Default River Rose's 80's kit

I'm a girl from the late 80's (turning 30 in 5 months) and know & remember very little of that time so my question is, how versatile is it?

I have not scrapped with it, so I cannot really say. However, you can always look at her gallery category for a few pages that her CT/Sugarbabes made: https://www.sweetshoppecommunity.com...ry.php?cat=692

Thank you for linking her up, Sherly! That's a great place to check and see

Jennifer, I would like to think it's versatile (wink, wink) There are always the basics to work with, flowers, frames, stars, paints, etc.) And, for this kit, there is plenty to do a music themed layout with the radio, records, cassette tapes and so forth. I had a really fun time using it even though I was too busy to dig out a photo to scan of myself in the 80's I just made a photo-less page instead.

I was born mid 70's and I recall very little from the 70's. I'd still love if someone did a child of the 70's kit though. The 80's were much more memorable to me. I was definitely an 80's child!

I was born in the 70's too so my best childhood memories were in the 80's as well.

I'd say the colors are pretty versatile. Brights are back in and all. If you remember things like boom boxes or cassette tapes at all, you could scrap about that... Converse are back in too, and I saw a kid wearing a pair of those plastic slatted sunglasses just today!

I'm good at being able to spin a kit to make it work for me, no matter how themed it is. Lots of years of doing this and being on various CTs where I needed to work with kits that were themed for things I had no pictures for...

I say, if you like it and can come up with at least one layout to use it for, then go for it! I will sometimes make a reason to scrap with a kit because I like it so much. Mostly though, I can separate out the 'like' from the 'oh my gosh, I HAVE to have this kit!' feelings.

I think it would be very versatile. Perfect if you do a colour run too! The bright colours look great against black and white photos especially, and the gallery samples show that it can be used for different themes. Any happy photos would work with this kit.

I'm so not an exerciser though a colour run would be cool to experience.

Might just put it in my wishlist for now
