011222 CKC January Challenge #1 - Use Your Tools!

  Meet Fred!

The cousins built this snowman with their Bampa.

  January's Master Forger of Ceremonies Cindy has set us the perfect first Counterfeit Kit Challenge of the new year!  

You may have received a tool or two for Christmas. Well let's put it to use and let no dust collect on it. So, pull out your punches or dies, that stamp set, your embossing folders or that new cut file and make a project with it.

My daughter & granddaughter were able to come from way down south to celebrate Christmas with the rest of the family this year. It was glorious! (Fred is a little worse for the wear after weathering snowfall after snowfall since his creation.)

I used my new Cricut Explore Air 2 with free cut files from Scrapbook & Cards Today, plus punches & dies from my kit to create a flurry of snowflakes for my take on this challenge! You might recall that I went rogue with the color scheme of my counterfeit kit for a winter vibe.

I used a sketch from another group I'm in.

Really happy with how this turned out. There was a LOT of weeding!

Be sure you keep up with all the fun & creativity with CKC.

Here is what the rest of January will look like:

• 18th of January: Challenge #2 to inspire you even more to get creating from your own kit.
• 21st of January: Surprise Challenge!
• 24th of January: Followers Showcase - who has caught our eye this month
• 30th of January: Killing Kits - ideas for using up the bits and pieces left in your kit

You know that we always love to see your work, so please share your kits and projects with us. You can post them in our Facebook Community or share them on Instagram (we are @counterfeitkitchallenge or tag us using #counterfeitkitchallenge and #ckcjanuary2022).
