Welcome to my blog and happy August, the end of dog days of summer are upon us and we are at the moment enjoying more comfortable temperatures! I'm just glad to have a few days off from work and play with my kit :) It's the 1st of the month and that means a new inspiration kit over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog, you should have arrived here from Tara's blog I'm looking forward to checking out her kit and see what inspired her. Welcome our Guest Designer - a dear old friend of CKC & former Master Forger - Clair Rigby!
Master Forger of Ceremonies Lisa here, your Counterfeit Kit Challenge host for the month of August. Lisa has chosen another new kit club for August - this time from the European online shop Pink and Paper. It's run by Flóra who has designed and worked with some of the big names including designing the latest Pinkfresh Studio collection, Lovely Blooms. Her kit club is a little different - it's a private membership which includes two online live workshops to create pages together using the kit elements - and of course I had to give a go! I love it when something is coming out of my corner of the world! Apart from the fact that I think new kit clubs should be applauded in general, I think this is an interesting mix of colours and motifs as well as being a kit that can be stretched as you need it - stronger colours can be picked out for colder seasons, lots of florals and summer colours for us in the middle of summer.
Pink and Paper Subscription Club - June kit |
A sweet summer kit with the blues, the checks, the yellows, some pink and even some purple. When I seen the inspiration I knew I would be mixing up some Pinkfresh Studio with some 49&Market.
Here is my kit for August:
Sunshine Happy
Here are the papers:

Some stickers that I want to finish up this month and thought they look good with this kit plus some CTMH stickers that just about matched up in color with the 49&Market Gardenia collection. Some Prima butterflies and chipboard:To round out the end with some subdue colors in the 49&Market Tranquility collection for some neutrals and softer colors
Don't miss a stop on the hop!

Oh, Tina, what a killer kit! I love how the 49 & Market lends it a more 'arty' feel and can't wait to see what you create this month! xx
ReplyDeleteYou have all the elements there but with your own (softer) twist on the kit. It looks lovely, I'm jealous. Enjoy your month.
ReplyDeleteI adore your paper choices, especially the purple and gold marbled!
