November 2024 Inspiration Kit Reveal & Social Media Hop

 Welcome to November 2024 on the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog.  Master Forger Vikki here and I'll be hosting the blog this month. I'm excited to share this month's inspiration kit with you and can't wait to see the kits you create.

Our inspiration kit for November is Goldenrod by Traci Reed Designs.  I love how she incorporates  traditional fall with fresher colors.  The addition of black adds a great boldness to the kit.  If you plan to be scrapbooking Halloween photos, this kit has you covered with a few extras that scream the holiday vibe.

I'd like to introduce you to our guest designer for the month, the very talented Tamra Hunt.  I've been admiring her layouts for some time now, so I was super excited when she accepted my invitation to be this month's guest designer.  I know you will love her work as much as I do.  Here's a little bit about her and how she found our group:

"Hi All! My name is Tamra and I love to craft! I live in northern Alberta, Canada. I am engaged
to a wonderful man and I have one daughter. I have recently retired from the library and I am
enjoying all the free time. Years ago, I was an avid scrapbooker and loved rubber stamping too. But, for some reason, I lost interest in it. My stash languished for years while I pursued other hobbies like cross stitching and quilting.   Every now and then scrapbooking layouts would come across my feed in Pinterest and I was intrigued with how different it was now. Multimedia, sewing, painting and all the other great ways to make a layout. I was inspired again. I started organizing my old stash and quickly
realized that it wasn’t current with today's type of memory keeping and wondered what I could do with what I had. So, I used my friend google to search for anything that had to do with using up your stash. That’s when I found the Counterfeit Kit Community.  It was exactly what I was looking for. I enjoy all the inspiration this group provides - the monthly kits, the challenges and all the wonderful layouts. It is so much fun to take that inspiration and make my own kits with the stash I have.
This month's kit that Vikki chose for us is wonderful. I loved counterfeiting the soft autumn
colours and adding in a bit of spooky. I hope you will be inspired to create this month too!"

Here are photos of Tamra's awesome kit.  I can't wait to see what she creates with all of this goodness.

Don’t forget to check out how our talented team of Master Forgers built their kits this month!   I’ve linked everyone’s social media below, so go on, get out there and leave ‘em some love!
