CKCB Guest Designer (ME!) and a BLOG HOP!! {LONG POST}
Sometimes mail goes to my SPAM folder...thank goodness I don't automatically delete them cause lo & behold, there was one from Meridy asking me to the be the Guest Designer (Counterfeiter) for the April Counterfeit Kit Blog Challenge!! Of course I said YES!! If you've never heard of the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog, well, it's a blog where they choose a kit from a popular kit club (for inspiration) and
challenge YOU to create a "counterfeit kit" using supplies you
already own! To introduce the inspiration kit, we do a HOP to inspire you! As the APRIL GDT I'm up first so you gotta read (and ooh and aaah) over all the deets!
April's kit to counterfeit comes courtesy of GOSSAMER BLUE (love them) and of course I loved their kit right away! I'm a big fan of yellow, teal and flair so....
I really searched for striped paper but it seems like I had none so I stuck with the colors :)
* I'll repost my kit w/ the details tomorrow but know that the Awesome printables are courtesy of Tiina from Miss Tiina.com in case you wanna go print some stuff now for your kit. I don't do PL so I had to find some free printables!
AND, since I'm the Guest Counterfeiter, I HAD to do my version of the Add-on Kit!
THEIRS:
MINE:
paper hoarder here so I have 3 6x6 packs to pick from |
Easy right??? Next on the stop is Andrea P from Snapping Monsters !!
LET'S HOP so you can see what the DT has done!
In addition to our "counterfeit" challenge, we will also include a few other challenges (to actually USE these kits), tutorials, and another blog hop toward the end of the month for everyone to SHARE their "counterfeit kits" and their creations with us! Happy Hopping !
