CLOSED COMPLETE Disney Sketch Swap

[AlexWyattMommy]

Due Date: SEPT 15th

-You are allowed to rotate the sketch/map in any direction you want.
-Please try to stay as true to the sketch/map as possible.
~ Where it says DATE, leave it blank. Please be sure to use a paper that can be easily written on with a sharpie/gel/glaze pen.
-Please use a layer of cardstock as your base. You may completely cover it with thinner paper. It is very difficult to sort them when they bend and sometimes the embellishments get caught.
-Please use quality paper on your layouts. I will not limit your “name” brands, but please use good judgment. If the patterned paper doesn't have a name printed on it, don't use it.
-You are not required to double mat your elements or have to embellish the elements one/two way.
-You can add a mat layer to the photo placements if you like. You may adjust the size of the layers shown, just not how many
-You may use any kind of embellishment you like on these sketches where they are indicated or in place of a “layer” of paper. Ribbon and fiber are good substitutions for paper layers.
-You may use different embellishments and paper on each of your layouts. Please ensure they are of the same quality.
-Please use simple titles like - Disney, Mickey, Princess, Good Eats, etc. The less wording, the easier it is to use the sketches. You don't have to tell me the title ahead of time.
-You will not have to tell me your title selection. It will be the surprise element along with the colors.
-Please do not sign up for more than you can handle. But these should be easier than other page swaps as the placement is already decided for you.
-New to me swappers are limited to TWO groups.
-Please sign the back of your layout.
-Place each group in their own 2-gallon baggie and label the baggie with your real name, DISname and group information.
-Please send postage for a medium or large flat rate box. Do NOT use the Click-it postage from USPS. I cannot use it. It has to be used the day it was printed. Stamps, check or cash are acceptable. I will be using the on-line postage maker from USPS – it will be $10.20 for the medium box and $13.95 for the large box. This does include the DC already and if I have your email address, it will send the number and update you during delivery.
-Please include your address in the box so I can double check it with the information you will be PMing me after sign ups.
HAVE FUN WITH IT!

General Disney Colors - black, red, yellow, white

I know I shouldn't be signing up for another swap, but I can't help myself. This swap was so fun last time.

Here's what I'd like:

Sketch 5 - Mickey Mouse themed
A4 - Magic Kingdom
B2 - Animal Kingdom

[AlexWyattMommy]

:teeth: You will love these.

Thanks for playing!

[DisneyIsTerrific]

I'm sure I'll sign-up for more especially if you need help filling groups!:goodvibes

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Hey AWM!!! Got up late...was up late!!! :scared1::scared1: I hate getting up this late...feel like I've lost time.

Anyway, could I have:

Sketch 1 - general princess

Sketch 2 - Goofy

Sketch 4 - general Disney

B4 - I'd like to do DHS, but if you want to avoid a duplicate, I can pick another???

and A1 - Epcot

Thanks a bunch!!

I already bought the supplies for these yesterday while waiting for DS to get out of baseball practice (in anticipation)!!!! It was pretty easy since everything was laid out for you and everything was fairly general and open!! YAY!

[AlexWyattMommy]

With the world groups the sketches are different. I am okay with duplicate subject matter in the same group. If anyone doesn't want duplicates, please feel free to PM me. I can change it and open up new groups to take up the duplicates. I understand if anyone feels that way and am happy to do what I can for the best of the majority. :) I can also change my subject if needed.

[morgansmom2000]

Okay...

I'd like Sketch 1 - Fairies (I may stick with just Tink, is that okay?)
Sketch 5 - Fab Five
Sketch A3 - AK
Sketch B1 - MK

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Sounds good!!! I'm fine with it...I have plenty of pix!

Do you need my date for sketch 4? If so, I can do anything 2005, 2006, 2008 or 2009. And, I can wait to decide to see what the others in the group need.

[morgansmom2000]

Oh heck, throw me in for 4 for Princesses too.

[AlexWyattMommy]

Totally Tink is perfect. :thumbsup2

Will go put in your dates now LM3K. :thumbsup2

[AlexWyattMommy]

Update to here. :thumbsup2

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Can I also have sketch 5 - general Disney?

Thanks! I'm good now!

And, it looks like for the A's and B's we are getting 2 of each park anyway...just 2 Epcot in the A's and 2 DHS in the B's. But, DIT and MM flip flopped so it worked out perfect! :woohoo:

[morgansmom2000]

I'd like 2008 for my date. (I'm a poet and I didn't even know it).

[123SA]

Here is what is on my list, but I am not sure what is open

Sketch 1 Minnie
Stech 4 general
Grp A A4 DHS
Grp B B1 AK

[AlexWyattMommy]

Your groups were open. :thumbsup2

I was so worried when I didn't see you here earlier. :hug:

[morgansmom2000]

Question - Where it has a photo, but no mat, do I need to put a 4x6 piece of paper down to show where the photo goes? Or, I see you say something about adding a mat. Is that required?

Oh, and I am totally doing Totally Tink...I forgot I found Tink vellum for $.14 a sheet the other day!

A sheet of paper showing where the photo goes is required. It does not have to be a mat - 4-1/4 x 6-1/4. It can be ugly paper that is 4x6. Just something so the picture puter onner doesn't have to guess where they were supposed to go.

[123SA]

Just something so the picture puter onner doesn't have to guess where they were supposed to go.


so technical:rotfl2:

[AlexWyattMommy]

:rotfl2:

I gave my Mom some of the ones I did earlier when we started this kind of swapping. She doesn't scrap. She just puts pictures on the page. :rotfl2: I totally had her in mind when I typed that. :)

Gotcha...

Is that the technical term?

[AlexWyattMommy]

:teeth: Is now. :lmao:

[morgansmom2000]

:teeth: Is now. :lmao:

Excellent ;)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

LOL I LOVE the wording! I can't wait to get them back and be a puter onner!!!!

[icesk8abc]

May I join Group 5B - General Princess and Group A2 - sketch A1 - AK

[123SA]

I'll add 5b too. Can I go with Disney World, general colors?

[AlexWyattMommy]

I have you both added.

Thank you for playing. :cloud9:

[AlexWyattMommy]

Because this is a not as popular swap, I will not keep it open as long as other swaps.

I will close this out Sunday Morning. I will keep open groups of two or more, combining as I can without doubling up on swappers.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Can I have B2 - MK? That should definitely be it then!

[AlexWyattMommy]

:teeth: Yes you can.

