My October 2007 Scrapbook-over 160 pages & still not done! **updated 4/28**

[kswm30b]

I've done about 85 LOs so far (over 120 pages) for my October 2007 scrapbook(s). I love to share my pages, especially with fellow Disney lovers! Since I do so many pages, and I'm still no where close to being done, I thought it would be easier to just put all my LOs in one thread. I've seen some others do this, so I hope this is ok (if not, just let me know, and I'll stop. ;)) I'm going to post a set of LOs together in each post to catch up quicker, but for my current LOs, I'll just post when they are done. Since I have so many to post, I'm not going to post full credits (just Cricut related info), but if you want to know what anything is, just ask! When I post current pages, I'll give more details. Also a pre-emptive post that I can't figure out how to take good pics of my pages. :( They all look much better in person. Instead of complaining in each post, I'll just say that early on!

So far I've completed 2 sections (MNSSHP & Character Pages), and I'm close to finishing a third (MGM Studios.) I'll start with my MNSSHP layouts. These are in order as they are in my book, not in order of my favorite LOs. ;)

Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party - Main Page-Made the mickey bat in Design Studio Software by welding together a Mickey Head from the Mickey Font cart & a bat from the Paper Dolls cart. "Mickey's" from the Mickey & Friends cart.

The Castle-The castle is the Cinderella Castle from the Happily Ever After cart. I cut away the path in front of the castle & didn't use it. Then I took the front part of the castle (which was now separate since I cut away the path), and adhered it to the right side of the castle. The paper is metallic blue & green (to match the actual castle), and I used gold & black stickles in circle in the clock & the small windows. I used the Cuttlebug Princess embossing folder for the journaling block.

Entrance to the Magic Kingdom for the party-Most of these pics show decorations that were for Halloween in general, not just the party.

Main Street-Title is from the Alphalicious cart (I inked the edges white.)

Page 1 (this was one of those pages I really had a pain taking pics of and then deciding which to use. Since nothing looked exactly right on one pic, I'm just including 2 different pics before I go insane. ;))

Town Square-The buildings of Town square were also lit up & decorated for Halloween & the party. There were CMs with signs (greeting guests coming in, and shooing those without tickets out ;)) & Goofy waved to guests entering for the party.

Decorations-The various decorations up for the party, including projected images on buildings & the ground. A spiderweb was projected onto the Toontown sign. We were getting a photopass in front of that sign when it started to rain. Then, it started to POUR. We had umbrellas and ran to the exit, and we still got completely soaked. I didn't really want to scrap the rain part of the party separate, lol, so I included that story & pic with the decorations.

Hallowishes-The awesome fireworks during the party! I know I always have loads of pics I want to fit on a layout, but this one I had that problem even more than normal. I had SO many pictures I wanted to include, this LO is pretty much just pictures. Just the pics (14, and there were tons more I still could have used!), title, and 2 embelishments. I really love the way it came out, the pics of these pages don't do them justice. All the pics are straight on the page, but in the pics, it obviously looks curved and not even. Trust me, I spent forever making sure it's even...it really is. ;) The title, "Hallowishes", is from the Stone Script cart.

Villains Mix & Mingle - I love this one. :) The pictures don't do it justice. Title is from the Jasmine cart, welded with Design Studio Software.

Meeting the Villains-I had already completed my character page for each of the Villains we met, but I still wanted a page in my MNSSHP section for meeting the Villains after the Villains Mix & Mingle. Title is from Cursive 101 cart, welded with Design Studio Software.

Snow White-I couldn't get a pic with Snow White & the 7 Drawfs, but at least I could get a few pics of them. I had to photoshop someone out of one of the pics, lol, but I don't think you can tell! The Apple was made with the My World cart.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mnsshp_sw.jpg.html

Halloween Pins-I knew I wanted to make a LO of all the Halloween pins we got, but I didn't know how good it would turn out. I printed out pics I took of the pins, and also used 2 of the cards the pins were on that were fancier than just the normal pin card. I ended up really liking this LO, and was surprised that my pics of the pins were so realistic.

Our Costumes We wore these cute Halloween headbands as our costumes (both have pumpkins, mine had a black cat, my mom's had a bat, and they also lit up), and I wore a Tinkerbell/Halloween shirt I bought the day before...next time we'll do a little better. ;) People go ALL out for the party, some of the costumes we saw were amazing. I'm already trying to figure out what I should be for this year! Just like our "costumes", this page isn't too exciting.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mnsshp_costume_site.jpg.html

Memorabilia-Not that exciting, but it's a page I needed to be done to display the MNSSHP tickets, pamphlet, flyer & wristbands. The first pamphlet needs to open, so I made a basic photo corner out of orange paper and one out of vellum. The pamphlet/map can slip out of the photo corners so you can read it, and then slip back in. Journaling about the party will go on the library card (which is a bit greener than in the picture.) The vellum pocket that holds our tickets is from the Going Places cart.

Boo To You Parade (during Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party) Layouts

Once again, these are in order from the actual parade.

Boo To You Parade - Main page - My favorite part of this page are the bats. They aren't just any bats, they are Mickey bats. :) I made them in Design Studio Software by welding together a Mickey Head from the Mickey Font cart & a bat from the Paper Dolls cart (also used these on my main MNSSHP page.)

Layout:

Headless Horseman - I've the idea for this LO since I was still at Disney! Too bad my pics of the horseman aren't the greatest (wish I could include video on a scrapbook page!), but I still think the spirit of the Headless Horseman comes through on the page/pics.

The Headless Horseman is made from Paul Revere on the My World cart. I just got off Paul's head (sorry Paul!), and then placed a jack-o-latern sticker (Jolee's) on his hand. Title is from the Stamped cart, with the shadow welded together with the Design Studio Software.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mnsshp_boo_horse.jpg.html

Main Characters - I actually didn't know what to call this section, so I didn't really give it a title. ;) "You" is from the Doodletype cart.

Pirates - Nothing Cricut on here. On the second page, I used some out of the box ideas for embelishments. The PotC embelishment is actually the tag from a Tshirt I bought at the Disney store! I just cut off the "Disney Store" part, and now it looks like a chipboard embelishment. "Cap'n Jack" is actually from the paper strip that you cut off the bottom of 12x12 paper. I haven't used that paper yet, but one of Rusty Pickle's pirate collection is called "Cap'n Jack." I was having problems working the PotC embelishment on the page, and I thought that paper strip would be a good way to anchor it, coming out of this pic of Jack (http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/travel/florida/disney/week2007/mnsshp/parade/IMG_4932a.jpg.html). I think it works well.

