_AcsMV9uX_pXucVRfCtNYPXdBz6OmKkrCIZG1-h3IDQwze2p6u2RWLqphzH_Y1GjUfvYJIuw3MBy82PSITTRYLKxUCFC37n5lT4SAXI0A/s640/4FFD795B-B6BE-463B-A120-B1FFE8834C7A.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="442" data-original-width="640" height="276" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2tHagQbOmyTibYFNxlB4-w6frQq0YGRfJNZzVqjd38LYbLAMyXA40SbU_uSqDs-v_8_oyVdM5F_AcsMV9uX_pXucVRfCtNYPXdBz6OmKkrCIZG1-h3IDQwze2p6u2RWLqphzH_Y1GjUfvYJIuw3MBy82PSITTRYLKxUCFC37n5lT4SAXI0A/w400-h276/4FFD795B-B6BE-463B-A120-B1FFE8834C7A.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">The Simple Scrapper sketch is 8.5x11" so I adapted it for my 12x12 preference and the two photos I had picked out. The bottom photo - where they are cuddling - is almost identical to one I had printed out to tell another story about how they cuddle up. I had been irritated to realise how similar they were and that I couldn't use them both on one page so I was determined to find a way to include it in another story and by adding in the photo of Luna nudging Mabel to initiate play, the idea for the story came together.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I tried to stay guided by the sketch and I think the little line of tags is super cute and the addition of some leaves and flowers, as well as keeping those stronger shades to smaller proportions, keeps the layouts looking sweet and girly! They are both gorgeous "little" girls after all!</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5gAshVfNFs9alWxlRV7kshHwGsYX-zZB6lFjwdNPP7ZyHjX21fHOYZMalDdli31g7Eatau8v3sSFn-QfcYaRqMK2F_i9B_BG_df8wBMdhUvwaP-0SmnTXjQiVH5KdyK4Mca56E_MDzKdVrLl8W6Qn_-Jlbd8W1Xr6P3rocak27tMc8wLp8g/s640/9230ADF6-7458-4BDB-BC16-633A76A00F7E.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5gAshVfNFs9alWxlRV7kshHwGsYX-zZB6lFjwdNPP7ZyHjX21fHOYZMalDdli31g7Eatau8v3sSFn-QfcYaRqMK2F_i9B_BG_df8wBMdhUvwaP-0SmnTXjQiVH5KdyK4Mca56E_MDzKdVrLl8W6Qn_-Jlbd8W1Xr6P3rocak27tMc8wLp8g/w400-h400/9230ADF6-7458-4BDB-BC16-633A76A00F7E.jpeg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">28 Days of Mabel #12</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOcll_sBKqtMF3Lyl47mn7g6QhZtYAIm8OgZxNTtmXD2Ar4L_a8O1lIZKpQlyFzC5kOJGL2GQjWBbnqzhijDeAbXqzin8ty83HICOcXQTHJSlHGRAdkN82O3xtd8UxAP-Q7qb4KLq3hlu9phq8kn7oNw1_Un8xzSnYOofjDR-iUX_EU8sytA/s640/D8D08BAF-3F14-468D-92EB-71039BFB594A.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOcll_sBKqtMF3Lyl47mn7g6QhZtYAIm8OgZxNTtmXD2Ar4L_a8O1lIZKpQlyFzC5kOJGL2GQjWBbnqzhijDeAbXqzin8ty83HICOcXQTHJSlHGRAdkN82O3xtd8UxAP-Q7qb4KLq3hlu9phq8kn7oNw1_Un8xzSnYOofjDR-iUX_EU8sytA/w400-h400/D8D08BAF-3F14-468D-92EB-71039BFB594A.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji-mxNeoXAQr4tT8ZI8HBcN_toCJRJ3mde08-d6BkqPj9HnpenxVRNiRB_spp92d94lLvEvwmrBCgBuNJGHsh34_EPMBHGwjO4ZaTmLBdN1g7l0vzroI3h-c2Wom4HoUHDM47C-uUssAqIhuqfrVNkVX6SiaYEJuQ45Rf4Fusw2nlqGLIVGQ/s640/D86AF4F3-FA11-4642-BD3A-DFE3D65CFCA9.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji-mxNeoXAQr4tT8ZI8HBcN_toCJRJ3mde08-d6BkqPj9HnpenxVRNiRB_spp92d94lLvEvwmrBCgBuNJGHsh34_EPMBHGwjO4ZaTmLBdN1g7l0vzroI3h-c2Wom4HoUHDM47C-uUssAqIhuqfrVNkVX6SiaYEJuQ45Rf4Fusw2nlqGLIVGQ/w400-h400/D86AF4F3-FA11-4642-BD3A-DFE3D65CFCA9.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQQTm-JddeMhvjhhIIFGyHI2dceJ4YaNCbymRruQY7eSZIDlwAcj1SfUUHgIXXzWFTk-8gl-VyrYfvQXW0TMrG1HXES3RIxzSYTnI9EW932IVo6VZowSjyWRceEQkILll1zLCH5JrN7Uk5qOtuSjubMDf_8uXv437t6EACg8x844WdhsVQLA/s640/48CE1A33-5916-4D9A-AE5D-377879BA1444.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="618" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQQTm-JddeMhvjhhIIFGyHI2dceJ4YaNCbymRruQY7eSZIDlwAcj1SfUUHgIXXzWFTk-8gl-VyrYfvQXW0TMrG1HXES3RIxzSYTnI9EW932IVo6VZowSjyWRceEQkILll1zLCH5JrN7Uk5qOtuSjubMDf_8uXv437t6EACg8x844WdhsVQLA/w386-h400/48CE1A33-5916-4D9A-AE5D-377879BA1444.jpeg" width="386" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">Even though it's definitely different to the other Mabel pages I've made recently, I think it will fit into the album nicely and it was a great exercise to pull out papers and colours from a very full-on, baby pink themed larger kit to match the inspiration kit!

