CKC - March 2025 Kit Reveal - Cruisin' Through Life

Welcome to my blog and a new month of Counterfeit Kit Challenge kit to challenge us to look through our own stash and choose a kit to play with. 1st you should have arrived here from Tara's blog. I'm looking forward to checking out her kit. Christine is also our hostess this month. But first I would like to welcome our guest Master Forger this month, Martha Saenz. You can check out her creations over on her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/msaenzmd

Master Forger Ryann is our hostess this month and she has chosen a fun kit, just perfect for me as I just came back from a cruise and it fits our album collection well. Our inspiration kit for the month is from Sweet Shoppe Designs . I chose the Beach Tale Collection by Kristin Cronin-Barrow. While this is a digital kit (and I have some of it) there is plenty to counterfeit from our stash!  

This one spoke to me since it looks like Hawaii - and I just got back from my first trip to Hawaii in February!  My husband and I hadn't been before, and we went for his birthday.  And speaking of birthdays, March is my birthday month, so we will use this kit for birthday layouts, too!   I know that not everyone has tropical photos to scrapbook, but this kit looks really versatile - lots of wood grains in different colors, water that can be pool photos, and there are two collections in this kit - one that is softer pastels, the other that is a little more bold.  There is enough of both pink and blue to appeal to nearly anyone!  The woodgrain and browns gives enough neutral options to make the whole kit great for a variety of layouts. 

Kit overview:

Kit 1 - High Tides

Kit 2 - Good Vibes

The perfect choice for me this month and will work out well with my cruise photos. I love the colors and swooned over the color woodgrain paper. Here is my kit for March:

Cruisin' Through Life

The papers: There is alot. 38 full sheets and a bunch of scraps along with a Paper pad I got at Christmas time.

Variety of Close ups:

I got a scrapbook kit on the ship so I added that to this kit.