Haunted Mansion - This was our favorite part of the parade. I originally was going to write on the main page about the grave diggers part being our favorite, but I went in a different direction with that page. So now I have to add that bit of journaling to this page. The shovel is made from the Happily Ever After cart.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mnsshp_boo_country.jpg.html

Villains-A lot of people ask me about the Ursula embelishment on the 2nd page. It's actually an iron on patch I found at Joanns. They had a whole line of "Twisted Princess" patches of Disney Villains. Part of the song that plays during this section says "it's good to be bad." I wanted to put that on the page, but the wording on the patch, "So Good at Being Bad", is close enough!

Character Layouts

Now onto my character pages. I love most of these layouts. :) I have 30 character LOs, so I'll split these into a few posts.

Character Meetings Title page-Someone on the Cricut board posted a great idea about making photo mats by welding characters from the Disney carts & rectangles George. I used that idea on this page. The top photo mat uses both Mickey & Friends and George carts. The bottom photo mat uses Happily Ever After and George carts. I also used Cursive 101, welded with the software, to make my title. Pretty simple page, but because of those photo mats, it looks great!

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/char07_title_blur.jpg.html

Princesses Layouts:

Princess Aurora- "Aurora" in the title is from the Happily Ever After cart.
On the second page, the trumpet & banner used for the journaling was also cut with Happily Ever After. The second I saw this in the cart handbook, I knew I had to use it for journaling! The trumpet is metalic gold paper (from DCWV), which doesn't really show up well in the pic. I inked the edge of the banner in gold. In these pics, the second page pic is dark, and the pics themselves all look green for some reason?

Another closeup of title, to see the dimension (http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/cricut/char07_cindy_title.jpg.html)

Belle-May be my fav layout of the princesses (but it's hard to chose!) "Belle" title is from the Dreams Come True cart (you need to look at the closeup of this to see the glitter in the title.) Then, maybe my fav thing on the LO, for the journaling on the second page, I used the princess set of the Cuttlebug embossing folders. I inked the raised image with gold ink.

Snow White & Dopey-The "Snow White and" from the title is from the Happily Ever After cart. Once again I cut off the "and the Seven Drawfs" from the main cut (though I used the "and" this time!) For "dopey" in the title, I used the opposite feature in the Opposites Attract cart, flipped the "e" (to match Dopey's signature) & welded it together in the Design Studio Software. I really like the way his name came out with the software!

Closeup of part of title (http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/cricut/char07_snow_title.jpg.html)

Aladdin & Jasmine-"Aladdin" and "Jasmine" in title, the magic lamp, and Aladdin & Jasmine are from the Dreams Come True cart. The "&" in the title is from the Jasmine cart. I resized Aladdin in the title with DSS so it was close in size to Jasmine. I would have made the magic lamp with metalic gold paper, but I wasn't sure I could print on that. So I used yellow/goldish cardstock instead, and inked the edge with gold (I used my new metalic gold ink a lot in this set!) I also rubbed it over the lamp, so the lamp shimmers in person, but that doesn't really show up in the pic.

Aladdin & Jasmine were the first princess/prince I made with the princess cart. Hard, but not as hard as I thought it might be (the Genie was worse, but I made him smaller.) I made sure to make them as big as I could, at 5 1/2 on the Cricut, but I probably could have made them even bigger by rotating the base in the software. The only problem was the eyes. The brown pieces were REALLY tiny, so instead I used a marker on them. This worked better on Jasmine's eyes than Aladdin's. I made them several days before I worked on this page. I wish I had looked at my pic of Aladdin before making him, because the color for his outfit didn't match what they show in the handbook. And, of course, I used the handbook as my guide for which colors to use. Next time, I have to remember to look at the actual picture instead. I used glitter paper for Jasmine's outfit, but I wish I used gold paper for her earrings (instead of the brown, which doesn't show up well in the pics.) Still I was pretty happy with how they came out, especially since it was my first time working on piecing people together, rather than a mouse, duck, or dog. ;)

Cruella.
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/char07_cruella_blur.jpg.html

Queen of Hearts-Heart mesh border is cut using the Design Studio Software from the George cart using a file I downloaded from Cricut Softcuts (http://cricutsoftcuts.blogspot.com/) (a blog by someone on the cricut board to house design studio files.) I used one of the hearts cut out from the border to use in the top corner. I also cut out a larger heart to use for the journaling (the font I used is called "Beyond Wonderland", haha.) The title is cut with the Alphalicious cart.

Chef Mickey:

Mickey-One of my favorite pages! His head is from the Mickey Font cart. I made his chef's hat from the shell inside the Little Mermaid Title (seen here (http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/cricut/cricut_lmtitle.jpg.html)) on the Dreams Come True cart (then I added strips of paper to match the stripes on Mickey's real hat.) I was wondering how to do this even before going to Disney (crazy!), but when I made the LM title, I saw the little shell cut out and thought, hmm, that sort of looks like a chef hat. And it worked! I was able to use the software to figure out which size of the hat to cut (real dial size 2.) I love the way he came out! The title is from the Mickey & Friends cart (I used the shadow function, I was going to cut the regular version and put it on top, but it came out so well, I decided just to use the shadow.)

Minnie- Both the title ("Minnie Mouse") and Minnie are from the Mickey & Friends cart. Minnie was the only character not wearing a chef's hat during the meal, but she did have on an apron. I made the apron from the Paper Dolls cart.

Donald-Both title ("Donald Duck") and Donald are from the Mickey & Friends cart. I made Donald's hat white (rather than blue) and cut off the hat tail to look like his chef's hat in the pictures.

Donald Closeup:
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/cricut/cc_cm_donald.jpg.html

Pluto-Both the title ("Pluto") & journaling block are both from the Mickey & Friends cart. Pluto is from the Mickey Font cart. Like what I did with Mickey, his chef's hat is the shell inside the Little Mermaid Title on the Dreams Come True cart. I think this came out cuter on Mickey than Pluto, though! ;)
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/char07_cm_pluto_blury.jpg.html

Goofy-Goofy is from the Mickey Font cart. I made his hat white to look like his chef's hat in the pictures. The title is from the Mickey & Friends cart. It seemed kind of blah, though, so I used the Cuttlebug (Spots & Dots embossing folder) to emboss it, and chalked the edges (the chalk had a tinge of glitter in it, so it matches the paper that has glitter.) It shows up better than in this pic.

Crystal Palace: (No Cricut used on any of these 4 LOs)

Piglet at Crystal Palace. The title is by Sandylion (I used these cool cutouts as the title for all the CP character pages, except Eeyore), but I thought it seemed a bit flat. So I stickled the flowers on the title, and it made a huge difference!

Other meetings:

Captain Hook & Mr Smee-My first pirate related page. :) I really love how this came out, and now I can't wait to work on the other pirate related pages I have from this trip! This LO took forever, but it was worth it in the end! The pic on the first page is one of my favorites from the trip, maybe my favorite character pic, period. They were both great, and you can't see, but I have a big (and natural!) smile in the pic since they were making me laugh.

