January 2024 - Challenge #1 - Cozy Adventures

 It is time for the first challenge of the month where we hope that you will bust out this beautiful kit that you have created from your stash this month!

Master Forger Tara took a hard look at the inspiration kit and decided to take her inspiration for Challenge #1 directly from the collection's name! The collection is called Cozy Adventures. Let's remind you of that beautiful kit that we are using for inspiration:

Hip Kit Club December 2023 Main Kit

 

 

Master Forger Tara has challenged us to create a layout using the name of the collection, "Cozy Adventures" as a bouncing off point for your layouts.  You could totally take that challenge literally and use it as a title.  Or you could just create a layout celebrating a cozy adventure that you have a memories of to create a layout.  Take this prompt and just go with the flow!  😉

GD Kristen says this about her layout:

When I was thinking about what a cozy adventure would look like to me, I thought about all my family adventures to my uncle’s tree farm. My whole family would bundle up (depending on the weather) and hop in the back of the truck and ride over the acres and acres of land covered in a wide array of Christmas trees, just looking for the perfect tree! 

I found these fun pictures of my son and nephew’s very first tree hunt in 2009 and thought they’d fit perfectly! I used lots of cozy looking embellishments and warm toned papers from my Counterfeit Kit Collection to finish off the cozy feels of our adventures!

Master Forger Tara wanted to show that the challenge could be used for more than one type of adventure.  In May of 2016, she got a new kitten from her husband and she's fallen completely in love with this little guy.  He was just so small but watching his everyday adventures never gets old.  On this day, his adventure was getting onto the recliner without any help from his Human Momma and taking a nap all curled up on the recliner.  

There is a process video for this layout on Master Forger Tara's YouTube Channel.