I remember when I first started swapping. :cloud9: It was so hard to not sign up for everything. Thankfully I'm a SAHM and finding time to do them all wasn't difficult. I got back such amazing work that it was totally worth the late nights. :love:

Course, I don't use any of them. :rotfl2: I'm just a hoarder of swap items. I take them out and ooh and aah over them. :)

[AlexWyattMommy]

After looking more at Sketch #2, I see that it may be intimidating to make that open rectangle. I am going to take that one and use a ribbon to make the shape. Using a solid or one that has the same print on both sides should work just fine. :thumbsup2 If I find one the right width of my tape runner, I think it will go quickly.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Thanks!!! I know...I can't help myself! I want all of the things I see in all of the swaps!!! So, I seem to keep signing up...:confused3

I am also a SAHM and have lots of time to work...I'm fortunate I guess! So, yep, it makes those late nights worth it all when I get to look at all of the fun stuff I get back!

As for the using vs. hoarding: I ONLY hoard scrap supplies! I really try to scrap but spend too much time admiring everything!! :rotfl2: I also think it is a bit of "if I use it, then I won't have it to use in the future!!" :scared1: I think I may use these a little faster though...since they are ready-made!!! That's what I'm hoping at least!

Now...just need to find someone to join my sketch 2 group so it doesn't get cancelled out!!!!! :rolleyes1 I really like what I have come up with for it already!

LOL we were posting at the same time...and I was planning on using ribbon for that one! Great minds think alike!

[morgansmom2000]

I'm trying not to be piggish and join them all. Part of me thinks "well, I'll probably have to use the large box anyway..." Then the other part pipes up and says, "enough!" It's hard to have two people talking in my head at once. :rotfl:

[AlexWyattMommy]

:rotfl2:
I figure I'm going to fill in any group I'm not already in. :thumbsup2

[DisneyIsTerrific]

I'll take a spot in Sketch 2 with a General Disney theme.

AWM, when you go to close this out, you can stick me in groups that need filling. I know I'll wish I was in them anyway!:goodvibes

[tyniknate]

I know I'll end up regretting this when I see the pages posted, but I think I'll watch this one. I'm still way too intimidated by what I'm seeing on the thread. I've never done a whole page for someone else before. Elements is one thing, but what if everyone hates the choices made for the page? Maybe I'll post a couple pages I've made on a new thread. If no one minds, would you all take a look at them and see if I'm qualified to be joining this kind of swap?

You will do fine with this swap. The same rule applies here as in the element swaps. If you create something that you would use in your book, then it's fine for the swap! The sketches can look intimidating, but they aren't bad at all and it's fun to get the different takes on them and different looks that you wouldn't create yourself from that swap.

Ditto what DIT said. If you are proud of it and would use it, then it is good for my book.

I have two spots open. If you want to take them and then send me photos of your work early, I promise to be fair and critical at the same time. :hug:

[AlexWyattMommy]

Not sure if anyone noticed our newest addition to the list. But that sweetheart PrincessNancy96 signed up while she is currently at WDW. She wanted to help fill in some spots. Free texting is a wonderful invention. :)

This makes just a few spots left.

[tyniknate]

I think I'll wait. There's only one single-page group left and that's what I'm used to scrapping. I don't do two-page layouts in my own books very often and I'm just afraid I wouldn't be happy with the results (I tend to over-obsess about pages). Doesn't seem very economical to send just one group. Thanks for the offer, though. Maybe I'll be able to join in the next page swap. I'll be watching all of your work, and wishing I had joined. ;)

[AlexWyattMommy]

Are you sure? I have not started any of mine. I would be more than happy to give you my spot in a sketch group you like.

[tyniknate]

Only if you are really, really sure you don't mind my hijacking one of your groups. This is your swap, after all.

[AlexWyattMommy]

:flower3: Of course I don't mind. I don't offer if I'm not willing to deliver. :thumbsup2

Just pick. :)

[tyniknate]

OK, you've twisted my arm. Now I just hope that I'm able to deliver worthy pages. (I will be taking you up on the open and honest criticism.) Could I do the open group A2 - layout A3 with Magic Kingdom; and group B1 - layout B3 with EPCOT?
Thanks to you all. Now, I can use any paper but need to follow the layout pattern. Is that all there is to it? I will, of course, follow all the swap rules :).
Anything else I need to know?

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Ann, I'll take the spot in the 2 page group. I'll let you know my theme once I figure it out!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Yes, you can have those groups. I'll go fix the OP in a minute.

The only things to remember are to use quality paper, check you already do that.
Use the sketch as a guideline.
You can use pattern or solids interchangeably with these. The sketch uses them to differentiate between the layers. You can use what you like. :thumbsup2


DIT-will go put you in too. :)

[tyniknate]

Does "use quality paper, check you already do that" mean I'm OK with the paper I've been using in previous swaps, or that I should check because I haven't. Sorry, I'ts been a long day.

:banana: My first page swap :banana:

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

AWM - I got a bit of inspiration from sketch 3...I'd like to do it in Mickey theme if you are interested. I know you gave up a spot, so thought I'd see...and DIT said she'd take more...and maybe someone else wants something. Anyway, if you want...I would like to do it and REALLY make it my last. If not, I will be using the sketch and making the page for my book anyway!! LOL

I actually started cutting for these pages tonight at DS's baseball practice!

And, glad to see PN96 joining in! Hope you are enjoying the world!

:banana: My first page swap :banana:

:rotfl2:

It means I haven't seen you use not nice paper. Your choices have been good.

I actually don't see that very often, the not as nice paper. And I think it has been a more of a learning curve when I did see it. I am guilty of not knowing any better when I first started. :wave: I haven't been able to throw it away, but I don't use it. :rotfl:

Welcome to your first complete page swap!! :cheer2:

Of course it is okay. I am keeping this open until Sunday.

Who can't always use another Mickey page? :confused3 He is top mouse for a reason. :thumbsup2 Other than safari photos, most of mine have him in there somewhere. :rotfl2:

[tyniknate]

AWM, I wish we lived just a little bit closer. I think you and I would make quite the pair! We probably wouldn't be allowed in public together. :lmao:

[AlexWyattMommy]

Nope, being in public together would be a fineable offense for sure. :rotfl2:

I really do wish air travel didn't cost so much. It would be so awesome to get together and just hang out.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Of course it is okay. I am keeping this open until Sunday.

LOL Ok!!! I am excited about that more than any other now!!! It's kind of funny because at first that was the only sketch I didn't have any inspiration for!!

Another question....when there is an addition for "date" do we have to fill it in, or can we leave it blank? Or, should we ask the others in the group so we can try to do something that works for everyone? I don't want to put a certain year on and the recipients not be able to use it. :confused3

Now, I have to start packing up my swap supplies for the weekend at the in-laws!! We leave after DS's baseball game Saturday. They live by the beach...which is great during the day. But, at night, I need busy work!!! :thumbsup2

[AlexWyattMommy]

You know what, I think we should just ignore that. I started out thinking we could ask each other and put them in and then I realized what a nightmare that could be when I start to swap out. I would be sick to my stomach for a fortnight if I sent someone the wrong date.

And there is more than one sketch with it.

