WEEK 1 ASSIGNMENT

[Ambowife Designs]

Are you all ready? Here we go....

WEEK 1 ASSIGNMENT



Use only this kit from
MITSYBELLE DESIGNS
"AUTUMN KISS"
THEME: NATURE/AUTUMN

You will receive a coupon by Personal Message to buy this kit in the store HERE.

YOUR ASSIGNMENT

Create a SINGLE 12X12 LAYOUT using as much of the kit as you can to promote it as much as possible, whilst still keeping your page, including shadows and layers, BALANCED AND EYECATCHING. By Shadows I mean they should be consistent, all in the same direction and relative to the distance off the page that particular element is.
NO use of templates or sketches or other wordart or elements are allowed, the only thing you can use is the kit and your photos and fonts/own handwriting.
So your credits should only need to be to Mistybelle Designs - Autumn's Kiss
Post your layout in the Week 1 Gallery then post the url link from the address bar here in this thread so that we know you have posted and can go leave you some love.

(note: you have to have at least 5 posts in the forum to post a layout in the gallery)

You can do as many layouts as you wish but doing more than one layout will also mean any votes you get will be for the layout not for you as a contestant, so keep that in mind. More layouts may mean less votes for you in the poll in the long run.

POST DEADLINE : MIDNIGHT EST SATURDAY 4th September

POST YOUR LAYOUT IN THE LAYOUT ARTIST COMPETITION WEEK 1 GALLERY.

POLL FOR VOTING : will go up in a separate thread just after MIDNIGHT EST SATURDAY NIGHT

POLLING CLOSES : Midnight est on Tuesday 7th September

ALL STUDIO MEMBERS CAN VOTE IN THIS ROUND


45 contestants will go on to round 2
A new thread with those who will be going on and the new week 2 assignment will be posted on WEDNESDAY 8th September ALL CONTESTANTS MOVING ON IN THE CONTEST WILL RECEIVE THE KIT BY PM MESSAGE.



A FEW MORE RULES

ALL VOTING POLLS ARE OPEN TO THE STUDIO MEMBERS ONLY - THE FINAL VOTE IS ONLY OPEN TO STUDIO DESIGNERS AND ADMIN.

No offering freebies or any other incentives for votes
You can blog about the competition and you can have a banner or blinkie or such in your signature to advertise that you are a contestant
You can have "Please vote for Me" in your signature or banner/blinkie or on your blog just don't offer anything in return for votes in the poll.

Once you have uploaded your 'official' entry for the week you are not to edit it in any way once it's been uploaded to the gallery.

I'm so looking forward to it! Since I'm new to all of this, I'm glad you pointed out about the having to have 5 posts in the forum. Does that mean I have to start 5 new threads or just post at least 5 replies to a thread?

[crlin]

Just post 5 replies so you only need 2 more! Can't wait to get started on this beautiful kit!

quick question. are we allowed to use templates or sketches to create the layouts? just making sure of the rules...

[Mitsybelle]

I don't think it would be against the rules but really we would like to see 'your' work let's see if Tracy agrees with this too

[karengrimwood]

Thank you for the lovely kit, I'll go and have a play now!

[Ambowife Designs]

I agree that using templates or sketches is probably an unfair advantage so NO no use of templates or sketches, the only thing you can use is the kit and your photos and fonts.
So your credits should only need to be to Mistybelle Designs - Autumn's Kiss

I'll add that to the rules up top too, thanks for asking, and for thinking of that

Laila that is just gorgeous well done

[Kwille's Wife]

The kit is wonderful! Can't wait to get started!

[Mitsybelle]

Well I'm amazed that we have three layouts up already, and wow, what gorgeous layouts they are too

[allergy_mom]

Am I allowed to use premade word art (without other embellies on it, of course, just photoshopped), or are we to use only fonts? Example: my word art says, Adorable, and looks metallic. Nothin' too fancy, lol, but it isn't from your kit!

[Ambowife Designs]

Kelly no sorry hun, only font or your own handwriting (like when you use a tablet and digital pen) otherwise it's all got to be from the kit.
