Daddy's Little Girl...

Happy Monday everyone! I'm typically not a happy-go-lucky Monday morning type of gal, but I'm hopeful that this week will be MUCH better than last week and that I will get a lot of scrappy stuff done. I'm also glad to have a little weeklong break from class - it will be great just to head home after work to spend time with the fam!

Today, I'm sharing a layout I made a couple of weeks ago using a fun BG line. I'm pretty happy with this one for a couple of reasons....mostly, I was happy that I was able to put together this layout using just a few remaining pieces left in a kit that I receive monthly. This is the first year that I have been trying the kits and although I love getting the scrappy stuff in the mail, I'm finding that they are starting to stack up...and I'm REALLY hesitant to dismantle the kit and put away all of the individual pieces where they would typically go in my stash... Instead, I put them in large acid free zip lock bags in a "to-do" bin with high hopes of finishing off another project...

I'm wondering if any of you have the same problem out there? And if so, what do you do when you get to the end of the kit and have just a few papers and elements remaining??? Would love to get some advice on this and hear what some of you scrappers are doing out there... Okay - on to the LO....
Don't you just LOVE those Bloomers! Hope everyone has a great Monday!

The layout is gorgeous!!! I haven't scrapped in awhile (my time has been taken with cards for the past six months or more)...but that's going to change soon! I'm antsy to scrap again.

As far as what to do with the leftovers? I usually just throw them in the stash....and eventually they either get used for something else, or given away.

Love the page! I also get kits, and in the past I would really use them up, so if all I had at the end was uninspiring bits, I'd break the kit down. Lately, with the Bar, I've been so busy that I've been keeping them to use. What kits do you get?