So ignore the date. Just be sure to use a pattern or solid that is easy to write on with either a sharpie type pen or gel/glaze pen. I'll go put that in the instructions. Thanks. :flower3:

Gotcha!!!! It would be quite a bit of extra work for you in the end!! (Unless everyone was there in the same year??)

[tyniknate]

Well, if you ever decide you need a road trip you can come here. I work for a judge and with all the local police departments. I'll just put them on alert for the time you're visiting. :rotfl:

[DisneyIsTerrific]

I'll take a spot in Sketch 3 and I'll do Minnie Mouse.

For my spot in 5B (I think that's what it is???) - the 2 page layout, can I do a general Disney theme even though 123SA is doing Disney World? Or, would you prefer I pick something else?

I'm guessing that Susan had more of all the parks feeling for her layout. But even if she didn't, yes, two general Disney themes would be fine. What are the chances that you both would use the same paper and embellishments? I'm guessing pretty slim.

I need to go fix the OP. It didn't take the first time.

[rlovew]

I will take a spot in group 3- I don't have any idea what the theme will be yet- I will check my paper and decide (although I may go shopping if I don't see anything I want or that inspires me).

I would also love a spot in group 4 or 5 if you have people to join them. If not then I will just stick with group 3.

Hi!
I would like to join this swap. I am new, so I understand I can only do 2 layouts. I only see one open...I would like to do Sketch 3 with a FAiries/Tink Theme. Is that okay? Let me know!

Thank you!

I had a player PM me to join. I opened up a new group 3.

There is also room in group 4 if you wanted your second group.

Happy to have new players. :) :cheer2:

I will be asking everyone to send me their DISname, real name, mailing address, email address and a contact phone number. If this is not something anyone is comfortable with, please let me know and I will open back up your spots.

[tyniknate]

I'd like a spot in group 3B - Fab 5 if it's ok. I know I've not done a page swap before, but I've certainly done enough other swaps with you all. Am I still considered a newbie? I'm headed to the store today with my character swap supply list; epcot supply list and with this one. Then, off to my sister's house for the rest of the day to scrap! :banana:

[AlexWyattMommy]

:rotfl2::lmao::rotfl2:


Uhm, no.


You not allowed to be a newbie anymore.


I will be happy to add you to the group. :)

[Teacher03]

I'm a newbie, but I would like a spot in 4B or 4A if it is available. I would like to do an Animal Kingdom theme.

[AlexWyattMommy]

I'm a newbie, but I would like a spot in 4B or 4A if it is available. I would like to do an Animal Kingdom theme.

I would love to see you play. :)

For groups 1 - 5 the theme choices are: General Disney colors, Princess-general or character specific, and Fab Five, all or one.

I'm afraid AK would be outside that choice. I could open up another Sketch A or Sketch B group and see if that fills up. Did you have a sketch in one of those groups you liked?

[AlexWyattMommy]

Awesome!

No apologies needed. :hug: The sign up process is confusing and I've done it lots. :)

Looking forward to see all the new expressions of creativity. :cloud9:

[tyniknate]

AWM - you crack me up! My kids are wondering why I'm giggling at the computer. As spoken by my 5-yr old "Nick, I think mom's gone over the edge."

I'm so happy to see so many new players! New people to scraplift from :lmao:.
Welcome to you all. WARNING: These swaps are more addicting than chocolate.

[AlexWyattMommy]

Have you looked over the edge?


That is where all the chocolate is stored. :thumbsup2

[tyniknate]

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

LOL You guys are too funny!!! I too am laughing at the computer!!!

1. Danielle - you were quickly sucked into this one!!! You went from nope...not doing to...ok, maybe one...to yep, I'm in!!!!! in no time!!! Yay!!

2. Haven't we all been living on the edge for some time...we have kids and husbands and animals...that makes us a little crazy, right??!!

3. AWM - If ot's true about the chocolate, I'm jumping...and swimming (with my mouth open)!!!!!! :lmao:

But, really.....so funny!

And, have fun scrapping today Danielle!!!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Woohoo!!! I see my friend from the Cape finally came out of hiding!!! Jen (MadilynnsMomma) is joining in and hopefully getting hooked!!!! We met on here and in Disney last December on our family vacas!!!

:hug: Welcome Jen!!!

And, welcome to all the other new swappers!! I was just the newbie not long ago (I'm still a freshman) and you will all become hooked and love all of these girls on here! Everyone is so nice and helpful!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Oh how cool. She is family already. :)

[morgansmom2000]

I'll take that spot in 3B :)

Rebecca -- you have my group 5 spot. I already have plenty of groups.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Cape Cod Cape?

Yeppers!!! We met on here last year because we were going to Disney at the same tinme then met up at the WDW!! But, yeah...she lives on the Cape...one of my favorite places in the world!!!

[AlexWyattMommy]

I have put MorgansMom in group 3B and rlovew in group 5.

As of right now all the current groups are full.

If there is more interest in a certain sketch, I will be happy to open up a new group for it.

[morgansmom2000]

I'm about 40 minutes from the bridge. DH and I spent a night there for our anniversary in May. I love the Cape :)

I have put MorgansMom in group 3B and rlovew in group 5.

I'll get back to you on the topic once I get to Jo's tonight or tomorrow, okay?

[AlexWyattMommy]

::yes::

And for what is it worth,:hug: I don't think you are a circle snob. ;) Somebody needs more fiber in their diet. Or less. Running at the mouth like that on the other thread really isn't very nice. And since they said they were spouting off and not saying anything more, there wasn't any point in trying to get them to see the error of their ways.

I freely admit to being a Bazzill Snob, but I'm not a Circle Snob :lmao:

[AlexWyattMommy]

:love: I love Bazzill. And if I didn't need my teeth getting fixed, my DH would have totally bought me the membership. :teeth: I've got much better things to do than read way more into a club than it warrants.

Smack-Dab in the middle, Hyannis.

Yeppers!!! We met on here last year because we were going to Disney at the same tinme then met up at the WDW!! But, yeah...she lives on the Cape...one of my favorite places in the world!!!

I will gladly do a house swap with you from Memorial Day to Labor Day, the rest of the year, I too love the Cape :goodvibes

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I'm about 40 minutes from the bridge. DH and I spent a night there for our anniversary in May. I love the Cape :)




Lol My anniversary is in May also and my DH and I used to go up there every year for our anniversary!!! That's funny! Sadly, our last trip up there was over July 4th...7 years ago!!! We only had 2 kids and they were both pretty small. So, I am hoping for a weekend getaway next month!!!! Fingers crossed! I texted Jen this morning to get the scoop on the scrapbooking store in Hyannis!! LOL Even on vacation I am on the lookout for supplies!

[morgansmom2000]

Welcome, Jen! I'm just up the road from you a piece :)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I too am a Bazzill snob...more specific - Bazzill textured!!! There are many times tat I won't buy a color because it is smooth. LOL It's just one of my quirks I guess!!!