But first, a very warm welcome to our <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtPQqpo5m4m3V2v8pBvfdgw">Guest Designer Nikki Ihus</a> - so lovely to have her with us in October. </p><p style="text-align: center;">And now onto our new inspiration kit.

Then my eyes fell on the Simple Stories "<b>Heart</b>" collection which I totally adore but have only scratched the surface of in my own scrapbooking. It seemed to tick my boxes with the colours - mostly greens, blues and yellows - and also the patterns - stripes, plaid, hearts, flowers and small repeated patterns. </p><p style="text-align: center;">Papers were picked and then I went from there.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

I know I say that a lot but I feel it's important to let you know that I know! I am trying to do better and as always at the beginning of the year, I have plans... wish me luck.</p><p style="text-align: center;">But I think you're not here to hear my platitudes and (seemingly empty) promises 😉. I hope you are here for the new <b><a href="https://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.com/">Counterfeit Kit Challenge</a></b> kit and to see my interpretation of it.

This is such a fabulous kit that you know you're not going to want to miss a single stop on the hop so that you catch all the inspiration so make sure you say hi as you go along.

I clearly need more blue toned papers. I was struggling a little and I love using blue - note to self to pick some up next time I'm over at Scrapabilly 😉</p><p style="text-align: center;">Anyway, let's not dawdle. I'd like to introduce you to <b><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;">Starstruck</span></b></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEid0T137lKm3ibb0qP3N9mxKO6rePR6uMeBDhSycu6ilRGmikD6sbQJVtLf_c6roBYBgqBjwMHQebLjXsSGG_cN74a9yx8OpepNNEXg_1Lp_haxHVKFSxNj46tCaV1jqZPmyG5QSU1YOBfneDo2v1RIAbrXMI4DvfGpxIECYY9zMrmoRdz56g=s640" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="366" data-original-width="640" height="366" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEid0T137lKm3ibb0qP3N9mxKO6rePR6uMeBDhSycu6ilRGmikD6sbQJVtLf_c6roBYBgqBjwMHQebLjXsSGG_cN74a9yx8OpepNNEXg_1Lp_haxHVKFSxNj46tCaV1jqZPmyG5QSU1YOBfneDo2v1RIAbrXMI4DvfGpxIECYY9zMrmoRdz56g=w640-h366" width="640" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">I know what you're thinking... it seems to have wandered off the path of the original kit somewhat but I promise you, I can see the inspiration. </p><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">These are the papers and I started off with the sheet top left by Paige Evans Bungalow Lane. I thought the pink was perfect and it is dark blue in the background. From there I grabbed a handful of Pinkfresh Studio papers (top line) from different collections to pick out the pinks, denim and then the mustard and green of the original kit. They are not perfect matches but I think I like the mix. </p><p></p><div style="text-align: center;">Then I remembered my <a href="https://shop.studioforty.pl">Studio Forty</a> Lunar collection and as this has softer tones of pink and the colours of the night sky - aka blues - I thought this would also be a good fit. This collection is full of romance - the night sky, the sentiments and the whole dreamy feel of the collection. The whole bottom row of papers are from the collection. I agree that the two rows don't necessarily go together perfectly but I think I can make them work - and it's a LOAD month in February so I am in the whole Glue and Go modus which means making things work which I might not have done at other times!</div><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjLD1EGoRIFX0qc-46Jdv-8QXNHIlP3fQlJYxT04DjK2joYIHUWDqiQTs6emGVU0fZ-NEZyZZthAF_GpdAvn0iZzPVVL6k5k8LTRhOIQuh0SUrBaqEa8JvZAyifPD7uZPKOFittRMZpwZIIyMRI7UrLeoyrsbC4rDhiGd4g_ln3IWRDPtynbA=s640" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="495" data-original-width="640" height="310" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjLD1EGoRIFX0qc-46Jdv-8QXNHIlP3fQlJYxT04DjK2joYIHUWDqiQTs6emGVU0fZ-NEZyZZthAF_GpdAvn0iZzPVVL6k5k8LTRhOIQuh0SUrBaqEa8JvZAyifPD7uZPKOFittRMZpwZIIyMRI7UrLeoyrsbC4rDhiGd4g_ln3IWRDPtynbA=w400-h310" width="400" /></a></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhSoLN8M3hAk__fIVf4SApVifatp8BK_H3e4QLiNglXI_mVX8LjgJr7GtxXszo2tfrq0hMjgX1qTwEsc-p8bTV2jMfVGH3t_pcxWTWpVZPXluv01tcNL_w_oAI9UkF8Rn6KbQoM7cFmnUnbBYdwwmcdKoQZDsFtf94GUvja4YSfqqzQqbNXFw=s640" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhSoLN8M3hAk__fIVf4SApVifatp8BK_H3e4QLiNglXI_mVX8LjgJr7GtxXszo2tfrq0hMjgX1qTwEsc-p8bTV2jMfVGH3t_pcxWTWpVZPXluv01tcNL_w_oAI9UkF8Rn6KbQoM7cFmnUnbBYdwwmcdKoQZDsFtf94GUvja4YSfqqzQqbNXFw=w400-h400" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiFCyUMRRdwp1fhEqJElimSjtOt7zJyT3GIVn4c7ZRgAbDb__hhjyasbbd9wiHlt0pQioNFIiuLkdYUme1NOus-Ye-xkthIAiKd8cd80LEPjeYh-3h3gsrOn1GioJWA8rX5bIjzJd1Dup9AdYzmjIlnumvHDhhXqtkdCkjzkXKRH7qy7uqP9A=s640" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiFCyUMRRdwp1fhEqJElimSjtOt7zJyT3GIVn4c7ZRgAbDb__hhjyasbbd9wiHlt0pQioNFIiuLkdYUme1NOus-Ye-xkthIAiKd8cd80LEPjeYh-3h3gsrOn1GioJWA8rX5bIjzJd1Dup9AdYzmjIlnumvHDhhXqtkdCkjzkXKRH7qy7uqP9A=w400-h400" width="400" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">Then I went to town with the embellishments adding in everything I had from the Lunar collection, including a set of stamps which are hardly touched as yet.

I'm not sure if I can get it to work with the other products in which case I might be short on embellies but I'm curious to see how I work with the kit!</p><p></p><p></p><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjEBkW-jyY52_kuyy8w5Ly7eYN-rTDSrciYBBZcKQHbPnZf9-Fl8-KKPiIgSENQ4yxzJsoMxGh3LOSS4fcoHgpPYRUz-RF6x-sGl7oUmHBfSTIP_uHm2Sc2p1hciVWjaUOf4nuo-AX01OW-9wwaEd5A8Nhc8eIg-OG0jecazfujJAxlXI_h7w=s640" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

