Heritage Paper Preview - Elements - A Name?

I have completed some papers for the heritage kit...here is a preview of a few of them.

Now, I would like to know what kinds of elements you would like to see in the kit.
So, please post a comment with a small list of elements. I will have basics like brads, eyelets, staples, photo corners and turns, ribbons, bows, lace and pearls...so is there anything else that you think is needed...is there anything that shouldn't be in there?

A Name

I often have trouble with names. Sometimes, they just pop into my head, but most of the time I struggle to find a name that is unique but means something.
My latest freebie is a good example. Not many people know what the name Thetis is all about. I felt I had to explain it. I don't like to have a name that has people going...huh? But, since the papers were light and feminine in addition to the colors being like the ocean...I thought it fit.

Now it's your turn. Please help with the naming of the kit. If you need to see other posts, maybe these will help:

Heritage Kit Voting - Textures

Thanks to everyone that voted for the metal styles for our Heritage kit. Here are the metals that won - Silver C, Gold D and Copper A (Copper was the overall favorite metal). I have added some texture and aging...I'll probably play a little more before I come up with final versions, but this gives you an idea.Now we need to decide what textures we want on the papers. I have four options below. Please leave a comment and vote for 2 (two) textures.

These are the same textures, but I have shown them with other colors in the palette and with some patterns. Normally, I apply the texture after the pattern, but in these examples the pattern was applied after the texture.
I look forward to hearing your votes! Have a great weekend!

Heritage Kit Voting -- Metals

This is a little later than I planned, but I have some metals for you to vote on for use with the Heritage kit I am making for my blog readers.


These are some silver styles.

Here are some gold styles.And, these are copper styles.

Please vote in the polls set up on the right side of the blog (as soon as Blogger will let me set them up), but until then, leave a comment for this post containing this information:

Favorite overall style for the color palette: silver, gold, copper or a mixture
Favorite silver style: A, B, C, or D
Favorite gold style: A, B, C, or D
Favorite copper style: A, B, C, D
Comments/Ideas

These are not necessarily the exact styles I will be using, but I wanted you to see what each of the three metal styles look like with the color palette.

Have a great day!

Marcee

I will leave the polls open until Friday night, August 24th.

Vote for Heritage Colors!

As promised I have some color palettes for you to choose from for the Heritage kit I'll be making on the blog. Please leave a comment with your vote. The poll function is having a little trouble, and with comments I can keep track of participants in order to give out the rewards later.

So choose A, B or C as your selection for the kit colors. I will look at the results next week and post the winner. Feel free to send you friends to vote - the more the merrier! Once I have colors, we'll look at some designs for papers and some metals for you to vote on. This will be YOUR kit!

Heritage Wins!

Thanks for all the votes. It looks like I'll be making a Heritage kit for my blog readers! I'll have some color schemes posted soon for you to vote on. But, to tide you over...

I have two new quick page sets at Deco-Pages! They are vintage in feel, but they could be modern, too. They are clean and simple - and just $2.50 per set!

Set 1 is blue and green with matching vellum journal boxes and silver fasteners so you can add some quotes or whatever.

Set 2 is done in pink and cream with matching vellum journal boxes and gold fasteners.

And, here's a layout example using Set 1. This is my DH's grandfather, grandmother and aunt in the 1940's. The font is LDJ Aunt Elizabeth. I resized the brads from the kit.
I don't post layouts on here much, do I? Well, I am working on a slide show. I will get it up one day - LOL! To be honest, I think I have time to scrap one page for every 10 kits I do...if I scrap that often. That's really sad - LOL.

Have a great day!

Just Rambling,