Glad you are joining and I'm going to work on you to join more!!!!

Um....it's not so great here in the summer, either. You know...the beautiful Pocono Mts.!!!!!! But, our season extends into the fall...with the leaves...then winter for skiing. But, Spring is pretty tourist-free!!! And, for the record, Justin and I decided if we moved anywhere other than Florida, it would be the Cape or R.I.

Well, it made me :mad: so I responded to it even though I know I shouldn't have. Jen, I'm in the circle too, and I'm no snob either!

Anyway, welcome to all the newbies!!!!:wave2: It's great to have you in this swap!!!!!!

You probably won't have to twist my arm too hard to get me join more :)

Maybe we'll have to make a trip down in the spring :) But, tell Justin if he moves to the Cape or Rhode Island he has to leave his love for the YUCKY YANKEES in Pennsylvania! :laughing:

[MadilynnsMomma]

Welcome, Jen! I'm just up the road from you a piece :)

Any "local" scrapbooking hide outs I should know about? I pretty much stick to AC Moore and JoAnns, with the occasional trip to Colorful Creations here in Hyannis.

(I did just find some cute paper stacks by DCWV at TJMaxx priced at like $5 - I would have paid $20 retail :thumbsup2)

Minnie would be better as she is part of the Fab Five that everyone was expecting when they signed up. Thank you for asking. :flower3:

[LoriABil]

I had a player PM me to join. I opened up a new group 3.

There is also room in group 4 if you wanted your second group.

Happy to have new players. :) :cheer2:

I will be asking everyone to send me their DISname, real name, mailing address, email address and a contact phone number. If this is not something anyone is comfortable with, please let me know and I will open back up your spots.

Thanks! I will pm you the info later. I am having trouble with it tonight, but will try again tomorrow. I would love to take the extra spot in 4B, or if it's taken, I would take ANY spot. Those layouts are all so cool! I will check and see what's open tomorrow if 4B isn't open!
I'm glad I found thus group! You all seem so fun. Well, for a bunch of words and smilies, anyway! :)
I'm already taking inventory and am ready to shop for supplies-as if I need an excuse!
Thanks and I will be glad to send all the info.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

For my sketch 4, could you please change me to Pluto? I just realized as I looked over my sketches that I was doing something very similar to what I am doing for one of my MAW pages. So, I want to try not to duplicate too close.

Have you ever been to Right at Home? It's in North Attleboro. Great store. I used to work there. Haven't been in a while, I left on a sour note, but they have an incredible selection. It would be a bit of a trek, but really worth it!

[morgansmom2000]

Minnie would be better as she is part of the Fab Five that everyone was expecting when they signed up. Thank you for asking. :flower3:

No problem. I'll do Miss Minnie.

[morgansmom2000]

But we :love: you anyway!!!!!!:rotfl:

Warts and snobbery and all! :laughing:

[AlexWyattMommy]

Just clarify for those who weren't in the last sketch swap I had.
Where there is a border or a shape, you should use a border or a shape. However, they don't have to be the same as what is shown. If the sketch has the bumps; you can use torn, wave, zig zag, waterfall, etc. If the shape is that bracket box {I don't know what it is called} you can use whatever your Cricut or cutter system makes. You do not have to go buy something that makes the same one. Even stars, hearts or Mickey heads would be okay with me. If the sketch shows scroll work going down the middle, you can use the lace felt, bling sticker things, Primas or any other shape there.

As long as I can say, yes, what you made can be seen in the sketch, I'm good. Play around with it. Stick straight to the letter of sketch. It is your choice. Just have fun. No stressing is allowed. I promise I will help in anyway you need.

[LoriABil]

You read my mind! I thought about Pluto, too! Suddenly, he is DS's favorite!

Do you think Pluto and MIckey (I'm thinking like, Best Pals, or something similar) is too specific? I would like to do that for Sketch 4B. If it's too specific, I will do just Mickey.

Also, as far as embellishments are concerned, are we trying to keep everything 2D, or is it OK to do 3D type things? I just wanted to make sure before I got too far into the design. And thank you for that post, AlexWyattMommy! I was beginning to stress a tiny bit...

Character combos are good. I believe there are character meals with both Pluto and Mickey and you can always use one photo of each on the layout. I will put you down for Best Pals.

3-D is good. As long as it will fit in a page protector with minimal cutting out of plastic.

[mbfqueen]

I have looked all over .. perhaps missed it .. but what size are these? Some look 8.5x11, some 8x8, some 12x12 lol ... please unconfuse me!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Sorry. They are all 12x12. The different sizes in the pictures is due to the website I borrowed them from. They were not a uniform size there.

[mbfqueen]

Is there ANYthing open?!

[AlexWyattMommy]

I can open up a new Group for Sketch 1. Is that one you would be interested in?

[mbfqueen]

I like:
B2
A4
A1
Sketch 1

I was taking my time looking and deciding cause I thot this open til tomorrow, next I look they're all FULL lol .. guess I snooze, I loose!

Any group you can give me, gracias!

[AlexWyattMommy]

I've opened up Sketch 1. I think it will fill more quickly than the parks one will.

I just need a theme. :thumbsup2

[mbfqueen]

Okie dokie, sounds good!

Any chance anymore general spots could open?

I'll do General Disney for Sketch 1B and would appreciate it if you could open more =]

[AlexWyattMommy]

I don't think anymore folks will join us. :sad:

I will open up another general group - any particular Sketch 2-5 you like?

[mbfqueen]

Oooh goodie!

Ok, I'd like Sketch 2! (Princesses)

If you need angels .. let me know! I usually like to get the most I can for my s/h monies, again thanks! Great sketch choices!

[wdwmickey]

AWM--when I looked this morning I didn't see any openings. Is there anything left? If so I'd love to join.

ETA: I just looked at page 1 again and if they are still available I would like:

Sketch 1B--Princesses

Sketch 2B--Disney general

Thanks, Cheryl

[rlovew]

Ann opened up a couple of groups for someone who wanted to join- so those groups are open for you too.

Rebecca

[DisneyIsTerrific]

AWM, I'll take a spot in 1b and 2b. For 2b, I'll do Mickey. I haven't decided for 1b yet. If someone else wants to sign-up and needs those spot, you can give them to them. :goodvibes

[morgansmom2000]

You can toss me in group 2 to finish it out, if you need to. I'll get back to you on a topic ;)

I bought the paper for all my other groups yesterday. I'm probably going to get started on Tuesday. Supposed to be stupid hot here. I'd rather stay inside and play with paper :)

[AlexWyattMommy]

I :love: you all!!

I will go update the OP and with a quick check I think we full and call this sign up complete and ready to be a progress thread.

There will be check in dates. I will not require prototypes. I will require a photo of the work accomplished or supplies bought at the two week before mailing date. Angels need to be asked for before that date. And groups not complete will be swapped out amongst them to try to keep from getting duplicates back. These are generic enough that you should be able to use them.

