CKCB DT Blog Hop!

Happy November! If you are in the US I hope you voted! Today I am here to share what I counterfeited for this month. Our challenge was to counterfeit a collection we loved from Winter CHA releases. Well we all know I LOVE fall and scrap a LOT of photos in that color so I choose to go with Lily Bee Designs Autumn Spice. I LOVED the journal cards the most so I made a few of those. When you are done here please hop along to the wonderful JEMMA.

The tiny pad that I loved so much I almost bought!

I DROOLED OVER THESE!

My kit Happy Harvest

Papers

Purged my paper OH MY!

So yesterday the agenda said to sort/organize/label/purge the toy/play room; well I did not have the correct containers to do that so I decided to purge my paper instead. This is what I am packing up and selling! GOOD GRIEF! And the bad thing is I still have tons left ::blushes::!

Challenge TWO: Photo love

I must admit this one had me stumped for a few minutes. I love props but have a hard time getting decent pictures of my layouts. BUT since this layout was about us painting our pumpkins last year, I figured it would be gorgeous next to all my fall decor on the porch. It fits right in don't you think?

Challenge ONE: Quilt (CKCB)

Good morning! Today is the DT's reveal for challenge one at Counterfeit Kit Blog. Our challenge was to take QUILTS and let them inspire us. So I did blocks to represent the blocks on a quilt. How did you get inspired?

CKCB Morph Challenge

Good morning! I hope this finds you all well and enjoying the wonderful fall weather here in the states! Today I am here to share what we called "morph" challenge. The CKC designers all did awesome! I started the challenge so here is the inspiration layout, I would love for you to play along and link up your layout based on the one I post. Here we go!

I used all Simple Stories Summer Fresh in case you love it!. Now next up is Rebecca at HOW I BURB. When you finish the hop I would love to hear what you think and if you decide to play along please link me up!

WOOHOO! It is counterfeit kit time!

YAY! It is OCTOBER!!!! I love all the 'ber' months, but I have to admit OCTOBER is my favorite. We do so much this month-pumpkin patches, hay rides, trunk or treat, petting farms, trick or treating, festivals and so much more! So of course I HAD to make my kit FALL themed by copying the TYPE of pattern paper instead of my usual way of copying the colors/feel. I am really excited about this kit since it is mostly new to me product that I shopped for while on my hiatus. So without further ado here is FALL FEVER! When you get done oohing and aahing please hop on to the fabulous JEMMA!

Most of the papers are from Bella Blvd THANKFUL collection with a sprinkling of Echo Park. Lots of labels from October afternoon, MME, and Jillibean soup; some washi tape and bling finish off the embellishments. My letters are white foam thickers and corrugated pebble letters. I didn't add cardstock since I mostly use kraft, white, cream. I am sure I will pull more embellishments/scraps as I go through this kit this month.

$1.23 Fall wreath

So I wanted something to go on our door but everything I had was made of metal and with the wind these days it was rattling and loud. So I rummaged in my stash and came up with this. I used a dollar tree foam wreath cut in half, cheesecloth that we had on hand, glimmer mist/ink to change the color (from my scrapping stash), Tim Holtz Tattered floral die and some felt that I bought. I love it and it is NOT noisy! I wish it was a bit bigger but I had just enough cheesecloth so it is what it is.

CKCB Challenge 3-Negative space

Good morning. Today I am here to share the last challenge for CKCB for September. Can you believe it is almost OCTOBER!?! WOOHOO! I love fall! I am one happy girl right now.

Challenge three was all about using negative space. Well I have been eying and wanting to try a negative tag/banner title treatment so this was the perfect challenge to try it out! I cut the title banners with my Silhouette Cameo (still love that thing!) I can't wait to see what you come up with in the linky!

The layout that took me five days to finish!

I am sure it was longer but we will go with five days. Man it takes forever to do a layout when you are doing five minutes here and there BUT I love this one and had to share! The title not only used up tons of my black thickers/letter stickers (I tend to not use black for some reason) but was inspired by a country song I love. I was so excited when I flipped through the pictures from the first few weeks of baby N's life and found this one that my awesome husband took. It was perfect!

Challenge one CKCB

So challenge one was to use something from your stash that you used to love but don't so much anymore. Well that would be several things in mine but it is almost purge time so I went with some SMASH tabs that I HAD to have but have just been sitting there. I cut them up and used them as a border and to house my journaling! YAY that I got a challenge done!! WOOHOOO!