For the title, I used an EK Success sticker for "Captain Hook." To match that, I made "and Mr Smee" from the Stamped cart. "Mr Smee" was welded together with Design Studio Software, while "and" was already welded on the cart. I couldn't shadow these since I used the normal function on the cart, so I just cut the title out in red & black, and then offset the black onto the red (hopefully that shows up in the pics.)

The scroll for journaling was done with Paper Dolls cart. I chalked the edge and stickled the x red. I've seen several others use this for the journaling on their pirate page, and others stickle the x, but I still love how it came out (and don't ask how long it took to line everything up to print right!)

And, the best part of all is Mr Smee, also made with the Paper Doll cart. I had a lot of fun putting him together. I printed out a second body to get white hands to use for white gloves (I placed it on the mat so I really only cut the hands.) I used Santa's hair & hat, pirate boy's shirt, pants, and shoe buckles, and prince's shoes. I matched the colors for his clothes as best I could. I was going to make glasses in DSS (weird that there aren't any glasses in Paper Dolls!?), but then I remembered I had a Jolee's sticker set for Ben Franklin, and knew these would work for Mr Smee. I had to break the glasses to work on his face, but it's ok. I chalked his cheeks & nose, but it doesn't show up in the pic. I love how he came out. The only thing I should have done was made his eyebrows a little thicker, haha. I made sure to place him away from the Captain Hook sticker on the LO so he didn't tower over Hook. ;)

Pinocchio http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/char07_pinocchio_blur.jpg.html

Wendy-Title is made with sticker letters that I connected, so it looks like one word (I made this LO before I had the Cricut software!)
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/char07_wendy_blur.jpg.html

Timon & Rafiki-This is the one LO I did in this set that I don't really like that much. It just feels like it's missing something. I was going to do different things with the background, but nothing felt right, so I just used this Bazzil cardstock. The title is from the Doodletype cart & welded together with Design Studio Software.

MGM Studios LOs

Right now, I'm working on my MGM Studios pages (it was still called MGM in October!) I only have a few more to do, I guess those will be my first "current" pages to post in this thread!

Stitch Photopass-Since there aren't any Stitch embelishments out there, I made him using SCAL on the Cricut. It was harder to put him together than the cuts on the Disney carts, since those include outlines of where to put the color cuts, but it actually wasn't as hard as I thought. It just took a while since there were a lot of pieces. I cut him pretty big, at 7 1/2 inches, since I knew the smaller he was, the harder it would be! It was SO worth it when he was done though. He came out great, don't you think?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v109/kswm30b/scal_stitch600.jpg

I also used SCAL to cut the title, using the "Dream of Me" font.

Sorcerer's Hat-Title is made from the "Waltograph" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. I made the sorcerer's hat on the second page in Design Studio Software, from the rounded triangle, oval, stars & moon from the George cart. The stars & moon are sticked gold.

Snow White/Dopey Topiary-Title is Happily Ever After cart
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgm_snow_site.jpg.html

Indiana Jones-Months ago, a poster on the Cricut board posted Indiana Jones & Marion dolls she made using the Paper Dolls cart. I posted that I would be using her instructions (and thankfully, they were detailed!) to make my own Indy doll for this page. Since I only used one other embelishment, he really makes the layout! The title is made using the Adventure font in SCAL.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgm_soasf_blur.jpg.html

Singing in the Rain Umbrella Title is from the Alphalicious cart. Umbrella is from the Paper Dolls cart. The water splats on the journaling are rain dots.

Streets of America - NYC-"Streets of America" is from the Opposites Attract cart & welded together with DSS.

Cars. One of the few pages without anything from the Cricut! My final page has a bit of journaling on the left side of the page.
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgm_cars.jpg.html

Toy Story "Toy Story" is cut using the Mickey Font cart. "Story" was cut using DSS to make the letters smaller than 1 inch. Red shape is cut from a rectange on the George cart, then I cut it into correct shape.

Continuing MGM pages, these are all of my Stars & Motor Cars Parade layouts. These were actually the first pages I worked on for this trip. In order as they are in the parade!

Stars & Cars Motor Parade Intro pages - The car & the licence plate for the title are from the Mickey Font cart. The stars (under the character 3D stickers on the first page, and next to the car on the 2nd page) are from George & Basic Shapes cart. The paper is has reflective streamers on it. You can see it better on the 2nd page. On the first page, some of the streamers look red for some reason? Still not sure if I want to add some sort of journaling on here, but I don't want to mess up the LO.

Ratatouille - The title is cut from the trick or treat bag we got at the Halloween party. :) I actually made this page before I even saw the movie!
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_ratat.jpg.html

Toy Story.
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_toystory.jpg.html

Mary Poppins. - I made the carosuel horse by combining 2 cricut cuts: the horse is from Happily Ever After and the post (in gold metalic paper) is from Going Places. The title is from the Alphalicious cart. The designs on the paper are embossed and kind of shiny. The color on the top part of the page is what the full page looks like in real life, btw (the light creats a glare on the bottom part of the page)
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_maryp.jpg.html

Muppets - Title is from the Doodletype cart
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_muppets.jpg.html

Star Wars - I originally was hoping to use the Design Studio software to weld silhouette letters from the Mickey Font to make it look like the Star Wars logo. But I couldn't get it to look right no matter what I tried, so I just cut the letters out using the silhouette feature on the Mickey Font. I still think it looks ok. I also cut out a sword from Paper Dolls, and cut it to look like a lightsaber. I don't think it really looks right, though, and I took this pic before adhering that to the page. I'm still not sure if I want to keep it on or not. I didn't have SCAL when I made this page, otherwise I would have made the title out of a Star Wars font, along with some other cuts. Oh well!
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_sw.jpg.html

Mulan - Title is from the Happily Ever After cart. I originally was going to use the full Mulan logo, but it didn't seem to work on the page, so I just used the inside part that says Mulan, and shadowed that.
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_mulan.jpg.html

Monsters Inc - Made the Monsters Inc logo with the Cricut: the "M" is from the Opposites Attract cart, and the white & black for the eye are from George. I made the white part by combining 2 overlapping circles in Design Studio.
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_monsters.jpg.html

Aladdin - One of my favorites from this set! The Genie is made from the Dreams Come True cart. I cut him too small, so he was really hard to put together. Make him larger than 3 1/2 inches!

Villains
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_villains.jpg.html

Lilo & Stitch - Title is from the Stamped cart, using the same light blue hawaiian paper that I used to mat the pictures. I shadowed with white, but I probably should have used black for the shadow. It would have showed up better. Oh well. I made 3 Stitch related LOs so far, this is my least favorite of the 3!
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_lilo.jpg.html

Little Mermaid - Flounder & "The Little Mermaid" title are both made with the Dreams Come True cart. None of the sparkle really shows up in the pics. In the title, the dark blue part is glitter paper, and the shell part is stickled. I really wanted to keep my LOs for this parade down to one page each, but since I don't think I have any other pics of Ariel during the trip, I figured it was ok to make 2 pages out of this one!