I am so excited about the new swappers. I am so excited about our rare swappers and even more excited that the old hats are here too. I'm expecting to see a wide range of creativity. :cloud9:

My info will be sent out this afternoon.

[morgansmom2000]

My groups look good. I don't need your info and I assume you don't need mine ;)

[123SA]

I am listed in group 5A, but I am not in that group (unless you need me to be there:thumbsup2)

[AlexWyattMommy]

My groups look good. I don't need your info and I assume you don't need mine ;)

We are good. :thumbsup2

Not sure why I put you there. :rotfl2: But if you decide you really want another group, you just let me know. ;)

Thanks for checking my work. :)

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Oh wow! For a swap I wasn't even going to do, I signed up for a lot of groups!!!!!:rotfl: My groups look good. You should already have my info, but if you need it let me know and I'll send it on!:thumbsup2

[rlovew]

We are good. :thumbsup2



Not sure why I put you there. :rotfl2: But if you decide you really want another group, you just let me know. ;)

Thanks for checking my work. :)

She probably put your there because you were orginally in group 5B but gave up the spot so sweetly for me.

Rebecca

[rlovew]

My groups look great!

Thanks,

Rebecca

[wdwmickey]

My groups are good. I'll be sending a pm shortly :)

[PrincessNancy96]

I think my groups are right.. do I need to declare anything? My mind is still mush...so hold my hand and tell me what to do next! LOL

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Hi!!! Greetings from the shore!!! My groups look good. Do you need my address? I wasn't sure if you still had it from the Topper & Tag swap?? Let me know...I'll be home tomorrow!!!!

[AlexWyattMommy]

My groups look great!

Thanks,

Rebecca

I still need your themes for your groups.

I think my groups are right.. do I need to declare anything? My mind is still mush...so hold my hand and tell me what to do next! LOL

Nope, you already picked your themes. All you need to do is pick your paper and embellishments.

Hi!!! Greetings from the shore!!! My groups look good. Do you need my address? I wasn't sure if you still had it from the Topper & Tag swap?? Let me know...I'll be home tomorrow!!!!

I have you in my rolodex now. We are good.

[PrincessNancy96]

Crush, you mean you aren't doing that for me? You mean I have to shop? What the heck... LOL

Now to figure that out... at least the sketches are done for me!

[MadilynnsMomma]

Sent you my info! Now time to... envision... :rolleyes:

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I have you in my rolodex now. We are good.

Perfect!!!:thumbsup2

[morgansmom2000]

Oh, Ann, can you PM or email me your cell number? I lost all my numbers in the great potty fiasco of 2010...and I wanted to text you the other day :)

[AlexWyattMommy]

Crush, you mean you aren't doing that for me? You mean I have to shop? What the heck... LOL

Now to figure that out... at least the sketches are done for me!

We could always go shopping together.

[AlexWyattMommy]

Oh, Ann, can you PM or email me your cell number? I lost all my numbers in the great potty fiasco of 2010...and I wanted to text you the other day :)

:thumbsup2 Just did. :)

[morgansmom2000]

:thumbsup2 Just did. :)

Thank you!

[mbfqueen]

My groups look awesome!

OH and messaging you my info!

[icesk8abc]

My groups are correct. :goodvibes

I apologize if this has already been explained and I missed it. For the parks groups are we supposed to just use the initials of the park as the title or the whole park name?

[AlexWyattMommy]

I used the initials because it was just easier to type during the sign ups. :)


You are free to use whatever title you would like as long as it obvious what park you are doing your layout. Jungle Fever, Wild Things, Animal Kingdom are all acceptable. I can't think of anything off the top of my head for the other parks, but you get the idea.

[mbfqueen]

Not sure if you got it or not .. but in 1b - I'll do General Disney and in 2b - General Princesses

Thanks!

[LoriABil]

My groups look great! Thanks!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Not sure if you got it or not .. but in 1b - I'll do General Disney and in 2b - General Princesses

Thanks!

Sorry about not fixing it sooner. :flower3:

My groups look great! Thanks!

Awesome!

[AlexWyattMommy]

I have everyone's contact information now. :thumbsup2

Just need tyniknate to check her groups, but I know she is buckling down to finish some other swaps first. Would someone else please check my work?

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I have everyone's contact information now. :thumbsup2

I checked it over and it looks like you hit it right on the nose!!! I was thinking I was her buddy on this one for sign-ups (that's why I went ahead to check), but it was Character and Epcot!!! :rotfl2: We've been busy on here lately!!!!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Thanks LM3K. :thumbsup2

I already have her addy, so I can go mark her as such now. :)

[PrincessNancy96]

AWM, I have checked and doubled checked thru the whole thread..everything is correct and current and all changes were made!!!! :)

Sorry it took me longer than I anticipated, I had to take DS14 to soccer conditioning!

[AlexWyattMommy]

In this heat? Man your guy is going to be a limp noodle when he gets done.

Thanks for double checking everything. :flower3:

[PrincessNancy96]

Yes, they are having 2 a days... unless the heat index hits 106 he won't cancel practice. :( I however will NOT force him to go..if he says NO than NO it is..afterall, it's just conditioning not official practices. C is NOT one that will push himself too far.. if he feels the least bit funny he'll not do any more! We had it out w/ a coach for pushing him too far one year... needless to say that coach still does NOT speak to me and that is great by me!!!! I don't think they expected the little 5'2" mom to go off on him like I did!

[wdwmickey]

Here is my prototype for sketch 2B. Is this the right idea? Nothing is attatched yet. I'm planning on using black brads to attatch the red sparkle paper to the yellow cardstock. I am looking for comments as I have never done a page swap before. Thanks, Cheryl :)

http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1782.jpg

[AlexWyattMommy]

The polka dot paper is supposed to be open in the middle so you can see the black Mickey head paper through it. But if everyone else in the group is okay with the solid piece, it is okay with me.

For the black Mickey head, I would add a few more of them in that area. The lined paper for the journaling spot is good. Other options are stamped or drawn lines, journal box rub-ons or stickers, journaling cards that your can buy and journaling paper.

I like the sparkle paper lots. The choices for paper are spot on. :thumbsup2

[wdwmickey]

I was planning on adding anothe mickey punch or 2 (different styles) maybe. I'll definately spice up that corner. And I can totally cut out the inside of the polka dot rectangle-no problem. I just wanted to make sure I was on the right track ;)

ETA: Would a paper piecing work in that area next to the journal box?

[AlexWyattMommy]

::yes:: You are definitely on the right track! :thumbsup2

[wdwmickey]

How about this one?

I realize the cuts on the polka dot rectangle are not perfect--I'll make sure the ones I send out are cut more precisely ;) It also wouldn't be a problem to make the "journal/title" paper a bit longer to go completely behind the castle. Opinions anyone?

