I am going to make an Add On Pack, for your goodie, so let's hear suggestions as to what you want in your Goodie B.A.G. Maybe you can be the next BAG lady or BAG man for the guys on here. :D

Here's the link to the Goodies Challenge if you want to play and get the completed AOP for free:

[GrandmaCrys]

Oh yea! I get to be first! How about some hanging hearts.....some candy hearts with those silly sayings on them (Be Mine...U R Cool...Love Me...etc.)...and/or some chocolate kisses...oh! oh! oh! how 'bout a leprechaun? Oh. wait! That's next month's suggestion!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: How about a red jeweled heart? What about a heart on a stick, sort of like a lollipop. A Love Overlay would be nice.

OK, that's enough from me - somebody else's turn! :D

[Christine]

those sound great, Crys! I am adding one of my ideas in here so I don't forget. :lol: I would like to see those alphabet round beads on a string thing that spells out sweetheart. What do you think?

[JenniferG]

great ideas! how bout a more boyish colored theme? background in tan and blue. don't know if you think it would go well or not, just a suggestion. just some more gender neutral colors.

[tripsmom1974]

a beaded heart wire frame maybe some foil red hearts hanging on a silver string a heart frame for a boy and some netural backgrounds and some girly backgrounds.

[Christine]

hi tripsmom, so glad you came to play!

There is some green in that gray BG, so I think I will play with that a bit to give you more gender neutral options. Keep the great suggestions coming!

[GrandmaCrys]

those sound great, Crys! I am adding one of my ideas in here so I don't forget. :lol: I would like to see those alphabet round beads on a string thing that spells out sweetheart. What do you think?

Oh! I like that. Gee, you have such good designing ideas! :rofl: :rofl:

Thought of another one! How about those cut out doily hearts in red and white? They used to be so popular!

[Christine]

I need some more suggestions from people or you know Crys has a dang good chance of getting chosen and then I will definitely have to make a leprechaun. :lol:

[idtwinmom]

A square or rectangle wire frame the same as the round one.

[idtwinmom]

A flower with the petal colors reversed (dark pink petals, light middle).

[idtwinmom]

A couple BG's that pick up the teal from the beads.

[idtwinmom]

I like the red foil hearts that were mentioned as well as your bead string (maybe one that goes up & down, instead of side to side).

[Christine]

waffle waffle LOL

[JenniferG]

How bout something wirey, like that twisted wire frame? Maybe a square version with a slightly curved bend at the corners?

[JenniferG]

hanging beads with the wires...

[JenniferG]

Maybe a wired heart frame with bead dangles off to the side

[JenniferG]

I like that belt and buckle. Maybe you can make one in a boyish color? I dont know...no idea on how another one would work...

This is fun...bringing up my post count like this!

[gram2nic]

1. How about a chicken wire mat only the wire is bent in the shape of hearts

2. A small note paper torn and tattered with a border of hearts

3. A heart with a key

I do agree with adding some neutral tones...we do love our guys too!

[GrandmaCrys]

I need some more suggestions from people or you know Crys has a dang good chance of getting chosen and then I will definitely have to make a leprechaun. :lol:

WOULD EVERYONE PLEASE BACK OFF ON THE SUGGESTIONS?
I NEED THAT LEPRECHAUN!


:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[nekobus]

How about little tiny x and o charms to match the little hanging heart?

a little mirror heart to match the broken border. Maybe a whole one and one broken in a few pieces?

a poofy bow with lots of little loops made out of the same ribbon

[ReneT]

a hot pink heart overlay

[ReneT]

splotches of hot pink and/or silver glitter

[ReneT]

a darker pink flower with a heart in the center of it instead of whatever that is called that is usually the center of the flower (did that make any sense at all?), some random flower petals

[Raphne]

Rofl-- so, how about a leprechaun?

I think that pretty flower needs some company. Others have suggested additional flowers, which would be great, but how about some foliage? and maybe some baby's breath?

