Design Challenge #10 - March/April 2013
Color Swatch for Design Challenge #10 - March/April 2013
We are going to make this a 2 month challenge because Easter is at the end of March. Hopefully we'll get a lot of people joining in with the extra time! Hex Codes: #ccbb63, #9c7862, #b04e4f, #a45034, #f0ae45, #a51e24 This swatch was sent in by Lisa (chef minnie mouse) just a couple days ago. I fell in love with it right away...it is so different from the swatches we've used for previous challenges and as a mother of 2 boys (and a girl), I appreciate that it isn't too girly although it still has a feminine feel. 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 26 (by 11:59pm CST) Reveal and Blog Hop on Friday, May 3. This kit will not be sold in the MouseScrappers store. The only way to get it is to participate in the Design Challenge. There will be no backup template this month. We haven't had an issue with anyone dropping out of the challenge after they've signed up to do a template, so it has become unnecessary to list a backup. We still want two templates though! 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: Template 2: We will also need someone to create a charm for the DC PP charm bracelet. The charm should use the colors from or follow the current month's theme. Send me a PM if you are interested. Charm: 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!

Glad to have the extra time. I've got a lot going on, and taking part in lots of challenges.
I just LOVE the color palette, though I have no idea what direction I'm going to go in. Hmmmmm-putting my creative cap on. |

Yup.....For me it's going to be Prince Charming's Regal Crousel. Oh I'm so excited. All the colors fit. I can do what I want without it being "Disney". Great Blog Hop Ideas. And so glad that I have plenty of time to do it. |
