August 2025 - Inspiration Kit Reveal and Social Media Hop!!!

 Welcome to August, our new Counterfeit Kit is here: It's the first of the month, and you know what that means....time to dive into a brand new Counterfeit Kit Challenge! Whether you're a long time participant or just discovering us, we are thrilled to have you join us as we kick off another inspiring month of creativity, inspiration, and kit creating.

For this month's inspiration kit, I have chosen Farmhouse Summer by Carta Bella, which captures the heart of country living with a homey palette and timeless design motifs. It's the perfect blend of rustic charm and fresh summer energy. 

Here are a few more photos of this collection.

 

As always, your challenge is to counterfeit or recreate this kit using your own supplies.

 

Now, I'd like to introduce you to our Guest Designer, Nadine Michelle from Paper Route Scrapbooking. 

 

Hi! I am Nadine, and I am honoured to be a guest designer for the Counterfeit Kit Community. I have been scrapbooking for over 25 years now, and I love how this creative outlet helps me to focus on all of the best parts of my life. I’ve been married for 28 years, have three grown children, and two amazing grandchildren. I enjoy sharing my love of scrapbooking on my YouTube channel “Paper Route Scrapbooking” as well as by teaching at my local scrapbook store. Happy Scrapping Friends!

Here is Nadine's Kit 

 

Wow! Great kit Nadine!
