August Counterfeit Kit - For the Guys.

The inspiration for the August Counterfeit Kit is from Gossamer Blue. I love the colors in this kit - great for guy pages, nice tone on tones and darker colors.

Here's my first set of papers - I pick mostly tone on tone papers.

 

 

Colorbok - Mint Julep, Rhonna Farrer, Green Cardstock, Colorbok - Poolside, Colorbok Delilah, Black Cardstock, Reminisce -Real Magic "Firework Spectacular, Unknown Green and PSX Golf Swing,

 

I did download the word stickers that Lisa had as part of her forgeries. Then I pulled three stamps and die sets from Papertrey Ink - Monthly Moments Tabbed and Slide Frame and A Few Pointers. I thought they were a perfect match to the sticker sheet.

For the second set of papers I have scraps from three paper pads - DCWV - Sky's the Limit, Sunday Afternoon and Sweet Tangerine stacks. I want to turn them into a mini album or two - there is at least and 1" of scraps and a few scrap pieces of cardstock. After I make the mini's I'm done with this set of papers.

My last set of paper I pulled have the dark blues orange and red in them. Paper that I thought would be good for some guy layouts. These are papers that I only have one sheet of so I will have to pull cardstock into the pages more than normal and will probably not be able to make similar pages in 8 1/2 x11 and 12x12.

Cherry Arte - Girl Power, Little Yellow Bicycle - Life Collection "Board Shorts Orange", "Wipe Out Orange", "Regatta"; Basic Grey - Mellow :Savory"; Scenic Route - Kraft Spinner, Kraft Surf Board and Kraft Surf Leaf; Little Yellow Bicycle - Life Collection "Ride the Wave" and "Wipe Out Blue"; Creative Imaginations - 2 unknown names; Little Yellow Bicycle - Life Collection "Gears" and "Skate Park Stripe"; and lastly Creative Imaginations - Red Banner.

I had a couple of extra large alphabets from Pink Paislee - Weathered Wood in Denim and Scarlet and ribbon to match along with a sticker sheet from 7 gypsies.

 

Then I pulled a few embellishments: buttons, flowers, more ribbon, tags, a few pieces of chipboard and a chipboard mini "mini" album - its 3 1/2" x 3 3/4".

Thanks for stopping by. Don't forget to head over to the Counterfeit Kit Challenge, as they have already posted their forgeries.