Power Rangers & Playhouse Disney - I didn't have enough pics of Playhouse Disney (a grand total of one) to do a whole page for it, so I decided to combine the two sections of the parade that I wasn't really into anyway. Thankfully, they came right after one another, so the combination worked. Not sure if the actual combo works on the page, though, lol. The background paper works more with PD than Power Rangers. Looking at it now, maybe I should add an "&" somewhere on the page? I scraplifted the idea of making the PD logo from several on the Cricut board. "Power Rangers", "Disney", and the Mickey Head (for the PD title) are all from the Mickey Font cart.
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_power.jpg.html

Snow White - The "Snow White" title is from the Happily Ever After cart (I cut off the "and the Seven Drawfs" from the cut.) The paper used for the title really doesn't show up well, but it's a really beautiful paper, white paper with light blue swirls, with a nice sheen.
http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_snow.jpg.html

Final Car - I used my best pics of the car on the Parade Intro pages, but here I included one that shows the rope following the car and one that shows the trunk in the back of the car. Also pics of the characters that walked in front of the car. I got some GREAT pics from this parade on our March trip, which made me wish I had waited to do these pages! Oh well, I'll figure something out when I do that album (years from now at this rate!)

htp://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgmpar_finalcar.jpg.html

Well, that's it for all the layouts I've completed so far. I'll be back when I have new ones to post! I hope you've enjoyed looking at my layouts. :)

[mmkk]

Terrific job! :cool1: May I scraplift some of these ideas? Man, I wish I had a Cricut!

Terrific job! :cool1: May I scraplift some of these ideas? Man, I wish I had a Cricut!

Of course, I'd be honored. :)

I can't imagine scrapping without my Cricut. I can't recommend it enough, even if you only get the Disney carts!

[dsneygirl]

I just started looking but you have some awesome pages. I love all MHSSHP ones.

Where'd the stars & swirls border come from???

Great layouts BTW!!

It's a fabric border sticker from Queen & Company. And thanks!

[Lisa]

Awesome work! :thumbsup2 I need to step up my game with my cricut. I have many of the same cartridges, but not the same pretty stuff is coming out of it.

I've never seen pictures from MNSSHP and the parks decorated for Halloween. Thanks for sharing.

[labdogs42]

Wow! I haven't opened all the links yet, but the ones I did look great! I need to use my Cricut more. Thanks for the inspiration!

[New England Eeyore]

I just took some time to look through your album. Beautiful work! I jotted down a few ideas to borrow (if you don't mind!) when I finally get around to scrapping my MNSSHP pictures. (The shovel for the HM float, the headless Paul Revere) Looks like we were there just a few days after you!

[Yzerbear19]

I know I've told you before, but your album is fabulous!!!! Amazing and awesome work! :)

[IdoBeliveinFairies]

Great scrapbook! Just looking through and it is really making me think I should go buy a cricut..now

[sylnbry]

Wow! These scrapbook pages are fantastic. Absolutely great. Love your style and creativity!

[kswm30b]

I completely finished my MGM Studios LOs, yay! I always say this, but it was SUCH a pain getting pics of these pages. I worked on the pics for a few hours, but they still aren't as good as the pages in person. *sigh* Anyway, here are my first current LOs for this thread! :)

MGM Main Page-Really simple (intro pages are generally never my favorites!) Paper is from a pack I got at Disney. It's a map of the park (though a bit outdated.) I wanted to use it, but didn't really know how to place a pic & title on the page without covering the park's icons. I placed the pic over a section of the park I didn't go to, so I guess it ended up ok! "MGM" is from the Opposites Attract cart. "Studios" is made from the "Twentieth Century Poster" font, welded & cut with SCAL. Sticker is Sandylion.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mgm_intro.jpg.html

MGM Intro pages-These are the 2nd & 3rd page of the MGM Section. Basically a few random pics from the park & the map and schedule. Again, not that exciting. Paper is Creative Imagination. Camera & star stickers are EK Success. The two MGM stickers I got at Disney. I made photo corners for the park map & schedule so they could come out, though they aren't the cleanest looking! Just realized that I didn't take a pic of the 2 pages together. Oops!

Now my Fantasmic LOs. There are 5 of these (I have a hard time narrowing down pics, as I'm sure you can tell by now! ;)) I don't do this often, but I preplanned how I wanted these pages to look. Of course, then I changed that right away on the first LO! :P I was going to have journaling on each LO about that section of the show, with an arrow to continue to the next LO. However, once I adhered everything but the journaling to the first LO, I decided to just put all my journaling on the first LO. It made it easier to work on the other 4 LOs, but it sort of threw off the look of the first page.

Fantasmic - Main/Intro-I originally was going to make a Mickey on the Cricut for the first page, with a small amount of journaling, but instead I had to use the full block on that page for journaling. So, I only used a small Mickey sticker (from EK Success) instead. Kind of throws the balance off a bit, but oh well. As I wrote in the journaling, most of the pics on these 5 LOs are from my March trip. I had such problems getting pics on this trip at the show, and it was so frustrating! Thankfully I was really happy with my pics in March from the show.

Paper is DCWV (Rock Star pack), title is K & Company gittered chipboard (it's very glittery, that doesn't really show up in the pic!) Matting paper for the single pics is DCWV (Metallic stack), for the grouped pics is Bazzil Bling.

Fantasmic - Princess Boats-My favorite part of the show. :) The paper (by cloud nine) for this is so beautiful in person. It's embossed and shiny. "Princess" in the title is a patch that I got at the Disney store on clearance for about 40 cents! I should have bought more!! "Boats" is glitter stickers from Martha Stewart. It's a really rich, dark pink in person. They also don't look straight in the pic for some reason, but they are on the page, lol.

The tag on the 2nd page is K & Company, though I added a few jeweled flowers to the right side of the tag. Rest of the stickers are EK Success. Again, the pics look much better in person, I need to upload them to my gallery!

Fantasmic - Villains-I spotted my spelling mistake after taking the pic, *sigh* This was only the 8th time I've done a LO that includes the word "villains", but I finally mispelled it, lol. After the fact, maybe I should have gone with different paper since all the other LOs for the show use black paper. Oh well!

Title is American Crafts glitter chipboard stickers. Paper is My Mind's Eye. Matting paper for the single pics is DCWV (Metallic stack), for the grouped pics is Bazzil Bling. The old hag is a patch. Dragon is Karen Foster (I stickled the fire coming out of his mouth.) All other stickers (including both phrases) are EK Success.

Fantasmic - Mickey Saves the Day-The 2nd page of this LO really should follow the final LO, but I didn't want a one page LO in the middle of 2 page LOs, so I combined them. Creative License. ;) The pics on the first page are some of my favorites I've taken at Disney!

