July 2023 - Counterfeit Kit Challenge & Blog Hop

Master Forger of Ceremonies Leslie here, your Counterfeit Kit Challenge host for the month of July. 

Before we take a look at our inspiration kit I'd like you to meet our Guest Designer - a familiar face in our community! Dawn is a wonderfully prolific creative & an active member of the CKC family.

My name is DawnLyn Litz. I'm a single Mom to two adults, Autism Mom, Christian, Army Veteran, Paper Craft Artist & Owner of DawnLyn's Designs, Fibromyalgia Warrior, book lover, chocoholic, Mary Kay Consultant, and Educational Advocate & Behavioral Specialist Constant, and gym fanatic.

I love the CKC community because they are friendly and supportive of goals. I came to the group at the end of January and loved the idea of making a kit that I jumped into kit making in February. Last month I created 33 layouts with my kit.

I chose our inspiration kit because it is a BRAND NEW KIT CLUB! Mercy Tiara is likely a familiar name to scrapbookers & May was her first kit offer. It is a bright, playful & funky kit thanks to a focus on Jen Hadfield's Flower Child collection. Vicki Boutin's Where To Next?, Maggie Holmes' Woodland Grove, and Pink Fresh Studio's Spring Vibes all play supporting roles.

Come back tomorrow for our "Just the Gist of It" post that gives an insightful break down of the inspiration kit vibe. "Forgery on the Fourth" shows ideas to craft your own version of kit elements.
