Design Challenge #14 - March/April 2014
Color Swatch for Design Challenge #14 - March/April 2014
After a long hiatus, THE DESIGN CHALLENGE IS BACK!!! Have you missed it??? I sure have! This will be a 2 month challenge. Hex Codes: #401753, #5d1d5a, #f5f38e, #b1d58b, #004972, #9bb7bb This swatch makes me think of Mardi Gras and Easter which is why I chose this month to pull it out the stash of color palettes that have been submitted. Don't forget that in addition to the above colors, you may also use these neutral colors: black, white, shades of gray, brown, silver and gold. Deadline - Friday, April 25 (by 11:59pm CST) Reveal and Blog Hop on Friday, May 2. This kit will not be sold in the MouseScrappers store. The only way to get it is to participate in the Design Challenge. As you are planning your contribution, please look through the things others are making so the kit doesn't have a lot of duplicate items. We want this kit to have tons of variety! Try something new, learn a new technique, and stretch your boundaries a little! Check out this thread for resources, tutorials, tips, and tricks for designers. We would like to include two templates in this kit. A PhotoShop template with at least 25 layers will fulfill the minimum submission requirement. You should submit both a layered PhotoShop document and untrimmed PNG files named 1,2,3,4,5,etc. The first two people to send me a PM indicating a desire to create a template for this month’s challenge will be listed below. Template 1: momeee Template 2: bonham0731 Submission Guidelines:
IMPORTANT: You may NOT include:
The following website has a searchable database where you can look to see if a name/phrase is trademarked: http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/index.jsp *** If there are any questions about minimum requirements or copyright infringement, please ask. *** Files and Zipped Folder(s): Naming your files:Your MS username_DC#_element type_descriptionPaper Example: MMouse_DC50_paper_green.jpg Naming your folder(s):If your username is longer than 8 characters, please use an abbreviation. Avoid using spaces anywhere in the file/folder name. If you design under a different name, you may use that name instead of your MouseScrappers name.Your MS username_DC# Please limit the size of each zipped folder to 50mb. If your submission is larger than 50 mb, please split it into separate zipped folders to help control download times. If you have more than one zipped folder, name them in this manner: To zip files place all your elements and a TOU inside a folder, then zip that folder. This is automatically creates a folder containing your files in whatever folder the user unzips to.Your MS username_DC#_folderletter There are many ways to compress (zip) a folder. You can use a program such as WINZIP/WINRAR or, if you are on a Windows operating system, there is a utility built into Windows that you can use.
Uploading Submissions: We will be utilizing DropITtoME to collect submissions this month. When you are ready to submit you items, send frogfish (Christina) a PM for the link and password. Don't worry, it's super easy and I will receive your submission immediately (no waiting to download). Disclaimer: This kit will not be sold in the MouseScrappers store. The only way to get it is to participate! Every month you participate in this challenge, you will receive the resulting design challenge collaboration kit (for that month) free of charge, but will receive no compensation (monetary or otherwise) for your submission to the challenge. Copyright of your submission remains with you. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. You DON'T have to be a designer; anyone can do this! The more people who participate, the bigger the monthly kit will be!

Hi Christina...It's good to see you and the Design Challenges back! I haven't been around to do these for awhile, but I'm ready for this one. Since I've already designed kits for Jasmine and Tiana for these challenges that this color palette would work well for, I guess I'll go another route and do a kit around the TeaCups theme. I'll do a mini-kit with alpha and also participate in the blog hop.

I am planning to give it a try....I am not sure what kind of theme because I am not really a designer of any sort...so this will be my first time actually doing a mini-kit.