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Great page!!!!!:thumbsup2

[rlovew]

It looks great! I am not in your group to give an opinion on the longer paper but I can see where it might look better that way.

Rebecca

[morgansmom2000]

I'm in that group. I like the Mickey heads more than the castle, personally, but I think it needs a few more. Oh, make them look like balloons? Shoot, I should have saved that idea for myself!

I like both options for the embellishing. Which every way you go will look nice.


For the "open" rectangle, I think cutting a sheet of the Mickey head paper to layer on top of the polka dot will give it the same effect without all the special cutting techniques. [for those of us cutting challenged :wave: ] Not sure why I didn't think of that sooner. If my ribbon idea doesn't work, I'm going to do that. :)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I love it!!! I don't think I am in that group, but really wish I was!!!! The paper choices are super! I have seen the red glitter paper. But, the white glitter paper with the stars....WHERE IS IT FROM????? I neeeeeed that!!! I have such poor selection locally for supplies. Please disclose!!! :rotfl2:

[rlovew]

I went to the store yesterday to find paper and there was nothing- I will try another one Sunday. I did however find the perfect embelishments to do fairies- general for group 3B.

Rebecca

[wdwmickey]

I'm glad y'all like it. I'm don't know how to get the multi-quote feature to work so here goes.

Morgansmom--I tried more Mickeys and didn't like them. I thought about balloons but don't know how to cut them. Then I realiized the DIT is making a Mickey page for that group so I tried a different direction :)

LOVEMY3KIDDOS--the white glitter with stars is part of a sticker border sheet made by Reminisce it coordinates with all their new Disney paper line. I found it at Archiver's (I know you really wanted to know) ;)

AWM--cutting another rectangle would be much easier!! I'll do that with the ones for the swap. I bought ribbon for that spot, but, I didn't like it against the red paper.

[morgansmom2000]

I haven't picked my topic for that group yet...Is Balloons too narrow?

[AlexWyattMommy]

Disney colors with balloons for accents/main theme? As long as there are Disney colors, balloons sound fun.

ETA- I have the blue paper with the Mickey Head balloons on it. The balloons are in Disney colors, so that paper would work.

[LoriABil]

Just clarify for those who weren't in the last sketch swap I had.
Where there is a border or a shape, you should use a border or a shape. However, they don't have to be the same as what is shown. If the sketch has the bumps; you can use torn, wave, zig zag, waterfall, etc. If the shape is that bracket box {I don't know what it is called} you can use whatever your Cricut or cutter system makes. You do not have to go buy something that makes the same one. Even stars, hearts or Mickey heads would be okay with me. If the sketch shows scroll work going down the middle, you can use the lace felt, bling sticker things, Primas or any other shape there.

As long as I can say, yes, what you made can be seen in the sketch, I'm good. Play around with it. Stick straight to the letter of sketch. It is your choice. Just have fun. No stressing is allowed. I promise I will help in anyway you need.

Sorry if this has been asked, but by bumps, do you mean the long black "Scalloped" looking stuff, Like in Sketch 3 and 4, or do you mean the larger bumps like in 4? I guess I thought the scallops were a border, but now I am second guessing. Thanks!

[AlexWyattMommy]

The scallops are a border, but you can use any border there. You are not limited to the "shape" used on the border. The scallops or bumpy border can be turned into a torn, zig zag, waterfall or lacy border if you want.

[wdwmickey]

I haven't picked my topic for that group yet...Is Balloons too narrow?

I :lovestruc that idea :) I also made one more different embellishment, I like the colors on this one better, but, I like the idea of the castle. I'm sorry to be such a pain:eek: I just want to make sure everyone in the group likes the page. I promise not to be so needy on sketch 1B :goodvibes

http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1784.jpg

I will chalk the pixie dust circle so it will stand out more. Also, I would be happy to send both the castle and the Mickey inside the pixie dust so each person can choose. What do y'all think?

[LoriABil]

Oh, I see! Thanks!

[AlexWyattMommy]

I think I like this embellishment the best. With it being the same colors that are already found on the page, it actually stands out more.

Because it is just the one embellishment, giving the swappers a choice would be okay. If was a row or string of embellishments, that wouldn't be good. We don't want to do to much work the page to make it usable for the swapper.

Wishing I was in that group.

Don't be afraid of being needy. Questions are good. :thumbsup2

[wdwmickey]

It's my favorite too! I like that it is the same color scheme as the rest of the page. DD wants me to make one for her too :) Unless anyone objects I think I'll go with the Mickey & pixie dust embellishment :)

[AlexWyattMommy]

I am right there with your DD. Is there a group of mine that has a layout you would like to trade for?

[wdwmickey]

Ooooh--can we do that? If so I'd love your Disney fireworks layout:banana:

[AlexWyattMommy]

Archiver's. I have 3 sheets of it. Do you want to use it?

[morgansmom2000]

Sure! I can probably get away with 2 sheets if you cut them into 6x12 (easier to mail). I could use it as the "plaid" on the sketch.

[AlexWyattMommy]

:thumbsup2 Mail it out Monday. :)

[morgansmom2000]

:thumbsup2 Mail it out Monday. :)

Thanks, chica!

[wdwmickey]

Jennifer I also have 2 sheets you could have. Just FYI-I started with a 6 x 10 for the "plaid" but, ended up liking 7 x 10 better :)

[PrincessNancy96]

Love the LO.. I like the mickey head and pixie dust but have NO clue if I am in that group..too much stress w/ completing 4-H projects/books..... ERGH! My kids are so unlike me..they procrastinate... not me.. I'm a git'r'done and don't stress type of girl..

Anyway, I have a question... we can do 4x6 photos or do we have to do what is sketched on the page photo sizing-wise?? I was just gonna attach a post it note if I changed the photo size from like 3.5 x 5 to 4 x 6.... let me know... I want to try getting my Disney one done this week... I think I have a disney one...
I know I have Donald and Epcot....cause Epcot is giving me grief.. no inspiration for that design yet.... Donald have an idea but can't ever remember the sketch when I go to the store... LOL I remotely remembered the Disney one so think I have it covered...

So anyway, just answer my question found again in Red since I babbled!

[DisneyIsTerrific]

I :lovestruc that idea :) http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1784.jpg



I really liked the one with the castle and didn't think you needed to change it, but now that you've posted this one, I take it back! The Mickey and pixie dust circle just pop out. Looks great! This one is my favorite!:thumbsup2

They do need to stay the size in the layout. Making them larger will take away the effect of the behind paper.

