Hi there,
and welcome to June Challenge #3 at the
Counterfeit Kit Challenge! The prompt is "Old is New Again: Showcase the oldest item in your kit in a new & fresh way!"
My oldest items were the floral papers from The Sweet Blossom Stack by Die Cuts with a View: one 12x12 paper and a 12x12 that has tags in different sizes.
I picked three other papers in shades of aqua/mint green/teal. I cut the solid mint green cardstock in half to make a 6x6 card.
This was the perfect moment to open the Studio Calico wood veneer package I got recently...
I was once again crafting at night so I didn't get to take process pictures, I'm afraid. But here's the finished card!
In addition to the papers and wood veneer, I used stamping inks, 7 Dots Studio Alpha Stickers, Geometric Neon Washi tape from Papermania Docrafts Capsule collection and Liquid Pearls glue paint in Mint Green.
Although I didn't have any of their papers this time, just the alphabet, I was also inspired by the
Gardening challenge at the 7 Dots Studio blog!
Another challenge theme that inspired me was Berries at
Studio Leto.
I'm really happy with how the fuzzy cut painterly flower and branch look in the card! The paper was restless to use as such, and that's probably why I hadn't used it. It definitely needed a new and fresh look from this challenge!
For those of you who aren't familiar with the The Counterfeit Kit Challenge, it's is all about putting together our own kits from what we have, inspired by actual kit club kits. I'm happy to be their Guest Designer this month and got to Counterfeit the
May kit from Hip Kit Club. If you want to see what else I included in my kit,
it's here!
Thank you so much to
Leslie and the team at
Counterfeit Kit Challenge for inviting me as the June 2016 Guest Designer! It has been a lot of fun and I continue to be inspired by the kit I created. A ready made kit is also very easy to take with me when I spend some summer weeks in the countryside, so that's an extra plus side!
Thank you for coming and hope to see you again soon!
So DELIGHTED to have you as our special guest this month on the CKC Design Team! I have had my kit along with me in the car as we travel & it makes a road trip that much more fun.
ReplyDeleteThis card really does make that paper shine! Just beautiful. Now I must eat berries :D
I am not a big fussy cutter Salla but recently have found it quite therapeutic. You have used that over facing paper well. Thank you for joining us for this month and glad you've had fun. Enjoy those weeks away with your Counterfeit Kits!
