Designakit Winakit 8

[Tina]

Lets get started with a color swatch (this one will probably take me a little longer to make b/c I'm working on Freebs bonuses!) :D

[Jeanet]

Here's one from me

[MurlieMac]

I've never done a color swatch before. How do I get a color swatch in my reply without loading it to my gallery?

[mcbowersox]

Jeanet, I love that swatch!

[JenniferG]

I love those blues Jeanet!

There is no way without putting it in your gallery. I made an album and will be uploading to that. Can't decide what to do with the ones that were chosen though! :lol:

[sandygb]

Here's one from me that I submitted months ago to Gimme a clue, but it was never used. I still love it:

[mcbowersox]

Why are my swatches showing up so small? Can I make them bigger?

[sandygb]

Christy - It looks like you used the same method as you would to insert a link to one of your scrapbook page thumbnails. Instead......go to your gallery and click on the thumbnail of your color swatch. Then right-click on the swatch and choose "properties". Highlight the URL string and CTRL-C to copy it. Then come back here to the forum and click on "Go Advanced". Click on the "Insert Image" icon (4th from the right) and CTRL-V to paste the URL for your image. That should do it....

[MurlieMac]

Okay, we'll try this

Thought this might work for a Valentine LO.

But I do love Jeanet's swatch

[MurlieMac]

:yahoo: It worked!!!

Sandy, you are my hero! Thanks for your quick response! I was able to edit my post and get them to show up bigger! Yeah!

[bamabreeze10]

This is GORGEOUS!! Reminds me of the beach in the springtime!!

And another:

[handkl]

So many colours to select from...Tina, however will you choose?

[Tina]

So many colours to select from...Tina, however will you choose?

ack! I don't know! I see about 5 I want to use!

[handkl]

I really like both of Sandy's swatches, but also like Jeanet's too...I am glad you have to choose and not me...hehehe.

[JenniferG]

There are so many awesome swatches...but I would LOVE to see what you do with this one! I love the colors here!

And another:

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/500/Votives.jpg?356

[JenniferG]

Jeanet's has such a beachy rustic look...a grungy rustic kit with lots of chipboard would be good for it I'm thinking....

[mommabyrd2003]

I'm gone for a 24 hour period and you've moved on to another kit? We have to go to gymnastics now. Please don't finish the kit before we get back. ;)

Is it absolutely freezing at your place Tina? It's freezing and windy. There is talk that we may not have school Friday if the predicted temp is the actual temp. A high of 7 for the day - what is that?

[LinJ]

Love all the suggestions...

Hard to choose! Jeanet's was my first choice... then I get confused as they are all pretty !

[moog25]

So many lovely colors! Can't wait to see which one you choose.

[idtwinmom]

Gymboree Coat
http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/500/gymbo-coat.jpg


I vote for this one! It would make a great Valentine kit with some extra colors thrown in for those just because I love you pages!

[HeatherH]

:yahoo: It worked!!!

Here's another


http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/6727/Colorswatch-3.jpg

I have the perfect photos for this one! Even the same theme as the bedding!

Friday expecting a HIGH of 8 (F) and a low of -4 (F) before the wind chills! eeeeek!:snowman:

[sandygb]

Wow! Great colors to choose from Tina!

[Robyn Gough]

There is no way without putting it in your gallery. I made an album and will be uploading to that. Can't decide what to do with the ones that were chosen though! :lol:

If you prefer not to have it in your gallery, you can upload your swatches to photobucket or similar photo hosting service. Flickr is another one that comes to mind. I haven't used Flicker, but photobucket gives you the link to use in forums underneath your image in your photobucket album.

Good idea, Robyn. I, personally, put all of mine in a private album here @ DSP so they aren't all over my gallery. :D

[wuvie]

I have seen at least two color swatches I just love :yes:
I am sending mind waves to Tina :rofl:

[bamabreeze10]

there are SO many awesome ones this time around!! I can't wait to see what Tina picks :)

[mcbowersox]

I'm going to bed soon, so Tina should just be picking up speed! We'll probably be on kit 10 by the morning!

[dawn-in-nz]

Good grief, I go to bed and a new kit has been finished by the time I wake up! I didn't even get to put in some swatches either - slow down slow down you're making me giddy.

[Tina]

sorry, i'm having the WORST time deciding....

I've finally come to a choice tho. A bit (or a lot) out of my box, but I'm daring to do it!

Okay, we'll try this

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/6727/Colorswatch-2.jpg

Thought this might work for a Valentine LO.



I think I might make the dark, bright pink into a red tho.

[dawn-in-nz]

Great choice Tina. I like the white cushion with the red flowers, but wait there is no white in the swatch darn it. How about a pale grey BG with big bold red flowers, or something red not necessarily flowers.

Or black with a white outlined flower pattern like on the quilt.

[Tina]

I will put white in the kit.

[mcbowersox]

Awesome choice! I think that one was my favorite! I can't wait to see what you do with it.

