Designakit Winakit

[Tina]

What? No, its not some foreign Departement store...

Ok, fine, I'll say it slower.. Design a Kit... Win a kit!

I must have the January Blues- I have ZERO inspiration!!!

Here's how we play...

1st Post a color swatch for a kit... if chosen, you win the finished kit.

Then I will pick a random winner from those who post element suggestions.

Third, I will pick a winner from name suggestions!

You may want to hold off on element suggestions until I choose a color scheme, and you'll want to wait til after I post a preview to post name suggestions.

I'm only giving one day for color swatches. Colors will be chosen by midnight 1/15/08. Then element suggestions will be due by 1/16/08. Name will be chosen by 1/17/08!

Should be fun! Help me out of my funk and win! :yahoo:

Here is a link to my color swatch suggestions/ I wasn't sure if I should post in Freebs gallery or my own, so I posted in Freebs. Please let me know if I should move:

How are you doing those?

[doda]

How are you doing those?

I opened the picture in PSE and used the eyedropper to choose the colors, then filled in a rectangle with the colors. When you've chosen the color with the eyedropper and you click on the color in the color picker box thingy, it displays the # that will reproduce that color in (I guess) another photoshop program.

Hope this helps,
Susan

dang and I have to work today, maybe I will have a minute when I get home to post one, before the deadline.

[emandlivsmom]

But where do you get the colors from? Do you use them from other things you have or is there a way to get the color palette to come up?

[sandygb]

WOWZA....Lots of wonderful swatches!!!

I use my eyedropper tool to choose colors, then fill a rectangle on my swatchstrip page with that color. If you look in the eyedropper color box that comes up, you will see that it lists a code for the color you have selected. The code is noted as Red/Green/Blue (amounts of each) or as a number/letter combination.

You can open your eyedropper tool and just randomly choose colors you like, or use a photo or card (as Honeymoon did) as inspiration for your color selections.

Wow, there are a lot of wonderful color schemes out there -

[Sharon1313]

Well, I'm in with this (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=235464)... I've never uploaded swatches before and didn't want to look at anyone else's before I posted, LOL, so mine looks a little different.

Yes, we're definitely ready for SPRING!

[FrugalByDesign]

Need to get the juices flowing for element ideas.
