Parks/Icons 2 inch Words 4 inch letters-COMPLETE

[JJ&JHsmom]

Information for the Parks/Icons Swap (Groups in the next post) I took most of this from last year's swap.
Sign ups will open on January 28, 2012 starting at 9am EST and will close on January 31. Due date is April 11. 2012.

Link to photos from last year's swap.

Newbies are welcome. If you haven't swapped with us on this board before, then I will limit you to 2 groups.

There are 2 different types of groups listed:
1.) The first set is for 2-inch embellished letters
2.) The second set is for 4-inch altered letters

Groups are listed in the next post.

After sign-ups, please pm me your name, DIS name, mailing address, email address and phone number when you sign up (I will only use these in an emergency).

Groups 1-22 are 2 inch letter groups: The letters each swapper will individually make can be combined to spell out the entire word on your scrapbook page. Make your specified letter(s) 2 inches tall with a shadow/mat behind it. Embellish your letter(s) at least once to go along with the theme of the title. You may use patterned paper or solid colored cardstock. Please be creative and use colors that represent your group selection.
***IMPORTANT NOTE*** For Longer titles, please TRY to choose a font that is NOT WIDE. The Mickey Font Cricut Cartridge is a wider font for example. Width is a tough one, because the fewer letters are in a word, the wider we can go. Make your individual letters with the assumption that the longer completed words would expand across a 2 page layout. Sometimes you end up with words on both the top and the bottom of a layout. Take the word "Frontierland" for example. That is 12 letters, in order to fit across a two-page layout, the letters need to be a smaller width than 2” (24”/12 letters minus a little so there can be a gap between letters when they are laid out). But with the words "Magic Kingdom", you could theoretically put “Magic” at the top of a layout, and "Kingdom" at the bottom, so you can go wider with your letters. Just be mindful of how the word will fit on a page. Basically, this means that not everyone can use a wide font like the Mickey font, with a large single word. Keep in mind also that we may need to overlap letters slightly for titles with even longer words like "Adventureland" (13 letters) so embellish them accordingly. Shorter words like "Africa" for example are not an issue--it's just the longer single words that get tricky. If you are unclear on this or have questions, please ask me.


Groups A-E are 4 inch altered letter groups: Make a 4 inch letter, matted, and embellished at least once. You may use patterned and solid colored paper. Please be creative. You are making the first letter of the word only. An example is: You are in Group C Epcot Countries and chose France. You will make a 4 inch F and when everyone gets it back they can add "rance" to it anyway they want or just use the "F" on their page to represent France.

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 and specialty paper (such as embossed, glitter, Bling).


Packaging:

For All 2 inch Letter Groups: Please put each letter into a tiny bag (ie small jewelry bag or snack bag) then put those bags into a QUART size bag. If you have 2 letters in the same group please put both letters into the same jewelry/snack bag then into a QUART size baggie.

For All 4 inch Letter Groups: Please put each letter in its own labeled baggie and put all the baggies into a QUART or GALLON size labeled baggie.

Label your bag with your DISname, name and group letter. Do not address your items to a particular swapper. (That makes it harder for me to sort!) Your label should look like this:

JJ&JHsmom
Cassandra Hanson
Group 1

Mailing:
* You may send to me, by any method you choose unless you are mailing after April 6. Then, you must mail Priority WITH Delivery Confirmation.
* I prefer to send to you using flat rate boxes/envelopes from the USPS. Please include enough postage in your package for return shipping. The rates are: Envelope $5.15, Small Box (9”x6”x2”) - $5.35, Medium/Standard box – $11.35, Large - $15.45.
* If you want your items shipped to you with DC, please include the $.75, and a filled out slip. I will not mail the items back with delivery confirmation unless you include the $.70 and the filled out DC form.
* Please include a label (can be the priority label completed with your info or a small address label) for me to use to return your items to you.
* DO NOT include click-it/ship-it postage. I will not be able to use it since it is only good on the day it was printed, and from the location it was printed.


Required check-ins will be:

February 7, confirm groups and pm me with your information
March 7 general update
March 23, last call for angels and mailing status update
April 6 mail by date

Due to me by April 11, 2012

I will pm you with a reminder if you forget to check in. After 48 hours with no response I will request angels for your spots. If you are going on vacation or will be out of town, please check in early. Please do not sign up for more than you can handle. If you need an angel, please ask for one as soon as possible.

I hope you have lots of fun in this swap!!

Does anyone have a link to last year's swap so I can see what all was used last time for embellies??? I'm trying to think up ideas & thought that might help all of the people who haven't done letter swaps before.

You can add me into Group 2A, Magic Kingdom-"G,N" and Group 13, Hollywood Studios-"Y,U".

Also, if no one else signs up for Groups 12, Spaceship Earth, and 19, Dinoland, it's ok to drop them. I won't mind. However, if the other person wants to do just the letters we've signed up for, I don't mind doing that either.

[morgansmom2000]

Cassey, I've got some time on my hands this week, are we using ONLY caps?

Yes, only CAPS.

Got you added to both groups. Question do you want 2 spots in Groups 2A and 13? Just want to make sure before I close this.

