Will be back with more in a minute or two!

[JenniferG]

I just downloaded a bunch of color swatches from Kuler.adobe! Then I had fun creating swatch jpegs out of them and uploading them to my Swatches Album in my Gallery! Here are a few:

[Leea]

mariafer, I like your top swatch, especially the bottom 3 colors of the swatch, the blue, pink, and the kind of a light blue/green/turquoise (not sure what color to call it, but the colors all look great together)... I'm adding those colors to my list of swatches to try sometime :)

[bamabreeze10]

Here are two new ones from me!!

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/6620/Gimmie-Clue-swatch.jpg?961 (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=289599)

I hope this gets picked...as I've been waiting for someone to make a kit out of these colors for a bit. And the bottom color came out a bit different than I had intended. I used Kuler instead of picking the colors out myself in the top swatch. Here's the corrected color:

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/6620/Gimmie-Clue-swatch_1.jpg

[mcbowersox]

I had to add one more. I put this photo in Kuler and really like the colors it picked out in the "bright" mode. I never would have thought to pick the blue out of the trash can, but I really like it with it. The pink could maybe be a bit brighter, though.

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/6712/Dawn2.jpg?550

[shawsi]

What is Kuler?

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/500/yarn.jpg

[bamabreeze10]

I wondered the same thing. Its an adobe program online as far as I can find. I just did a google search for Koler. I've been having fun messing around with it now :) Hope that helps!!What is Kuler?

[Pezjunky]

http://kuler.adobe.com/
It's a website all about color swatches. You can put pictures in and it'll swatch it, or pick a color and it'll give different combinations like complimentary or monochromatic.

[mcbowersox]

Pez Junky, I always mean to ask you if you collect Pez.

I have been collecting (have about 1000 at this point) for about 4 years or so. I used to be really active at Pez Community, but haven't been around there lately.

Anyhow, I just wondered if you were a fellow Pezhead.

[wuvie]

Leea - love that first one...

Here's one, but I don't know how to make it big and I don't think anyone can see it. Is there a tutorial? I tried the quick click, but I don't know how to get it in here. I am sorry.

Ok, someone just had to explain this to me too. So I'll do my best. . .

In your gallery open your swatch. Right click on the picture and go down to properties. Highlight and copy the url.

Then when you're writing your post click on the icon in the toolbar that's the fourth from the right (insert image). Paste the copied url there and that's it!

Hope I explained that ok. . .

[mcbowersox]

I just saw on the 30-something thread that Tina is mostly without power, so I'm wondering if we'll see her in here tonight. . .

I hate when the power goes out! UGH!

[Robyn Gough]

Yes I think she may be scarce as yes the power is out, although she is sending the odd email from her blackberry.

Just a tip with Kuler too, if it is easier, you can just do a screenshot of the kuler palette, and crop it to size, or use screen hunter. Saves messing with creating the palette in PS or what have you.

[Pezjunky]

Pez Junky, I always mean to ask you if you collect Pez.

I have been collecting (have about 1000 at this point) for about 4 years or so. I used to be really active at Pez Community, but haven't been around there lately.

Anyhow, I just wondered if you were a fellow Pezhead.

I did collect in High School for a while, but not much anymore. I do love Pez, but don't always feel like spending money on Pez dispensers. I have about 70, mostly common ones, not special/rare ones. It's not a huge collection, but big enough for my hubby to roll his eyes at. He doesn't mind as much when I buy the candies though, as long as I share :tup:

[shawsi]

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/6802/thumbs/green-photo.jpgOK...I am going to try this again.


It is still little. I don't get how to make things big on here. I am going to try to get my flair smaller however.

[mcbowersox]

Ok, I just went to your gallery and copied the link, so I'm going to try and see if it works. . .

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/6802/green-photo.jpg

[mcbowersox]

hmmm. . . it worked for me, but i'm not sure why it didn't for you. . .

Anyhow, at least it's big in this thread now.

[Robyn Gough]

hmmm. . . it worked for me, but i'm not sure why it didn't for you. . .

Are you copying the thumbnail link or the full size image link?

To get he larger size you have to click on the thumbnail first to open the larger image and then right click on the larger image to get the full size image link.

Does that sound like it could be what was happening?

[sandygb]

Gosh - Lots of wonderful colors. I love the one from Shawsi and the houses swatch from mcbowersox....and others as well.