I'd love to see a black and white patterned background, floral or something like the bedspread or maybe the rug. . .

And what about a glitter bg like the bronze one you made for "Sparkle of Spring" except in pink? (I think I may start requesting that background every kit :) I just love it, and having it in pink with two little girls is a dream!)

[idtwinmom]

Great choice! I have lots of ideas.

Lace doily, almost any shape works
Heart brads
Lip brads

[JenniferG]

I'm going to love to see what you do with this one Tina! Way to choose outside your box!!! It'll be great!

I think a background in black with some sort of design...or you could make a black background with some funky polka dots in the with inversing colors of the greys and pinks.

[MurlieMac]

Yay, you chose mine. On my work computer monitor the dark pink WAS actually red. So red is what I really had in mind.

[MurlieMac]

I like the idea of a black background with white flowers like on the corner of the quilt. Or a white/lt grey background with black outline flowers like one of the pillows

[sandygb]

I'd like to see the pale gray background with a floral vine sprig like on the white pillow in the inspiration photo. The vine stem and leaves would be in the dark gray and the flowers would be gradations of pink and red.

[sandygb]

How about pale pink paper with tiny red hearts scattered about.

[idtwinmom]

Duh! BGs first. LOL

Lips still works, Lace still works
Love the flowers on the pillow

[handkl]

Black with a grungy white edge
Black with dainty red/dark pink flowers
Red/dark pink background that fades into one another (almost like paint splatters, but with blending between the colours)
Grey background with a white vine

[moog25]

I'd love a black and gray marbled paper with just a hint of the light pink

[moog25]

How about a red paper with very thin squiggly stripes and embossed hearts or flowers?

[MurlieMac]

Or how about a black background with white outlined hearts or vice versa

[wuvie]

Yay, this one was top of my list! :yahoo:

Smoke gray background, faded with light to dark, lightly textured.

[Tina]

1st background, like the corner square on the quilt. Kinda ;) Didn't find who asked for it, sorry! I know it was asked for tho.


http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/Designakit8_1.jpg

[sandygb]

Tina - The suggestion came from MurlieMac in post #44. Love the paper!

[sandygb]

I would love to see some solids so we can do some cool elements:

Pale pink with faint red grid lines
A pinstripe of red, pink and white

[bamabreeze10]

how about a combination of the light gray with light pink swirles or black with a dark pink/red rose on it (like the pillow?)

[dawn-in-nz]

1st background, like the corner square on the quilt. Kinda ;) Didn't find who asked for it, sorry! I know it was asked for tho.

MurlieMac and I both suggested that one although those were MurlieMac's exact words.

[mcbowersox]

I love the first paper! The hearts are subtle, not overtly "Valentiney" which is great! It can be used for so many things!

Can't wait to see more!

you bet they're subtle!! I didn't even notice them until you posted that!! BEAUTIFUL page :)

[dawn-in-nz]

Now one in the pattern of the rug on the floor.
A plain colour (any of them) with a narrow border of stripes running vertically on the top and bottom and horizontally on the sides.

[wuvie]

dark gray with itty bitty lines of pink sounds nice
gray and pink is always a winner

[JenniferG]

I like the idea of a black background with white flowers like on the corner of the quilt. Or a white/lt grey background with black outline flowers like one of the pillows

Heres the suggestor of the black background, Tina!

[Dani B]

I love the pinstripe idea too.
very thin metalic threads alternateing with light pink and black stripes.

[Dani B]

I also love the black and white allover print that is in the quilt block on the photo. A paper made like that would be beautiful.

[Tina]

Ok, I've tried this so many different ways, but they way that looks best is with the monochrome backgrounds. Hope you like them!

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/DesignAKit8_4.jpg

[idtwinmom]

Love them!
I think this needs a red flower or flowers.
Some lace, either a round doily or a ribbon like lace strip, color unknown.

[mcbowersox]

Yeah!!!!! :yahoo: I love the silver glitter background!:yahoo:

Great choices!

[wuvie]

Ok, this is already at the top of my wish list.
Loving the hints of silver

Red bead flowers, slightly transparent with small sparkle accents

[dawn-in-nz]

Silver tassels
A silver heart swirl like on the first paper

[JenniferG]

I love those backgrounds Tina! I agree, a tassel and a red flower or flowers would be awesome! And, since I'm such a big fan of bling, some dangling bling, in the shape of the flowers in the black background with the red flower pattern.

Also, you could try a stampled frame in white, with some swirls or some such thing, kind of like the decor on the first black background you made.

[Jeanet]

Like them? Oh I love them!!

I'd like to see an oldfashioned frame sort of like this but only in silver

http://shop.roomantique.com/osc01/catalog/images/70173%20billede%20med%20guldramme%20damer%20i%20ba ad.jpg

[MurlieMac]

Tina, great job on the papers! I love them. I'd like to see a tiny daity silver filligree frame or silver filigree edge with a circle opening (does that make sense?)

