I am second on the blog hop on this crisp January morning and follow on from our Guest Designer <a href="https://cindyscreations-cinmfoster.blogspot.com/">Cindy </a> - she always plays along with us at the Counterfeit Kit Blog and creates fun and fabulous layouts.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So, our first kit for 2017 has been put together by Kylie from <a href="https://www.shopandcrop.com.au/">Crop'n'Shop</a>. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the gentle tone which reminds me of a winter morning just like today.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've cheated slightly as I've had the "Capsule" collection in my stash for a few months and I'll never get round to using it if I don't make my kit from it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will add plain yardstick, dies and stamps as/if/when I need them</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but until then here is my kit "Resolution"...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you have a resolution for 2017?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mine? Don't put off until tomorrow something you can do today...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
...so, with that in mind, off you go to see <a href="http://lcsmithsaved-outofthemire.blogspot.com/">Leslie</a> (with an "ie") and her magical blue box</div>

At that point I had absolutely no idea what or how I was going to forge either of these items.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I trawled my brain (which didn't take long)</div>

I actually used the stamp that I had put in my kit and a fair few people at the retreat </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(where I created my layout) used it too!</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">A few weekends ago I packed up my kit bags, loaded the car and headed down to Gloucestershire for my first time on the Bloggers' Weekend Retreat organised by my friend and fellow Master Forger </span><a href="http://just-jimjams.blogspot.co.uk/" style="background-color: white; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Jemma</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "\22 helvetica\22 " , "\22 arial\22 " , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Another first for me was a little pre-retreat Pass the Page scrapping organised by </span><a href="https://jsquaredscrapspot.wordpress.com/" style="background-color: white; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Julie</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px;">Thank you Julie for your explanation as, although I had heard of Pass the Page before, I had never taken part so for the benefit of those in the same boat as me, the idea is that the first scrapper creates a layout and sends a photo of said layout to the next person on the list who then takes inspiration/scraplifts to create their own layout before sending a photo to the next person and so on.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "\22 helvetica\22 " , "\22 arial\22 " , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">At the retreat, the layout were laid out in sequence and it was quite </span><span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">intriguing to see which parts stayed, which parts skipped a layout or two (how did we do that?) and which parts just never made it!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "\22 helvetica\22 " , "\22 arial\22 " , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">If you want to see how the first layout by Julie </span><span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">morphed into the last layout by Jo then you may want to follow the running order by starting with the creator, <a href="https://jsquaredscrapspot.wordpress.com/">Julie</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "\22 helvetica\22 " , "\22 arial\22 " , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Here is my layout which followed on from Claudia's. I used my Cameo to create the circle cutout and printed my journalling before I started (we all know how much I hate my handwriting!)</span></div>

It always intrigues me and I'll never know the answer!!!</div>

If you saw my kit reveal on Saturday you may have noticed a couple of forgeries.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I saw the kit for the first time I was quite excited about the forgeries that I could create.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I dug around in a cupboard or two and found these make up sponges which, when cut in half and stuck to stamp blocks, worked perfectly to create one of the papers.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The coloured one I really didn't like however the monochrome one turned out a lot nicer...</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I then used the same idea for another 12x12 and also dotted the ink around using </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a cotton bud...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Another idea was to use different sized circle punches, cut the "punch" in half</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and randomly stick them onto a piece of card stock.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I prefer this than the coloured attempt above!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
October has arrived in a total whirlwind and here in the UK it won't be long before those </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
dark nights draw in and the central heating will be whirring at max chat!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
BUT</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
as I write my October Reveal post the sun is still shining and I'm yet to even turn the heating on - a total first for this nesh Master Forger.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Master Forger Susan has chosen<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.pinkfreshstudio.com/blogs/pinkfresh-studio/reveal-day-indigo-hills">Indigo Hills Collection from Pinkfresh Studio</a>.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a delightful kit to forge and scrap with which (I think)<br />
has both a Summery and Autumnal feel to it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the choice of our Counterfeit Kit Inspiration this month. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The colours, the design and the shapes are all something I would actually buy but we don't DO that, we forge and create our own!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">Before i show you mine, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">have you said "hello" to</span><strong style="text-align: start;"> our Guest Designer</strong><span style="text-align: start;"> Kelly Barron? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">She was at the top of the hop (<a href="http://kaybeetoo.blogspot.com/">HERE</a>) if you want to start at the beginning. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my quick pick of the items I chose to include in my kit this month.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The choice was so HUGE and I was a little overwhelmed at first</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
as I've been keeping my kits small lately, I continued in the same fashion as this encourages me to create and use up said kit instead of being left with half used up boxes of bits that never see daylight again.</div>