[dawn-in-nz]

Yes Sandi, you are using the thumbnail of your swatch instead of the original upload. Before you upload save it at about 250 pixels wide which is a nice size for a swatch, some of them are far too large for the forums, I feel as if I have to stand on the other side of the room to see them properly :yikes:
Then click on the actual upload picture and not the thumbnail of it.

[Tina]

(Hey ladies, I hv lost power due 2 a snow/ice/snow storm. We hv a generator + I can run my puter, but the DSL is out too(I'm on my blackberry now)! Oy! Ill be back asap.

[tif_gerber]

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/6607/lauren-swatch2.jpg

I already voted for one, can I vote for two? If so I'm voting for this one too!

[mcbowersox]

I bet you're right Robyn. It looks like that's what she did.

[shawsi]

ok...I will try to do it that way, then I will erase it...we don't need too many of the same one.

Here goes.

I found that I had there in my gallery. Forgot about them, but it worked. Thanks guys
You are such patient teachers. Trust me, I need patience. lol

[mcbowersox]

Yay Shawsi! :applause:

[mcbowersox]

By the time Tina gets back up and running, we could have enough swatches in here for the next 10 kits!

[shawsi]

Ok...this is my attempt at using Kathleen's quick click to this stage....then I am done. I have to get busy.

The Rocky Mountains on a stormy day, It worked!!!! Yay!

Gotta go with this one! Very different! :)

I'm back online for now, but our power has already flickered again! oy!!!!!!!!

[JenniferG]

Oh yummy Tina!

How bout a background that is in the yellow color with the brown as circles...so yellow with brown dots...like sausage on cheese...you can mix a bit of the cream color in there, too....if it looks ok!

[tif_gerber]

How about a red background with a linen texture? Or cream with a red or brown grunginess around the edge?

[tif_gerber]

Or a thin grungy stripe using all the colors???

[idtwinmom]

Something I don't see much of in the store: A darker BG with light grunge - as in the brown with cream/yellow grunge. Then the red with a brown/yellow/orange bits scattered in it like the thin shreds of cheese. (I don't know if that one is even possible).

[tif_gerber]

Oh, good ideas, Lisa!

[mcbowersox]

Gotta ask for a stripe! It's my mission in life!

I like this swatch. It is really different but great colors!

[Leea]

YAY! Thanks Tina :) I was looking through my photos for ideas and saw the pizza photo (from a visit when my grandson was helping make the pizza :) ) and decided to try it for a swatch. (It's an easy to make pizza, tastes good and the toppings are fun for children to add to it...no tossing the dough into the air or anything).

[Leea]

how about the cream for the background, the brown for some grunge on it, with one of the reds as sprinkled glitter edges....both grungy and glittery :)

[Leea]

or maybe a cream background with a red glittered edge?
a brown background with red swirls?
I like Tiffani's linen and grungy stripe ideas :)
How about a plaid with all or several of the colors?

[honeymoon]

Reddish colour background with swirls of leaves and maybe little flowers or birds in the dark brown colour.

Cream self embossed with stripes.

[Tina]

So I was just playing around and made this background. No one suggested it, but LMK if you like it for this kit or not!

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/Designakit11.jpg

[sandygb]

Love the color swatch!

How about a brown/cream gingham check
A brown BG with polka dots of all the other colors (or the same done on the cream BG

[sandygb]

OMG...YES...I love that first paper Tina. Gorgeous!!!

[idtwinmom]

Love that paisley! Great beginning!

[mcbowersox]

I love that paper, Tina!

[mcbowersox]

A name just came to me. . . I know it's early but it's screaming

Paisley Pizza!

or even Paisley Pizzazz (how do you spell that word?)

[shawsi]

Cute Christy. I love it.

[Pezjunky]

I love the paisley!
With those dark colors, how about something manly- dark grungy paper or bold stripes

[Tina]

Something I don't see much of in the store: A darker BG with light grunge - as in the brown with cream/yellow grunge.

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/Designakit11_2.jpg

[idtwinmom]

Yeah! Love that brown BG!!!!!!

This needs the Cream or Yellow now to balance the darker colors. Some sort of pattern on it would be OK, but I think subtle would go best with the paisley. Small dots maybe!

