CKCB KIT - LAYOUT 1

Morning all, well here is my first layout from this month's Counterfeit Kit.

I started with a pretty base paper, added blocks of colour, some washi tape, one of those frames I made, some hand stitching and a sticker.

Photo of said 14 year old stood on the stepping stones at Harewood!

Happy Scrapping everyone!

COUNTERFEIT KIT - LAYOUTS 7 8 AND 9

Evening all more layouts using my kit, I haven't managed any more layouts since my first flurry which I must admit I need to remedy later.

First up a really fun layout, I got a new butterfly punch which I really like, I used the 'negative at the bottom and stuck the cut outs at the top!

 Up close how pretty are these

And here are the negatives

Another layout using some of the grey papers

and the last one said 14 year old and said niece standing on the rocking stone at Chatsworth!

COUNTERFEIT KIT CHALLENGE BLOG HOP! LAYOUTS 24 + 25 + 26

Good morning well after lots of fighting with emails and thankfully having the fabulous Lesley from the CKCB design team to help me out, I got the email so I could join in with this month's blog hop.  It would appear that there have been some email issues and despite searching for why - I've not found anything that would prevent me receiving them grrrrrrrrrrr.  So if you've sent emails to which I haven't replied I can only apologise and say - it's because I never got them.

But I digress away from the subject of the blog hop, you should have arrived here from the fabulous aforementioned Lesley's blog http://ohblogitifyoucantbeatthem.blogspot.co.uk These hops are lovely to see how everyone interpreted the challenges there were three challenges in total so here is my take on the challenges.

Challenge #1 - Tone on Tone challenge, using tones of the same colour on your background, I had loads of fun with this one using up lots in the kit too!

This photo was of an art installation at Cragside that we saw last year, it was fabulous, a projected image inside a glass like vase, the installation had sound effects including rain and lightening that it went through in a cycle!

Challenge #2 - Was a sketch challenge - and if I'm honest I really fought with this one - no idea why!
It isn't perfectly the same as the sketch but it generally looks like it should if you know what I mean.

The photo was of the chapel windows that we stayed in last year, I loved the reflection!

Finally Challenge #3 - Line it Up

Arranging embellishments in rows, I lined up the hearts on the layout.

This layout shows hubby and said 13 year old when we visited Portmeirion last year, it's one of those repeat in later year photos, I've got a picture of said 13 year old when he was about 4 in the same position and pose!
