For me it is red, white and blue. I just bought 3 Americana type kits. There were a couple more I wanted but I kept the obsession under control.
What digi item gets you every time? What is your weakness?

I love flowers! I eye up the flowers in a kit and they make me decide whether to buy it or not! :thumbup:
My most recent page (https://www.sweetshoppecommunity.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=142040) kind of shows off my flower addiction, lol, I normally keep it under control with me having 2 boys though! ;)

I'm afraid digi in itself is a weakness for me, which is why I probably buy so much. :blink:

hmmm....everything. LOL
Seriously, doodles and felt are a must have for me. Like Zoe's You Rock, those felty stars just call to me. And Shawna's swooshy swoony doodles.....so irresistible. Those are just a few examples though! :p

For me, it's kits with lots of colours, but include some black or white "relief". I guess I just find it easier to scrap that way...
And good templates. Always buying good templates!

I love holiday kits. 4th of July kits I love, but I didn't take any pictures this year for the 4th, so I won't be getting any, which sucks because I have 3 in my wishlist. LOL!

Theme elements... on any subject... that gets my mojo going to mix and match all the different theme items into layouts or hybrid learning tools for my kiddo... oh and polka dot ribbons tied in a bow... :wub:

I have a major weakness for any kind of independence day kits too. They are so boy friendly and we always have such a nice time as a family on the 4th so I always end up with oodles of pictures. I love just about all holiday or theme kits too. Non-theme kits are nice too but when I start out scrapping with a themed kit I already know what I'm going to scrap so it's nice to have direction. Sometimes with non themed kits I get to the part of the page where it's time to title/journal and I'm lost lol.

Just about everything. I do tend to gravitate towards stars, felt and stitches though. BUT, I buy everything else too!!!! :) I buy the least of flower stuff (I do have some!) just because I am in a house of blue. :)

Neenee- do you shadow doodles? I want to use them more but am unsure.
And what is kraft paper?

doodles - no I don't shadow them. I generally lay them on my background as if they are drawn on
kraft paper - the background:

I love flowers and kits with bold and bright colors! Generally anything that will be fabulous for pages of my boys. But I would be in huge trouble if I had a girl- pink is my weakness and it makes me sad that I dont get to buy too many girly kits since Im in a house of blue.
carriesmom
07-05-2010, 12:35 PM
Bright colors, anything girly, felt, stitching, doodles, and any sort of little bit I can toss onto a page. I love little pieces and bits.
Kim Mauch
07-05-2010, 12:59 PM
Well, I love bright colors and non-distressed papers... but mostly I just find a few favorite designers and have to buy everything they make. :w00t:

95% of the time no. The only time I do is if I happen add a stroke to it so it looks more like a sticker.

07-05-2010, 01:48 PM
I love everything!! lol Definitely drawn more to the boy kits but I love the girly ones too! Aweseome patterned papers, twine/string, stars and circles are must-haves on my pages :)

Chantal Miller
07-05-2010, 01:58 PM
I love pink kits and themed kits with lots of clipart. Also Alpha's. I seldom use them but a good alpha is usually the deciding factor on a Kit i'm iffy on. And lately I seem to be a sucker for scalloped templates too.
AmberK
07-05-2010, 02:16 PM
Oh yeah- I forgot to add that Im a SUCKER for Cindy's templates!!!!!

I'm a sucker for alphas and date elements. I LOVE felt elements, and some good kraft or patterned papers (non-distressed). I don't really mind whether a kit is themed or not (I usually make it work), but the colours are what attract me - I love bright, bold colours the most!
nikkiARNGwife
07-05-2010, 03:07 PM
I loovveee it when kits include fabulous wordart...that way I don't have to agonize over titles! lol...after 5+ years I'm about burned out on titles ;)
Also papers...gorgeous, colorful, patterny papers...pretty much just like all the kits at SSD..nothing is more aggravating to me than to buy a kit with fabulous elements and it have about 7-8 drab boring papers..or papers that aren't anything alike...I love me some layered papers :) That's why I love unzipping SSD kits...never ever disappointed in the papers...
kscwgirl
07-05-2010, 03:23 PM
date elements.
nanienamou
07-05-2010, 03:30 PM
Templates are the big thing for me. I love exploring different styles that I cannot achieve on my own. I usually think that all my non-template pages look the same. :unsure:
I also love colour. I need lots of patterned paper and one paper with all the color scheme in it. It just ties in the lo. I'm not drawn to neutral colours at all.
I also love when a kit is full with elements, since I am not a minimalist scrapper. The kits I get from SSD never disappoint me, they are extremely easy to work with for me.
I have three boys and I still use girly kits to scrap them. I also use flowers for them. I have no problem with that. lol! :p

07-05-2010, 03:38 PM
Theme theme theme for me too!
Bright, clear colors.
And if a kit has a sun, cloud, rainbow I always want to buy it, even if I have 73000 kits with the same thing!!
Sharon Kay
07-05-2010, 03:51 PM
I know people will not be surprised here ... but ROBOT kits!! :wub:
Second in line would be date elements ... and then theme kits ... I like bowling kits ... boyish kits ... non-flowery type kits.

