This reminded me so much of a kit we did in May 2021. I guess what goes around comes around.

My Kit
KITCHEN CAPERS

That fact made me start in a weird way. I had some brads left from that previous time, so started by finding those.
There are teapot, cup, measuring jug, cookie jar. Plus, several red and black round or square brads.

Next, 
 I looked for papers


I matched as best I could. There's papers with lobsters, carrots and pineapples!

I also had some fruity 6x6 papers

There are strawberries, raspberries, apples and cherries.


My embellishments contain quite a mixture.

I include the Simple stories stickers "Hello Summer" as I'm still scrapping cruise photos.

There are some journal tags I made using the fruit papers, red lolly bags, a darkroom door lolly strip, old fashioned lace with ribbon threaded through it, a cupcake sticker and doileys.



It should be an interesting month.

A big welcome to our guest designer, Debbie Barton.

I am very honored and excited to guest design for May’s Counterfeit Kit Challenge! Scrapbooking, to me, is not only a challenge and stress reliever, but a happy way to remember and put on paper the joys, challenges, and fun in my daily life.

When I began scrapbooking, in the 70’s & 80’s for school memories, the big thing was cutting out pictures and gluing them into photo albums. I then thought that adding stickers and cutting out frames really made my books super special. Putting as many pictures and stickers as possible on a page was the best. And who didn’t love a collage! ;0

I stopped scrapping while raising 2 kids, getting my Music Education degree and my Masters in Music. I taught choir and music for quite a time and just loved my students. After retirement, my hubby and I moved to SC in 2016. We played at living on the lake with swimming, boating and just relaxing for a bit along the way. We traveled when we could and enjoyed the “big” (boring?) retirement life, esp in 2020. I was blessed to discover several online scrapping groups which were actually not only sanity savers but life savers. When I was able to travel to crops and classes, I jumped on board and now have to remember to stay home. I have taken classes with so many amazing teachers. Totally crafty heaven! Recently I have been given a chance to be on a creative team with the wonderful ScrapHappy Team. Great ladies. So many ideas and talents.

I enjoy working on both new and old mixed media techniques and learning new ways to work with my paper products. I recently realized that I do not need every new & sparkly thing. I can make my own papers and embellies! What a fabulous discovery! I hope you are enjoying this month’s challenges!
