Recently Becky Higgins announced that she was holding a design contest for her 2012 Project Life scrapbooking kit. I haven't used her kit before, but I just love the concept and the way the kits are designed! If you are not familiar with Project Life, you can read more about it at here.
After a few days of contemplating whether or not to enter, I decided to go for it. It's a long shot, as the contest is open to well-known, seasoned designers, but it had been a while since I made a digital kit, and I was itching to do something! The one rule that Becky had was that the concept had to be designed in Adobe Illustrator. Up until now, any kits that I have created were done in Adobe Photoshop. I have never built a kit from the ground up in Illustrator! After completing my concept, I have to say I don't know which program I prefer to design digital kits in!
The contest closes May 13 and I submitted my concept this morning. Although I can't share the designs with you right now, I do want to share my color palette (see below). I am not sure when Becky will decide on the design for her 2012 kit. If mine isn't chosen, no biggie! I'll have a set of papers and elements I can use for a future kit!
