Stretching a themed kit

I don't have this one, but I only see a few elements that seem really focused on job search/new job -- the job search card, the new job/old job word strips. I heart my job brad and the pencil. the girl, I would use the spot healing tool (I think it's available in PSE to remove new job from the sign, or paint over and add your own text. I only see one paper that might be a bit limiting, but can't see the whole papers. Everything else looks like it could slot into some everyday kind of lists or accomplishments. Workspace could be your scrapping space, or kitchen prep area. Lightbulb could be used to highlight an idea. As I'm looking I am really loving that light bulb and the telephone, the flowers, buttons and hearts. Yes and hooray could be used on a story about scoring new PC memory, or EHD or organization success

 

Kim's Girl Friday kit reminds me of job hunting/working, if you're wanting more job related kits.

 

Well, if you are wanting themed stuff and using it only for that theme, you will have to use it over and over because of it being a rather specific theme. I get it, I have that with dog kits. But the layouts look different because of not using the same things on every layout. There is enough variety in that kit that you don't have to use the same stuff on every layout. JMO

 

Subjects -
A Day in the life.... (M/Tu/Wed sticker, girl (cover new job).
Routine/Schedule - For the record, pen, clock, telephone, Clip, Light Bulb, Yes, Hooray,
Out with the Old, In with the New - Modify New Job/Old Job, High Five, Yes, Hooray

Seems it can be used for Spring Pages, flowers, sunny days, boquets, botanical garden adventure, stuck at home, meetings, etc.

 

That will happen with theme kits... it's the photos and journaling that will change it up when added.

 

I still think you could use Girl Friday for job hunting. Plus you already own it. Use the phone, the pen, pencil, notebook paper, office supplies and clock to document making calls for jobs, filing out applications, waiting to hear back etc. Think of kits you have that have a computer that you could use for zoom interviews, etc.

This one from Forever Joy would be good too. Use the hold on please for waiting to hear back with the phone, name badge etc.


I think you already have this one from Allison and it could be used for zoom interviews and filing out online applications.



This one could be used for your daily routine of checking for new jobs.



I used a pet kit for this layout of my DD leaving on her mission. I liked the farewell and miss you word art. Try to think outside the box and don't be afraid to tweak word art and such to make it fit what you need for your layout.


Hope that helps!

 

@littlekiwi

with that kit I see potential to make pages about:

1. birthday (hooray, yes, for the record)
2. scrapbook space or crafting area or home office (workspace WA)
3. getting in touch with friends (phone)
4. a trip, a hike, a new restaurant, a new hobby (new adventure)
5. comparison pages (old, new: modify the WA) cars, bikes, rooms, wardrobe, computers, etc.

 

got it!!!!! You are looking for other kits that could be used for job hunting. OMG, I completely misunderstood you. I shouldn't be replying to anyone w/ the headache that I have. LOL!!!

 

I would say anything with clocks!

 

@littlekiwi Jennifer, don't forget re-coloring to stretch the kit you are using a lot. Also creating your own word art with alphas and fonts might be useful for some of your job interview pages.

 

Lol! You're not alone... I misunderstood as well and gave stretch your stash ideas!

Jennifer, I like the font and adding alphas to the layouts. Even using basic elements that you do have, and I know you have a stash of styles, so you can change those basic elements to other fun styles!

 

@littlekiwi - I saw you scrapped a page with Micheline's Case of the Blahs kit and thought that would be a great kit to document the tiring job hunting process you've been going through.
