Counterfeit Kit Challenge #2 - Sketch

Today is the Counterfeit Kit Challenge #2 where we are to use this sketch.

For my layouts I've used all of three different shades of the green pattern paper I included in my kit for the backgrounds on my layouts.

First up is my layout and I used the green damask paper. I did not like any of the flowers I included in my kit so I stamped and cut the Pressed Flowers 2 for the roses. I had included the Jenni Bowlin Oilcloth paper with those huge flowers. It was one of those pieces of paper I've had for years and just didn't know what to do with it. It provides a nice accent cut down and the flowers don't overpower the page.

The layout for my eldest  uses the green paper from Provo Crafts - Slab III and the "love" title from Patio Party.

The layout for my youngest is 8 1/2 x 11 and uses the paper from The Girls Paperie.

July Counterfeit Kit - Special Celebrations

Our Inspiration for July is the June 2019 Sweet Tea kit from Clique Kits which can be found here.

I started with the flower paper for my inspiration piece and it's an old one from Jeni Bowlin - Oilcloth. So my colors this month are on the darker side compared to the inspiration kit. I just couldn't find much that I liked much in the blue tones so I have very little of it here.

I started with the red wood grain from Simple Stories Wood and Gingham, white cardstock, yellow gold from the K& Company Dark Colors Basics, Jeni Bowlin - Oilcloth, Dark Blue cardstock, Studio Calico Transparency, Recollections Green Damask,Blue Honeycomb, DCWV Timeless Texture green paper, yellow cardstock, Recollections Red Demin Lines, Bella Blvd - Hello Beautiful, Yellow cardstock, Jen Hadfield Best of, Bella Blvd - Socialite,

Colorbok - Poolside, Embossed Gold, Green Cardstock, Vellum from the Paper Company, Provo Craft - the Slab III, Vellum from the Paper Company, The Girls Paperie, Pink Paislee, Gold paper and Photo Real.
Alphabet stickers from Jillibean Soup, Thickers - Gold Rush, Jewelry Box and Patio Party,
Embellishments: Lots of ribbon, buttons, frames, labels and arrows. I've added in some brads and die cuts along with a few left overs from various embellishments packs

I am again including my alphabet dies. I haven't figured out what stamp sets I want to include so I'm leaving that open. I also adding in the embellishment packs from the last couple of kits as I still have a few of them left.
