Toppers & Tags due October 16

This is a simple swap. For each group you're in, you will make a title:topper and one element choice.

1. Due date is October 16. That is when I need to receive your package. Mail by date is October 9, to make sure your package arrives to me.

2. You pick your topic when you sign-up

3. Please limit yourself to 2 groups when signing up if I have not swapped with you before.

4. Required: You will make ONE Topper and ONE element choice from the list below for each person in your group. There will be a different number people per group so please double check your amounts.

5. Packaging Instructions
Place your completed elements in a Ziploc bag with your DIS name, name and group number. Place all your baggies for a group in a GALLON size bag, and label with the same. Please use a gallon bag – even if your pieces are smaller and may not require it, the pieces you will be getting back may be bigger.

6. Postage:
Please include cash, check or stamps (No Click-it/ship-it postage). If you are in less than 4 groups, include $4.95 for the priority envelopes. If you are in 4 or more groups, please include $10.35 for the priority box. If you would like delivery confirmation on your returned swap, also include the $0.65 and a filled out slip.

7. PM me with your name, address, email address, contact phone number- even if you have swapped with me before. If you have problems and need to drop out or if an emergency happens (we all know things happen beyond our control sometimes), let me know so we can make arrangements for an angel or other help if needed.

8. Most importantly HAVE FUN!! I know we all get worried about our stuff sometimes. I know everything will be GREAT! Just make something you would be proud to have in your own albums, and everyone will love it!!

Suggestions for embellishments include:
Die cuts, stickers, stickles, flock, ink, chalk, brads, charms, flowers, eyelets, ribbon/fiber, sewing, tearing, embossing, stamping, clipart, additional layers of paper beyond double mats (if it would look weird trying to fit in another embellishment, specialty paper (such as embossed, glitter, Bling).

If you can think of no way to embellish your item, without it looking weird, you can provide an embellishment not attached to your item, such as a Cricut icon cutout, or a set of 4 brads/eyelets, a yard of ribbon/fiber, etc.

Note: Please no handwritten items.

In general, please follow the “hopemax” guidelines for quality – Do you love it? Are you proud of it? Would you use it in your book? If you can answer yes to those 3 questions, you should be fine.

The title topper could be paper pieced names on the Cricut carts, welded (SCAL, DS, Wishblade etc) words or traditional 8x2, signage 6x2, license plate [the last three must be embellished]

The element is to be chosen from the list below:
Photo Mat: 1 PP first/top layer no smaller than 6-1/4 x 4-1/4, double matted and embellished
Journaling Box: 1PP at least a 3x3 writing area, double matted with actual journal area placed on top of the two mats and embellished
Tag: 1 PP for medium or large tags, 2 pp for 2x3 tags, double matted and embellished two ways, include either ribbon/fiber or eyelet/brad in the hole. May include both....the fiber and or eyelet does not count as part of the 2 embellishments.
Embellished Shapes: 3PP 1-1/2x1-1/2 or larger if you wish, double matted and embellished. These can be circles, squares, flowers, etc. be creative. If it is a shape that would not look right double matted please use your best judgment.....Just make up for it in another way. Maybe make a few extra or throw in something extra.
Slide Mounts: 2PP be creative here please

Also in group 3B (this is probably because I made you fix the other thing), it's Tomorrowland instead of Toontown. :goodvibes

Oh! I just realized what you said. I thought you wanted to switch, you want me to make you an extra one. Ignore the earlier post if you saw it. :rotfl:

Speaking of which, you and AZ have little buck-toothed surprises winging their way to you in August. Michelle has them now.

Give me a minute and I'll decide. :)

I'd like a Dole Whip Theme, actually... that is my favorite part of Adventureland. :rotfl2:

Whatever you have enough of is good with me - I like both Jungle Cruise and Pirates of the Caribbean, so it will fit in no matter where.

Is that idea to do that as a 3 in 1 - The title would be Triple Mountain Whammy and I have a cute thing in mind for the element.

If it is okay, sign me up

I already have my layout designed in my head with the larger photos of the front of the rides. :thumbsup2 and maybe some smaller wallet sizes of each ride (well the waiting part of Space).

