Kitting LO for a Counterfeit Kit Challenge

 Good Morning and welcome :) 3rd challenge of the month over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog Julene chose a Page Maps sketch for the challenge 

This is the layout I created with it 

Love this sketch for this story of me trying power sorting/scraping. This was a one day adventure that I wanted to scrap using sketches from Fast Feb and 30 Days of sketches. I had fun putting it together.

Thank you for stopping by today and seeing what I'm up to in my little corner of the world. I hope you join us over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog for this fun challenge.

CKC - March 2024 Kit Reveal - Chase Your Dreams

Welcome to my blog and the 1st of March that means it's a new inspiration for us over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge kits to challenge us to look through our own stash and choose a kit to play with. 1st you should have arrived here from Ryann's Instagram I'm looking forward to checking out her kit and see what inspired her. We are thrilled to have Jessica Haab join us as Guest Forger, she posts regularly on our community page so check that out too. Make sure you leave her some love!!!
Julene is our host this month and she says:

The kit I have chosen for March is   Citrus Twist Kits "Parasol"    

  PARASOL 12 x 12 Kit – Citrus Twist Kits

It has a Spring vibe which should appeal, plus many different ideas for kit forgeries. There's a floral theme underlying the papers and cut aparts. Maggie Holmes papers appear. It is a pretty kit. 




The kit definitely has a Spring vibe to it, I went with oranges instead of the lemons in the kit. 

Here is my kit for March:

Chase Your Dreams

I love the inspirational kit, love the blues and yellows together in this kit and what I thought I was going to use before I left for vacation has since changed when I got back as this kit will work out well with any photos of the trip I scrap and still coordinate with the chosen papers from the album we were putting together on the ship. Yep, I took my very 1st Scrapbooking Cruise and have to say it was an AWESOME experience to enjoy my hobby while I'm on vacation too.

Papers: 

I chose a variety from my drawers of loose papers, Pinkfresh Studio Flower Market that had the Spring vibe going as well as some from Vicki Boutin's Printshop collection and some Prima Nature Lover collection to bring in the birds in the inspirational kit

Close ups:

I had no pompom ribbon so brought in some other ribbons, twine and fiber
Hit the Flower Market for most of my embellishments for my kit
made sure to bring in some wood buttons too and maybe get some of the packs onto pages, set of stamps that I thought might be fun to use too
I grabbed a Blue alpha from the Flower Market collection and the white words and the BoBunny candy dots from a Not Just for Boys kit, the stamps came from the kit too. The PL cards I keep handy in a tray so I always have them available to me and my mixed media I will use when it's needed. That's it, that's my kit for March I hope to get further along with it then I did my February kit ;) Thanks for stopping by today to my little corner of the world. Off you go to Vickki's Instagram if you get lost along the way the blog list is below. We look forward to seeing what you come up with for your kit this month at the CKC communly facebook group