[dawn-in-nz]

How about the opposite of the last one, yellow with a brown grunge, perhaps with a large piece of the paisley pattern blended into the corner so you can barely see it.
I really have no idea of what I'm talking about.....

[bamabreeze10]

how about some stripes? maybe a creamy color with a pinstripe thats the same color as the paisley paper

[shawsi]

I love both backgrounds. Maybe they need something that ties them together...a stripe?

[sandygb]

Yeah! Love that brown BG!!!!!!

This needs the Cream or Yellow now to balance the darker colors. Some sort of pattern on it would be OK, but I think subtle would go best with the paisley. Small dots maybe!

I like the idea of the gold color or cream with little dots....maybe in the brick red color.

[bamabreeze10]

I like the idea of the gold color or cream with little dots....maybe in the brick red color.


mmmmm like pepperoni!

[sandygb]

mmmmm like pepperoni!

ROTF......Pepperoni....Too funny.....

[diturpin]

Lovely start! The paisley reminds me of bandannas and the farm. How about a yellow check/plaid with some rips or a frayed corner.

[Tina]

Ok, I took the suggestion of the light paper with a subtle design. i did harlequin.

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/designakit11_3.jpg

[sandygb]

Beautiful Tina. I love the harlequin paper

[diturpin]

Ooooh! I like the diamond paper.

[Pezjunky]

Great papers. I still vote for stripes though.

[tif_gerber]

Still rooting for a grungy stripe!!!

[tif_gerber]

Oh, and I DO love the first three papers!!!

[handkl]

Lovin' those papers! How about some stripes - either way thin or bold...I'm not fussy.

[Leea]

How about a stripe background with the reds, the brown and a gold metallic stripe?

[mcbowersox]

I definitely vote for a stripe. I'd like to see some of the yellow colors too.

[shawsi]

I would like a yellow (or gold) background with a thin brown stripe and a thicker dark red one. Mostly yellow though.

[idtwinmom]

This is turning into a fabulously rich kit! Love the choice to go with the harlequin design.

Well, since we have used all the other colors, it's time for the Orange to make it's appearance. I can't decide whether it should be more plain and textured or have some sort of pattern. Maybe it is time for the stripe.

[JenniferG]

I'm going to have to echo the striped background. I think that it would make a nice addition!

[mcbowersox]

Maybe some gold bling would be fun this time.

[Pezjunky]

Bling if good. Maybe a striped paper with a small gold glittery stripe along with the red and brown and cream.

[sandygb]

How about a stripe background with the reds, the brown and a gold metallic stripe?

Lots have requested a stripe...and I love Leea's idea and Pezjunky's too. Both are similar.

[Tina]

ok ladies, i tried a traditional stripe, but it just didnt work. it was too bold for this kit, and didn't go well or something.

SO, here's a compromise. its the suggestion of the grungy dot while being a bit of a stripe too (the dots make stripes).

Hope you like!

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/designakit11_4.jpg

[Pezjunky]

It looks great!

[sandygb]

Ooooo, that's beautiful Tina!

[sandygb]

Maybe we could bring in some more of the gold color in the elements.

How about something along the lines of a sunflower (gold color) with a brown center.

Also a gold color tied ribbon.

[Leea]

The backgrounds look great! :)
Sandy's idea of a sunflower sounds good...and would look good on the brown background :)
Maybe a cream colored raffia bow?
Red gems?

[Leea]

How about a gold metal circle/ring or rings with beads in the different colors?

[Leea]

brown leather swirl with cream stitching/cream swirl with brown stitching

[idtwinmom]

Love those papers! They are all gorgeous!

Gold frame, not too frilly, kind of simple, but not plain.
The leather swirl Leea mentioned sounds good.
A yellow flower sounds good too.

Beyond that, I think it's too late, my brain doesn't want to work.

[dawn-in-nz]

A straw flower or a bunch of straw flowers tied up with a raffia bow with long dangley bits.

http://tbn1.google.com/images?q=tbn:-LEdcsl7ngSzvM:http://freethumbs.dreamstime.com/53/big/free_533838.jpghttp://tbn2.google.com/images?q=tbn:-g6itzRxbJABWM:http://www.edwardholmberg.com/images/straw_flowers.jpghttp://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:5RBw8JNmrN2rWM:http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h29/madelinesmommy/garden%2520pictures/stawpink1.jpghttp://tbn1.google.com/images?q=tbn:nPA5Ulk51yIquM:http://www.stefanitadio.com/uploaded_images/07-31-08_StrawFlowers-713472.jpg

[Pezjunky]

A gold metal frame. Something old and tarnished looking- y'know, black in the creases and what not.
And that paisley really reminds me of a bandanna, so I keep thinking of straw/hay things and cowboy boots and a sheriffs badge.

