Sorry, I got so excited about Be-Musing, I forgot to add the color swatch. I don't know if I picked out the best colors from the photo or not.

Oh, these colors are grogeous except I think I'd add the yellow

[jemtred]

I was thinking of the yellow too Murlie - it just cotrasts so nicely with purple

[stitchmich]

How about this one? :D I had the yellow in and took it out. I told you I wasn't good with picking out the colors. :lol:
Also, I deleted the other one from Flickr before I thought about it so I am replacing my swatch with this one because the other might not show up anymore. Sorry about that... I didn't mean to take over the thread here with my repeating photos.

Cute colours! Ok, lets go with this one, I haven't done a bright kids kit in a while, so this would be perfect!

Lets have some paper suggestions! ;-)

[renee s]

What fun! How about some doodles on on the papers- like a child's drawings.

[stitchmich]

Oh yay! How about tone on tone polka dots in one color and tone on tone stars in another color. Something doodley sounds great too. Can we maybe include some of the dark blue in the swatch as well?

[jemtred]

A denim style paper with some scratchy scratches on it?

[stitchmich]

A denim style paper with some scratchy scratches on it?

oh, yeah! love this idea!

[bludlfn003]

If we're going boy kit for this, I'm think the red dirtied up some. Boys are just so messy that a dirtied up paper sounds good.

[mariafer]

I would like some thin stripes... Horizontal if possible and lots of them... In every color. I would also love some circle fun. Anytype circle would be great..

[domino44]

If we going boys maybe a rope swing with a board on the end

[handkl]

A denim style paper with some scratchy scratches on it?

LOVE THIS IDEA!!!!!!!!!!

This is a must in this kit.

I would like some thin stripes... Horizontal if possible and lots of them... In every color. I would also love some circle fun. Anytype circle would be great..

And I second stripes!!!

I would love to see a background with doodled shapes and random scratchy marks OR that could be an overlay and could have a simple background paper given the other requests are for patterns and busy backgrounds.

[Robyn Gough]

Oooh, so loving these ideas, Was hoping to get some papers done last night but my brain was fried, will try and make a start on them tonight with any luck! ;-)

[renee s]

Can't wait to see what you come up with! :)

[Robyn Gough]

A denim style paper with some scratchy scratches on it?

Love this idea, to go with an authentic denim look, I added some more shades of blue, but here is a washed and worn denim.

[renee s]

Oooooh! love that! Gorgeous! I like mariafer's suggestions of stripes, maybe using all the other colors, and bludlfn003 idea of a red dirtied up one- possibly with a subtle graph pattern to it- and my suggestion would be for a page with fun doodled stars and circles. So many of the kits are for girls- I think it will be fun to have a kit to scrap some of my boys' pictures.

[stitchmich]

That first paper is gorgeous!! I like all the other ideas. I'd still like a tone on tone paper with dots or stars. And how about a grungy overlay.

Ok, maybe not thin strips, I didn't want it to be TOO busy as it can sometimes be hard to scrap with, but here are some thick horizontal stripes.

Perfect!!

[renee s]

Wow! I gasped when I saw the papers! Perfect is right!

[Robyn Gough]

Ok ladies, I am going to try and finish this one off nice and quick, and have just finished the final paper which I will show the preview of shortly, in the meantime, feel free to start suggesting elements.

[Robyn Gough]

Here is the final paper, although I still have to do the add on papers, so if there are more you are want feel free to add more suggestions.

Plus, the elements!

http://digiscrapart.com/bemuseme/BeMuseMe5-Paper4.jpg

[renee s]

Love it! How about a couple of stacked crumpled brown paper frames (like paper bag material) One just peaking out behind the other, and perhaps some grungy or torn tape in the corner. And a funky arrow sticker would be fun. Thinks boys here, ladies!

Oooh fabulous ideas Renee! Ok, a paper arrow sticker.. will work on some more of these as well.

[Robyn Gough]

Ooops, forgot to add the preview!!

Ok, not quite grungy, thought it would be cool to have transparent tape... but then after thought of gaff tape, maybe for the add on.

[Robyn Gough]

And how about a grungy overlay.

A grungy 'lets get dirty' overlay. ;-)

[stitchmich]

Oh my!! what a surprise to see all this done this morning. It's just awesome!

How about some heavy duty, industrial staples.
A zig-zagy border, crayon drawn like the arrow.
OR X's and O's border.
OR X and O elements on brown paper like the arrow.
Or a border that looks like tire tracks across the page.
a torn brown paper corner.

[Robyn Gough]

Oooh, love your idea's Michelle, I will have to use some of them in the add on. I have actually done a few more elements, (I couldn't get focused on another kit so kept going with this one) while the other side of the world was in bed! LOL

I have just one element to go and I am done. Want to give me some names, so I can get this baby wrapped up?

http://digiscrapart.com/bemuseme/BeMuseMe5-Element7.jpg

[Robyn Gough]

OR X's and O's border.


Ok, added the X & O's border as the final item. :yahoo:

Now we need a name...

Hard at Play has it! ;-)

[domino44]

Wow just awesome and I have the perfect picture for this one!

[renee s]

Wow! When you get on a roll, you really get on a roll! What a fun surprise to wake up to!

[bludlfn003]

Love this kit, and I have so many boy pics I can scrap with it.

[bludlfn003]

for the Add on kit, can we have a little more orange, I think it needs something more orange than on stripe on one paper. Ya know what I mean.

[stitchmich]

Well, I for one am glad you couldn't focus on any other kit yet, because I'm pretty anxious to play with this one! Super job!

[renee s]

I was thinking the same thing, bludlfn003- maybe one with orange, and more yellow, and another very colorful one like the striped one, but with colorful stars or circles. Love the speed that this kit was made. WTG- Robyn!

[Robyn Gough]

Yup, I have done one paper for the add on with lots of orange and blue on it.

Thansk Renee! I tend to have more time on weekends so try and get as much done as I can then. It is hard being in different timezones tho because often there is no one around when I am trying to get the kit finished off! LOL I meant to do more during the week this week but have just been to exhausted by the time I get home from work to concentrate on doing much, fingers crossed I do better this week! ;-)

Will try and get some more colour in the add on too. Will see what I can come up with. ;-) More requests for elements etc are welcome! ;-)

[mariafer]

Man... I left for a day and came back to find a beautiful kit! Wonderful Robyn!

[renee s]

More elements, hmmm... well I always like an add on pack to have it's own unique frame. Perhaps square, made out of colorful chipboard, or pieces of torn note paper stapled or taped together, or a grungy poloroid frame- with bent corners. And what about some colorful buttons with frayed string sticking out the center.

[Robyn Gough]

Ok, the winners of the kit are as follows...

Colour - renee_s
Random - janetklm
Name - bludlfn003
