National Scrapbook Day Challenge!

Happy National Scrapbook Day!

The Counterfeit Kit Challenge team is excited to give you some creative mojo today with our Blog Hop of Challenges!

Here is the complete list of our Design Team Blogs!  Make sure you check them all out!  Their challenges are awesome!



Bethany http://inspiredscrapper-bethany.blogspot.com/    **You are Here**


I am excited to issue you my own challenge today! 

Paper Only Challenge!  For your project, you may only use two things...paper and adhesive! 



Now get that panicked look off of your face! You can totally do this!  There are SO many embellishments and things that you can make out of paper.  It will take a bit of time, but think of how proud you will be when you finish!

Here is a great site that inspired me!
Turn Your Scraps into Sunbursts

And here are the projects I put together based on their tutorial!
**It was a bit time consuming, but now that I have the templates, it will be easy to put together again.  In fact, I have plans to do one for my daughter's crazy hair day photos!  And yes.  Yes I am proud!  LOL




Have an excellent weekend of creating!  Don't forget to show us what you make by commenting on the National Scrapbook Day blog post on Counterfeit Kit Challenge!

Paper ONLY?!?! Let me think! But your sunburst is really sweet and looks just gorgeous!

Thank you for posting that link - I have been wondering how to make the starbursts I've been seeing. Your projects look awesome! I think I'm going to try my own one one of my challenge projects today.

Finally I finished the hop and got you your lovely blog! LOL
Great challenge! I guess it will be no surprise for you that I'm a great fan of making my own embellies, so using only paper is a fun one for me.
I just finished a lo that is almost fit into your challenge, but I used a little piece of riboon and I did some faux stitching... Oh, well, I guess I'll have to make a new lo for your challenge.. LOL
Have a wonderful scrappy weekend!

Now that is a challenge.... I would need a 12 step for embellishment program to help me with this. Awesome examples

I did it! I used the color challenge and pulled out my pink and aqua scraps to try out the sunburst pattern. I hand cut the title from more scraps and used a black pen to outline.

Brilliant - who knew getting back to the basics could be stunning! Well done.
