September 2023 - Challenge #2 - Just Having Fun!

 September the 18th and it's time for Challenge #2 round here at the Counterfeit Kit Challenge and I'm excited to see how you interpret it.

As a reminder, Master Forger Tina chose the April 2023 kit called "Aurora" by {Not} Just for Boys kit club as our inspiration for this month.

Challenge #2 - Just Having Fun!

There are some of my favorite items in this kit especially the cutfile and the mist! So I want you to have fun creating using those items: Cutfile and Mist on your layout, card or project

Master Forger Misty really did have fun using her cut file and sprays! 

Master Forger Christine loves the herringbone pattern so much, she used it as both a mat and in the cut file.  To create the "shadow" of the cut file word, she use the mist on the inner portion and offset it behind the main title.   What a fun color combo this is!

 Master Forger Tara created a monochromatic layout for this challenge. She used the Family cutfile with a photo of her family taken on her wedding anniversary in 2018.  It was rare to have that many of their kids and their spouses in one location, so it was a photo op!!  There is a process video available on her YouTube channel here.

Master Forger Leslie went rogue with her cutfile & spray. I needed a small version of the Paige Evans freebie floral lightbulb cutfile so I printed the jpg version on cardstock, fussy-cut the background out, colored the floral with paint pens, and colored the lightbulb metal base with a Q Tip & my Lost Shadow Distress spray!

Master Forger Tina used both her spray from her kit and 2 of her cut files from her kit, plus a few more sprays from her stash for her layout for this challenge. Using a bunch of greens and browns from her kit.

 The rest of September is going to look something like this:
