070419 CKC Forgery on the Fourth

Counterfeit Kit Challenge

It is no crime to create your own version of the trendy,

hip products from the inspiration kit using your own stash & ingenuity.

Tina's inspiration kit this month is the Clique Kit June 2019 Main Kit.

I forged this Heidi Swapp - Emerson Lane/Old School paper and some flowers.

I L-O-V-E this paper!

But I didn't want to work quite that hard...

I used this Webster's Pages - My Happy Place/Pretty Plaid wood grain as my base.

Using an assortment of 6x6 papers from these pads 

I loved all the dimension in the original.

 I cut squares to fill the empty diamonds.

I meant to ink their edges but forgot!

I also did a quick job of forging a few flowers. 

I simply stamped a grid for a little textural interest & added a blingy center.