For those of you in Group 9 Storybook Circus:

Would you like me to cut the words down to just Storybook, I will make 3 letters, or would everyone want to make 4 letters each? Let me know, I am fine either way.

I still need spots filled if anyone would like to add a few groups. I am planning on closing sign-ups tomorrow at 4:30.

Thanks.

Cassey - I can take a spot in each of 5, 6 and 13 for you. Also...just a suggestion for groups 10 and 10a, if you want to add 2 icons to group 10 and move yourself and po3 up there, it would dtill only be 8 per person to make. Not a big deal since it's a one letter per person word. I would be willing to move from my letter to an icon. Anyway, whatever you decide...just offering it up! :thumbsup2

[ckmom97]

Cassey, I'll take a spot in groups:

10A, 12, 14, & 15A

Thanks

Group 5 - Adventureland,
Group 6 - Frontierland
Group 10A - Castle
Group 13 - Hollywood Studios?

Any letters are fine (not a letter and icon please as I can't produce it) S for Castle would be good.

Thanks

I just got back from Disney, so I didn't read through the entire thread, but can I sign up for Groups 10A and 12? any letters...and is there a reason why no one is in the 4in letters? I would do Group D if they will stick around...if not, no worries... :)

thanks!

Thanks for joining, got you added. There has not been much interest in the 4 inch letters, one other person expressed interest.

[MazdaUK]

Quick question - I will be using my Xyron, and I have two fonts - one with shadows (which is wide-ish) and one without (which is not all upper case, but is thinner). I can't remember off the top of my head which letters are capitals, but assuming the right letters are in caps, is it OK to mat onto a suitable sized shape (such as oval)? Or do I need to find an alternative?:confused3 I do now have a Big Shot :banana: but no fonts yet:sad2:

Thanks!

[morgansmom2000]

I'd be up for group D.

Mazda, we are using all capital letters for this swap. A suitable shape as a mat is fine.

Cassey

[JJ&JHsmom]

I'd be up for group D.

Let me know what you'd like.

Cassey

[JJ&JHsmom]

For Group D in the 4 inch letters, there are 4 spots, I may have enough interest to fill 3 and I am willing to take the 4th.

mm2000, lawannayeager, and Mickster, if you pick what you would like, I will update when I get home from work later today.

Jennifer, I may be adding you to up to 5 groups before I close this out, is that okay with you. I am thinking 5,7,12,14, and 18. Let me know.

Cassey

[Reddy]

I could do a few more if you need to fill up a spot - I need to make 3 sets of albums for the next trip so I could even be in a group I"m already in - Icons is fine with me

[scrappinstevie]

I can help fill in for groups:

9, 10A, 12, 15A

Those five are fine with me. Glad to help out.

[MazdaUK]

OK, I'll check my fonts tonight and see if I need new Big Shot fonts for my birthday:rolleyes1 I can probably work around it otherwise;) As long as the letters I need are all upper case (stupid artsy type fonts:headache:)

[Mickster]

I'd take the Sorcerer Hat in Group D...thanks! :smickey:

[kkbeaton2]

LaWanna (lwyeager) will take the Spaceship Earth in the 4" group D. Thanks!

[JJ&JHsmom]

mm2000, I added you to Groups 7, 14, 15A, 18, 19, ad D

Reddy, added you to Groups 5,7,12,and 2 spot in 19

Mickster, added you to Group D

Lwyeager, added you to Group D

Scrappinstevie, added you to 9, 10A, 12 and 15A

I still need to figure out Group 9, I think there are 3 open spots.

I am closing sign-ups.

Please everyone check your groups and let me know if I made any mistakes.

thanks Cassey....letters for me are really quick to cut and assemble, sometimes have issues with the embellies, but knew what I wanted to do for these right away so got them done first!

updated my group #9

great job on your first hostessing!

[MazdaUK]

My groups are good :goodvibes Just one small favour Cassey - can we swap letters for Frontierland? And can I swap with Reddy for Adventureland?

My thinner font is fine for F and D , and V and L,but not for my current letters:headache: If either of you has already started cutting then I'll browse for a Big Shot font, but I'd rather not invest at this stage having just paid for my vacation.

Thanks!

Lisa, I love your letters. If I may ask, what size did you cut your castle at because that looks like about the size I am looking to cut my embellies?

[ckmom97]

My groups look good, too. Sending my info now.

Not a requirement at all. If you want to post pictures and would like some help let us know. We will be happy to walk you through the steps.

I will be making a slideshow of the groups once I get everyone's packages.(If someone will help me with the instructions on how to create and post it.)

Oh my!!! Did you see Tim Holtz??

Yes I did see Tim Holtz...as always he was a cutie (to bad he swings the other way) and a wonderful crafter. His work is impressive. I was very lucky a couple of years ago I got to take a class from him. :woohoo:

[JJ&JHsmom]

Here are Cptjackandcrew's letters:

[JJ&JHsmom]

No problem, just had to figure out how. My new laptop and I are trying to figure each other out. Right now the laptop knows more about me than I do about it!:)

Cassey

very cute! and I get #1 and #2!!

