June Counterfeit Kit Challenge

I have really been looking foward to the new Counterfeit kit Challenge coming out and haven't been disappointed.

This months choices are both from Scraptastic and the kits are called after the storm and destination unknown. I chose destination unknown as I loved the bright pinks and yellows, and it seemed a nice change from the darker colours last month.

I loved the original kit so much I decided to make the add on to.

My Versions

 

 

 Looking forward to using it all

 

Tiny Twinchie Swap

Another UKS swap this time to make a set of twinchies, 2 x 2 inch square decorated cards

 

I completed 4 sets one orange, one green both for a rainbow swap and 2 more for anything goes.

This is a Sweet Pea Stamp coloured with ProMarkers.

The wording is an Amy Tangerine Stamp and the boarder is my first go at drawning a black and white stripey boarder for my fellow Secret Swappers.

A free stamp from Craft Stamper Magazine in the centre with some embossing from a Tim Holtz floral Stamp.

Another free Craft Stamper Stamp and some distress ink and a touch of Treasure Gold my new flavour embellisher.

 

Hope the other swappers like them all.

Back to school counterfeit style

A double page spread using the last of my counterfeit kit.

The photos are of my sons first day at senior school and my Daughters first day in the sixth form last September.

 

I added a few Creative Memories back to school stickers to my kit as I had them hanging around and they seemed to fit the bill, along with some Thickers in aa American high school style .

 

Really pleased I joined the Counterfeit Challenge has made me complete use some different colourways and lingering items.  

 

 

 

 



Happy Anniversary

Card for my husband to celebrate our 3rd Wedding Anniversary.
Used the stamp that came free with Craft Stamper magazine and some card shapes from MME, very simple but pleased with the outcome.

Happy Birthday Harry

A birthday card for my son who is 12 today!

I have used the May counterfeit kit Challenge papers which made me use a different selection of colours to normal.

I used a Papermania Sausage Dog rubber stamp and used a card made for the March/April 2013 Docrafts Creativity magazine as my inspiration for the design.

 

 

May Counterfeit challenge Page

Love these photos of us in Frankie and Benny's where the kids were playing a guessing game with the kids pack that came with Daisy's dinner.

 

I have used my version of the Totally Rad kit suggested by the counterfeit kit challenge using some MME and AC papers.
