#NSDSC15 | Challenge 04 - Mix Those Kits with Lisa Truesdell, Keisha Campbell, and April Foster
Tags:We're challenging you to try to find a bunch of combinations for mixing products from your kits! Scrapbook paper in a pocket, Card stamps on a journal card, anything you can dream up!
Lisa Truesdelland April Foster: (Lisa)
Both of us opted to mix from kits that were already out on our desks - I had transferred everything from my desk at home to a box before heading out to Bowling Green. We both used products from the last few months of kits and dipped into each other's goodies to finish up our layouts. I couldn't help but use the stamp set from Paige Evans'Make It Big class. It's so much fun to work with!
Mixing kits is a great way to squeeze another layout or two out of your leftovers - and it's a great way to try new color schemes too!

The baloons, that elephant and the moon! Why oh why don't I have those kits?? I would of course also need a baby, but I've borrowed one for a mini album before, so I'm sure I could find one to scraploft this LO as well! (I gave the mini to the parents after making the album, the mom was a customer at my LSS, so it isn't as creepy as it sounds)

This is such a hard challenge when most of your kits are killed. Ended up mixing some really old kits and I think it works but at least it's done.

Done and downloaded. I don't have any kits, but I have wood veneers (2 varieties), 2 sets of stamps, chalkboard die cuts, and some hexagon accent stickers. I made journaling cards like your contributed. It is posted under projects.

I *always* mix up kits for the best of both worlds, even on simple layouts like these!

Here is a quick card - with scraps from a number of kits and my stash, plus a piece I had cut from an "old" cut file and an old printable label.