Can't believe I didn't use the cricut on any LO until this one, but I guess I made up for it here! Mickey on the first page is cut from the Mickey & Friends cart & his sword is from the Paper Dolls cart. "Mickey Saves the Day" is made from the "Waltograph" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. On the second page, Sorcerer Mickey was saved from Vector-Cartoons.com (like I did with Stitch on another LO) and cut with SCAL. Love how he came out! For whatever reason, though, his tongue didn't cut out, so I cut one from the M&F cart (same one used on the 1st page Mickey.)

The 2nd page seems to be missing something for me. I tried a few things in the empty space, but nothing worked right. Oh well, I still love this LO in spite of that bothering me! Paper is Sandylion.

Fantasmic - Character Boat-Final LO for the show. This one photographed the worst of the bunch. :( The paper used for the title and boat is really pretty. It's pearlescent with swirls, by WorldWin. It doesn't show up in the pics, though. Title is from Cursive 101 cart, welded with Design Studio Software. Boat is from the Going Places cart. Paper is DCWV (Rock Star pack.) Princess stickers are Sandylion, other character stickers are EK Success. I love how the Ariel sticker fit perfectly on the end of the boat, since that's where she is on the actual boat in the show! I probably had the most pics for this section, it was hard enough to narrow down to these 9 pics!!

So, now I'm ready to move on to the Magic Kigdom. I actually did this LO way back when I did my character pages, but it didn't fit any of the categories, so I forgot to post it here.

Fighting Captain Hook-Outside Pirates of the Caribbean they have a photopass picture where you are fighting Captain Hook, and they add him in later. I fought Hook, and my mom acted scared behind me. She does a better acting job than me. :P The scroll used for journaling is from the Paper Dolls cart (chalked the edge and stickled the x red.) Paper is Rusty Pickle, matting paper is Sandylion, 2 stickers are EK Success.

Now I'm all caught up with posting my Disney LOs. :) The 3pm Dreams parade should be next (I have those pics printed), unless I get sidetracked!

[scrappinmom]

WOW - is the first thing I have to say..ALL of your pages are just beautiful...

& the second thing I have to say is....

scraplift, scraplift, scraplift!

thanks for some new inspiration!

[disneydreamer98]

Great LO's! I think that I have seen these before over on the Cricut Board! :)

[Pooh_Girl]

Great Layouts!!!! :thumbsup2 Lovin it!!!

[mmkk]

I'm lovin' the new additions to your album! Great job!

[kswm30b]

Thanks everyone. :)

Great LO's! I think that I have seen these before over on the Cricut Board! :)

Haha, yea, I've posted several of them there. I'm really behind posting LOs there, though. I think I'll be able to keep up to date here easier! Especially if someone yells at me if I go a while without posting one. :P

[Yzerbear19]

The Fantasmic ones are great! I *LOVE* Scorcerer Mickey! He is way cute! :)

[kswm30b]

I've completed 3 more LOs. I'm just starting the Dreams Come True Parade. :)

Usual "I had an insanely hard time getting pics of these pages" warning applies. Even more than usual, these pics look too dark (and even a bit blurry?) :(

Photopass-One of my favorite services Disney has is their Photopass. For a photo freak like me, it's fantastic!! I included 2 pics of the photopass photographers that my mom captured (sometimes by accident!), as well as a before & after pic of when they add a character into one of their magic shots.

Title was made with the Opposites Attract cart. Paper is Basic Grey. Arrows are Heidi Swapp. All other stickers & embelishments are EK Success/Jolee's. It's hard to see, but the Goofy sticker, it's film that's been pulled out of his camera (but it just looks black in the pic of the page), so cute!

Disney Dreams Come True Parade - Intro- This is the first of 10 layouts for the parade. We sort of lucked into the parade just minutes after entering the Magic Kingdom on our first day, we couldn't believe it (we planned to see it later in the week!) I got much better pics on our March trip than the October trip because we were in a better spot and didn't have people in front of us. So many of the pics I'll be using for these parade LOs is actually from my March trip, but since I'm not going to scrap the parade twice, I figured that was ok. ;)

Title is made from the "Waltograph" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. I realized too late that I'm missing the "s" in the title. Unlike most of the time, I couldn't pull the letters off the page, grr. So the parade is for one dream, now, not many, lol. It is spelled correctly in my journaling & in the pic, so hopefully that's enough! Paper & Mickey sticker are Sandylion. The "a parade of dreams" is a Creative Imagination rubon that I put on black paper, then matted on purple, and inked both with silver.

Enchanted pre-parade-This is the only LO solely from our March trip, but I figured it made sense to just include it with the other parade LOs. Because Enchanted was coming out a few weeks later, they had Giselle from Enchanted as the pre-parade to the Dreams parade. I was so excited (and only found out by accident here on the DISboards, thank goodness!) Of course now I had to see the parade on this trip (and, as I mentioned, we were so happy we saw it again because we had a great angle in front of the castle, and enjoyed it even more this time!) I was SO happy I found out about this, because there was nothing else Enchanted related in the parks. Really annoying & disappointing. Anyway, the pre-parade was so cute, and Giselle looks just like Amy Adams!

Obviously there isn't much out there as Enchanted embelishments. I found an Enchanted coloring book at Michaels, which included stickers. So I used two of those, as well as a tag of something Enchanted related I bought at the Disney Store, all on the 2nd page. There was one image in the coloring book that was a clear image of Giselle wearing her wedding dress, so I scanned it in and was hoping to trace it in inkscape & then cut it in SCAL. After I opened it in inkscape, though, I realized that there would be WAY too many cuts (at least 50 alone as the ruffle of her dress, and that doesn't even include her face and hair!) So I decided to just trace it so it would be a silhouette, and I think that worked out fine. It came out great, of course I forgot to take a pic/scan it before adhering her on the page!

The title was also cut with SCAL, from the "Chocolate Box" font. I orginally wasn't going to shadow it, but that font didn't look right without the shadow (thankfully these letters came off the page!) The title is cut from DCWV glitter paper. Paper is DCWV's Luxury Paper Pack (so pretty!), Flowers are Prima, crown brads are Making Memories, photo corners are American Crafts, and a jeweled crown photo corner (doesn't show up on the pic, but is on the 2nd page) is Heidi Swapp. I'm so disappointed the pic of this LO doesn't show up well, I love this LO & the pics themselves. I might have to retake pics of this LO because it's annoying me! *sigh*

Thank you so much! Yes, I LOVE my Cricut. You can see how often I use it on my pages (I've only scrapped one non-Disney layout since November, lol!) I've recently started to get into digital scrapping (love it a lot more than I expected!), but I could never give up paper scrapping because I LOVE my Cricut too much! I definitely think it's the best investment a scrapper can make, especially since you can find the baby bug so cheap now.

