12x12 Traditional Paper Layout

Today's layout was inspired by a favorite Scrapbooking blog, but in a different way.

If you recall I used to frequently play along w/ a blog called the "Counterfeit Kit Challenge" blog.
Though I have wanted to play along, I just haven't found the time to this year.

I don't have time to create and photograph a kit, nor do I have time to put all the unused items from my kit neatly back into my stash.
But the other day I was inspired by another way to play.

This was copied and pasted from a recent post of theirs:

"Are you feeling overwhelmed by the idea of a big kit this month?Perhaps you just want to pull together a few products to get those creative juices flowing again.
Maybe a mini kit is the answer!

A mini kit can be a smaller version of the main kit, or a small kit specifically curated for use as a page kit, card-making, a mini album, pocket scrapbooking or planning. Whatever works best for you! We are all about using up our supplies so whatever fits into your schedule - you can use the mini kit option at any time you like!

Susan decided to try something a little different this month - she looked to the mood board, released as a "sneak peek" just before the beginning of each month, as inspiration for her August mini kit. Here's the mood board"
(see 3rd Slide).


A smaller kit and the mood board is what motivated me to finally scrap some photos from my Boston/Maine vacation last year.
Hey, only 1 year behind? Not bad, LOL

- If you don't know I love taking photos of my vacations but hate scrapping photos of my vacations... too many photos! #Overwhelmed

My kit included:
- The Maine BG paper
- The Kelley Purkey "Best Coast" Stamp Set
I used 4 stamps: the anchor, "East Coast", "Fresh Seafood", and "Coastal Views"
- A StazOn Jet Black ink pad
- Bits and pieces from some old Elle Studio kits
- White scrap paper for matting and accents
- Sharpies (black and red)
- Project Life App for journaling
I selected a digital journaling card, typed my journaling, and printed on heavy white paper
- 2 Circle Punches
