Counterfeit Kit Club Challenge #1: Pick a challenge...any challenge! Pick your favorite challenge going on right now on any other blog (could be non scrappy related, too)

My favorite challenge going on now.  Wow there are so many but I like one in particular that is actually three challenges in one.  It is three very talented ladies that call themselves The Scrappy Friends. The sketch challenge is by Brenda Ragsdale at http://granddivasscrappyplace.blogspot.com/, a tic tac toe challenge by Rochelle Spears at http://rochellespears.blogspot.com/, and a word challenge by Kelly at http://www.creatingwithpaperandmore.blogspot.com/. It makes it interesting to make a layout while following all the rules and when you are finished you not only have a lovely layout but had lots of fun making it while challenging yourself to get out of your comfort zone.  Something I really like to do so that my layouts don't all look the same to me.  I tried to stick to the sketch pretty closely.  I used the bottom horizontal row of the tic tac toe challenge (date stamp, thickers, and mist), and I used the word spring on my layout.  Hope this inspires you to play along with our challenge (http://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.com/) this time as well as other challenges out there on the web.

  3. Fabulous way to combine all three challenges in one layout! Your layout is so full of lovely spring colors and I especially like the way the papers "fan" out in the bottom right corner.