That's going to have to change. New year, new plans 😉.</p><p style="text-align: center;">But in the meantime, I hope you've hopped over here to see what I've done with our November <a href="http://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.com/">Counterfeit Kit Challenge</a> inspiration kit!</p><p style="text-align: center;">I love picking out the November kit and making it extra special - it's my birthday month in case you were wondering why! - and this month is no different.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Not only did I get to pick out a kit that I adore in autumnal colours that call out my name, but I also got to invite an online bestie, <a href="https://susannestampsandscraps.blogspot.com"><b>Susanne</b></a> to join us as Guest Designer for the month! <b><i>Win-win-win</i></b>!</p><p style="text-align: center;">So, here is the inspiration kit I picked out for us - <a href="https://felicityjane.com/collections/emily/products/september-kit-emily"><b>Felicity Jane September 2021 - Emily</b></a>.</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiJopJreDaDS3I3IQ3yMxyKfGALTuoRyl6zVhKmN1-KFW-ywzEB5S7Txf9oe1-u-LF5uHOafV8xrSbAinS7kA9zzz66cKkcktLew3oadeVh95LTF5xj7BhikKssg8k57uLEX-kcNrfKuL-4PFEdxeApyfTeuiSYWYoHA0C_Ou7rxQFIz4ZY5A=s1118" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1118" data-original-width="1100" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiJopJreDaDS3I3IQ3yMxyKfGALTuoRyl6zVhKmN1-KFW-ywzEB5S7Txf9oe1-u-LF5uHOafV8xrSbAinS7kA9zzz66cKkcktLew3oadeVh95LTF5xj7BhikKssg8k57uLEX-kcNrfKuL-4PFEdxeApyfTeuiSYWYoHA0C_Ou7rxQFIz4ZY5A=w394-h400" width="394" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://felicityjane.com/collections/emily/products/september-kit-emily" style="text-align: left;"><b>Felicity Jane September 2021 - Emily</b></a></td></tr></tbody></table><p style="text-align: center;">I usually try not to pick an inspiration kit which only has exclusive products but this one really got my heart racing and decided it had to be the one for us in November. The colours are stunning and I really liked the patterns and designs of the papers and embellishments. You can find out all the details over at the <a href="Felicity Jane September 2021 - Emily">Felicity Jane site here</a>.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Now... here's the thing... I've got <b><span style="color: red;">full-on rogue</span></b> this month and done something that is totally not my usual counterfeit style.</p><p style="text-align: center;">When I was looking through my supplies, my eyes fell on some <a href="https://www.studiocalico.com">Studio Calico pouches</a> that I picked up in a sale some time ago - two years ago maybe, although probably even longer. And I felt sure that I could find some gorgeous autumnal stuff in there. Well, not only did I find a piece of paper in a rather fetching shade of orange that I fell in love with, but that whole kit (<b><i><a href="https://www.studiocalico.com">Studio Calico</a> June 2016 - Expedition</i></b>) just seemed to fit the colours, design and feel of the Emily. So... do you know what I did? I