| Welcome to November, Emily! |
Who is Emily, you ask? Not our Guest Designer but let's greet her while we're on the subject. Master Forger of Ceremonies Lisa has invited a dear old CKC friend, former Master Forger Susanne!
"Hello scrappy friends . . . Susanne, here, joining in again with the Counterfeit Kit Challenge. How fun that Lisa asked me to participate this month, as she and I are early blog friends from back in the last decade + early CKC design team members together. Looking back at those posts, I see my style has changed quite a bit. Still, I love making kits from my sizeable stash, which hubby refers to as my personal scrapbook store.
Some time during this crazy pandemic, I launched a new scrapbook blog adventure at Susanne Stamps and Scraps, along with starting my You-Tube channel. I hope you will check out both. Like the Counterfeit Kit Challenge, there are lots of ways to keep refreshing our interest in this fun, meaningful hobby. So, let’s get to it, shall we?"

Now let's get to our CKC November inspiration kit! Master Forger of Ceremonies Lisa says:
I wanted something seasonal - I even considered going festive - and looked around for a kit club we haven't used for a while with warm, cosy autumnal kits to choose from. I was really happy to find exactly what I was looking for over at Felicity Jane. Their September 2021, Emily kit has the most gorgeous palette of colours and the kit seems to be full of the most lovely bits and pieces to form a wonderful selection of scrapbooking scrumptiousness. It shouts short days with blue skies and sunshine; the first really bitterly cold morning with heavy frost and mist on the fields; of setting down on the sofa with a new TV show to binge watch while wrapped up in a blanket; of the calm before the storm of December and Christmas!
If you are in a different part of the world and not heading into winter at this time, I hope that the soft shades of yellow, orange, pink and green will inspire you in a warm weather direction instead! I think there's plenty of inspiration to be found in the colours and elements of the kit.

I used the description at the link to pull my papers while ignoring the color scheme: floral/daisies, gingham/dot grid, grid/apple, ledger/chevron, eyelet lace/modern, honeycomb/leaves, 2 FJ solids
My full "MUM's the WORD" kit:
I also pulled more papers - no surprise - and other stuff...
