The downside of buying a bargain bag-FULL of teal flower buttons is that they take ages to use up!
This month's guest Forger at the CKCB is the lovely Kate Blue.
I've run out of photos to print and scrap.
My craft room is a terrible mess after sorting my kit.
3 weeks ago my 55 bags project stalled - oops!
In the spirit of All Fool's Day, one of these statements isn't quite true ... :-)
Welcome to April's CKCB Master Forger Blog Hop, which started with Queen Kat and brought you to me via Angela. Our kit to copy this month was Gossamer Blue's March Kit.
As is often the case I didn't have any of the exact supplies and this month I decided I would start my counterfeiting by copying the cardstock colours and see what happened.
There's lots of new stash from a recent win from Echo Park's Blog Hop as well as older supplies and scraps; plus this month I have included some stamps as I really must use them more often.
Supplies:Blue, yellow, cream and green Bazzill cardstock
EP's For the Record 2 Fancy (blue trellis reverse)
½ sheet MME's On The Bright Side Branches (orange & white stems reverse)
Near & Dear Cameron by Dream Street PapersEP's For The Record 2 Diamonds (blue arches reverse)
½ sheet teal Kraft-core cardstock
EP's For the Record 2 Chevrons (blue chevrons reverse)
½ sheet Flutter Butter Burst by Bo Bunny (brown circle reverse)
EP's For The Record 2 Element & Alpha sticker sheets
Various journalling spots from my stash
Elle's Studio Number It stamps
Artemio circle stamps
Old book pages
MME Follow Your Heart Be Amazing Rhinestones
Chipboard circles and buttons from my stash
Now it's time to hop over to Jennifer who launched her new blog yesterday - and while you're there, take a look at the launch post here where she's got an awesome give-away! If you get lost on the hop today, the full list is available on the CKCB here.
Hmm which one wasn't completely truthful? ;)
ReplyDeleteFun seeing the new kit - I've got two pages sitting in various stages on my trolley and am enjoying reading blogs before getting to play today. Must use my stamps more too - been thinking of my crafting area in the next house, hope there are more visual storage possibilities!
looking good. Have fun.
ReplyDeleteNice Kit love the colours. My guess at the April fool incorrect statement is the running out of photos one.
ReplyDeleteGreat kit Jemma, can't wait to see what you make with it....
ReplyDeleteClearout stalled 3 weeks ago? Hmm, think you may have a number wrong there!!!
A great kit Jim Jam.I think you would never run out of photos.I certainly don't.
ReplyDeleteYour kit inspired me to add rhinestones.
What a superb kit! love the color combo and it's a great idea to add the stamps, so you'll have to use them.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your kit!
I'm with you on not using my stamps nearly enough. Very pretty kit. Love that sticker sheet with that super vintage camera. Have fun creating this month.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!! Love your colors! Great kit!
ReplyDeleteYou are so funny. Out of photos to scrap. ha!
ReplyDeleteDelightful bits in your kit. Reminded me of a few things I might be able to pull into my own kit.

I much prefer your kit to the original, and I'm betting you still have photos to scrap.

ReplyDeleteThat EP collection had always been one of my favorites, love your collection better than my own! Wish I would've had those cute rhinestones.
ReplyDeleteAs if we pulled ever run out of photos. He he. Great kit. Really like the tones you've enhanced with your cardstock starting point.
ReplyDeleteVery nice vibe to your kit - I especially like that full sheet of diecut/stickers. Scrap on!

ReplyDeleteHa ha ha... Yeah like we'd fall for you running out of photos :). Great kit
ReplyDeleteOoh. I'm a little bit envious of all the blue in your kit. After month's of putting together counterfeit kits, my blue stash has dwindled to just a few sheets!