decided just to use the WHOLE kit as my November Counterfeit kit. </p><p style="text-align: center;">😳 😉</p><p style="text-align: center;">On another level of <b>fun</b>, this Studio Calico kit was actually chosen as our exclusive extra inspiration for (i)NSD in 2019 (<a href="http://lisahausmann.blogspot.com/2019/05/international-scrapbook-day-saturday.html">find all the details here</a>) and I only realised that when I saw the sheet of paper with the large quote. Anyway, I did take out one or two items that just didn't fit what I wanted my kit to be but it has all the basic colours and designs that you can find in the original even if it's a little brighter and bolder! And of course, no doubt I will add some extras in as I go along - alphas, enamel dots etc.</p><p style="text-align: center;">But honestly, I just didn't feel in the mood for reinventing the wheel when I had a kit that just spoke to me, that's years old but still untouched and that I know I will enjoy using! I just needed the push to make the first cut. I'm not sure I've ever just picked up an existing kit and said that this was my Counterfeit kit and it feels good to shake things up this month.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I told the team, "My kit month, my rules!" and I want you to take away this message - your kit, your rules. There's no "right" way to make your kit. Just bring together products that make you happy and you're good to go.</p><p style="text-align: center;">So after such a long introduction, here's my "<b>Highlands</b>" kit.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiclslOb8KNtJ6_lXzq0CU_PyE40SjFVW-Dm1AWrhyuNJ8OrP0Bp1c4oDQPHnIWuCIj43tw_O3YbLMrP779qYklyuIkUcBt0J7aW-jGE-IWvopbuneC9kMZ4PJg5RoT960C3ItK7_36m8ThakAeIovmoaxaSXasiMUWcu2HxPJMQoA2vnj58g=s640" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiclslOb8KNtJ6_lXzq0CU_PyE40SjFVW-Dm1AWrhyuNJ8OrP0Bp1c4oDQPHnIWuCIj43tw_O3YbLMrP779qYklyuIkUcBt0J7aW-jGE-IWvopbuneC9kMZ4PJg5RoT960C3ItK7_36m8ThakAeIovmoaxaSXasiMUWcu2HxPJMQoA2vnj58g=w300-h400" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhJ_AFIbhnOyekFezz6oJQf7vQKgFUnmgvuTxgOZUdTRlK09DNs1hyO7CHh5Hrb0EF1o69AIT3Ai6B1mfHrjULEj-kRx-zCTcaNFYuqHRN9lsy6quxSmpX66Y7aMI0Tx6vukka0u4cJslPmJtOYCH7grIEAw12qe0M9eW6U_wY9aJyj3cYLAQ=s640" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhJ_AFIbhnOyekFezz6oJQf7vQKgFUnmgvuTxgOZUdTRlK09DNs1hyO7CHh5Hrb0EF1o69AIT3Ai6B1mfHrjULEj-kRx-zCTcaNFYuqHRN9lsy6quxSmpX66Y7aMI0Tx6vukka0u4cJslPmJtOYCH7grIEAw12qe0M9eW6U_wY9aJyj3cYLAQ=w400-h400" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjJymwOftXMnqx0nJLb5Is3nxdGOU6-JA9UGK-QNF5JQuNY2u0_YeMEhD0cDVccOWlU0IOW-T4siD_nhGWiTIc9FtkTUBzhfVeOG2A_VwJNUSHNycR-nTCopJR25LOOM1AxQ4TcoDAPvBd92BOAao5Axhk5z-khojHXtbjUWJeKDZpK7wskOg=s640" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjJymwOftXMnqx0nJLb5Is3nxdGOU6-JA9UGK-QNF5JQuNY2u0_YeMEhD0cDVccOWlU0IOW-T4siD_nhGWiTIc9FtkTUBzhfVeOG2A_VwJNUSHNycR-nTCopJR25LOOM1AxQ4TcoDAPvBd92BOAao5Axhk5z-khojHXtbjUWJeKDZpK7wskOg=w400-h400" width="400" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">The oranges, the yellows, the graphic black and white, the dark blues.