[Muma]

Oh wow ... adore the backgrounds. Wonderful.

[handkl]

We need some yellow:

A yellow button that says "laugh"
A yellow, brown and red patterned ribbon
A knotted bow (like the one in Razzle Dazzle Sad or Glad
A dark brown frame

[handkl]

A straw flower or a bunch of straw flowers tied up with a raffia bow with long dangley bits.

Love this idea!

[handkl]

How about a gold metal circle/ring or rings with beads in the different colors?

Like this idea too!

[Tina]

I think this is along the lines of a sunflower. sorta. it started w/ your idea anyway, sandy ;)

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/Designakit11_5.jpg

[mariafer]

This is lovely... where have I been!!! I love what you have come up with. When I saw the colors I wasn't sure where it was going but I love this!

How about a seperate paisley element

[Leea]

I like Hannah's idea of a button that says laugh..maybe two other buttons in different colors that say love and live,...that would be so cool! Maybe the buttons can have shapes...a circle, a heart, a diamond (like the background)?

[Leea]

Maybe Wordart with laugh, love, live :)
The flower is cute! Love the sparkle center :)

[Leea]

a sparkly diamond element, like the background paper diamonds or maybe glitter-edged diamond as an element or several as an overlay or in a swirl or corner element

[Leea]

The flower is really pretty, maybe a border or swirl with the flowers :)

[idtwinmom]

A paisley shaped bling.
A simple square or rectangle frame.
A curly ribbon.
A bow (round like a Christmas bow - but of course with these colors)

[Penny M]

How about an overlay element similar to the variegated dots on the paper that you could use on any paper?

[Tina]

a sparkly diamond element, like the background paper diamonds

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/designakit11_6.jpg

[honeymoon]

Some swirly leave like things based on the swirl of the paisley - now that makes sense doesn't it ;)

[mcbowersox]

Maybe paisley dangles in a bling similar to the diamond border you just added.

[bamabreeze10]

a frame that has some swirl edges like the paisley on it, or some bling like the border!!

[mariafer]

I am really liking splotches. So how about a splotch of gold glitter or even a splotch stamp in the yellow.

[mariafer]

Or a ring of shiny dots... kind of like the ones on the red paper..

[sandygb]

I love the button ideas....(like a campaign button), but I would like them without text so that we could add our own. How about a grouping of 3 buttons together in different colors. We could then cut them individually to use on the page as needed. They could also work as an alpha base.

[Tina]

I am really liking splotches. So how about a splotch of gold glitter or even a splotch stamp in the yellow.

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/designakit11_7.jpg

[handkl]

What about a black filgree (sp?) photo frame? A photo frame made from layered papers in the colours from the kit, but necessarily the ones in the kit.
And we need the ribbon and bow suggested in post #99

[idtwinmom]

Wow! This is gorgeous!

I like the idea of a filigree frame, but gold not black, or one of the colors maybe. And maybe with the diamonds on it.

It may not need the ribbon now with the drops element, but a round bow would still be great, maybe a darker color than the flower. Maybe even with the paisley. Since that BG is fabric like, a good fabric bow.

Something more with the paisley shape to it, a swirl/flourish type corner element.

[sandygb]

I would love one of the paisleys from the paper done as an element. Maybe in reverse colors (cream where the red is and red or brown where the cream is).

[mariafer]

Thanks for the splotch :)!

I like Sandy's idea about the paisley...

I also think that if we do a frame maybe one with gems like the one in the flower... maybe metal and 3 of the gems in each side...

[shawsi]

What about a diamond shaped frame of gold filigree?

Maybe a crocheted lace edging with points.

[Lynnie]

I think a skinny, panoramic frame would be wonderful! How about it, Tina :)

[JenniferG]

So pretty Tina! I'm loving it! Going to bed now, but wanted to say that!!

