Arizona Kit

Designer: Dear Friends Designs
I cant remember if I've requested this before or not - but we travel to AZ every year to do some hiking, etc. I'd love an Arizona or desert themed kit - I have one that I use - but we've gone 6 times - and I scrap multiple pages each trip - and I'm getting sick of using that one - even tho it is cute! LOL!

I'm thinking mountains (no snow on them), cactus, hiking, swimming, etc.

Any takers?!
 
Lisa want too, Lisa want too!

...dirt, rocks, Prickly Pears, Joshua Tree, backpack, compass...
 
Could GS ever, or has GS ever, done a "50 States"-type thing for monthly buffet??

I feel like I recall this being brought up in the recent past; I'd love a TX kit--we've got so much going on down here that could easily be made into a kit: Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Stars, Dallas Mavericks, Reunion Tower, "the green building," Texas Rangers, the Alamo, Austin's weird-ness, UT longhorns, the state fair, etc.

I'm sure there's a lot of generic stuff that could be shared between the hot/cold states and recognizable landmarks for a lot of places!

And if we're taking requests, I'd also love kits for Washington, DC and Portland, OR. :)
 
Trina, where do you go and when for your AZ trips? Is that going to change with your newest announcement? My parents just bought a "winter home" down there in Sun City- (old people land- have to be 55 to live there)- so we plan on visiting down there 2 times a year- probably Thanksgiving and Spring break.
 
We usually go sometime in December - to Mesa - just outside of Phoenix - it too is a retirement type community
 
Mike has relatives in Gilbert- so I know where Mesa is...... just didn't realize it too was a retirement community! He has several cousins that are down in that area- who have lived there and they aren't that old! I think we are safe in saying that most of AZ is a "retirement-type" of community because of all the snow-birds that go there for the winter time. Are you still planning on this next December? If so, maybe we can meet you out there sometime? Since I can never get to MN!
 
Oh I could use a AZ Kit too. My husband went to Scottsdale for a work trip, but went on some fun little outings and I haven't scrapped any of those pictures.
 
LOL LOL LOL! True Missi - I just keep posting hoping someone will say something ;) I'm anxious - and they're the next photos on my list to scrap!! LOL
 
I love both the ideas from Trina and Lisa. This kit could work awesome for AZ AND SoCAL!!!!.... :D
 
Make sure to post in the forum if you guys do a Phoenix area meet up :) I live in Peoria, a Phx suburb (closer to El Mirage than Mesa, but I'm willing to travel)
 
Sounds good! Peoria has that fun veteran's park that we went to by the freeway- it's about 10 minutes from my parent's winter home! I am SO EXCITED to go back now!
 
For sure...we will all have to meet up and take lots of photos to scrap! lol I know my way around pretty good so I am game to go anywhere!
 
oh wow! all the Arizonans are coming out of the woodwork!

I live in SE Arizona and I know another designer here that lives in Arizona!

we should def have some type of get together

as far as a kit goes.... um..... I would really have to get my mojo up for that. Living in the desert is a novelty at first, but then ya get tired of looking at cactus, and
4 times in the last 2 weeks, we've seen scorpions in our house. ughhhh!!!

they have to be the creepiest things alive. they didn't stay alive for long, though, once I saw them. thos flat-bottom frying pans work really well as a scorpion swatter!
 
P.S. I could be bribed to make an Arizona kit if you all promise me a layout or 2 with it, lol!

but I'll have to work on it after I finish the robotics kit that was requested. https://forums.gingerscraps.net/showthread.php?16779-Robotics-kit

P.S.S. ok I keep thinking of things... lol

I used to live in Mesa for a long time so I know the Phx area really well. We could meet in that general area. It seems that is a natural place to meet and lots of choices for things to do and places to eat. I'm all for going out to lunch somewhere (olive garden, anyone?)

Is that *asking* for a 1 kit CT call? I'm IN! I really LOVE your stuff, but I just haven't mastered the fantasy stuff yet enough to go asking for a full time CT spot.

I need this, and I need it now ...but I'll wait ...please!
 
I gave in and just scrapped my AZ pics - but I have about 19 mos of scrapping and i'll be to another trip (we skipped the year my 3rd was born - as he was only 2-3 wks old when they went)...maybe by the time I'm caught up to that point we'll have a fun kit here ;)
