April Counterfeit Kit Challenge



Front Porch: A Little Birdie Told Me Kit


My Counterfeit Kit Papers


My Counterfeit Kit Embellishments



The 5th of the month is now my favorite date thanks to the Counterfeit Kit Challenge! This morning they announced the new kit and I couldn't wait to get home from work and start putting it together. This month's kit is from a brand new kit club, Front Porch Kits. I couldn't believe how many components were in this kit. I watched the video to get a closer look at everything and was so impressed. I don't have a ton of yellow in my stash and I don't use it very often in my layouts so the fact that I have 3 pieces of yellow paper is a big deal. I love butterflies and have a lot of butterfly supplies, but also realized I don't really use them in my layouts. Nor do I really use birds. It is going to be an interesting month as I truly challenge myself to use up my kit.

  4. I had the same problem with the yellow, I have bits, but I hardly go out of my way to buy it. Same with the birds, I'm all about the butterflies, but seeing so many birds about now makes me want bird stamps and bird papers...

    So much for this challenge being about using up stash! ;)