[tif_gerber]

I think a skinny, panoramic frame would be wonderful! How about it, Tina :)

I love skinny panoramic frames too!

[tif_gerber]

Is it too soon to suggest word art? I know I want word art, just don't know what I want it to say! I'll BBL to suggest something profound. hahaha

[Tina]

I think a skinny, panoramic frame would be wonderful! How about it, Tina :)

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/data/1624/designakit11_8.jpg

[tif_gerber]

YEAH! Awesome frames Tina! Still trying to come up with some word art, but in the mean time, how about a journaling tag. Could have some bling on it, or the bling could be separate?

[idtwinmom]

Interesting how you added the music notes to the frame!

I'm afraid my brain is just not coming up with any suggestions. I will be back.

[bamabreeze10]

looks beautiful!!! hard to believe this all started with a slice of pizza hehe

[sueya]

I'd like to see a twisted cream ribbon

[sandygb]

Hmmm. I'm trying to think of how to describe this.....

A row of journaling strips. (about the same width as the frame). The row would be horizontal, but the strips would be vertical. (opposite from the skinny frame). Some of the strips could be curled up at the bottom. The strip of strips could then be placed under the frame, and little descriptives could be written on them. Does this make sense? (The text would have to be rotated).

I would also like to see this done with a "portrait" skinny frame and a column of horizontal journaling strips joined with vertical stitching in a kit sometime too.

[shawsi]

The colors remind me of cinnamon and nutmeg and tomato sauce....what about word art...Spice of Life?

[sandygb]

I would also like to see this done with a "portrait" skinny frame and a column of horizontal journaling strips joined with vertical stitching in a kit sometime too.

Love this idea of journaling strips!

word art maybe "Sugar and Spice" or

[handkl]

A ribbon of some sort - cream, gold, or pattern - they have all been suggested.

[Tina]

i thought sure I saw this mentioned, but now I can't find it! Here it is anyway- gold string

Beautiful Tina! Could we have a gold charm of some sort to hang on the necklace? Maybe some circular frame sort of thing that we can put a photo in...like a locket.

A title saying Treasure would be pretty in gold...or some other word art in gold.

[bamabreeze10]

Beautiful! Still more elements? how about something with the reddish/brown color the other papers are in to stand out against the cream paper. maybe a paisley swirl, or some more "bling" in red? It's looking awesome so far Tina!

[idtwinmom]

Oh, love it! I really like the Gold Locket idea, round like JG said, not heart shaped.

And how many elements are there supposed to be? I keep forgetting!

[mcbowersox]

I think 8, Lisa.

[Leea]

If there's a locket, maybe a floral design...like the flower element and swirls etched on it?

[Leea]

Wordart in the cream color, edged in gold or orange glitter...Jennifer's idea of Treasure? Live,Love, Laugh? Smile :)
red glitter swirl? glitter swirl overlay?
glass beads in the different colors?
double or triple circle large metal rings with beads or diamonds or small versions of the flower
a swirl with smaller versions of the flower sprinkled among the swirls and some bling and glitter in the swirl

[shawsi]

Word art...letters shaded like the petals of the flower.

Still like the Spice of Life

The Flavors of life

Variety is the Spice of Life

You are the spice of life

A paisley shaped journal tag
Bling in a paisley shape

[bamabreeze10]

A paisley shaped journal tag

that would look really awesome with this kit :)

[Pezjunky]

The elements are all cream so far, we need more of the brown and red. A button, a tag, an overlay, a stamp...something.

[shawsi]

I agree Desiree. That is why I thought a leather tag would be nice.

[Tina]

A paisley shaped journal tag



and the spray of stars/gems was my idea :)

1 piece to go!

[handkl]

What about a dark brown or red flower?

[bamabreeze10]

how about a photo overlay that has swirls/paisley on two of the four corners? something that has dots instead of a solid line (like the border around the paisley journal tag)

[sandygb]

What about a dark brown or red flower?

I think we need a red/brown element too!

[Leea]

How about interlocked hearts in dark red or a double heart element :)

[dawn-in-nz]

A sheet of music to match the frame but a long narrow sheet going down the length of the page and sort of fading in & out, like some of your word art.

[Tina]

How about interlocked hearts in dark red or a double heart element :)

They don't interlock in case people only want to use 1 of them they can cut them apart.

Ready for names!