I am in groups that have the 4x6 photos for the layouts. Do you want to trade me? I'm cool with that. :thumbsup2

[morgansmom2000]

Jennifer I also have 2 sheets you could have. Just FYI-I started with a 6 x 10 for the "plaid" but, ended up liking 7 x 10 better :)

Thanks for the tip. I may end up adding a border if it's too small ;)

[MadilynnsMomma]

Just saw today that a Michael's is being put up in Hyannis!!! Good for my scrapping, not so good for my wallet! :cool1:

Nope, that's okay.. I just like to do 4x6 better....but I can work with the other just as easy.... no problem....

[123SA]

Sorry if this question is a repeat

For sketch 1: Can I use a patterned paper as the 12x12? the 5x12 strip will be patterned also and everything else solid colors. I haven't started yet and the 12x12 printed may not even look right. I just didn't want to travel down this path before I asked. If the 12x12 is not heavy enough, I will mount it on heavier cardstock.


I have my papers pulled for 2 groups and I am working on getting the other 2 groups pulled.

Thanks!

Pattern or solid on the sketch is just to show layers. You can use which ever you want in its place. :thumbsup2

[rlovew]

For groups 4 and 5 can I do a general Disney theme even though there is already one in each of those groups. I bought my paper today but I can choose a character instead of using the general colors if I need to do so.

Group 3 I posted before I was doing a general fairies theme but I think you may have missed it.

Rebecca

[AlexWyattMommy]

Sorry about Group 3, I totally missed it.

More than one general theme in a group is fine. I just don't want to duplicate characters.

[123SA]

Thanks! I have papers planned for all 4 groups now. I just want to get my last ABC page planned and supplies pulled so I can place one order for supplies. Then I will get to work on this. (Hopefully tonight!)

[icesk8abc]

This is my first sketch swap and I want to make sure that I am on the right track. This is the 2 page layout for Princess - General.

A few things:
*Nothing is glued down, so it is all a bit crooked
*The background cardstock is not the actual one I will use (I know they don't match each other). All of the light pink papers will match. I just finished my niece's baby book and have pretty much exhausted my pink supply.
*The portraits will be 3 different princesses and the actual silhouettes will all be the same color. I couldn't decide which one I liked and didn't want to cut them all until I had.
*The white paper is the exact size the photos will be.
*My scrap desk is a mess. :sad2: Sorry.

http://i970.photobucket.com/albums/ae188/icesk8abc/IMG_4131-1.jpg

So...am I headed in the right direction? Which portrait colors do you like best - black, background paper color, bottom layer of the frame color, or some other color? What else do I need? :confused:

Thanks for you help! :flower3:

[AlexWyattMommy]

I like the colors on the right silhouette best.

It looks great!! You are totally on the right track. :thumbsup2

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I'm not in that group, but I agree the one on the right...the colors seem to "pop" more!!!! Nice page overall!!!!

[morgansmom2000]

Wow! I love that! I too like the right silhouette.

[wdwmickey]

Beautiful!! I like the silhouette on the right too :)

ETA: I'm only in a couple groups, so I'm sure there'll be lots of layouts that I like--may I scraplift?

[AlexWyattMommy]

::yes:: Scraplifting is strongly encouraged. :)

[icesk8abc]

Thanks everyone. :goodvibes That was the silhouette I was leaning toward. Of course scraplifting is always allowed! Since this is a sketch swap, we are all scraplifting in a way. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

[morgansmom2000]

I'm sad I'm not in that group, but now I'm completely using the same look for my Fab 5 set ;)

[wdwmickey]

Thanks everyone. :goodvibes That was the silhouette I was leaning toward. Of course scraplifting is always allowed! Since this is a sketch swap, we are all scraplifting in a way. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I never thought of it that way, however, even looking at a sketch I have trouble choosing paper. :goodvibes

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Icesk8abc, that's a pretty layout! I love the colors. I wonder if I get that one.... I better go check!!!!

I checked the list and I get it!!!!!!!:yay:

[123SA]

Lovely Icesk8abc!


I need some title help. I have Animal Kingdom for sketch B1. I measured it out and the title space is approximately 1.5 height by 2.75 width. I am not going to fit the words Animal Kingdom in that space unless I use a super tiny font size.

Any suggestions?


OT: I have measured out pages B1, A4, sketch 1 and sketch 4. Let me know if you need the measurements for any of these.

[morgansmom2000]

How about "Go Wild!"

I'd love the measurements for B1, 1 and 4!

[AlexWyattMommy]

If you could post the measurements here, that would be awesome!!


Wild

AK

HOT! {it's always hot there lol}

Meow/Growl/Roar

Oh! I thought I had to use Animal Kingdom as the title. Clearly I need to read directions a little better:rotfl2: Thanks!

[123SA]

Here are the measurements - -you'll have to round as you see fit.

Sketch B1

the light layer with the journaling: 8.54 (H)x6.72(V)
the next layer -- the top of the T in title touches it: 7.8(H) x 8.72 (V)
the dark layer -- 6.55(H) x 10.55 (V)

the flower diamter is 2"

the word title is 2.72 (H) x 1.45 (V)


Sketch A4

the journal layer is 9.5 x 9
the dark layer is 9.5 x 11
the circle diamter is about 1"
the word title: 4 x 7/8

sketch 1
the printed layer is 5x12
the journal layer 7 1/4 x 3 3/4
the scallop diameter(from one scallop to the next) is 1 5/8, radius is 1.25(from scallop to printed paper)

sketch 4
printed paper 5.8 x 12
solid 6.2 x 12
I'll have to add the rest of this later. I didn't write it down.



Please let me know if you have something different.

[PrincessNancy96]

Bless your heart Susan... with all the kids' activities going on right now.. you are my SAVIOR!! Thank you so much for sharing these measurements.. my mind is currently mush.. it's a combo of returning from vacation, 4-H projects due in 1 day for consumer clothing judging/4 days for project check in/5 days for rabbit check in, just under 4 weeks till school starts... my list are never ending (worse than normal)...this takes a lot of stress out of the way...

:thanks: :thanks: :thanks:

ETA: I may or may not be in those groups..but it's great to have the measurements for scraplifting!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Thanks so much Susan!!!!!!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Thank you Susan. :cloud9:

I am going to add it to the second post so it easier to find later on.

[wdwmickey]

Susan-that is so helpful. Thanks :) Does anyone want the measuements that I used for sketch 2 (they may not be exactly correct to the sketch-I just did what looked correct to me) :)

[AlexWyattMommy]

::yes::

I can add those to the post.

[wdwmickey]

Here you go

Sketch 2:

Plaid layer: 7 x 10
Dots: 3 x 11--inner box cut at 1/2 inch on all sides
Title box: 3.5 x 9.5
Ribbon: 4.5 inches
Tiny print layer: 11.5 square

[icesk8abc]

Does anyone in my group mind if I use Nahtazu for my AK title? It was the park's tag line when it first opened. I'll use "Wild!" if Nahtazu is too random.

[AlexWyattMommy]

Does it have a meaning? Could you fit the meaning somewhere on the layout?