I know I say this a lot, but I really like blogging and rather miss it when I don't so while I'm not promising anything at all, I'd like to try harder to get back here more often.</p><p>But onto the reason I'm here today. It's the first of a new month and that means that it's <a href="http://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.com/">Counterfeit Kit Challenge</a> and we've got a scorcher today.</p><p>Hopefully you've reached me via Tracey's blog (<a href="https://3obsessions.blogspot.com/">here</a>) and next up is Cindy (<a href="http://cindyscreations-cinmfoster.blogspot.com/">here</a>) - you'll find the full hop list at the end of the post.</p><p>But you are definitely not going to want to miss any of the reveal this month - the kits are fantastic and we have a total celebrity as our Guest Designer! I'm having a bit of a fangirl moment to be honest as we are honoured to have the fabulous <b><u><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: medium;"><a href="http://craftwithmay.com">May Flaum</a></span></u></b> with us in June! I think May was one of my first scrap crushes and I was definitely into everything she did right from the very start back in 2006. My memories are hazy but I'm sure I did at least one of her classes and checked out all her creativity back in the day when our time was filled with reading blogs and not a lot else. Am I right that she was a lead Fiskateer - I have my scissors in my hand every time I scrap and am proud #2058! Ah, in the days when things were a little simpler and it was easier to follow the inspiration. </p><p>Anyway, I'm so thrilled to have her with us and hope that she will fall in love with our little corner of the world and want to hang out with us more!</p><p>On to this month's kit. <a href="https://kryptonite72-rambles.blogspot.com">MF Tara</a> has given us a cracker - the <a href="https://www.cocoadaisy.com/product-category/past-kits/backyard-blooms-kits-august-2020/">August 2020 Cocoa Daisy kit, Backyard Blooms</a>. It's gorgeous and I knew I was going to have fun with it. You can find out all about it over at the Cocoa Daisy site and there are variations too if the main kit isn't your thing.</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPNmPs6ya4rAufkY3hANVB9qRFEEG5luHlH3LmAg0mx1hxs38AdOCEkL2080NrT5gaLW9epaf8edKOJyqC8LBYo5xnbCvnzJ5OFtyjU7iYqPc26rs3cN0lLnDoQaqbL9NEk7UV/s1200/Pocket-kit.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPNmPs6ya4rAufkY3hANVB9qRFEEG5luHlH3LmAg0mx1hxs38AdOCEkL2080NrT5gaLW9epaf8edKOJyqC8LBYo5xnbCvnzJ5OFtyjU7iYqPc26rs3cN0lLnDoQaqbL9NEk7UV/w400-h400/Pocket-kit.jpg" width="400" /></a></p></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><p><a href="https://www.cocoadaisy.com/product-category/past-kits/backyard-blooms-kits-august-2020/">Cocoa Daisy - August 2020 Backyard Blooms</a></p></td></tr></tbody></table><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbl371XLJo7LZipNLwqwUaaJF0ZUXiI2CyrwvXxe-RT1c9xzweReDeIxA8_FgncXj2w6mhNMCWTVqR1tivkKbwd5KvPCe3cho4E1hINXn7MzCLl1c1Ci7-fl1rGP9pyf0nleel/s2040/185393509_10226429647670815_27744955583351307_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2040" data-original-width="2040" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbl371XLJo7LZipNLwqwUaaJF0ZUXiI2CyrwvXxe-RT1c9xzweReDeIxA8_FgncXj2w6mhNMCWTVqR1tivkKbwd5KvPCe3cho4E1hINXn7MzCLl1c1Ci7-fl1rGP9pyf0nleel/w400-h400/185393509_10226429647670815_27744955583351307_n.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.cocoadaisy.com/product-category/past-kits/backyard-blooms-kits-august-2020/">Cocoa Daisy - August 2020 Backyard Blooms</a></td></tr></tbody></table></p><p></p><p>I had a conversation with Tara and she mentioned it being red, yellow and blue and I think that's funny as I saw it in a completely different way as you can see below.

