Counterfeit Kit Challenge April Reveal and Blog Hop

LIGHTS!  CAMERA!  ACTION!

(Cue sultry, jazzy piano music)

It was a dark and stormy night when Bethany sent out the kit-to-copy to the Master Forgers.   Lynnette sat in a dimly lit room on the third floor of the Acme building staring at her laptop screen for hours wondering how she could make sense of the inspiration.

Messy Box - A Beautiful Mess

  Would she try for a direct copy or go rogue?   She's always been a good girl who follows the rules, but she was feeling restless and wanting to break free of the same old same old.  It was time for a change, a change that would set her free.  But would she go against the grain?  Be a rebel?   That's the struggle of a Master Forger....Master Forger Extraordinaire.

Here's how she made sense of it...

Dark, moody and mysterious, just like the film genre, this "Film Noir" kit eludes to a bit of an

 "Old Hollywood" vibe.

Like a savvy Director/Master Forger, Lynnette found her angle and went with an almost exclusive black and white kit with a bit of Hollywood glitz and gold.  She didn't have anything nearly as graphic as in the inspiration when she made her casting call to her stash, so she worked with the talent she already had.

Let's put the spotlight on the starring roles...the papers.

And the supporting cast...the embellishments!

CUT!

And that's a wrap, folks!  

We will now take this to edit and produce some Oscar-worthy black and white pages.  

Hope this "short" helped inspire you to create your own kit.  Find your own "genre" and make it your own based on the "talent" you have in your stash!

The hop starts over at the CKC blog, but here is the list of the entire cast of Master Forgers in case you get lost along the way.  Be sure to visit them for more inspiration.
