Overview

If you have ever browsed through those great monthly scrapbook kit clubs and admired their beautiful kits...but knew you needed more supplies, like a "hole in the head"...you know who you are (you're the one with TONS of supplies and embellishments in your ever growing scrapbook stash)...this challenge is for you!

On the 5th of every month here at the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog, we will choose a kit from a popular kit club (for inspiration) and challenge you to create a "counterfeit kit", using just the supplies you already own. We will keep the kits we choose fairly current, they won't be more than one year old.

In addition to our "counterfeit" challenge, we will also include a few other challenges (to actually USE these kits), a few tutorials (for creating your own embellishments), and a blog hop (toward the end of the month for everyone to SHARE their "counterfeit kits" and their creations)!

We challenge you to jump right in, join us, be inspired, create, and share your work! We can't wait to meet you!

TERMS OF USE- Although "scraplifting" is well-received (and common) in the scrapbook community, we would like to remind you that all of the information, links, and artwork on this blog are intended for personal use only. Please do not re-create any kits for resale. Please do not use any of the downloadable images or artwork for resale without reading and following the specific guidelines laid out by the site you have obtained the image(s) from. Thank you!

Susanne's Add On Kit

Susanne has put together a lovely kit for us to finish out the month!


**I think I want to go "shopping" in Susanne's Scrapbook Studio...such fun embellishments!

And here is a sneak peek of the cards she is busy making from her kit!


I love the "fussy cut" flower and the button for the dot on the "i".  Very fun details!

And to inspire you, here is a really great room I found on Pinterest:

Lisa: Creating my Counterfeit Kit

I was so excited that Lisa decided to post about how she put together her kit!  I know this process is different for everyone, but I know you can get some great ideas and perhaps even the courage to try it if you haven't done one before!

Without further ado...
