I wanted to do those fun tassel bows that were in the inspiration kit. With plans to do the forgery I made sure to include thread in my kit to make the tassel bows out of:
I used my hand to wrap the thread around my fingers till I had what I wanted
wrapped up the ends in the middle of the bow to create the center of the bow and knotted off
Then clipped it and cleaned it up a bit
The other thing I forged in the inspiration kit was the Vicki Boutin's Field Notes collection called Daydreamer as soon as I seen that in the kit I knew that one would be so easy to forge and I had fun forging it too :)
The inks I used to create the paper, I also used a regular coffee cup and also some Heidi Swapp Gold color shine:
A smaller cup bottom would have worked better but I love how this turned out and look forward to using in on a layout.

I hope that you are inspired to try your hand at counterfeiting! Thanks for stopping by and seeing what I'm up to in my little corner of the world.