Then off I went and ticked those off one by one to produce a kit which is not exactly me but one I'm excited to cut into!</p><p style="text-align: left;">I started off picking out papers from Color Story which are new for me and I knew that they picked out the colours I had picked out in the original kit. From there, I selected some florals by Carta Bella to bring out the softer summer shades and themes, and then added in some watercolour effect papers to round it off.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTCzP-aN-FqkKcxKp3109lEEu5Pqg_p6P64hhxkKjM7Clm8rufM8vOUoxs08kOFfeWX1MQJgVKoVxTR9TEX0OFOp7sdhw5FBTJMDyx9eltZ_d2jmYZ59J4yYjk1zZwT5jCT7JC/s640/2021-06+CKC+Rainbow_detail1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="451" data-original-width="640" height="283" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTCzP-aN-FqkKcxKp3109lEEu5Pqg_p6P64hhxkKjM7Clm8rufM8vOUoxs08kOFfeWX1MQJgVKoVxTR9TEX0OFOp7sdhw5FBTJMDyx9eltZ_d2jmYZ59J4yYjk1zZwT5jCT7JC/w400-h283/2021-06+CKC+Rainbow_detail1.jpg" width="400" /></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT-6uz9TU5ljUx9bRUA6Io831ieaK-bZhlEtR2HdEhAUIEg8_m1Dkd_R0IVHp2nlG89tnWCSeFqPIqa_D4UmhheAemfJ5oAh9WTfWKB_xjl0S4O6fJeCiEDtT8qOeJH1DenkZt/s640/2021-06+CKC+Rainbow_detail2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT-6uz9TU5ljUx9bRUA6Io831ieaK-bZhlEtR2HdEhAUIEg8_m1Dkd_R0IVHp2nlG89tnWCSeFqPIqa_D4UmhheAemfJ5oAh9WTfWKB_xjl0S4O6fJeCiEDtT8qOeJH1DenkZt/w400-h400/2021-06+CKC+Rainbow_detail2.jpg" width="400" /></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJjLtv80xf3vuOP6srRpCC9a3f76S_8HopQ7TLcolK1P09xE96aL1Pp_rj9uwQ2YQOtyOOa980n09kk0xz7Ofd_2gYAldIUYFTTXPuQzsjjnjzbQR_Slq-lBKlSNJ2L0YA6Yx6/s640/2021-06+CKC+Rainbow_detail3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJjLtv80xf3vuOP6srRpCC9a3f76S_8HopQ7TLcolK1P09xE96aL1Pp_rj9uwQ2YQOtyOOa980n09kk0xz7Ofd_2gYAldIUYFTTXPuQzsjjnjzbQR_Slq-lBKlSNJ2L0YA6Yx6/w400-h400/2021-06+CKC+Rainbow_detail3.jpg" width="400" /></a></p><p style="text-align: left;">The embellishments were easy.