[handkl]

Love the papers!!!!

1. I would like to see a silver ribbon with some curled ribbon on it with either dark pink or red on the backside of the ribbon - am I making sesne...basically a two coloured ribbon that only when curled you can see the second colour
2. A silver or white paint brush strokes photo frame - not fussy on shape
3. A cluster of white, pink, dark pink or red flowers
4. A chipboard swirl in pink or dark pink or not chipboard at all, just with silver sparkles

[Tina]

And, since I'm such a big fan of bling, some dangling bling, in the shape of the flowers in the black background with the red flower pattern.




I used just the hearts from the flower pattern instead of the whole flower :)

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/DesignAKit8_5.jpg

oh! edit. I just realized I read what you asked for wrong! I thought you wanted flowers from the 1st background IN red. Oops, my bad. Maybe you'll like these anyway. lol.

[bamabreeze10]

what about a flower element to match the black paper, but in light pink?

[idtwinmom]

Yep! Like them any way!

Still would love to see a red flower, some lace, love the idea of a filigree frame in silver

[MurlieMac]

What about a Silver spray of flowers like the flowers on the first BG with jewel hearts like the dangling hearts

[minnmom79]

a red or pink ribbon with silver along the edge and glitter all over

a wordart stamp- maybe with a design similar to the black paper edge

[Tina]

Still would love to see a red flower, some lace, love the idea of a filigree frame in silver

Some lace ;)

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/DesignAKit8_6.jpg

[idtwinmom]

yipee! Lace - and sooooo pretty too!

[idtwinmom]

This still needs another pop of red to me. Maybe a red crystal frame, any shape. And Maybe use the same hearts that are in the drops.

[handkl]

This still needs another pop of red to me. Maybe a red crystal frame, any shape. And Maybe use the same hearts that are in the drops.

I agree - something in red to make the kit pop!

[dawn-in-nz]

Tall red tulips with silver scrolls on the stem.

[mcbowersox]

I love the heart dangles! I'd love to see another element with the same red jewels.

[moog25]

Wow! I just got home from work to find the kit almost done![I]'d love a silver filligree frame with a few of those lovely red hearts. A very thin red satin ribbon would be nice too.

[mcbowersox]

What about a silver frame with the same red jeweled hearts on the corner?

[JenniferG]

Nope. You read right! And this is much better than my original suggestion. I like the heart dangle bling a lot!!!!

I used just the hearts from the flower pattern instead of the whole flower :)

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/DesignAKit8_5.jpg

oh! edit. I just realized I read what you asked for wrong! I thought you wanted flowers from the 1st background IN red. Oops, my bad. Maybe you'll like these anyway. lol.

[Tina]

Ok, here we go...

Another pop of red- check

Silver flower cluster- check

filigree frame- check!

4 elements to go :)

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/DesignaKit8_8.jpg

[Dani B]

What a stunning kit this is turning out to be!

A silver chain that would swing across the layout - not straight but with a soft curve to it.

I also would love to have a small silver locket of some kind - maybe with a tiny jewel heart in the center that we could hang from the chain.

[handkl]

A thin red ribbon (like what is wrappef around the flowers).

[idtwinmom]

Wow! Gorgeous!

I like the idea of the chain and locket.

[sueya]

Great frame! I'd like to see a red satin ribbon with silver edges and a lace edged journalling mat to match the strip of lace.

[wuvie]

I love this kit, and it will be in my shopping bag for sure :yes:
I have been working with "Tina" kits all week and I am trying to find something that none of her other kits offer ;):p
How about a small white pearl to use as a brad
and maybe a ribbon of fine white lace with a small rosett on the bow

[MurlieMac]

Ooooo (squeals of delight), this kit is turning out spectacular. Tina, you have GREAT vision!

[Tina]

I also would love to have a small silver locket of some kind - maybe with a tiny jewel heart in the center that we could hang from the chain.

The chain and locket are individual pieces so you can use the heart where ever :)

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/DesignAKit8_10.jpg

[MurlieMac]

how about a journal card with red glitter around the edges and the spray of flowers and/or hearts in a corner or a red ribbon that we could curl around the chain

[MurlieMac]

And we HAVE to have Word Art from you!!!

[handkl]

Word Art Suggestions:

1. I love you
2. Only you
3. My love
4. You are my love
5. Loving you
6. You are my world

I think that the font needs to be in some sort of script - not printed.

[Dani B]

I love the chain and tiny heart ! It's exactly the way I had pictured it in my mind. Thanks Tina !

[Pezjunky]

A journaling mat/tag thing. I picture something black, with a silver line around the border, just inside the edge, with fancy cut corners.

Some love themed word art or title in white or silver

[idtwinmom]

I like the idea of the journal mat, I'm always looking for those! Pezjunky's description sounds very pretty. There is lots of 'Love' WA available elsewhere.

[mariafer]

I missed this whole kit... I am thinking of a journal matt with silver leaf on the edges... To make it a bit more special...
