Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog Hop


Happy Monday! I am so excited to start this week off by welcoming you to the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog Hop for March! This month's challenge was to use your kit to scraplift yourself.

As I was looking back through my layouts there is one design that I absolutely love and I believe it is going to become my new go-to layout. I'm a huge fan of clean and simple pages and this design is so easy to pull together. I went with my Mossy Knoll Add-On counterfeit kit because I'm working on my Aruba photos and this kit had a lot of the blues I needed.

Here my ingredients:

Paper: DCWV Summer Dream stack -I used the front and back sides.

Letters: American Crafts Thickers - Rockabye

Postcard: Taken off a set of Ann Taylor Loft pajamas

Random buttons, ribbon, bling and chipboard

Thanks for stopping by! Hop on over to Margie's next and see what she has created with her Counterfeit Kit!
