have I used this too much already?

The Counterfeit Kit blog always has some good ideas for creating your own versions of recent releases- Gabrielle from the design team posted about how to mace the echo park Stamp of Approval paper on her blog here

She tells you how to mark out the page and do it properly but my paper had a regular pattern of flowers on so I just jumped right in and it turned out OK. the trouble is now I know how to do it I can't stop! Just look at the second LO- I used the technique three times on it! Overload?

The first LO is for Counterfeit kit- their first mini challenge is to use memorabilia on your LO- I've been doing this a lot recently ( see here for example) but i need to make one using my kit so this is what i came up with

I save the train ticket from my trip to Amsterdam last friday and the map from the Hermitage in Amsterdam that I visited- the colours of yellow and teal worked perfectly with some of the colours from my kit- so I added a photo of some canal houses ( I took those a while back but who's checking?)
This one is for Sassy Lil Sketches- instead of the three photos in the sketch I cut up an old photo I had of Arthur blowing on a dandelion. My old camera had a function that would take 16 images within seconds but they would all appear on one print

I used my fun new technique and some new Studio Calico Papers
this was the sketch
