 I'm playing along this month with 30 Days of Sketches with Christy's Beautiful Life.   I went out of order on my first layout.  Here is my layout using the sketch for Day 8.

And here is the sketch for day 8.

The Boys of Summer

This month the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog is getting inspiration from the Paper Person "New Episode" kit.  Here is a picture of the kit.

The kit uses a few papers from the "Buenos Dias" collection by Obed Marshall.  I knew I had purchased a few papers from that collection so I decided to start there.  I had five papers and since I like keeping collections together I decided to use them all in my kit.  I love the orange, yellow, blue, aqua combo and thought it would be a good start for a boy kit.  Here are all the papers I pulled.

Next I added some embellishments.

Here are the things I counterfeited for my kit.  The first confetti paper I made (on the right) I didn't like.   So, I tried again and came up with the one on the left.  I stamped some labels.  And I loved Master Forger Kate's take on the circle project life card so I made some circles too.

Peanut Butter - Chocolate No Bake Cookies

 For Challenge #1 on the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog we needed to create a layout using an old family recipe.  I decided to also scraplift a layout that used the original Eat Play Love collection.  Here is my layout.

And here is the layout I scraplifted by Dot's Scrapbooking.

Phooey On Dogs

 Here is a layout I created today.

Forgeries on the 4th.

 I've always loved checking out the forgeries everyone comes up with for their kits on the .Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog.  This month to add to my counterfeit kit I created some forgeries of my own.  Looking at the 12 x 12 sticker sheet from the original Eat Play Love collection I was drawn to the mixing bowls, Family title and the circle stickers.

To forge the circle stickers I started by punching out several circles and scalloped circles.

I adhered them togetether and then on some I doodled, stamped or added a tiny heart.

Next I wanted to forge the mixing bowls.  To do this I punched out three circles in varying sizes.

I cut them in half-ish and doodled on a trim.

Then I simply stacked them at angles.

Finally, I wanted to forge the Family title.  I got out my Sizzix dies and cut out the word family.

Then I simply doodled a little design on each letter.
