This month we have a bit of a departure in terms of counterfeiting ... copying a digital kit! It was hard to choose just one to counterfeit, but in the end we chose Summer Lovin' from Scrap Orchard - a lovely mix of bright colours and fun embellishments:

I'm looking forward to using up some ribbons this month - it's been a while since I used a lot on my pages as I've been going through a machine stitching & button phase recently. Do you get stuck on a particular technique/type of embellishment?
Next on the kit tour is the lovely Jen who makes awesome kits full to bursting with gorgeousness! If you get lost along the way pop back to the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog for a full list of the hops!

Oooh, gorgeous! I love your warm colors!
Like that you grabbed your color inspiration from the first pull of paper - all the rest just falls into place :~) Looks like your chock full of goodness for the month!
I love your papers. The colors are great together.
yes I love this colour combo and you have created a really great kit.
Lovely colours. Your kit looks great.
Ooh, this feels like a different range of colours for you Jemma! I love it, it's absolutely gorgeous!
I do find that I can get stuck in a little bit of a rut with my crafting - so it's always fun to try something new (or something old) when I can. I've not included ribbon in my own kits for a while either, so maybe I'll steal that bit of inspiration from you? x
Cool stuff Jemma - that denim paper with the stitching detail is ab-fab
! Enjoy your kit.
Great kit! I just got some Pink Paislee Prairie Hill, and your kit colors remind me of that line. And I have some of those Smash tags - hadn't thought about how they would coordinate with some of my new stuff. Love it!
What a wonderfully created kit. I hear ya on the digi front. People do amazing things with it, but I'm a paper girl myself! Love the TH medallions and that golden chicken wire patterned paper. I love ribbon and need to use it more - looking forward to seeing your creations.
Love your color choices on this one!
I love the awesome fresh orange, teal, and yellow combo! The rosettes will be so cool too! We have the same letter stickers from Crate Paper! Your patterns are so fun, I can't wait to see what you make Jemma!!! xoxo
Some of my favourite colours in here! This must have been quite a challenge to do, and you've done it wonderfully. :)
Very pretty colors this month. Love some of your various embellies...the twine, buttons are always a fave and the accordian flowers
Okay I guess I'm too late to the game to steal Rebecca's comment - but the colors do remind me of Prairie Hill and I did just buy some of it also! LOL! It is a lovely kti and I really love that twine package!
I've got plenty of ribbon in my stash, and I'm hoping to use some this month too!
Your kit is amazing. I love the colors you picked and all the great embellishments. I think I might try to counterfeit your kit. Miss talking to everyone and looking forward to seeing your layouts this month.
Love your kit! I found the original a bit confusing, but I'm liking the ones I'm seeing on people's blogs.

Lovely colours. Now see I like the digi stuff I've done as I can make that durned tag/button/ribbon the right size for my page ;)
Yes, I go through phases of embellishments too. Thankfully as I mix my pages up it isn't as obvious as when I scrapped chronologically!
I like the addition of orange to the color palette! Those rosette flowers are gorgeous!
I too have found CKC a good way to reaquaint myself with a less used technique or product. I tend to avoid messy techniques so last month I used a virgin stamp set. This month I am pulling out the paints.
I really love the colours of your kit and the rosette die is a winner (hint to self: need to get one at last) and I am interested to see what you do with the ribbons - I have so many and have NO idea what to do with them!
