The 'I Love It' Counterfeit Kit!

I hesitantly checked the Counterfeit Kit Challenge this morning for this month's inspiration kit - and I was absolutely thrilled with the kit for counterfeiting this month from Burlap & Buttercups.

I was so excited that I started on my kit straight away and initially pulled over thirty (!!!) pieces of patterned paper and cardstock. I finally managed to whittle that down to a main kit of sixteen pieces - larger than any of my other counterfeit kits. Obviously these are the colours I've been craving!

I've also added some Cosmo Cricket Tiny Types, a We Are Memory Keepers chipboard alpha set, gorgeous diecuts from The Girl's Paperie and some buttons from my stash. The cute lollipop flower, ribbon leaves and blue pin are all from Precocious Paper.

My fingers are literally itching to break into my new kit and start creating, but I'll definitely be visiting other counterfeiters to see how they've interpreted the kit. I think it's going to be a good month!

Just a note: I will visit everyone who posts a counterfeit kit this month - I love looking at the kits everyone puts together because it's always inspirational. But, Blogger still won't let me comment on all blogs (I'm still having trouble if you embed your comments.) I would comment if I could x

  9. Ooh, love the kit you've pulled together. I wasn't going to join in this month, as I have a busy month and still have some of last month's counterfeit kit to use, but your kit has inspired me! I'll have to make a page kit at least!

    Love the raindrop paper and cloud paper you've used, and the alphas. Fab collection! Can't wait to see what you do with it x
