CKC July ’22

I love kit building and I am on the design team for the Counterfeit Kit Challenge project. We take an inspiration kit each month and proceed to replicate it, or as we say, counterfeit it. This is a free, friendly group that helps inspire you to use up supplies you already own. We are not about needing to buy the latest and greatest thing (though we won’t stop you if you enjoy new crafty goodies😉 ).

June sure went by in a whirlwind and I can’t believe it is July already. So glad I got this post up in time! Here is the full video experience, or you can read on for the quick overview.

Our Inspiration kit this month is the May Round Trip 12×12 add-on kit from Citrus Twist Kits. Before we dive in too much further, let’s give a warm welcome to Clem Reid as our guest designer this month. You can find her take on this kit, as well as all the other team members from the hop links below. Now on with the show…

With this inspiration in mind I pulled a variety of stuff from my stash, organized it all, and then narrowed it down. Here are the three categories of papers I put in my kit: A side inspired, B side inspired, and “filler” papers.

The overall paper view

Moving on to embellishments… I had the Pink Fresh Titles ephemera directly from the inspiration kit. Then I just added other elements such as travel, homey icons, enamel dots and tags.

Embellishments

There is a tradition over at CKC of titling our kits just like companies do. So I’m calling mine StayCation for the mix of travel and homey icons.

I hope you can follow along with the other designers and see how they put together their kits.

Here’s the full hop link list

Have fun kit building and don’t forget to show off your stuff over on the CKC Facebook group, or tag us on Instagram @counterfeitkitchallenge or use #counterfeitkitchallenge.