font-size: medium;">At the Heart of It!</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;">As this month's layout is called Herzstück, which could be translated as "at the heart of something", I decided to challenge us all to record something or someone who is at the heart of it all in some way, or even just to make sure that we use lots of hearts on our layout. I managed to do both!</p><p style="text-align: center;">I'm in the middle of LOAD221 at the moment and decided to make it a "28 Days of Mabel" so of course, the topic of today's layout just had to be our puppy and how she is most definitely in the heart of our little family.</p><p style="text-align: center;">My heart-filled kit was perfect for this layout and I just went for a bunch of layers and a generous sprinkle of flowers, stickers and tiny bits and pieces. You might notice that the green paper in the background is strategically placed so that you only see flowers and the leafy wreath design. In reality, it's covered in gorgeous birds but they just didn't fit the theme of any of my layouts so I had to be clever to make sure you could see the beautiful paper but not necessarily the detail of the design - I'm crafty like that 😉</p><p style="text-align: center;">This is a photo from Christmas (along with my internet shy husband) and one of the few where you could see us all and Mabel wasn't just a blur of wriggling or trying to lick one or both of us! Maybe I should have written about that too - or perhaps that's a story for another layout with another Christmas photo!</p><p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjHVZ29JSg0d3qgdKjlKiNKrk3bbf0wtLMglfurtdq68hau2ZEGvT3GMX1urOXyYaYQS9tNSGlVyNwRWeIjdOB7Dg7WpXGJLH_eqdwD-uHcifigwRy9beN-h6U-aTgJ1PbVDWC/s2687/21-02-04+CKC+Heartfelt+%25234+LOAD221+%25234+%25281%2529.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2687" data-original-width="2687" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjHVZ29JSg0d3qgdKjlKiNKrk3bbf0wtLMglfurtdq68hau2ZEGvT3GMX1urOXyYaYQS9tNSGlVyNwRWeIjdOB7Dg7WpXGJLH_eqdwD-uHcifigwRy9beN-h6U-aTgJ1PbVDWC/w400-h400/21-02-04+CKC+Heartfelt+%25234+LOAD221+%25234+%25281%2529.jpeg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">(I have no idea why all my photos are turning out so badly right now! <br />The background is a nice, bright white in reality!)</span> </td></tr></tbody></table></p><p style="text-align: center;">I had fun with the splats of ink and small embellishments.

Which doesn't necessarily mean that I've been doing nothing. Although I've been doing a lot less than usual ;-) We moved and therefore the scrapping reduced to a minimum and I've mostly been posting over at the <a href="http://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.com">Counterfeit Kit Challenge</a> or their <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1336271363079421">FB community</a>. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">And here we are in a new month and I'm back with my first full kit of the new year.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;">I'm not a fan of February to be honest but with a pretty kit as inspiration, I'm hoping to be motivated to scrap.... let's see.</p><p style="text-align: center;">First up, the full hop list for today's kit reveal can be found at the bottom of the post and don't forget to check out our delightful Guest Designer Eileen (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/eileen.taylor.528">find her on FB here</a>) who will be posting directly into our <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1336271363079421">Counterfeit Kit Challenge FB community</a>. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> Now let's take a look at the inspiration kit I picked out.

From there I added in the yellow dots (Simple Stories), the soft red graph (Pebbles) and the vellum (Crate Paper) which I thought were similar in colour, pattern and feel to papers in the original. Now I felt that the kit was heading in a different direction so I just went with the flow and added in three more Paige Evans Go the Scenic Route papers (red with tiny hearts, whimsical birds and the bright hearts), a sheet of black and white squares (Crate Paper) and a monochrome floral (Pinkfresh).

It will be interesting to see if I can use the brighter colours with some of the softer shades in my kit.</span></p><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin5oZBH6USudDSh6__q6wVqCl5Fs93KC4fFr5S5OpN75ZGzFqdKpC-HRlhbpIPV1IcgzP73fr8lMc0lysKzYKcEAiiOSm1lWlSv5nRf9Ptj855T741hZi2LNzBMGOL1Qrh4vUO/s640/2021-02+-+CKC+Heartfelt_detail4.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="640" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin5oZBH6USudDSh6__q6wVqCl5Fs93KC4fFr5S5OpN75ZGzFqdKpC-HRlhbpIPV1IcgzP73fr8lMc0lysKzYKcEAiiOSm1lWlSv5nRf9Ptj855T741hZi2LNzBMGOL1Qrh4vUO/w400-h400/2021-02+-+CKC+Heartfelt_detail4.jpeg" width="400" /></span></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I also wanted a lot of variety with my alphas and added in a couple of swirly gold which felt similar to the original, but also a couple of small ones, and a Pink Paislee pink and gold set. I have way too many alphas and many of them are almost at the end of their useful life. I'd like to clear the decks a little so I could get some news ones with a clear conscience!

Just yesterday it was the middle of winter and now here we are on the 1st August!<span style="color: #e06666;"><b> <span style="color: #e06666;">;-)</span></b></span><br />
<br />
Anyway, time is flying and there's nothing we can do about that than think, <b><span style="color: #e06666;">"Welcome to a new month!"</span></b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hopefully, you've reached me for the <a href="http://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.com/">Counterfeit Kit Challenge</a> kit reveal and hop from the ever prolific <a href="http://julenebydesign.blogspot.com/">Julene</a> and next up is sweet <a href="http://lcsmithsaved-outofthemire.blogspot.com/">Leslie</a>. Of course, you won't want to miss out on our wonderful <a href="https://www.instagram.com/oceanfreak1/">Guest Designer Gina</a> and as ever, you can find the full hop list at the end of the post. Make sure you catch up with everyone today as I think there's some fabulous takes on this month's inspiration kit.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://tinasscrapcorner.blogspot.com/">Master Forger Tina</a> is in control this month and she's selected the gorgeous <a href="https://www.hipkitclub.net/august-2019-main-kit">Hip Kit Club main kit from August 2019</a> for us. It's fresh and modern and has a hint of purple which is interesting - in a good way! I really like the mix of yellows, oranges, reds, blues and purples here which I think is a combination you don't often come across. I always love what the <a href="https://www.hipkitclub.net/">Hip Kit Club</a> put together and this one was no different.<br />

