Welcome everyone to the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog Hop!!
The hop started over at the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog and if you get lost you can see the full list of participants back there. I found this great site after visiting Sian's blog, I really love the idea of making up an alternative to a currently available kit, though I haven't taken part yet, I will do, as I have so much to use up in my stash!
Hopefully you have come here from Bethany's amazing blog, I've just become a follower! I am the last stop on the blog hop journey, so I hope you have enjoyed seeing all the creations taken from this sketch. I am so excited to be part of the hopping as this fantastic sketch from Scraps of Darkness finally got me scrapping again!! I did flip the image, substituted an alternative shape instead of the circle, tweeked here and there, but my page is based on this sketch.
It took me a while to decide which photograph to use, as I have so many waiting to be used in a layout. In the end I chose one that I thought would work well with flowers! The overall look is very girlie, which is not what I would consider a natural style for me, as in real life I tend to be a bit of a tom boy and 'I don't do pink'!! I was really pleased to use up several things that have been in my stash for ages, I really need to have a good sort out (completing a few Counterfeit Kits would probably help!)
This is a close up of the photograph as it is difficult to see in the previous image and I love the little peg in the corner with the pink flower, it is so cute!
Thanks for visiting my blog and joining in with all the fun. I hope to be joining in a lot more with Counterfeit Kit Challenges so watch this space! xxx
Nice table and yep lovely view. Congrats on getting so much pink on a page, I struggled with that too. I like the flowers wandering up the page framing the journaling spot. Makes me think of a flower border in the garden.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous view and I think you used pink and purple very well! Great job!