It's a lot of LOs, but I've been working on this album since Nov. I've completed at least 15 pages (not layouts) a month, which isn't actually too bad if you think about it that way. I actually had hoped to be further along than I am now. I'm going back to Disney in Sept, I can't imagine being done with this album before then. :(

[Pooh_Girl]

I have a random question for you...what is SCAL??? I've seen it in the description on some of your pages, and I've never heard of this.

[Macca1111]

I like your layouts, but what I'm most impressed by is the excellent pictures you got of some of the difficult things to shoot, like Fantasmic. Many of my Fantasmic pictures never come out, including those princess floats, so I was super impressed by your pics! Any hints? Do you have a tripod or do you do anything special? Thanks for sharing! :thumbsup2

[kswm30b]

Ooh, sorry! SCAL is Sure Cuts a Lot. It's a program that allows you to cut any True Type font on your computer, along with any vector images. I was a little hesitant about getting it at first, but I'm SO glad I decided to take the plunge because it's amazing! Here's their site with more info (there's also a forum where people post tips and such):

Oh, thank you! I had a horrible time getting pics of Fantasmic on my October trip, so many of my pics in the LOs are from my March trip. I have the Canon S5 (my Oct pics were with the Canon S2, though), and I just play around with the settings (if it helps, for the princess floats, my settings were shutter speed 1/20 and apeture f/3.5.) I didn't use a tripod for any of my pics. My only hint is to take lots of pics, which I certainly do, lol. The more you take, the better photographer you become. Plus, even if you get lots of bad ones, you're bound to get some good pics!

Yes, that does help, thanks! ;) That's one of the reasons I'll probably go to a Digital SLR eventually, so I can take more pictures and not worry about them turning out. Right now I hate to waste too much film! (Insert little photographer smiley here...)

[Pooh_Girl]

I have one more question for you...How do you get your pictures and fonts from SCAL to your computer and then over to the cricut?? Do you just have to download the fonts and then the cricut cuts them, or do you have to use design studio?? How does the no cartridge thing work??? I'm sorry I have so many question, but there are sooooo many really cool things out there for the cricut and I want to find out if I really "Need" them!!! :lmao:

[tink,too]

Oh, wow, you still use film! ;) OK, then I understand! Hopefully those settings will help you!

I'm sorry I have so many question, but there are sooooo many really cool things out there for the cricut and I want to find out if I really "Need" them!!! :lmao:

SCAL is a program on the computer where you use the fonts, and then you use a usb cable to connect your cricut to your computer. You don't need design studio to use SCAL, though I think you need the trial version to upgrade your Cricut's firmware, but I'm not 100% sure of that (I also have the design studio and love it, too!) SCAL then will cut what you have on their virtual cutting mat on the screen rather than what you would type on the Cricut keypad, that's why you don't need a cartridge. I still love my carts, and would never get rid of them, especially the Disney carts!

LOL, I hope I helped, I know I'm not great at explaining things. ;) I know I definitely "Need" my Cricut, Design Studio, SCAL, and all my Disney carts! :P There's also a board for SCAL, with lots of tutorials, tips, and designs, here:

[kswm30b]

Finally!! Here are my next 3 LOs from the Dreams Come True Parade (I've finished the parade, so I have 4 more LOs that I've completed, but I haven't finished uploading the pics of the LOs yet.)

It Was All Started By A Mouse-The first section of the parade. I was going to cut the title with the Cricut, but I had a good pic from the side of the float, and I cut it out so it looks like an element. :) I cut Mickey with a blue outfit & white shoes to match how he looks in the parade, and he's from the Mickey & Friends cart. The paper, from Sandylion, is shiny & embossed. It was SO perfect for this LO! Sorcerer Mickey sticker is from the customized maps that we were sent from Disney.

Wish Upon a Star-Second section of the parade. I spent forever trying to decide what paper to use for this LO! I finally ended up with these pages from K & Company's Wild Saffron pack. I think it worked out ok (I hope!) The title is made from the "Started by a Mouse" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL, using DCWV's glitter paper (shadowed with their cardstock.) Geppetto & Pinocchio is a patch. Jiminy Cricket, Dwarfs & gemstones stickers are from EK Success. I love how the gemstones on the side of the Snow White pic match the gemstones in the pic (it looks better in person ;))

A Hundred-Thousand Dreams to See-Third section of the parade. This LO was a bit difficult because there are SO many different characters with it (Aladdin/Genie, Alice/Mad Hatter, Mary Poppins, and the Pooh characters.) Title is again made from the "Started by a Mouse" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL (in the picture, the dash is in the wrong place in the title, but I fixed it after!) I had problems cuting the Genie out last time because I cut him too small, so this time I cut him at 4 1/2...much easier!! He's from the Dreams Come True cart. The Mary Poppins silhouette is so cute! She's cut with SCAL (downloaded from the SCAL boards before I even had SCAL!!) Paper is DCWV Glitter stack (it's hard to see in the pics, but most of the stars & circles have glitter on them.) Lamp, Piglet, and Eeyore stickers are from EK Success.

[kswm30b]

Guess what I have?? I've finally uploaded the last 4 parade LOs for the Dreams Come True Parade (I finished them over a month ago!) Yay! Scroll up to see the first 3 sections of the parade.

Face the Darkest Fears-The 4th section, this is the Villains section! So fun! Title is made from the "Gracey's Curse" font, welded & cut with SCAL. All character stickers are EK Success. Paper is Doodlebug?

As Long As There Is Imagination In The World-The 5th section of the parade, this is another one that's a bit difficult because this section has lots of characters. The title is really long, so instead of cutting it out, I just used a picture I had from the back of the float that has the name. I also like that pic because it has a pic of Walt in the crystal. I matted the pic on white shimmer paper, then DCWV blue glitter paper, and inked the edges. Hopefully that makes it stand out as the title!

Paper, Peter Pan sticker, and green mickey head are EK Success. The Stitch element is a magnet I got at Disney. I thought it was perfect for this LO because it looks like he's in the same crystal as on the float. Hopefully. ;) My pics from the parade do not show up well in the pics of this LO, but the crystal balls show up beautifully in those pics.

Happily Ever After-The 6th section of the parade, and my favorite. This is one of my fav LOs from the parade, too! I had several ideas for the title. I was going to cut the title using a font with SCAL or with the Happily Ever After cart. Instead, I cut the title from paper in DCWV's Once Upon A Time Paper Pack (8x8 pack.) Background paper is DCWV's Luxury Paper Pack & I used DCWV's Metallic mat stack to mat the pictures. Rhinestone crown is Me & My Big Idea, flowers are Prima, flower centers are from "Bling it On" kit. Three Princesses, pumpkin, and bird stickers are EK Success.