As you can see, my take on the inspiration kit came out a bit differently but overall, I think I have captured the essence! Well, for me anyway. It's definitely a little toned-down compared to the original kit - hence my kit name - but I think it will work for me!<br />

To start my process, I made a note of the main colours and designs I could see and picked out three sheets of paper as my starting point: Rise and Shine (bold stripes) from Amy Tangerine's Oh Happy Day; Ticket to Ride (repeated rectangles in the form of tickets) from Pink Paislee's Atlas and #13 (with the houses) from Paige Evan's collection. To me they picked out the main themes (houses, repeated shapes and bold colour blocks) as well as the colours (lilac, yellow, orange and blues). From there I looked through my stash to find florals, circles, bright repeated patterns, stars, and geometric and tried to incorporate as many of the colours as I could - tones of yellow, pink and blue and making sure to bring in some purple! Yes, far, far away from the original - but everything is there all the same!<br />

Next up, I have to admit that I was a little short of time so I made it easy for myself by rummaging through my Pinkfresh Studio supplies and adding in a bunch of embellishments to match up some of the original kit items - words, die cuts, alphabet, puffy shapes and labels. I had already added two sheets of Pinkfresh Studio paper to my kit, so that seemed like a good idea and I noticed that several of the packages were almost untouched. Time to give those a go!<br />

As a last thought, I added in a sheet of dots that brought more of the purple tones in. Perfect!<br />

There will be some extra items that I'll no doubt be adding in to this as I go through the month because I don't often limit myself to just one supplier for embellishments but overall, I think this kit will work for me and I'm hoping it will help boost my mojo a little!<br />
<br />
I created one single page in July :-( Even though I'm 100% enjoying the time with my puppy and don't want to miss a second, I do miss my creative time a little ;-)<br />
<br />
As always, there is a lot going on over at the<a href="http://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.com/"> CKC blog</a> this month so don't forget to check it all out as well as say hi to all the hoppers today! </div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I made a list of the colours, patterns and motifs in the kit and decided to go mostly </span>vintage<span style="font-family: inherit;"> BasicGrey </span>because<span style="font-family: inherit;"> I was totally reminded of their designs and a lot of their simpler collections were also quite monochromatic.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I've decided to call my kit, <b><span style="color: #e06666;">Classic</span></b>!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">This is a big kit and I'm sure that I won't use it all up as I tend to need more colours and variety. But I can definitely imagine a handful of pages and some cards or maybe even a PL spread. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here are the papers - the first two rows are all BG and </span>then<span style="font-family: inherit;"> I was reminded of the My Mind's Eye </span>collection<span style="font-family: inherit;"> that I got in both the grey/silver and red/glitter combinations and decided to throw in everything I have in the grey range. Ah! That makes me happy to see these really older designs seeing </span>the<span style="font-family: inherit;"> light of day!</span><br />

Added to this, I decided to include a bunch of BG alphabets - I have a huge pile of these and they are just not getting used up and are bound to be losing their stickiness too. I included everything I thought would match the papers and started to include the hint of green and pink that can be seen in the original embellishment elements.<br />

From there I went though all my older embellishments and found tags, tickets, ribbons, washi tape, flowers, leaves, labels, word stickers, die cuts, brads and whole bag of random bits and pieces that must be 10 or 12 years old. There is absolutely nothing in this kit that is new as far as I can see - the newest are four die cuts left over from a Scrapabilly kit from a couple of years ago! Many or maybe even most of the items are over 10 years old and I'm really curious to see how up to date I can make them all look on a page. A great challenge for myself. I love it!<br />
<br />
I have many items in the kit which were gifted to me by happy, scrappy friends - both in real life and online. I hope I can make them proud to get these items onto creative projects.<br />

I still love flowers but the dimension puts me off these date. Cards maybe?</div>

So there you have it. A very simple if full kit full of all the shades and shapes of the original with my beloved BasicGrey as the star of the show. Perfect for me and perfect for some inspiration to scrap. My puppy is taking up so much of my time that I just don't have much left over for creatively. Let's see if I can change all that this month!<br />
