January 2021 Counterfeit Kit Reveal and Blog Hop

 Welcome to the January 2021 Counterfeit Kit Challenge Kit Reveal and Blog Hop. Lisa is up this month and has picked out the Not Just For Boys Kit Club: https://notjustforboyskitclub.com She is basing our January Kit on their "Flurries" Deluxe Theme Kit which is sold out but the photos and details are still available on their site. 


The kit can be found here - there are also close up of it in this link. 

Our Guest Designer this month is Tamara,  so be sure to giver her a warm welcome. As always the blog list is below.

Now for my kit - CKC January 2021 - Snow:


For the papers The snowmen just make me smile and I have a picture I want to tuck behind them: 

I've pulled paper from four paper pads DCWV - The Christmas Stack, DCWV - The Holiday Collection - The Christmas Stack, DCWV Unknown papers as it was part of stack that is used up all but this Winter Collection, Recollections - Bright and Jolly Paper pad. These are all really old papers with the newest being the Bright and Jolly paper pad. To this I've added cardstock, a woodgrain from Simple Stories - woodgrain and gingham paper pad (2017). I'll be adding more cardstock as I go. I did cut a "December" grid from white cardstock. I just didn't have a story to tell about cocoa and I really wanted to use this file instead - I did cut it in white cardstock so hopefully that counts. 



For my embellishments: I pulled three sheets of cut aparts from my paper pads. I have wood veneer in "Merry Christmas" three different snowflakes and tree, felt tree, giant brads in white, green and red, DIY bows in silver and gold glitter paper, Crafters Square - silver snowflakes, red circle gems and green tear drops, Make it Christmas - Christmas light bulb, Recollections Christmas brads, Crystal Stickers - Glitter Dome in red, white, blue and silver, punched snowflakes, and some embellishments left over from other kits. I have several 4x6 and 3x4 journaling cards - some are pintables that I have no idea of when I or where I got them.  The rubber pieces are from an old K and I Memories kit - Winter. I'm just trying to get them used up. Can you believe I found two sheets of Christmas and Winter word stickers. These are also old along with the Our Snowman rub on.  I know the inspiration kit has stamps and stencils in it so I am reserving the right to add in as needed. 

Now you need to head on over to Julene to see her take on our kit - I think she went rogue this month so be sure to check her out.

I see some beautiful papers and embellishments in your kit this month! I can't wait to see what you do with your kit this month!

Lisa said...

the December grid most definitely counts! Great that you made the adaptation to fit what you need from the kit. I think I will be cutting out the cup of cocoa because it's super cute but I have not cocoa stories too so I've no idea what I'll do with it! This is a great kit and I know you will be very productive with it!
