March Kit.. 'Sunny Spring'


Hi all 

After a long absence due to two operations and a house move, I'm finally back in the blogging 'saddle' and am delighted to get back into it via the Counterfeit Kit challenge blog

To this end I have chosen a kit I have called 'Sunny Spring'. On first inspection of the kit from A Piece of Cake Designs, January Cupcake Kit .. I really noticed a lot of pink and aqua blue.. which as anyone that knows me knows, aqua is one of my favourite scrapbooking colours. 


So I set about choosing my papers based around those colours. On reflection, I can now see that the pink in the kit was actually the background that the kit was displayed on.. rather than it actually containing any pink! Doh! 


However, my decisions were made and I stuck with it. As it's my first kit for a while, I decided not to make it too big and these are the papers I selected.

I added some stickers too and replaced the hot air balloons with some bicycles instead... there is also a page of wood effect paper tucked in there too.

I also picked out a choice of alphas to complement the papers and then added some embellishments and two gelatos to finish it off. 

I have no doubt that I will add card stock and maybe even more embellishments but here it is for now.. 'Sunny Spring'.














It's good to be back... I do hope my followers haven't deserted me in my absence! 

If you want to see what I've been up to in my absence, scroll on to the post below that I did earlier today.

Cheers!
