October Counterfeit Kit

I will admit it.  I have done NO scrapping lately.  I have had a nasty cold that keep threatening to turn into something more serious and is just leaving me drained.  I hate being tired all the time.  I hate not being able to sleep.  I hate not feeling like creating.

Okay.  I'm done pouting now. 

I did get my October Kit done!  I had SO much trouble with this one!  I pulled paper and ut them back...and pulled more and put them back.  I finally put EVERYTHING away and started over. 

Our new kit to Counterfeit is posted on the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog right now!!  Why are you still hanging out here?  Go look at the kit we picked!  Go on...I'll wait, but come right back.

We have a great line up of Counterfeit Kits to inspire you this month!  Our lovely Guest Designer Katie Scott is starting us off for the hop.  Here is the entire list in case you got a bit turned around.

Whew!  Now that you have been informed and redirected, would you like to see what I made?

 

 

 Even though I had trouble to start with, I really like how this kit came out...

 

I think I will use these more for layering than journaling...



 

I'm pretty proud of the papers I assembled.  There are a few that I would swap out if I could, but most of them are great!

 

Let's see how much of the washi, twine and ribbon I get around to using.  I usually forget.  LOL

 

So many fun pieces to layer!  I will have a hard time covering some of them up!

I love these stickers!  So many fun patterns and shapes!



 

How cute are these flowers?  I have the things to make my own, but have been a chicken about it.  I am very into date stamps right now, too.  Love this one from Dear Lizzy!

I have been SO inspired lately by one of Glitter Girl (Shimelle)'s videos on 2 Peas that I just have to share it with you!

 

Cluster Combinations

 

 

Many of the things I pulled for my kit were based on their ability to layer nicely.  I have been loving this technique and hope to show you some examples soon! 

 

I hope you get some time to hang out with us some this month!  And I hope I feel up to scrapping soon!