[MazdaUK]

Love them!

The problem with my Xyron was the paper kept skidding around, so i changed the mat (which got me 3/4 of the way) then changed it again:headache: when it works I love it, but I find the mats don't last long enough so unless I'm doing something like this it does tend to sit out in the conservatory all unloved (as opposed to my Big Shot which is hidden in the conservatory as DH doesn't know I've got it :blush:)

Anyway, I did two groups!

Group 6
http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y243/MazdaUK/002-17.jpg

The mats are inked, F has a star brad and D has string tied round (I thought it was sort of appropriate:rolleyes1)

10A - couldn't get a good pic (thank heavens for digital!), the shadow is silver card, the letter lavender and I've put two flowers on as my original idea didn't work:headache: Still not sure if I should add anything - happy for suggestions!

when the glitter is dry - they should be all done
I forgot to note that on the last picture you only get one of the icons but I used 2 different papers

the circus one is getting extra stickers, frontierland is getting a lantern(too big for letter) & the Dinos are getting extra dinos from them misbehaving when cutting out, I ended up with way too many (so dino conteffii anyone??)

I don't think anything else got extras

[morgansmom2000]

Wow! Awesome work!

[mommy2mrb]

On the W, the letter does not sit flat, but will when glued to page. I did this to make the filmstrip "ripple" when the letter is adhered.

Hope you all like!

[mommy2mrb]

[morgansmom2000]

Cassey, I am done with all of my(20)groups. I have everything packaged up and ready to mail tomorrow. :cool1:

You are quick! I'll let you know when your package arrives.

The trick is to space things out so you don't feel so rushed! I have that many groups and have barely begun to plan. I have lots of ideas floating around in my head, but nothing designed just yet. Hopefully will get a few done this weekend.

Mailed this morning-postal worker said it should arrive Tuesday.

I usually have nothing going on but when I sign up for a swap it seems like other stuff always comes up. And the weather has been so nice all winter, I'd rather be out doing other things than holed up in my scrapbooking room.

Still waiting to here he made it back safely. I just hope that he will be able to make up the work he has and will be missing. i am resisting the urge to hop in the car and drive up there.

what groups? maybe we can help with some ideas

[rlovew]

Now that I am back in town I will be cutting and working on my groups. I have developed ideas but haven't moved into production yet.

[mybestieismickey]

Checking in. I have one group done and the others are all planned out.

[Sharli]

I have the letters cut & put together but I still have to attach my embellishment... actually, have to cut out a few more donald ducks on my cricut too...they ripped when I was taking them off the mat (too small & intricate on a brand new mat). Anyway, I should be done Sunday or Tuesday, my next days off.

[LaWannaYeager]

Checking in, I extended my stay in NC so will not be home until Monday.

[ckmom97]

I have finished three groups. I plan on finshing the last group next week while Jaci is in dance class.

[JJ&JHsmom]

what groups? maybe we can help with some ideas

S for Asia
I for Africa
and 4" T for tree of life

I think that all the worrying about Josh has sapped my creativity.:confused3

sorry you have to worry so much about him....is he feeling any better?

how about using an elephant for asia....a lion for africa...backing the T with the tree

[JJ&JHsmom]

He says he is feeling better, color is still off and he still has a hacking cough. We see his doctor tomorrow. Hopefully she will tell me to stop worrying.;)

I may use those ideas. I need to sit and play a bit, but with work, meetings, homework and worry, I am usually exhausted by 7:30 and just give up! Depending on how long tonight's meeting lasts, I may play a bit later.

Thanks for the ideas!

Here's Group 14 - Sorcerer Hat - R and Icon
http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/pp203/stampinupwithjennifer/3c3cfb06.jpg

I've got one Animal Kingdom set in the Cricut right now. Not sure how to embellish it!

[morgansmom2000]

Group 15 - Animal Kingdom - AD

Not sure how to embellish? Does the leaf cut count as an embellishment? I'm thinking I'll throw Mickey ears on the D.

http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/pp203/stampinupwithjennifer/5da92d80-1.jpg

Group 15A - Animal Kingdom - OL

Again, not sure how to embellish these?

http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/pp203/stampinupwithjennifer/fe0fdd35.jpg

Group 16 - Tree of Life - IE

Does the leaf count on the I? How to embellish the E?

http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/pp203/stampinupwithjennifer/bd7ee582.jpg

Thanks for any suggestions!

5 more groups to go, will probably finish on Tuesday.

[JJ&JHsmom]

I think the leaf on the letters count. I find AK the hardest letters to embellish! Grass, leaves, animal cut outs or stickers, paw prints, safari hat, tree cut out. Hope that helps.

Cassey

[morgansmom2000]

Great, thanks for the suggestions! Don't know why those are the hardest for me too!

[dacky041208]

I'm back stalking this thread again...:surfweb:

Jennifer, when it comes to embellishing, do you have flock? I really enjoy using flock on the animal prints! Perhaps black on all the black spots or something.

The letters do look great though!

[party of 3]

i :love: them all!!!
