This month's Counterfeit Kit Challenge challenge features the May 2022 Kit from Citrus Twist Kits. It's a great kit but has a heavy travel theme which isn't really useful to me at the moment. I haven't really done any traveling since before Covid shocked the world. So I drew inspiration from the color palette and some of the icons and elements found in the patterned papers and embellishments.
I actually have some of the Pink Fresh Studios Life Right Now collection 6x6 papers, die cuts, and enamel dots so I started building my kit around my little stash. I added a few sheets of 12x12 Echo Park & Carta Bella patterned paper, a sheet of 12x12 patterned vellum, and a few sheets of 12x12 cardstock. I also added some doilies, enamel dots, some labels, buttons, paper flowers, and misc embellishments from my stash. I plan to create a few traveler or "junk" style journals this month, so I kept that in mind while building my kit.
I included extra sheets of 8 1/2 x11 cardstock, some ribbon and stretchy cord to make the journals. I might pull out my laminator and my sewing machine. Oh! and some eyelets! I really don't have any specific plans other than to make them! LOL
These are some of the alphabet stamps I'm planning to use. I'm also planning to use some additional stamps, dies, punches, ink pads, stencils, texture pastes, and paints or some other coloring medium not pictured.
