Designers: new kit ideas
Ladies, if any of you are looking for inspiration for new kit ideas, here are two themes I really could use.
1. Tall ships: this year is the bicentennial of the War of 1812, a celebration that will last until 2014. The US and British Navies are governments are sending their tall ships to multiple East Coast cities and along the Great Lakes to Detroit. I'm talking mega photo opportunities that are begging to be scrapped. 2. Train kits for adult enthusiasts: there are lots of kits for kid-themed train sets. Any chance we could get kits or elements for model train sets or life-sized engines and passenger cars. Alternately, if there are existing kits in the store, please send me the links. Melissa |

Those sound like awesome ideas. I need a turtle themed kit for my daughters nursery. She is in love with turtles.

These are some of my favorite threads. Keep the ideas coming... I know that I (and the other designers) appreciate it!
Having said that, I'm gonna let someone else tackle the themes that were already mentioned here. I'm not sure that my style would fit the tall ships or train themes. Jessica, I don't know if this works for what you're looking for, but I did this kit last year based on Jenni's nursery with turtles: |

Libby that may work. I will send it to my daughter and see if she likes it as well. She was talking turtles but she is right at 14 1/2 weeks (Saturday is her 15 week mark) so I still have time and she may change her mind. Of course this is all going on the assumption she is having a boy. She is having a 3-d ultrasound on May 4th I think. It is a gift from her cousin (my niece) in Hawaii since she will obviously not be coming anytime soon because she is also pregnant and due the day before my daughter.

I desperately need college life (both guys and girls)--- Greek life (formals, pledging, big/littles, philanthropic) quad life, dorms, roommates, studying, libraries, hanging out in guy/ girl friendship groups, majors, ACT, financial aid, parties, moving away, etc.
I also need tennis, boys and high school (not grungy nor cute), video games (think boys and gore- call of duty etc.), teen boys and learning to drive. |

Casting a third vote for a college-themed kit! Especially if it includes reunion options/add-ons... My photos from college are not digital (gasp!), but any current photos I take from trips home are!

I would like one that would be awesome for Great Wolf Lodge pictures. Think camping/outdoors but also water park stuff. I want to be able to scrap them with the same kit. I think this kit could also be used for camping/lake fun/ pond adventures, ect. I have several camping kits but really wanted to add some water ellies or word art to it. Any takers????????
Oh and the college life one with greek stuffs would be awesome too. I have a several pages I can do with that! |

I ditto the grown-up train kit! In general I need a few themed kits for scrapping my DH and his hobbies. Things for grown-up guys: Model trains, building models, model rockets, RC toys, working on cars, building tree houses, chopping firewood....

I second the water park kit.

I would totally use a zombie kit, too. No clue why, just cause I love zombies.
I know I have begged repeatedly for this one, but I NEED a foodie kit especially take out foodie. Again, I have also begged for this one, but I NEED a hockey kit. |

I would love a Carnivale kit next February
Not carnival as in fair, but think Rio! With lots of colors, confetti, serpentines, dressed up characters,... And aimed towards kids, not adults. The few ones I've seen around all had those Venetian masks in them, but those are not used by kids at all. Aside from Southern America, Carnivale is celebrated in lots of European countries as well and I know a lot of people were looking for a suitable kit but couldn't find a single one! Here is the layout I did with our Carnivale photos this year, to give you an idea: And some more typical carnivale photos. It's actually a bit like Halloween, but without the typical orange/purple: |

lol Kim - in the US - it's so not a kid's holiday LOL It's Mardi Gras for us, and it seems to be mostly about drinking and getting beads for showing your boobs ROFL
There are some family events, but it is a more adult oriented celebration based mainly in New Orleans |

I second the zombie kit! (or is it third or fourth!? lol)

A lot of adults celebrate carnivale as well here and they end up drinking A LOT too, but for kids it's just a wonderful occasion to play dress up. The people on the vehicles in the parade throw candy at the kids and the kids themselves are loaded with confetti and serpentines to throw back. And the day before the carnivale holidays, the kids get to go to school all dressed up. They really love that. |

Yes, someone needs to do a zombie kit sometime in Fall.
Also, I will jump on the suggestion bandwagon and add this one: Pretty Pretty Please a Disney kit that is rainbow colored... not just black/red/white/yellow etc. ETA: A mermaid kit, too. My daughter is obsessed with mermaids! |
#37

I need one of these too!!

Love the marching band idea, and how about lacrosse? Are there any of those kits out there?
|

I could TOTALLY go for NOT CUTSIE zombie kit, too. Not uber-adult, either, but not cartoony.

I would love an outdoor kit but instead of camping I would love to have a lodge theme to it. I stayed at the sequoia lodge hotel last disney trip and I have tons of pics to scrap!
|

Another nod for the marching band kit. But it's gotta have some color guard stuff in it! I was in color guard during marching season!
|

So, just going to throw this out there, but this is the best kit ever. Not like I'm biased at all...

Zombie kit.
Cake decorating kit. Breakfast kit! Or rather, maybe even something bacon-specific. I know this sounds odd, but you don't know how many bacon pictures I have to scrap. Seriously, about a million. Can I get some love for a marshmallow kit, yes please? Like, marshmallow shooters, s'mores, etc?

Thanks to Heather, I can finally stop begging for that Boy Scouts kit! Do you know how exciting it is to see something in the store that you've been waiting for!?!

Andrea, seeing you pin all those on pinterest makes me swoon over them each and every time! I think a kit like that would be fabulous!

I would REALLY love an "older baby" kit. Preferably with boy colors! With things like first tooth, crawling, rolling over, first steps etc. My kiddos are almost 9 months old and I can't seem to find a themed kit for this stage Everything I've found has baby pastels, and I prefer bright colors.
I'd also like a multiples (twins, triplets etc) mini kit or add on kit. Kind of specific, but I can wish!
