My March Counterfeit Kit - Blog Hop Reveal!

Hello and welcome to the reveal of the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog Design Team's Kits for March! You should have arrived here via Jemma at Just Jimjams, and your journey will take you onwards after you've taken a peek at my March kit!

(Edited to add: I mention below that the tutorials for the handmade embellies will be posted on the 2nd of March, but due to slight technical problems and slight me-running-out-of-time, the tutorials will be posted on the 4th of March instead. Sorry!)

This month we're counterfeiting the lovely Soda Shoppe Kit by Noel Mignon. Their kit was full of happy colours, feathers, flowers, owls, butterflies, bunting, and more! 

Here's my version:


I just love the eclectic assortment of bits and bobs in this kit, and the colours are so sweet - they make me think of ice-creams!

Here are my papers and alphas: 


12x12 Papers: Pebbles Walnut Grove 'Eliza Jane', Crate Paper Storyteller 'Chapter' and Fourteen 'Cupid', WRMK Madame Royale 'Elisabeth', Bo Bunny Love Bandit 'Birdie Die Cut', My Mind's Eye Stella & Rose 'Buddies', Echo Park Note To Self 'Arrows', Doddlebug Design 'Word 4 Word', Making Memories 'Die Cut Artisan Flower Patch', Echo Park For the Record 2 'Tailored Journaling Cards'.

6x6 Papers: Bazzill Basics Papers Wayfarer, Studio Calico Hey Day, Pink Paislee Spring Jubilee, Crate Paper Random, and Papermania Happy Days.

Alphas: 'Salutations - Pink' Fabric Thickers, Glitz 'White' Teeny Alphas, Making Memories Noteworthy 'Ava' Shimmer Alpha Stickers, Sassafras 'Slate' Cardstock Alphas.

Here are most of the embellishments (minus the handmade ones which can be seen below):

Phew! What a lot of embellishments. But apparently I still didn't think I had enough, as I handmade some more!

Handmade Embellishments:   

There will be more details on these, including tutorials for the feathers and straws, posted here tomorrow (2nd 4th March instead - sorry for the delay).

 So what do you think? Just looking at this kit makes me feel happy. I am looking forward to using it on lots of pretty projects!

Now that you've seen my kit, it's time to hop along to Julie at His Glory Girl to see what kit she's put together. If you get lost at all, then here's the full hop list:
