Counterfeit Kit Challenge #1: Subway Art

You've seen the canvas signs in your local home decor store?  You know, the over-sized ones with the graphic font and the litany of phrases ranging from anything Christmas to baseball.  Yes, those.  I bet you didn't know they had a name.  Well, they do.  Subway Art...it is all the rage and most like most trends, they have made their way into the scrapbook arena as well.

I really scored big that I was assigned this challenge as my scrapbestie and fellow master forger, Leslie, just recently sent me a box of scrappiness and it included the My Mind's Eye card that is featured on my layout.  Talk about made to order!  Take a look:

And if Subway Art wasn't trendy enough, throw in some chalkboard art for good measure!  I am totally in love!  And for the trifecta?  The subject of my layout.  My crafty and creative sister made this adorable interactive and whimsical skating box for my daughter which made the perfect subject matter for my layout.  Tiny Gracie skates around the interior of the Altoids box via a paper clip and magnet.  How sweet is that?   I just love when it all comes together!

I hope you are inspired by this trend and share your creation over on Mr. Linky on the Counterfeit Kit Challenge site.  I'd love to see your creation!
