February 2026 Challenge #4 Baby Use those Scraps

 I know if you have been creating as much as I have been this month, you have a pile of scraps to use!! Challenge 4 is always using your scraps on the Counterfeit Kit Challenge! Scraps have an annoying habit of building up if you don't use them -- so this is a great challenge to do some more stash-busting, but now with the smaller pieces that you have collected over the month!

As the last day of February, here is one more reminder of what our inspiration was for this month! The Scrap Room's Flavor of the Month and embellishment kits from January 2024.

Let's see what our Master Forgers created with their scraps! 

MF Ryann has had this circle cut away in her stash for at least a year.  When she put her kit together, she decided this needed to get used up!  What better way than to use it on a Scrap Challenge?!?

MF JoJo used her scraps to make this fun layout and she made it match her sketch challenge by using the scraps from that challenge.

I decided to use the larger blue and white scrap as a base on the black and then used some smaller strips and the dark blue pattern paper to mat my photos - this came together super quick, and made it so some of those very small pieces were strategically used, and not put in the recycling bin! My process is on my channel. 

• Come back tomorrow,  March 1st for our Kit Reveal and Hop!!

August 2024 - Challenge #4 - Baby Use Those Scraps!

Master Forger Jody here! Today is our final challenge using our August kits! Our final challenge is  always "Baby Use Those Scraps". Before we get started, let's take a look at our Inspiration Kit:  Bee-utiful Day Kit by Jennifer Ferh from sweetshoppedesigns.com

 

 

Our fabulous guest designer, Sarah Rouault made super cute cards with her scraps! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for joining us this month! You are an amazing paper crafter!

Now let's see what our Master Forgers have created for you using scraps from their kits!

Master Forger Ryann says she usually does this challenge with all the little bits and pieces that are laying around her desk, but this month, her kit was so big, she had a lot of half sheets and cut out papers.  She challenged herself to find a way to use up some of those this time, instead!  

Here are some of the leftover pieces of paper and the ends of some stickers.  She also included some embellishments she thought would tie it together.  That black and white sheet was partially used when she put it in her kit, and the circle was cut out for one of her layouts this month.  

 

She ended up layering several pieces together to make a 12x12 base, then created her layout from there.  The scalloped circle helped to cover some of the cut up sections of the other papers, and that's been in her stash for a long time!

Master Forger Jody

Hey @floppyearedfarm sharing how I used my August scraps! I have been working on a snap album of our Summer trip and wanted to use up some of these cut apart cards! I also used some of the pattern paper I printed. It feels so good to use all the things!!!   Well, that's a wrap for me this month. Come back on September 1st to see what Master Forger Brandi has in store for you.
