Show Me Your Colors for Denim! September

[Elisabeth]

I'm looking to do a denim themed kit. Now, there are several in the store so I won't be duplicating those, so if you're familiar with most of them try to avoid those particular color schemes. Show me five colors you'd like to see in a denim kit, and indicate which one you are thinking of for the denim itself - it doesn't have to be blue, but it can be! Dark blue, faded blue, green, brown, whatever! One or two of your colors should be indicated for the denim, and the others should be accent colors I can use to make other elements.

Post as many color schemes as you like. I'll choose one, make a kit, and whoever's scheme I choose gets the kit free, usually before it even gets to the store.

The color scheme gallery is here (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=2379)! Let's see what you come up with!

This challenge will close on the 16th at midnight, at which time I'll deliberate my choices - thanks!

Elisabeth,
I have a question- I see in the gallery people have included a number with each of their colors. What number is that, and do I need to add to my color selection for you? I used PSE 3 to do my color scheme, and there are several sets of numbers given for the colors. Thanks for your help! Here is my color scheme:

It can have the numbers or not; sometimes I use them sometimes I don't, so no worries! I mostly use my eyedropper tool so don't go to any trouble to find the hex or rgb numbers. Thanks!

That's mine. The goldish yellow is meant to be a glittery gold! I'm relieved we don't need to put numbers as I couldn't figure those out either.

Here are my color choices ....

Thanks for looking!

Alright, she's finally done! I thank everyone who posted a color scheme (or more) - they do stay in the gallery and I look them over from time to time to make things, so if I ever use yours, you do get that kit or set free.

This time I did the denim using mariafer's color scheme 4 (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=129521&cat=2379). If I remember correctly I chose part of her colors last month, too, so I'm going to do a random winner this month as well as Maria.

You can see the finished kit here (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=132715&cat=826), and I've already done the second set for the posting bonus, so stand by for that BOGO challenge early next month!

Wow, Elizabeth, these kits are wonderful!! I LOVE them-Just what I need for my teenagers! Can't wait for the BOGO challenge next month!

Congratulations mariafer!

[Vallie]

Wow!! Looks fantastic!! :)

[the3chickens]

Congrats, Maria!!! Lovely colours!

[mariafer]

I AM SO ZIKED!!! (is that how you spell that... I guess I am not as cool as I think I am!) I love this kit and am so happy that you picked my color scheme THANKS! Can't wait to see what you do with the other amazing color schemes for this denim challenge...

[Elisabeth]

Hee! Ziked is probably the "cool" way to spell it!

I'm back with my random number draw which said 2 which is Greenfingers if I am counting to 2 correctly. (yeah, there's room for error there, this is me)

So I'll pm the two of you with the links (I want to make a small change to one element first) and then I'll get to tapping my chin for a challenge for Oct. color scheme. Any particular kit requests? It would be a November release kit, but there are already tons of fall and Thanksgiving kits in the store so I likely won't do that. Anyone have any good suggestions? I'm open, or I'll think of something if not!

[amyeileen]

Great color choice and fantastic kit made with them!!!

[amyeileen]

What about a learning kit? Like learning numbers, the alphabet, shapes, colors, etc. My son is just at the stage where I am teaching him his left hand and right hand and so on....All kids have to learn right??? :D AND you could make them coordinate with your Academics kits.

[Vallie]

Kit requests?? MMMM ... well christmas is coming again! What about something like an advent calendar to count down. And I guess it will start snowing up in the northern hemisphere by then so snow stuff. Even though it will be hot as Hades down here, I still love snow themed christmas and seasonal winter snowy stuff. Of course you could do surfin' santa for us southerners! :)

[okblues]

Great choice and congratulations Maria!

[Greenfingers]

Oh dear- I'm LOL here. I just found out that I got the random draw. The funny thing is, having uploaded my colours, I didn't like them when I compared them with what other people had chosen. I left it on the site until the winner was announced (well done BTW Mariafer) and then I deleted mine and even deleted the original off my PC.
Thank you so much, Elizabeth- the kits are lovely, with so many imaginative elements. I especially like the leather patch.

[Elisabeth]

I snagged another of the suggested color schemes for a baby/toddler kit I had in mind. I love how it turned out!

For some reason I had it labelled wrong on my computer when I saved it. I thought it was Amyeileen's and it's Mariafer's! Sorry Maria! So Maria gets the kit, and Amy gets it because I had a duh moment. Anybody else want to get me mixed up next month for an extra chance at winning?

This will be in the store in early November.

[mariafer]

Well I am so glad that I got to have it because I LOVE IT! I already made a layout and am planning another one of my son with the sippy... Love that I can use it with both! Thanks Elizabeth...

Anyway if you want to take a look here is my layout... http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=139689&cat=500&ppuser=20407
