June Counterfeit Kit: Summer Sketch Challenge



I admit, when I first saw the summer sketch challenge I thought there is no way I can do that. It looked so complex with all those little pieces. Not only that, but I always use 4x6 photos. I have this mental hurdle when it comes to cutting photos down to a smaller scale. However, I had some duplicate copies of some summer photos and I decided to take a chance. I'm glad I did! This challenge was so ridiculously fun. I had a blast measuring, layering and choosing from my summer papers. This layout is a reminder to me that it is ok to step outside the comfort zone every now and then and see what else is going on out there!