I'd like to see more wire elements. A beaded wire swirl to go with the wire element in the kit. Maybe a square (or rectangular) twisted wire frame. Maybe a wire flower. . . of course, you just did one lol! But this one could have beads on it. Interlocked wire hearts. A set of 3 interlocked wire stars. Or maybe any of the above suggestions in a more solid metal like the x & o elements.

Oh-- and i love your square bead idea too!

[GrandmaCrys]

Raphne, I love your foliage and baby's breath ideas!

Thanks so much for jumping on the leprechaun bandwagon!!! If we get enough people, maybe we can mutiny! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Christine]

If you want me to be making a leprechaun, somebody had better be finding me a cute picture of one. :D

[JenniferG]

Don't know how you'd work one into the bonus, but here's a few images for you:

[ReneT]

Maybe we should save the leprecaun for a March green St. Patty's Day page kit. I'm already starting to work on my SPD avatar because my heritage is Irish (actually Indian and Irish). Weird combination of nationalities, I know, but I prefer to think of myself as unique instead of weird. :p But I think DH just thinks I'm the latter of the two. hee hee

[GrandmaCrys]

Rene, you need to know the leprechaun history - my oldest grandson dressed as Peter Pan for Halloween 2007 - for most of the time since, I've been begging Chris for a leprechaun! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Jennifer, thanks for having my back! Those L's are adorable, especially the tiny last one! :D

[ReneT]

Oh, now it makes sense. I couldn't figure out why we would need a leprecaun in the X & O kit! :think:

[jennip94]

Wow these are wonderful ideas. I really liked the one about the candy kisses and the heart-shape gems. The flowers and the random flower petals are also very good ideas. I'd like to see any of those.

Oh!!!! What I would really, really like, though, is a doodle-ish overlay kinda heart thing or some BG w/doodly hearts. Sorry I'm new at this (my first post) and not quite up on all the correct lingo yet! Thanks.

[GrandmaCrys]

jennip94, welcome to DSP, the friendliest digi scrapping site on the web!! Glad you jumped in and your suggestions sound good to me and your lingo is just great! :D

hi Jenni! so glad you made your 1st post here w/ us! Welcome, welcome! :D:D:D:D

[Christine]

Oh, now it makes sense. I couldn't figure out why we would need a leprecaun in the X & O kit! :think:

for some silly reason, she thinks I should be able to draw one :lol: :lol::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[Christine]

speaking of which if I ever manage to do so, I better hear lots of ooooohs and ahhhhhhs :lol:

[lbjiowa]

Or some pretty sparkly red, pink, crystal heart gems dangling from dainty chains?

[GrandmaCrys]

speaking of which if I ever manage to do so, I better hear lots of ooooohs and ahhhhhhs :lol:

Not to worry your pretty little head, off; I've been working on *Hero Worship* for over a year!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Christine]

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[ReneT]

Welcome jennip94! Do we call you Jenni?

Chris we all KNOW you can design Leprecauns, Unicorns, knomes, and all kinds of mystical creatures because you have the DSP MAGIC!!!!!!! We all ooohhhh and aaaawww over your stuff all the time. Don't you hear us?

[Christine]

do stick figures count?! :rofl:

[ReneT]

Not if you're me, cuz I can't draw a straight line with a ruler!!!! :rofl::rofl::rofl:

[GrandmaCrys]

Rene! We must be long lost twins. I cannot draw a straight line with a ruler either. Neither can I cut a straight line with scissors, even if the straight line is already there for me! So artistically challenged! :(

[ReneT]

Amen sister. I feel your pain.

[Cupcake]

I would like to see some soft fuzzy stripes those would be so pretty Maybe some sloppy stitching like old patches on jeans but around something pretty like a heart A dangle of diamonds would be so nice sorta like a dangley earing but sparkley and pretty

[Christine]

Will power is not allowed at DSP! LOL! It's like a disease here (will power, that is) and must be avoided at all costs (pun intended).

And you know I'm going to scrap that photo AS SOON AS that kit is done!
