 Welcome to June's Counterfeit Kit and Social Media Hop. Laurie is the Master Forger in charge this month. As usual the full hop is listed below. She has Selected the 49 and Market Vintage Artistry Sunburst Collection for our Inspiration kit. 

Our Guest Designer this month is Mel Walkden, and here is her introduction: "Hi my name is Mel Walkden. Have been married for 24 years this year and have 1 daughter. I have been Scrapbooking for about 29 years now. I dabble in card making. I love bright colours and trying out different techniques with Mixed Media. I'm a stay-at-home mum, so only 1 wage I don't get to buy too much product, and am a huge believer in use what you have and use those scraps up."

Now for more about our inspiration Kit:Vintage Artistry Sunburst - 49 and Market






Here is my Kit: CKC June 2024 - Bright and Bold

I pulled my together a little differently this month. I love the colors in the kit and started by pulling in my distressed papers and hard to use papers, at least the ones I find hard to use,

Group 1:


Group 2:

From there I divided them into page sets. Again, I'm scrapping most of the layouts 3 different times. I actually added in my photos to my page sets and have a couple of titles already made. 

Page Set I:



The car paper is from We R Memory Keepers - Travel Light (2011). The stickers and font is from the same paper pad. I included hearts and a Unity Stamp set for the Sandcastle, as Derek is playing in the sand. this will be a double page layout. 

Page Set #2:

This is from DCWV Animal Crackers (2008). It has glitter and embossing on the papers. I thought this would be great for a trip we took to the petting zoo. The stickers are from the same paper pad, I pulled in some die cut flowers for the second page of the layouts. 

Page Set 3:


Another set of papers from We R Memory Keepers - Travel Light (2011). The title is from the same set along with the little fonts. I added in some puffy hearts.

Page set 4:


This paper is Summer Garden 12x12 Die Cut sheets. I'm assuming it is around 2009 or 2009 from archivers. I added a doily sheet from Stampin' Up, Butterflies and hears that I die cut, a couple of vellum butterflies, arrows and a couple of flowers.

Page set 5:

I've had this green piece of Acetate in my stash forever. I have a scrap of green stripe and white cardstock for this layout. I love the look of acetate but find it hard to use. 

Page Set 6:


For this page set I have embossed and glitter pattern paper that is a little bit distressed. I pulled in a sheet of distressed red paper a die cut branch. 

Thank you for stopping by. 

You should have made it to everyone on the list.

I like the way your items are organised into page sets. It makes sense! A delightful mix of beautiful colours here. Enjoy your kit Cindy.
