The Amalfi Road counterfiet kit - September 2022


I think it's been years since I played along with Counterfeit Kit Challenge, I nearly forgot how how much fun it is to 'shop' your own products and build a kit, adding some handmade counterfeited items.

This month CKC blog are countefeiting a digital kit - Wildflower by Traci Reed:


This kit is full of beautiful papers and embellies, in one of my all time fav color combo - green, blue and yeallow. No pink, no red, no purple at all!

Look at all the beautiful papers (20 papers in the kit!):

Like always, I start with the colors - blue, yeallow and green. Then I write down the patterns that coaught my eyes - flowers (daisies!), hearts, leaves, stripes, woodgrain, butterflies, plaid, hexagons, diamonds. The final stage is looking at the embellies - well, there're so many beautiful ones here!

So I picked patterned papers in the kit's colors (then I had to reduce the ammount...LOL), with flowers, daisies, butterflies, plaid, woodgrain and stripes:



I also counterfeited some journaling cards, with pp, stamps, stickers and some fussy cuts:


I added large alpha stickers in navy, ephemera pieces, and some 6X6 pp.
I will probably add enamel dots, some more stickers and handmade embellishments, as I work with this kit.

I plan to use this kit for making a mini album about a journey I had with my son at Italy last March. We were in the sudden part of Italy, mostly in the Amalfi coast, so I named my kit 'The Amalfi Road kit'.

So Fab - June Counterfeit Kit Challenge

June counterfeit kit challenge is based on May 2019 Hip Kit Club:
I was inspired by some of the colors, the whimsical feeling, and by some of the patterns (florals, stripes, watercolor strokes). I also wanted to use 6x6 papers and scraps I've had for very long time.
So here's my kit - So Fab:
And now let's have a look into the kit:
First - 12 x 12 papers:
Add on - papers - craps and 6 x6 papers:
Embellishmet - lots of stickers, tags, ephemera, journaling cards:
And I also counterfeited some of the items in the inspiration kit - I've made a vellum paper with gold embossing:
Some beautiful bows and tabs from pp:
 tags, labels and circles:
foam embellies, this is my fav on this kit - I stamped on a white thin foam, and backed it with double sided tape, and so I have my own 'puffy' embellies:
I made some watercolor style strokes, and two rainbows, using some Lindy's Gang sprays on a watercolor paper, and also made some vellum phrases, using Lindy's embossing powders:
And here's my full kit, all packed and ready to use (I sneaked in some enamel dots and washi tapes):
I'm already working on my first project from this kit, and hope to finish it no later then Sunday :).
