Snippet: Counterfeit Kit Challenge & Design Seeds Preview

My lovely friend Brenda over at The Imperfect Scrapper found a great blog called the Counterfeit Kit Challenge. The goal over at The Counterfeit Kit Challenge is to use your own supplies to create an amazing kit! Why buy more, when you have TONS of stuff already?

Their kit used a great kit from Sweet Peach Crop Shop's September 2011.

While it is completely cute and lovely... It's a lot of Sassafras Lass. Sass that I don't have. While I could just toss a bunch of Sass in and call it a day, I wouldn't go the easy route. When do I ever do that? So... I found a piece of paper that I love, but was challenging me... And was floral. Which I hardly EVER use!

I then matched the colors with a great color palette from Design Seeds that I found on Pinterest.

I ended up including quite a bit of yellow and green. Again, colors I don't use a lot of. My kit includes 8 pieces of "cardstock", 14 pieces of patterned paper, a mini chipboard book that I have NO idea what to do with, 2 mists, a handful of ribbon, chipboards, alphas, twine, wood veneer, brads, tags, and a few more embellishments. Okay, so a couple of "add-on" kits...

I'll post my own pics tomorrow!! Pin It
