January 2021 - Forgery on the Fourth

 

Here's our inspiration kit:

Not Just For Boys Flurries Deluxe Theme Kit

Master Forger of Ceremonies Lisa says, I think it's festive enough if, as I suspect, some of us would like to scrap some Christmas memories that have just passed. There are enough non-seasonal colours & themes that you can tweak it in another direction, too!

Which elements do you think the Master Forgers will have a go at?

Master Forger Leslie brought her fussy-cutting & stamping skills this month. What about you? You could punch a tree border stencil, or other seasonal motif, out of sturdy cardstock. Project Life-style cards are a quick project, or stamp seasonal images & cut them out in lieu of the sticker sheet elements!

Master Forger Laura was inspired by the sticker sheet in the kit. She pulled some scraps and used a 1" circle punch and some white foam alpha stickers to make the "snow" banner. Then using the remaining scraps, she cut pieces of 1.5 inch x 1 incher to make a flag banner.

Master Forger Cindy has several different techniques this month.

Master Forger Tara also created the woodgrain patterned paper and the cocoa cup for her forgery!  She got a great big laugh over the fact that Leslie had the exact same idea!  Great minds!!!
