Counterfeit Kit Challenge #1 - Paper Addict

 Welcome to the Counterfeit Kit Challenge #1 - Paper Addict. We are using the Paper Addict Kit from Mommyish on the LilyPad. 

Here is a reminder of what the main kit looks like 

And it can be found here. For our first challenge Clair has tasked us with "Paper Addict: the inspiration kit is all about our 'Passion for Paper'. Please create a layout (or other memory keeping project) about a hobby (e.g., scrapbooking!) How meta;)"

Well I created a layout about my love of crafting with paper, stamps, dies and making embellishments. I used the Craft Smart- Corner Office desk and pencil paper for my layout. 

The top picture is of a stack of cards I made. I used stamps, paper, dies on the cards. This set I kept flat as it will be sent to our soldiers. I always stamp and heat emboss the envelopes before sending them.

The picture is matted onto black cardstock then layered onto the pencil paper. I have a washi sticker from the Heidi Swapp Time Capsule kit and layered one of the rolled flowers onto a die cut flower and leaf. 

The bottom picture is of a month's worth of layouts. Again I added in the flower I made from the dies I included in my kit. The note card is from the Time capsule kit and I attached another die cut flower with a paperclip. 

Thanks so much for stopping by. Don't forget to check out the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog and Facebook group for more inspiration.

  We are using the Paper Addict Digital kit from Mommyish s on the LilyPad. for our inspiration this month. Below is the Element Pack. 

I pulled out quite a few tools to may my embellishments to go with my CKC March 2021 - Looking Forward kit. Below is just a few of them. Since I'm make most of my embellishments I also using my pile of scraps. 

I started by pulling out a few scraps and die cutting them into different shapes. After I had a pile of them I started assembling them. I used Scotch Tacky glue for the larger ones and a Zig glue pen for the smaller ones. 

The rolled flowers are just strips of paper cut with scissors and rolled up then a scrap circle behind them to hold them together. Some of the larger flowers I used pearls or beads in the center. I did ink a few of them. I think I need to try a couple of the rolled flowers with my fringe scissors. The hardest part was waiting for them to dry. 

Don't for get to check out the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog to see more forgeries.

Now for my CKC March 2021 - Looking Forward

So I'm going rogue this month. I picked a few papers that are similar to the inspiration kit - the multi Diagonal Strip, the Polka Dot paper - mine is orange, the red squiggle paper and the blue text paper I have the red polka dot and the blue polka dot paper and a pencil paper.  I then pulled a paper from Jen Hadfield with a lot of girls on it instead of the typewriter paper. 

For my main paper kit I have Multi Strip paper and white polka dots on orange from Recollections - Home Basics paper pad (2016) the flower paper from Jen Hadfield - Chasing Adventures paper pad (2018), Creative Imaginations scalloped paper in red (unknown age), Colorbok Mint Julep (unknown age), Creative Imagination scalloped paper in blue (unknown age), Jen Hadfield - Chasing Adventures paper pad (2018), and the last two are from Craft Smart - Corner Office paper pad  

I have pulled a bunch of tools to make some of the elements from the Element Pack:

I love the DIY flowers, the airplane, lots of banners, clips, buttons stars and word strips. So for my kit I have pulled in my own DIY Flowers, assorted paper clips, buttons, stars, hears, banners, tags and tabs. To do this I pulled in quite a few punches and dies for the flowers, stars, hearts and a couple of flower border punches along with my never ending scrap pile. Here is a few of them. I love making my own embellishments so this digital kit Clair pick is awesome.

Here is my full kit - CKC March 2021 - Looking Forward  I added in the Heidi Swapp Time Capsule Kit for some words, tickets, envelope paper clips which has a touch of the black, tan, and gold.
