Got the swatch, off to think a bit. Good luck everyone, I'll be sure to post any questions if I come across them.

I am just double checking on this due date/time... so this is due at the 'stroke of midnight' on the 5th, meaning we only have 3.5 days (from posting time) to work on this (being due the minute after 11:59 PM on the 4th)? Is that correct?

[Toiny]

Nope. You have all of the 5th. I was hoping by using the 24-hr clock it would be clear. You have the full 24 hours of the 5th to work.

Is that better?

I think 24:00 is the last hour of Sept. 5.

Big DUH from me. Yes, Toiny, much better. I'm so glad I double-checked.

Thank you!

when you say "12 unique elements."

do you mean themed elements or would buttons,stitches, etc etc normal essential things be included in the 12?
want to be sure before i start

[Toiny]

Any element is fine, whether themed or basic (ie buttons, stitches, flowers).

Unique means one-of-a-kind. In other words: if you have the same bow 3 times, but only recolored, it is not unique. Now, if you have 3 completely different bows, that would equal 3 unique elements.

It can get murky if you have a bow, a button and then a clustered element using that bow & that button. I would recommend staying away from this practice for this round.

Another question already, not sure if others might find this one useful as well though.

Do give credit, as required, to any Commercial Use products you use.

Should we provide credit for any CU items we use, even if they have "no credit required" terms in their TOU for the purpose of the contest?

Updated the thread above as well:

Hex #'s
Row 1: #d0e0ea; # dee4ea; # d5d3e4; # ebd7e4; # e8e8e9
Row 2: #aecfde; # 778aaa; # b8b9d7; # e2adce; # 9a9a9a

[Toiny]

Any or all. Your choice.

It is always a nice thing to do, but it is not required.

Thank you for the quick responses.

[Heatheranne]

I've got my swatch of beautiful colours along with the clear instructions. Thank you so much for such a fun start to this challenge. Now, I'm going to play!!! lol :-)

[vickyday]

LOVE the color palette, Toiny! Can't wait to get started!

[SnipsNSnails]

Good luck ladies! This color pallette looks like a challenge for sure! I can't wait to see what you all come up with and I'm sure you will make the voting very difficult for us!
