I'm preparing this post a month in advance - without knowing, but hopeful.
May, more than any other month of the year,
wants us to feel most alive.
Hi there! Master Forger Leslie here to host the Counterfeit Kit Challenge month of May. First let me introduce our May Guest Designer, Ashley!
Hello! I'm Ashley and I've
been scrapbooking since I was 16. My style has changed tons over the
years and now I scrap 12x12 and 8.5x11. I love the idea of using an
inspiration kit and putting together your own stash kit. What a great
way to make me feel like a kit designer, give me a fresh look at my own
supplies, and make a dent in my stash!
Be sure to visit her blog for some wonderful inspiration.
I never thought I would be able to say this, but our May inspiration kit comes from a new kit club, Club Echo Park! Not a new manufacturer, mind you, but I am thrilled to be a bi-monthly subscriber (at a very reasonable price!) And it is just so pretty! The kit is built on the Echo Park/Carta Bella Oh Happy Day collection.

And of course, don't forget that we'll be back throughout the month to give you some tips, ideas
and challenges as you put together and use your kit.
Here's what we have coming up this month:
- May 3rd: I'll be back with a "Just the Gist" post to help jump-start your kit-making.
- May 4th: We'll have our "Forgery on the Fourth" post where the Master Forgers will reveal how they created their own version of some of the items in this month's kit.
- May 6th: We'll reveal a couple of mini-kits and projects, in case you're a little limited for time this month and would prefer a more petite kit.
- May 12th & 18th: We'll give you two challenges to help you use the kit you've made.
- May 24th: I'll be showcasing one of the CKC community who's caught my eye this month
- May 30th: We'll be offering another installment in our Killing Kits Series to help you find ways to use up all of your kit.
We always love to see your work, so please share your kits and projects with us.
You can use our Monthly Link-up page, post them in our Facebook Community, or share them on Instagram (we are @counterfeitkitchallenge or tag us using #counterfeitkitchallenge and #ckcmay2020).
Have fun! Leslie |
I love echo park. And I am not surprised that you are the kit picker this month. When I saw the model board on facebook, I thought to myself, " No chevrons and lots of flowers. Leslie's gonna love this one."
ReplyDeleteOh I am in Echo Park's club too. So I have this kit, all, all, all of it!! I will make a push in May to see how much I can use while checking you gals out for inspiration.