A fabulous travel kit always ends up in my cart! I love all the elements that go with it.
Doodles, felt, kraft paper...love all of them!

Da same for me!
Well, I love flowers, heritage kits, soft feminine kits... but I go to funky too! It depends on current mood I think...
Balinda
07-05-2010, 05:32 PM
vintagy items always get me...fabby word art...adore acrylic alphas...stitching and leafy things/greenery will almost be an automatic cart addition or the very least wish listed...I also look for kits that I can use for both girl and boy since I have one of each..I use tons of boy kits with my DD though and vice versa for my boy
Well for me, I think a nice striped paper in a kit is a must, but really kits that have a bunch of elements and papers that are fun do it for me. Any theme as long as they look fun and are VERY high quality. I do get very picky. That's why I shop here all the time I guess! LOL!

Stitches and doodles.

I really love templates! I very often change them -- flip, rotate, move around, add another photo, etc. But I love starting out with a template. I have to make myself not use them.
I'm also really drawn to kraft paper and stuff, but am not as successful actually using it! LOL!
Soft pink, and purple...anything with wonderfully soft patterned pink papers and I'm so there. That and gorgeous soft silk flowers with wonderful jewels.

I'm always a sucker for flowers. Always have been, always will be. I'm also HUGE on awesome patterened papers. I love plaids, stripes, flowers, polka dots, damask...I love it ALL!! :wub:
HeatherKS
07-05-2010, 09:48 PM
I just love stuff! I love a kit to be packed with all sorts of elements - string, ribbons, doodles, stitching, flowers - anything I can pile on a page. :) I'm not nearly as drawn to buy kits that only have a few elements in them.
misfitinmn
07-05-2010, 10:39 PM
Here's my dirty little secret. I could be convinced to practically buy ANYTHING that is shadowed well in the preview. Seriously, I could have NO use, but if the preview is shadowed well and I can see a good variety of elements and papers, it's all in my willpower not to buy it.
But, the things I don't resist are the bright colors, and anything with generic elements like stars, ribbons, circles, etc etc. The cluster-able elements.

It's hard to pick a single weakness... I am collecting Digi-Kits like I collect fabric.
Biggest weaknesses are probably themed kits, paisley papers, & anything country/western/cowboy, & cooking/baking/food kits.

Lauren Grier. LMAO. I tend to buy quite a bit of her stuff. Although, I haven't been buying as much lately because I've been on a bit of a scrapping slump/break. I think slump is the better word.:thumbdown:

another weakness of mine is beach kits. I think I have bought nearly every kit related to the beach in any way. There are a couple more I want to get still though.

I LOVE Americana kits. RWB gets me every time.
I also have a beach kit obsession.
And kraft papers. Or patterned papers. I'm a sucker for a gorgeous paper, it's a holdover from my traditional scrapping days. I still pick up pretty pieces of paper when I'm in Michael's, just cuz I love it. One of these days I'll get around to using them, lol.
And alphas. I love a good alpha.
jessica31876
07-06-2010, 01:22 PM
True...but I also love all the really pretty winter-snow related kits (and Ive bought a few too...I am secretly coveting the one KCB and Meg made. They have been in my cart several times and I just do not know what I would use them for but they are so dang cute LOL).

What can I say, I get drawn to seasonal kits. Love beachy ones or more "sea" related, though I have a limited amount of beach pictures. Pretty fall kits too, but I got better at not buying all I see every year. Same goes for winter/christmas kits.
In general I can never say what hooks me. But I am allergic to bad colour schemes. Colours don't rock the preview? No chance I buy it.

07-06-2010, 05:36 PM
I'm a total sucker for a good boy kit, and orange. I love orange.
gotta have patterned papers. lots. i ♥ boy kits (duh :p), but i'm not in the 'no flowers' school of thought so i'll use either really.
mostly i just like to scrap :D