Next was two different options for the alphas and first was starting from scratch </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
by cutting alphas from two different papers, cutting one in half and sticking on top.</div>

I'm not keen on the outcome of this one but I'm sure it could be perfected</div>

Have you ever looked at a photograph of such a happy moment that isn't so happy anymore</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and wondered whether you should scrap it or not?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well here is your answer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I captured this moment perfectly of her</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
as she read an email and got the news she had been waiting for.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were sitting on La Rambla in Barcelona at the time and she managed to log into some free wifi</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to check her emails - and there it was - she was through to the last round</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to join an apprenticeship scheme with the Fire Service.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That smiled beamed all day!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So why wouldn't I want to scrap it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well two weeks later, she got the news that she hadn't made the very final 12</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and she was devastated - we all were </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
which made scrapping this picture all the more difficult</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
BUT</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we have to scrap the good AND the bad</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to tell our story, don't we?</div>

...you SCRAP!!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yep, that's what happened!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I haven't scrapped at home for a fair few months but while the computer was restoring</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(after installing an update that interfered with my Cameo software!!!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- and after clearing out the fridge and doing the hoovering -</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
what else could a girl do?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This month I was determined to use up my <a href="http://ohblogitifyoucantbeatthem.blogspot.co.uk/2016/08/time-flies-when-youre-having-fun.html">Counterfeit Kit</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(yes, it was small but it's a start!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to get back into joining in with <a href="http://miniowner.blogspot.co.uk/2016/08/sketch-challenge-august-1st-31st.html">Sue's Sketch Challenge</a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- hope over and take a look and going in -</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and although it's a very loose fit I can see</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the similarities :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

...and did you get it right?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In my Counterfeit Kit reveal post on Monday, I asked you to guess</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
how many forgeries there were in my kit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before I reveal the answer and if you want to guess,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
why not nip back and have a look <a href="http://ohblogitifyoucantbeatthem.blogspot.co.uk/2016/08/time-flies-when-youre-having-fun.html">HERE</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So which of these did I forge?</div>

Here is my first forgery. </div>
<br />
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was created using vinyl which I cut out on my trusty machine </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and stuck onto plain kraft card stock</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Next up and again I just die cut some stars </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(hearts or circles or anything could be used instead)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and placed on my 12x12 kraft.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I haven't stuck them down yet though as I may want a different shape!</div>