A Kingdom of Dreams-The 7th & final section of the parade. Title is made from the "Waltograph" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. Minnie is from the Mickey & Friends cart. She looks purple in the pics, but she's really the same color blue as Minnie wears in the parade. I stickled her bow & dress, leaving her sash plain, which is like her outfit in the parade. I used rhinestones from "Bling it On" kit on her shoes.

I also enhanced the Pluto & Donald stickers from EK Success for this LO. Pluto's collar got stickled green. I removed the yellow parts of Donald's shirt (so that he would match what he wore in the parade), and stickled his bow white. Neither enhancement shows up that well in the pic, though. Paper is Luxe, and the Merryweather sticker (which I thought compliments the title perfectly) is Sandylion.

Great as usual!!! I absolutely LOVED the Mickey's Philharmagic pages!!!

[kswm30b]

I love your work - it has inspired me to finally get our May DCL cruise scrapped! :thumbsup2

Thank you!! I am so happy to inspire you to work on your album! I know looking at other's LOs always inspires me!!

Aww, thank you! I downloaded him from Vector-Cartoons.com, it was really easy to break him apart after that.

Great as usual!!! I absolutely LOVED the Mickey's Philharmagic pages!!!

Thank you. :) Haha, I haven't even posted that LO here yet! I'll be back tomorrow to post the next 4 LOs (including Philharmagic), I just have to double check the fonts used so I get them right for credits!

That's funny!! :lmao: I always go straight to your pages and look at everything!!! You do such great work!!! Your MNSSHP pages have given me such awesome ideas for mine after we get back from our trip in October. I even have all my paper already picked out!!! Now I just have to talk DH into letting me get design studio. :rolleyes1

Haha! Nah, that's the smart way to do it since I post so many at a time. ;) Aww, thanks so much! I'm going back in Sept (I'm not even going to finish the MK section of my Oct '07 by then, let alone the rest of book, including all of Epcot & AK! Eek!), and already can't wait to scrap MNSSHP again!

[kswm30b]

Here are the other 4 LOs that I completed that I finally have uploaded & credited. :) Hopefully I can print some of my pics SOON so I can get some more LOs done before I go back to Disney in less than a month!

Hall of Fame - Princess Tent-I already did the 3 character pages for this, but this is the overall page for this attraction. :) No Cricut, but I still like how it came out. Paper & crowns are EK Success, scallop paper is DCWV, princess epoxy stickers are Sandylion, journaling sticker is Creative Imaginations, ribbon is 3 birds.

Crystal Palace-Like above, I already did my character pages for CP, but this is the LO for the restaurant in general. Title is made from the "Delitsch Antiqua" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. DCWV glitter paper was used for the title, it's VERY glittery! The Pooh paper piecing is not mine, I got him off ebay a while ago (pre DSS, SCAL, & Pooh carts!) Paper is Cosmo Cricket, photo corner rubons is American Crafts, "Hunny" pumpkin is EK Success, and Pooh stickers are Sandylion.

Crystal Palace Bday-For my mom's bday celebration at the restaurant. She got the card signed by all the characters, the table was decorated with streamers and mickey head confetti, and she got a cupcake. So fun! Title is made from the "Pooh" font, cut & welded with SCAL. The confetti is used to dot the "i"s in the title. It's also on the 2nd page bordering the Pooh picture & in the mickey pouch (the pic of the page doesn't really show off the pouch, but it's cute!.) Paper is DCWV Glitter Stack (the color streamers are all glitter), Pooh stickers are Sandylion, and cupcake is EK Success.

Mickey's Philharmagic-This is one of my FAV attractions, and I took a long time on this LO because I wanted to love it as much as the attraction. ;) Donald (who I made MONTHS ago!) and "Mickey's" in the title are from the Mickey & Friends cart. "Philharmagic" is made from the "Started By A Mouse" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. Used DCWV glitter paper for "Philharmagic", and shimmer paper for "Mickey's". The journaling is printed on music paper, though it's hard to see in this pic. Paper is Creative Imaginations (I thought it looks like the curtain in front of the stage.) Sorcerer's hat sticker is Karen Foster & rhinestone music note is Me & My Big Ideas. I'm not sure who makes the epoxy music stickers & music brads because I got them ages ago, and they weren't in their original packaging.

Heather, Thanks for sharing all your pages. They are amazing. I need to get reinspired to start working on my book from out Jan 2007 trip. This might just be the kick in the butt I needed. Everytime I see your pages I think I need to get SCAL and CDS. I think they are going to be on the top of my Christmas list this year. :santa:

[AKGAL]

Wow, I am going to WDW the same time this year and have been working on getting some ideas before I go. Your pages are beautiful.

[PixieDust32]

Love your pages!

Can you tell me what's SCAL? You mentioned on your stitch page?

Vector-Cartoons and cut with SCAL

Thanks

Thank you! And yes, you NEED SCAL & CDS. I can't scrap without them.

Thank you. :) I think when we went was such a great time (I never finished my trip report, I should do that before I go again!) The weather was great & it wasn't too crowded. We are going in late Sept this year, and I'm really worried about the heat!

Love your pages!

Can you tell me what's SCAL? You mentioned on your stitch page?

Thank you!

SCAL is Sure Cuts a Lot. It's a program that allows you to cut any True Type font on your computer, along with any vector images. I was a little hesitant about getting it at first, but I'm SO glad I decided to take the plunge because it's amazing! Here's their site with more info (there's also a forum where people post tips and such):
http://craftedge.com/
I have some more info on the program on pg 3 of this thread, but if you have any other questions, let me know! I've been using SCAL a lot on recent LOs.

[PixieDust32]

Thank you!

[Kyen]

I just finished looking at your whole book and the only thing I can say is WOW. You did a great job on it!!!!!!!

[kswm30b]

I just finished looking at your whole book and the only thing I can say is WOW. You did a great job on it!!!!!!!

Thanks! I can't wait to get back to work on it, I'm just waiting for the pics I just got printed to arrive. But then I'm going back to Disney in 15 days (yay!!), so who knows what'll happen when I get home! I really wish I was more finished than I am (I know that sounds crazy with 150+ pages, but you should see the list I still have left to do!) I was at least hoping to be done with the Magic Kingdom by this trip. Oh well! I'll just never be done scrapping Disney, which is ok. ;)

[kswm30b]

Here are the LOs I've completed the last few days. I really was hoping to work on both Haunted Mansion & Pirates before my trip (I leave on Monday!!) I also thought I could work on a few more single page LOs today, but I didn't get a chance. So, this will definitely be the last LOs until I get back. Wonder if I'll finish this trip before I go back in '09, haha!

