 Here's a reminder of our inspiration kit:

Let's see what the Design Team has counterfeited!

Master Forger Leslie tackled a few of the papers:

Added one more at the last minute!

Master Forger Julene use cold tea painted over a black and white printed paper to replicate the paper top left. Simple idea but it works!

Master Forger Kate decided to use the leaves in the collection to make her own loose watercolor leaves:

MF Lisa found a great website - Caluya Design - offering a huge array of SVG files and there are a lot of freebies there too - check out this link Caluya Design.

And over at A Country Girl's Life, she found a great tutorial for making your own stickers with or without a die cutting machine. See this post here

At Fynes Designs, she tracked down a set of free floral cluster SVG files, designed to make layered floral groupings - very á la Paige Evans! There's a tutorial to go with it too. Fynes Designs Floral Decals for Silhouette 

MF Misty was also inspired by leaves, specifically the ones in the chipboard. But she wanted to brighten up the color palette.

Stacked and glued leaf die cuts and some ink created the base of the project. Then a two-way glue pen (Quickie Glue pen) and some foil (Deco Foil) spruced up these embellishments.

Last but not least, don't forget that if you sign up for Paige Evans newsletter, she includes a free die-cutting file in each edition!