My DH is soo funny. "So, Eldest, who knew you were getting a girlfriend out the deal?" Eldest is yet again, six shades of red. :rotfl2: Thankfully he is not into girls that way. They don't have cooties, but they aren't causing the star struck looks yet either.

Will someone please join the EPCOT countries.....this is the one group I really wanted to join as I've not done them before. Anyone want to play with me and fill the next group? Here's what I'd like.
#1 - donald
#2 - belle
#3B - Toontown
#4B - teacups
#5B - Mexico
Restaurant - Chef Mickey's

Thanks and have a good night.....I may be back to check other groups when I have more time.

Thanks for the push, momx3boys. I don't know if you can tell by my signature but I'm also a momx3boys (14, 10, 4). I always feel like when I meet someone who has all boys we're kinda in a special club that only we can understand. It's never a dull moment. I grew up with all sisters so this boy thing is a new adventure for me.

Down to business. If you don't mind, I'll finish out the groups for
#8 - Camp Minnie Mickey
and
#6 - TBD
Thats all, I'm finished, done, done, done.
Unless Susie is offering to start a "Swap with Susie's Triple Mountain Whammy Group" ......then sign me up. The pressure's now on.....we're all waiting to see your creation! :goodvibes

I am opening up new groups as the old ones fill just in case later on in the week, when I said I would start sign ups, there are folks who would be sad to see all the groups filled.

These fit nice in the folders for swapping out, so I can handle more groups than I could if we had pages or multiple elements.

I think it's because you knew some of us were going to sign up for about 10 groups....

You know, I still haven't gotten anything back from swaps yet (recipe swap is the first due back... in about a week or two!!!! :thumbsup2).

Her screen name suites her to a "T". She is such a cutiepatootie. Her DDs are super cute too. Eldest was impressed with the class, he made me sign him up for the exploding box one. :thumbsup2 They made the cutest accordion albums. They had to fold the pages themselves, so he said he could make more if he wanted to. I may have him make some for his element in his group. Would that be okay?

My sister, Pegasus (she doesn't like this name, but she can deal...), wonders if she could do the Pirate and Princess party for the Kiddo group. Has WyFy been to that? ETA: And CoolCat too...

Or would she be better doing the Crystal Palace?

Or... should we suggest something else? We don't want her to do something that you (AWM) will already be doing (ie - the Seas or Safari, which she thought of first).

I'd hate to bail on those who joined just to help me out. If someone wants to trade countries for the first group, I can do one of the others, or I can make two different Mexico themes and do both groups. Or, I can not be an Epcot hog and let someone else do it if they really want to. Doesn't matter to me, just let me know. I haven't done my Epcot pages for the last two trips so I can use them. :goodvibes

I am gone until Tuesday evening.

123SA is watching the sign ups.

Please feel free to keep signing up.

I will be closing this and finalizing numbers on Wednesday.

Be good.


I'm here! I am assuming this means I can open new groups for any that fill.




8B - Flights of Wonder

I'll make a note of that and I may be joining in there as well. Need to think about a topic.

Any more takers?

There are two Epcot countries that need filling -- Germany and Norway. Other spots are available too. See the post above for open spots.

ZeroToHero
08-03-2009, 10:01 PM
I'm going to throw something out there really quick - for the Transportation group, I bought these cute bus titles, but they only had six of them... and I haven't seen them anywhere else near me. So no one feel obligated to sign up to fill it... :rotfl:

However, if someone wants to, that's fine too. I'm sure I can either duplicate it or make something just as good for the rest.

Arizona Rita
08-03-2009, 10:49 PM
I really hope someone takes those 2 countries, please?!:)

08-04-2009, 07:57 AM
We're on the final countdown. Don't make me get out my cheerleading skirt again, once in an adult lifetime is enough!

Anyway, please sign be up for 2B - Ariel. I'm still thinking about Animal Kingdom and DHS.

Girls, now it's your turn to make the sacrafice! :lmao: Just one more group for each of you and we will have a full swap!

mla1977
08-04-2009, 08:06 AM
Oh please sign up for DHS! I don't have anything for that yet in the 2 years that I have been swapping here. I always miss out on them!

I will take a spot in 9-Restaurants.