Small World-I scraplifted Yzerbear's idea of putting pics all around the edge from her Small World paper LO. This is sort of a hybrid LO. I orignally was going to print 2 pics on a 4x6 and then cut it in half (so each pic would be 4x3), but then I just decided that it would be easier to place the pics digitally on 12x12 & go from there. I debated about whether to use digital paper for the empty space or just keep it white and add real paper later. I went with white, but I probably should have used digital paper (I like the final result, but it would have been easier.) Once I had the LO printed, I added the usual elements to the page. "It's a Small World" is made from the "Storybook" font, cut with SCAL, using DCWV glitter paper. I've always liked this font, but hadn't cut with it yet. I LOVE the way the title came out! Paper is Anna Griffin (8x8, so I just had to cut 2 inches off, and it fit perfectly in the empty space) and the stickers are EK Success. This may not be the best LO I've done, but it's one of my favorites. I really love the way it came out.

Buzz Lightyear-"Buzz" is from the Opposites Attract cart, using the DCWV glitter paper (again!) Need to double check what paper was used, I can't remember. All stickers are EK Success. I had too many pics for this ride, it was taking me forever to figure out how to place the pics, even after I eliminated one pic!

The rest of these are single page LOs, ones I knew I could finish quickly before our next trip. So, not necessarily my favorites. ;)

Peter Pan's Flight-I hope I get some good pics during the ride this time, but on this trip, I really didn't get anything during the ride. Title is made from the "Started By A Mouse" font, cut with SCAL. Rhinestone is from "Bling it On" kit, character stickers are from EK Success. Paper has all kinds of Peter Pan words on it. I tried to place it so you could read some of them, like Tink, you can fly!, off to neverland, and Peter Pan (sort of!)

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mk_peterpan.jpg.html

WDW Railroad-Paper by Sandylion, stickers by EK Success, and chipboard letters by Lil' Davis (I love using these look-like-wood chipboard letters!) I never got a pic of the Toontown station on this trip, so I took that one during the PPP in March, when it was dark. Oh well, haha.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mk_railroad.jpg.html

Extra Magic Hours-LO for both the morning & evening Extra Magic Hours at Magic Kingdom. Title is from the Mickey Font cart. The matching of the orange on the pamphlet and the orange in the paper was total coincidence. I picked the paper before I even remembered that I had the pamphlet. ;) (I had to not use one of the pics I was planning to so I could add it.) Paper and stickers are by EK Success.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mk_emh.jpg.html

Frontierland-OK, this was a digi LO (seen here (http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/digi/disney/frontierland600.jpg.html), but I deleted 3 elements in the upper right hand corner. Then I printed the LO, and added the Mickey sticker. It came out cute! Other than the glare, I love the pic of this LO, because I think all the elements on the page look real. The Mickey sticker doesn't stand out as being real with the rest looking digital. The stitching, frames, etc all look just as real as the added sticker (and it looks like that in real life, too.)

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mk_frontier_hybrid.jpg.html

I'm more than halfway done my Magic Kingdom LOs (depending on how many LOs I want to do for a few things, like the castle and the castle show.) Then I still have Epcot & AK, and other random things. *sigh* I hope when I get back I can plow through these...I'm sure I'll want to work on this year's album soon (not to mention the short trip from March!)

I have about 20 digi LOs that I've done for this trip, I should probably post them in this thread, too. I'll have to do that when I get back. :)

Oh, and since I have no where else to post this, haha, here's the cover for the autograph book I made for this trip:

Great pages as usual!!! :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2 I just have one question for you...Where do you get your paper?? It's soooooo cute!!!

[kswm30b]

Great pages as usual!!! :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2 I just have one question for you...Where do you get your paper?? It's soooooo cute!!!

Thanks :) Oh, I get it all over! I can never have enough paper. ;) I get papers at LSS, the big scrapbook/craft stores, and mousememories.com (most of my Disney stuff comes from there, probably.)

[New England Eeyore]

I always love looking at your pages and always get a lot of inspiration! I've been sorting pictures lately to work on my "park" albums - not trip specific, but ride specific and you've given me so many good ideas! Thanks for sharing, and have a wonderful trip!!

[Jenroc]

Just discovered this thread ... wonderful thread !!!

[kswm30b]

I'm just bumping this up because I have several LOs I need to add (and I don't want to have to go searching for the thread again, lol.) Yes, finally! I've been really behind in paper scrapping, partly because I've really gotten into digi scrapping. ;) I have done 4 LOs recently, though, I just need to edit my pics of the pages and then I can post them.

I'm determined to finally finish this trip's Scrapbook(s) before my next trip (in December, for my birthday, our first Disney trip during the holidays!) I have gone back to Disney 3 times since, and I've been jumping around doing LOs for those trips, but I want one of these trips to just be complete! I have done about 50 digi LOs for this trip, too, and I'll eventually add those links here.

[kswm30b]

Actually got a chance to work on my pics of the LOs today, and they are all uploaded. Hopefully anyone following this album is still here. ;) Here are my 4 recent LOs. Still working on the Magic Kingdom (getting closer to being done, though!) The usual I can't figure out how to get a good pic of my LO warning still applies. ;)

Haunted Mansion-This is my favorite of the 4 LOs, though it was really hard to narrow down my pics for the LO. Title is made from the "Gracey's Curse" font, cut with SCAL. Background paper is DCWV's Fall Glitter Pack, tombstone paper is Reminise, ghost sticker is Sandylion, funny bones sticker from K & Company, all other stickers are EK Success.

Pirates of the Carribean-Only one I didn't use the Cricut for. The large coin I got about a year ago, at a pirate exhibit at the Franklin Institute. We went back to the table a few times so I could grab a few more, since I knew it would be perfect for the many pirate LOs I'm going to do. ;) Pictures look better in person than in these pics.
Paper is Rusty Pickle. So is "Cap'n Jack", which is actually from the paper strip that you cut off the bottom of 12x12 paper (that's the name of the collection for this paper. I did this for one of my MNSSHP parade LOs, too.) Title sticker I got at Disney; Jack, boat, and small coins & gem stickers are Sandylion, "Pirates life for me" sticker is Karen Foster, Mickey, chest, hat, and "yo-ho" stickers are EK Success.

Winnie the Pooh Ride-I like this LO better than we liked the ride. Have to try it again sometime, since it stalled 3 times while we were on it & that might have clouded our judgement of the ride. The line is always really long, though, so I haven't made it back yet. Title is made from the "Kristen" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. Bee stickers (on title) from EK Success, paper and other stickers are Sandylion.

Tomorrowland-This one is pretty simple, because the paper is so cool, it didn't need much embelishment. The paper is really shimmery. :) Title is made from the "Twentieth Century Poster" font, cut with SCAL. Paper is Reminise, stickers are EK Success.

Hopefully those were sort of worth the wait? :D

Great Layouts!!!!!!!! :thumbsup2 Definately worth the wait!!!!

[tink,too]

Great work! :thumbsup2

I finally had a moment to go through all of the pages. They are ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! I love everything you did and the creative process behind it.

[New England Eeyore]

Great pages! I'm glad to see you updating again - I've always loved looking at your pages.
