Scrap Girls Digital Scrapbooking Forum: My Black Dress Of Kit Making. - Scrap Girls Digital Scrapbooking Forum

I started a Topic about what people would suggest for a Starter Kit for a future Designer. Then I found some items that I thought would be great to add to it. Well, instead of talking to myself in the topic I thought I'd just blog about it. And if I make to many typos it's because I recently went and had acrilgel nails put on. Yep, fakers. And I still can't hit the keys right! lol. (but they sure look purdy )

Ok, on to the list... This is a ever growing list So I'll change it often once I figure out how to do that. And if someone actually reads this and has great ideas I'll add them too.

Ro got me started by giving me a list of the basics (in purple) and I want to start filling in finds from Scrapgirls that I think would be great. The only problem is I'm not a designer, I think I have potential but I have a lot to learn so if a real designer needs to set me straight please do so.

I also need to add that there are some incredible designs and for some I just had to pick one, just to keep my list simple. I found that out today when looking at papers. Talk about hard to choose from! The goal is to keep to the very basics. To answer the question, what would be the basics to help make a kit.