For those already in there, what would you like to see...
Spirit of Aloha luau
Tony's Town Square
Le Cellier
Main Street Bakery

Let me know! :banana:

123SA
08-04-2009, 01:27 PM
I am in the restaurant grp -- I haven't been to the luau, but I have been to all of the others.

Updated to here. See the last post on page 9 for the updates.

ZeroToHero
08-04-2009, 02:20 PM
For 7B, would you guys want an American Idol topper n' element of choice? (So snappy...) or would that not get used? I'll join, but not sure what to make yet, if you don't want that. I'll look over my lists for other options.

AlexWyattMommy
08-04-2009, 03:50 PM
I don't think my boys will ever want to do American Idol, but if others can use it, go for it.

:hippie:THANK YOU SUSAN!!!:hippie:
You did a great job keeping the sign ups going for me.


I am updated to here.

tyniknate
08-04-2009, 04:35 PM
I, also, have been to everything but the luau. Whatever you want to do is fine.

I haven't been to the American Idol thing and since we have no plans on being able to go back soon, I don't know when we'll get there. If that's what you want to make, I say make it. Someday, sometime, some way I'll get there again.

Please sign me up for 7B - I don't know what it will be though. I have no creativity for some reason when it comes to DHS. Will have to work on correcting that.

Come on, ladies, we're almost there! :banana::woohoo::yay::cheer2:

P.S. My belle for the princess group is the blue version, not the yellow. I hope that is OK for everyone. I've just always preferred the blue belle.

AlexWyattMommy
08-04-2009, 05:00 PM

tyniknate

I think I'll take Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage. I have the princess cart so that should help.
Thanks for the suggestions.

mla....where is Eagleville? I'm from Danville, which is near Williamsport, which is the home to the Little League World Series. :yay: I'm so excited there is another Pennsylvania gal on here. I was beginning to think I was the only PA scrapper.

mla1977
08-04-2009, 05:20 PM
I'm near King of Prussia. Apparently there is another Eagleville somewhere in central PA. I've met some other PA scrappers here. There are a lot from Delaware that I met at CKC this past weekend too.

Alright, I will do MuppetVision 3D for my Studios one then - I forgot that you can't take photos in the AIE attraction, and only people who actually perform in it will have any photos of them...

MuppetVision at least has the queue, holding area, key under the mat, etc. And the fountain outside.

Suddenly I'm hungry for jello. A lot of jello. I could even say.. A Net Full Of Jello....

Alrighty, I'll help fill this thing up. AWM, please put me in:

2B - can I do a general princess theme or would you rather I pick a specific princess?

5B - Norway

7B - I'm not sure what yet

8B - can I do just a wildlife or animals theme?

9 - Crystal Palace

If you want to add me to 10 to help fill it that's fine. I know ZTH hoped to keep it at 6 and I don't really need this one so I'm happy with not being in there but will do a spot if you need it!

:rotfl2::rotfl2: I just saw this. I stuck poor 123SA into the slots I could fill, but she really didn't want them all.
I will be happy to put you in the groups instead. I really didn't need the restaurant one. Thank you.

General themes are just fine, especially since you are filling in the spots for us. :thumbsup2

AlexWyattMommy
08-05-2009, 08:57 AM
Okay, we are closed.

Most groups are full. :cool1: Thank you so much everyone.

The ones that aren't full have the MAKE # next to the group title.

I will work on getting everyones groups next their name after lunch. And will have check in dates by then too.

This is going to be a great swap.

Just in case you are new with swapping with me, I prefer creativity over rigidness to the rules. I also allow the using up of your stash. Your items can have different paper or embellishments (different ribbon, charms, rub-ons, etc) as long as the quality of the work is equal among the sets.

DisneyIsTerrific
08-05-2009, 08:57 AM
I know I told you to stick me in whatever 2 spots when you closed, but I wasn't sure I'd be able to be online and when I saw all those groups almost full this morning I couldn't stand it and just had to put myself in more!!!:rotfl: But, this way I'll get more back and won't be as jealous of all the stuff I'm not getting!:thumbsup2

Ive never had the opportunity to do this before so I have a question on how this works.

