Cindy's Creations: July Inspiration Kit and Social Media Hop

Welcome to July Counterfeit Kit - Inspiration Kit and Social Media Hop. Julene is the Master Forger in charge this month. She has decided to do a FLASH Back - take us back in time - to July 2014. In July 2014 Julene was also Master Forger in Charge and selected a kit from Noel Mignon - Balboa.

Here is Julene's post from July 2014 and the kit she forged here: Julene July 1 2014. Another Team member was Lynette - The Sassy Scrapper and her kit is here: The Sassy Scrapper.

Our Guest Designer is Kate Blue.

"I'm Kate Blue, your guest designer for July! When I saw the Noel Mignon Balboa kit, the first thing that caught my eye was the mix of bright bold colors with a splash of black. The second things were the prints- hearts, butterflies and polka dots. So that's where I started my kit, I was determined to use vintage paper stash as much as possible. I then kept my embellishments add-on kit somewhat small (for me anyway) focusing on butterflies, cards, frames, sparkly bits and lots of various alphas. And there you have my July kit; hope I'll inspire you as the month goes by!"

Please give Kate a warm welcome.

Kate has put together a awesome kit this month.

Here is my Kit - CKC July 2025 Waiting for Summer.

I started with paper from Capture Life both the Black and White and the Colored kits. I've used a few of the pages but I have not used one sticker from the sticker sheets - lots of embellishments there.

Then I have a few sheets from the Pink Fresh "Simply the Best", unknown papers, and 6x6 paper pad Shimelle "True Stories" and Jen Hadfield "Heart Home" and "DIY Home" and Crate Paper " Good Vibes". I have a few stamped images.

Now for the embellishments. I added in from Pink Fresh "Simply the Best" chipboard, stickers and die cuts. Pink Paislee "Bloom Street" embellishments.

Then I pulled in a few more tickets and labels, chipboard, ribbon and twine, a couple more butterflies another sticker book, and 4x6 and 3x5 journaling cards.

Now here's the blog hop or social media hop so you can check out our kits.
