      LOL Kimmyann... you better make them match or we''l send you to the corner LOL

      Seriously though... you wanna know how I discovered this little trick? Well! I was asked to do the challenge this month and I'm pretty useless with challenges and stuff like this but I came up with an idea...Ï'll make it a play with the colour effects thingy" and did the kit... EEEKKK! at the last minute I discovered that you CAN'T change the colour of the BG Paper...Panic mode- my challenge was no good !everyone would only be able to change the embies and elements but not the BG Paper in my kit and nothing would match.... I asked admin if it was possible and if so HOW could you change the BG colour and they said you cant....
      As I didnt have time to come up with a new challenge, In desperation I was playing with it and discovered that you can indeed!! all this time I have been using Max and never knew that.. so I am really happy that I haven't come up with a useless chalenge LOL... at least some of us have actually learned a new trick.

      But crumbs!!!!! what did I do this for? NOW no-one is going to buy my kits they wont need to - you can use the same BG's 60,000 times and make them look like new LOL

        Monnbeam thats not True....... Everyone will buy your Kits, now we can just have 1 kit in 60,000 colors!!!!!! That makes Them Even Better!!! The Next Kit in 60,000 colors and so on...... Your Discovery will help every one have more options, with the same kits.... It might even give Ya'll (The Designers) have more Ideas!!!!

              Super recoloring, and that's something that I love to do. Thanks also for the hints, we can always use other people's research to find easier and newer ways to do things, thanks all.

                  Those Were The Days

                  Hi Moonbeam



                  Brilliant challenge and what a clever trick! I've often been frustrated with not being able to re-colour backgrounds, I have always brought the background in as a scrap and used it that way. But what fun - we don't need to do that now.

                  The spiral shape I used is one I made myself (I think I probably shared it somewhere on the forums).

                  Thanks for the fun.

                  Blessings - FS xx

                  ps - your designs are beautiful and you're in no danger of putting yourself out of business with this clever trick.

                    I would have argued with them if it'd been me... I've been doing this since forever! (I even did this in the previous version!) I thought everyone knew how to do this. GOOD THING you came up with this challenge for those who don't! Just 'cause one of us knows something doesn't mean everyone does! Never assume, huh!

                    GREAT challenge, Deanne! BRAVO!

                    And GREAT JOB everyone on your layouts!! Suuuuuuhhhhhh-weeeeeeeet!!