I will be sending both the Holiday Full Page (2 groups) and this one (3 groups) together.
Do I need to seperate them in any particular way, send more money, etc.
How does this work or do you prefer I send 2 seperate boxes?
Thanks

123SA

Your pages groups will each be in 2-gallon baggies - 2 baggies for 2 groups.
You can put your 3 t'n't groups each in a one gallon bag and then put them in a 2-gallon bag. You will have 3 2-gallon baggies. You may put them all in one box. They should fit in a regular $10.35 box. If you are willing for both swaps to be complete, I can send them back in one box. You save yourself postage this way.

Group 5B is now full and will make 11 of each of their countries. I will send a PM to them to be sure they know.

I will also be sending out my info today. If you don't get it and need it, make sure you let me know. Only being able to send to 5 at a time messes me up sometimes.

I've been thinking of a topic for my Group 7B - DHS spot. If you don't mind that I'll be repeating a topic from the other DHS group, I'd like to do The Great Movie Ride. If you prefer I do something that hasn't been taken already in either group, then I'll do the Honey I Shrunk the Kids playground.

I'll switch my spot in the first DHS group from The Great Movie Ride to Backlot Tour - if that is okay - that way there won't be a duplicate. I can use what I was thinking about on either.

Are you sure? That's sweet of you to offer to change topics. :goodvibesI can do the Honey I Shrunk the Kids playground and I actually have pictures to use for it since I haven't scrapped the photos of DS in it when he was little. The Great Movie Ride is my favorite at DHS so that's why I wanted it. I have some ideas for either attraction, but no supplies purchased so it's fine either way. If you want to keep The Great Movie ride, then do so and I'll do the playground.

I promised MM2000 that I would show her my Test Track license plate topper, so here it is, not totally finished, along with my cute Drippy Goo photomat for Tom Sawyer Island (it's the whitewash fence!) and my Enchanted Tiki Room set. Sorry about the flocked parrots, I didn't know someone else had just done them for a different swap.... everyone will just have a lot of them, I guess.

Saw the new loopy ones and (I think) the snowflake ones at Mike's the other day. They're cute! Albeit a bit pricey...

I KNOW TinkerBean — remember, she's a foreigner from our "Friendly Neighbor to the North" — will love the Maple Leaf ones - and she has every Halloween scrappy item known to mankind, so she'll probably scoop up the cobwebby ones too...:lmao: So, I *could* borrow them!

My only problem was that with my picket fence, all the little bottom chopped-off pieces got stuck in the channel, so I had to pull them out with tweezers (which was easy once I realized why I couldn't slide the next piece of paper in). I don't think I would have the same problem with a photomat or anything else.

Test Track:

The photomat is black with lots of little .75x.75 inch yellow squares glued onto it. :faint:
Each topper has a different brad in place of the oranges on the real Florida license plate.
The ribbon is 12 inches, and I thought it looked like a road and was cute... do what you will with it. :)

Tom Sawyer Island:

I went over the fence in actual white paint, to give it some texture. It looks better now, I think. And I made the little paper-pieced brushes on the title and painted them too. I was trying to tie in with things in the book... I'm happy with this one.

The star isn't stuck down, I've included it with the bag to put where you want - it's stickled wood. I wanted to do a whole control panel of dew drops, but it ended up looking awful, so I went minimalist.

I'm trying to get one done a day... it's going well so far (and I bet I just jinxed myself)

So I don't want to bail on anyone because of poor planning on my part... especially because I'm not doing anything else too time-consuming for these two weeks, it helps pass the time.

Question: WHat color for the Morocco topper? Would gold on black work?

I would think gold on blue or gold on brown would look better. There's a picture of a sign on a building (not a great picture of the sign) at this link that shows the gold on brown. There's also lots of places in the Morocco pavilion that have lots of pretty blue and gold like in the 2nd link (large picture on right - the archway and fountain).

Prototype - 5B Epcot Countries - Germany

We loved the pretzels in Epcot Germany! So, that and my Mr. Potato Head WoD NYC mickey head pretzel piece were my inspiration for these designs. The large Mickey circle has a 4-inch opening and the two ears have 3-inch openings. These will only be attached to the black background in the center areas (at the top of the head and on the inside sides of the ears), so that photos can easily be slipped between the layers. Hope this makes sense and that you like it!
