March 2021 - Counterfeit Kit Challenge Kit Reveal & Blog Hop

Hello lovelies! Welcome to the March 2021 Counterfeit Kit Challenge Kit Reveal & Blog Hop! I love to take the reins here at the Counterfeit Kit Challenge in March, when the world starts to feel just that little bit warmer and the first little leaves start to show themselves after winter. And, normally, my kit choice for the month would also feature a lot of lovely leaves and florals but, this month's inspiration kit is a little bit different! It's the beautiful Paper Addict Kit from Mommyish - and it's digital!

I love the bold colours, easy to 'counterfeit' embellishments and, of course, the theme. What scrapbooker could resist a kit about an addiction to pretty paper?! Let's have a closer look at the kit contents.

This month our Guest Designer is the wonderful Julie Kirk. I've followed Julie's work for ... ooh ... let's just say a while now and adore her ability to look at the mundane and find the beauty in it! You'll never look at junk mail in the same way! Please make sure to offer her a warm welcome to the world of counterfeit kits! 

"Hello, I’m Julie and, as the t-shirt might suggest, I’m from beautiful Teesside, in the North East of England.

I started scrapbooking in the early 2000s, spent over a decade designing layouts and projects for craft magazines and design teams and, along the way, stopped scrapbooking just for me. Now I’ve come full circle and playing with paper and scissors is once again purely a hobby. As a lifelong paper and stationery lover I feel spoiled being asked to counterfeit for this particular month’ with its ‘Paper Addict’ theme! 

When I’m not ogling paper and stationery, you can find me obsessively reading contemporary romance novels, watching baseball games on Youtube, and talking about all of those things on Instagram. I’m @WithJulieKirk over there and you’re *so* welcome to drop by and say 'Hi' sometime."

Let's take a look at Julie's kit for the month, then take a little hop around with the rest of the DT.
