September 2023 - Counterfeit Kit Challenge Inspiration Kit Reveal & Hop

 Wow the year is really flying by and look we're into doing September's kit already! Kids are back to school, the brrrr months are beginning and the holidays are just around the corner. It's that time of the year that Fall is coming into play here in the States but over yonder it's beginning to be a bit of Springtime so the kit I chosen should fit with either season :)

I've chosen a kit from the (Not) Just for Boys Kit Club its a retired kit from this past year. It has a bit of a masculine feel with no pink involved :) It also has a few of my favorite colors in it and some neutrals too.

This is what they say about the kit: "Combines green, teal, and purple hues, just like the Aurora Borealis, with some darker navy shades, making it perfect to document springtime moments with a masculine feel."










I'm focusing on their Main Kit:

We are delighted to have Jennifer Croasdale join us this month as our Guest Designer


Hi, I'm Jen and I'm glad to be joining you this month. I have been scrapbooking since 1996 when my sister showed me her album. Patterned paper is my favorite supply, but I love everything scrapbooking. I live in NJ with my husband, Fred. We have two grown daughters and three grandkids. Most of my layouts are about travel or family. I am inspired by challenges and look forward to this fun month of scrapping with you.