<b>Challenge #3</b> over on the <a href="http://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/">Counterfeit Kit Blog</a> is to be inspired by puzzles.<br />
<br />
I had a lightbulb moment and decided to create my own puzzle and found a website to help.</div>
</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using <a href="http://www.puzzle-maker.com/CW/">Puzzle Maker</a> I created a crossword to use as my journalling on my layout.<br />
This is what the website generated...<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Can you see my problem?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No matter what I did, I just couldn't get the words numbered correctly to make any sense.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Plan B (and not how I wanted it to look), I used my trusty Cameo to print and cut</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the words so I could arrange them in the correct order to create a</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
word search style effect and here is the outcome...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you are wondering what FOF is, let me help you out...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Forgeries on the Fourth is a Counterfeit Kit monthly post</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
where the Master Forgers attempt to inspire you to create your own elements, papers, alphas etc</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can find the post <a href="http://counterfeitkitchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/">HERE</a> so you can see what some of the other MFs have created</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but not before you have seen how easy it can be to create your own matching chipboard</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
pieces to coordinate with your kit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">(Although not especially creative, it is helpful when you want to match up and you don't have the "just the right bit")</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Firstly I die cut some random shapes...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHwviDKq2ez0X1CJHG9qi4AXfxXaVRnDiqYcAZ3DUjubHGitJO2Igyt7Ixrv6wnwHRV4lMfDlMC5OOSjJGgO3N6hxgxCjlJRytB3VohheE1iWblD1rJFpspNAmSSg6LCC2UTeTSZH9O-w/s1600/IMG_1799.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHwviDKq2ez0X1CJHG9qi4AXfxXaVRnDiqYcAZ3DUjubHGitJO2Igyt7Ixrv6wnwHRV4lMfDlMC5OOSjJGgO3N6hxgxCjlJRytB3VohheE1iWblD1rJFpspNAmSSg6LCC2UTeTSZH9O-w/s200/IMG_1799.JPG" width="200" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7dkR88N7JFa_KFWZ5tx9l7tqqDad9ak5khB52N-tJ8dX9bgj-BwcekkxPsKmnVUR8rrfhmupafVxg-AQm9vB-GKiiOyLP-PZCX-fCxR2TDu304RW0b7thyeM121EkRsVcUcLWeuldbMg/s1600/IMG_1815.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7dkR88N7JFa_KFWZ5tx9l7tqqDad9ak5khB52N-tJ8dX9bgj-BwcekkxPsKmnVUR8rrfhmupafVxg-AQm9vB-GKiiOyLP-PZCX-fCxR2TDu304RW0b7thyeM121EkRsVcUcLWeuldbMg/s200/IMG_1815.JPG" width="200" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then chose a sheet of double sided paper to coordinate with my kit and die cut</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the exact same shapes...</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
It was on this exact day 3 years ago (my 43rd birthday) that I received the news from Bethany</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that I had been selected to be part of the Counterfeit Kit Design Team.<br />
<br />
I am delighted to say that today, my 46th birthday, I'm back!!!<br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">(for a little while)</span><br />
Thank you Lisa for the encouragement.<br />
<br />
So you will probably have joined me from <a href="http://66.147.244.112/~honeysv0">Kelly</a>'s blog.<br />
<br />
If not and you haven't got a clue what I'm talking about then why not jump back to the beginning of the hop where you can see how<br />
<a href="http://pistojapiiri.blogspot.com/">Salla</a><br />
this month's Guest Designer has interpreted June's Counterfeit Kit which is...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://hipkitclub.net/may-2016">HipKit Club May 2016</a><br />
<br />
There are a few options to choose from but I decided on the <a href="https://hipkitblog.wordpress.com/2016/04/15/may-2016-hip-kit-reveal/">main kit</a> which looks like this...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
There are a fair few Hip Kit Club exclusives but nothing that will phase us Counterfeiters eh!?<br />
<br />
I chose my favourite side of each of the papers to counterfeit.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
This really is a quickie as I promised to join in with Sue's sketch</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
over on her blog <a href="http://miniowner.blogspot.co.uk/">Me and Mine</a> and the cut off is TODAY!!!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was overjoyed this week when Sue came "oop north" and Jemma (Jimjams) and I </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
had the chance to meet up with her on a little jaunt to Liverpool.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We sat and ate before taking a bus tour of the city and learning a thing or two</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that we didn't know before.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, what better way to join in with Sue's sketch than with a photo of the 3 of us</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
aboard the top deck of the red bus and aptly named after a Beatles song...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Not because it was difficult </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">but because I had created the perfect layout last month which you can see <a href="http://ohblogitifyoucantbeatthem.blogspot.co.uk/2016/02/another-one.html">HERE</a> </span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Use Print Media (newspapers, magazines, junk mail, catalogues) as the starting point for a layout. Colours, words, layout, even the story. could all be a source of inspiration.</span></div>
