 April 2010 DD Sampler Sign-Ups - due March 26th :)


As usual, it is not a requirement to participate in this, but it is one more way to get a sample of your products into people's hands :) Please do remember to do your best on the contributions...your goal is to gain customers ;)


Due Date: March 26, 2010

We are going to do something different for April's Daily Download, and if it works well, we might do it every month :) This month we are going to do mini-kits. Each person is required to create a mini-kit consisting of 5-7 papers and 10 unique elements using the color swatch below. It can be any theme/style that you want...showcase your own personal style here so that people will get a taste of what you can do and what you really excel at ;)

Cafe Vienna - April 2010 Mega Kit - due March 26th :)


Image 


Kit name: Cafe Vienna
Due Date: March 26, 2010
Theme:I was thinking "coffee house" with this color swatch...not necessarily a bunch of coffee beans and cups though. More like what the inside of a coffee house looks like. It would be cool if we could get the feel of Starbucks...grungy/funky/rich/somewhat bold. You CAN include the coffee theme, but please do not make it too cutesy...if you do a coffee cup try to make it more grungy and funky instead...I hope that made sense!! LOL I'm posting the 6 papers I have done so far...I did not include any coffee themed stuff...I was going more for the packaging or wall decor of coffee and coffee houses ;)
Metal to use to provide continuity: Silver

Each person signed up will be responsible for making 3 patterned papers and 2 element types. If you sign up for an alpha, you only need to do 3 patterned papers in addition (no other element types). If you sign up for quick pages, feel free to use everyone's contributions to create your pages, and you do still need to do your 3 patterned papers.

**PLEASE READ**Note about patterned papers - Please do not create any plain dotted or striped papers...I realize these are often the first thing you want to do because they are EASY, but we do not want a ton of those patterns in this kit. Please try to be creative with your patterns. If you DO use a dotted or striped pattern, please mix it with another pattern too...dots filled in with shapes, stripes alternating with another pattern, etc.

Please name your files as follows:

yourname_nameofkit_bg.jpg
yourname_nameofkit_elementname.jpg
yourname_nameofkit_prev.jpg
yourname_nameofkit_TOU.txt

Here are my papers...

Below are the element categories, as well as the maximum number of people that can sign up for said categories. I've put a limit on these categories so that we have an even distribution of elements and not 50 staples. I will do my best to update and maintain this original post as much as possible, however please read through everyone's responses before choosing your own contribution.

Five designers will contribute each month for a total of 10 products in the gallery. All designers who participate get a cut of the money made for that month :)

Please upload your zip files to the FTP below, then add your product previews to the gallery, like you would a LO, in the appropriate Club Click gallery.