[icesk8abc]

Nahtazu = Not a Zoo. Disney made the "word" up to describe the park. I'll keep thinking on it.

[AlexWyattMommy]

:rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2:

I didn't even think to try saying out loud.

I :love: it. I'm in the group. I say go for it. :thumbsup2

[PrincessNancy96]

Blonde moment AWM?? Even "I" knew that one!!!! :lmao: :rotfl:

[AlexWyattMommy]

:blush:

I swear, I didn't even "read" it my head. Just kinda looked at it and thought, hmm, I wonder what it means. :rotfl2:

[AlexWyattMommy]

It reminds of the Hippo Birdie Two Ewe. :rotfl:

[PrincessNancy96]

LOL!!!

I hear ya!! Sometimes it's those long drives up to Lexington that lets you mind wonder just a wee bit too long, huh?

[icesk8abc]

:rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2:

I didn't even think to try saying out loud.

I :love: it. I'm in the group. I say go for it. :thumbsup2

Thanks! I hadn't thought of it in forever until I was trying to explain Animal Kingdom to my niece and nephew who are going with us in October for their first trip. I thought that it would work for this since there are so many pictures and places in AK that prove it is "Nahtazu".

[AlexWyattMommy]

In the pouring rain. With lots of 18 wheeler kicking up spray. Between the bad words in my head and prayers on my lips, my brain is kinda fried.

[morgansmom2000]

This is my very very rough start for Group 1A. Nothing is stuck down and I need to find some silver thread and embellish, but what do you think so far?

(Sorry for the crappy picture, it's gemstones paper).

http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/pp203/stampinupwithjennifer/DSC_0140.jpg

[icesk8abc]

Beautiful! :thumbsup2 That Gemstones paper is perfect for Tink. I can't wait to see it when it is done! I definitely feel a scraplift coming on.

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

Jennifer- My mom (wdwmickey) and I love this:lovestruc question: What punch did you use to make it look like torn notebook paper?:goodvibes

[morgansmom2000]

Thanks! It is pretty in person, but that paper just does not photograph well.

The punch is this one (http://www.eksuccess.com/products_detail.php?product_id=10843&sess_id=fe59d4c31753de51b26fc27fcf837812). I'm glad to finally use it :lmao:

[morgansmom2000]

Oh, my DH is so smart sometimes. He suggested making the little tag into a bag of pixie dust. Does anyone mind if I do that? I'll either make it look like a baggie and glitter it, or make a little organza bag and put some glitter in it.

[AlexWyattMommy]

Love layout and love both ideas for the Pixie Dust! :love:

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Jennifer - I love it!!! And, I think I get it!!! The paper is perfect :thumbsup2 and so is the punch and the pixie dust bag idea!!!!

[PrincessNancy96]

Jennifer, love it all...and isn't it great when DH get bright ideas! :)

Thank you too for the reminder about the punch.. I need to go snag one of those bad boys/girls tomorrow.... I told DD I was looking for a punch the other day but couldn't describe it to find it.. I was drawing a blank... ERGH!

[123SA]

Love the Tink page! The pixie dust bag idea is brilliant!

[123SA]

[123SA]

Thanks for the compliments!

Here is group A.


http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg72/susanbillings/004-17.jpg

I realize I didn't put in any journaling lines. Do they need to be there?

[icesk8abc]

Susan - Both those pages are great!

I love your DHS letters!

Here is my AK layout for group A

The title and Mickey aren't glued yet, so they are a bit crooked.

I used a shade of blue that I have a somehow have 21 pages of as the picture place holders, so I put down the pictures since the blue looks pretty weird with the rest of it.

http://i970.photobucket.com/albums/ae188/icesk8abc/IMG_4135.jpg

[wdwmickey]

123SA & icesk8abc these are both really nice :cheer2:

[AlexWyattMommy]

:rotfl: About the blue. I'm pretty sure my place holders won't match either.


I think you should probably draw the lines Susan. I don't think a stamp will work well on that texture.

[AlexWyattMommy]

Very nice layouts! :cloud9:

[morgansmom2000]

http://i970.photobucket.com/albums/ae188/icesk8abc/IMG_4135.jpg

:lmao: I bought the EXACT same paper for my AK set! I had that and the elephants in my hands and went with the giraffes because the brown was easier to match!

Susan, as always your work is fantastic!

I didn't put any journaling lines on mine, should I? To be honest, I'd rather not...I'm worried about messing them up :scared1:

[DisneyIsTerrific]

MM, 123SA, and Icesk8abc, your pages are great!!!!! I better get busy working on mine. Y'all are leaving me in the dust!:goodvibes

[AlexWyattMommy]

::yes:: I realize it is a pain to draw or stamp or use prelined paper or shape, but we do need to have a journaling spot that is defined. The Mickey head is defined enough. It doesn't need lines. In the sketches where the journaling is indicated with just lines on one of the layers, you can add another layer of paper to be the journaling spot. If it is an extra layer on top of the sketch, that does not need to have lines drawn. Otherwise, drawing or stamping is the way to go.

Love the Nahtazau layout. :love:

[morgansmom2000]

Okay, I'll see what I can do. I don't think stamping on that paper will work, even with Staz-on. Maybe I can find some lined paper.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

These are all great!!!!

[PrincessNancy96]

Those all look great...
I have papers pulled for one group.... (Disney General).. however, I need the punch Jennifer told us about..

I need to pull papers for Donald & Epcot today... I'm thinking silver/purple/black for Epcot.... I don't want to define by "country" colors...but I don't want to define in "futuristic" too much either... so I'm thinking the silver/purple/black will be best....
Donald... I just need to find the right papers..

Also, AWM, making one more clarification.. We can rotate the sketch... so in sketch 2 instead of being horizontal photos... I can make them vertical photos by flipping the whole sketch to where the title runs at the bottom of the pages or top thus leaving all other elements/measurements exactly as the original... depending which I like better... correct???

[AlexWyattMommy]

::yes:: Rotating the sketch is encouraged if it will help you achieve your ideas. :thumbsup2

[PrincessNancy96]

Ok, just making sure....
So IF I decided to avoid making lines and instead add another layer for the journaling spot or autograph that is okay???

I'm searching for blue and white polka dot paper (5) sheets if anyone find some.. preferrably a small polka dot but not too tiny... and not the mega dots... (blue of donald)... if anyone could help in this venture.. 5 stores and NADA here... although I did get a cuttlebug 50% off at J's... I did have to debate a bit but I won! :)

[icesk8abc]

:lmao: I bought the EXACT same paper for my AK set! I had that and the elephants in my hands and went with the giraffes because the brown was easier to match!



:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I did the same thing except my other paper had monkeys! It will be cool to see your page with the same paper since we are using different sketches.

Yes - extra layer, no lines needed.

I will look, but nothing like that caught my eye at Archiver's today.

[PrincessNancy96]
