ABC 8x8 Prototypes

[123SA]

Whew -- I have a lot to catch up on.

TinkerBean -- awesome pages! I eapecially love souvenears - -the shopping bags are great!

jennyL -- another yes vote for the buttons. I like the dichotomy of the night and day pages too

Hope -- great job -- I'm all for pages with patterened paper as it is something I am not good at

Sharon -- Great job on the cover pages! I like the W pages too, but as AWM mentioned, it is short a photomat

Michellepooh -- great colors and papers. Best Day -- that's a cicrle in the paptterned paper right? I bet that looks neat when the pages are pushed together. The chef hat -- is that from the Pooh cart?

Mickster -- I really like that paper too. I like the cut out letters -- having done 2 complete sets with cut out letters -- it is a whole lot of work though. The Walt Script on the topper is perfect for your pages.

Kat -- I like the colors and mixture of patterns. I like the way you did Queue. As mentioned, another mat on the T pages is needed. For the R page, it is fine as is, but if you want to drop the Relaxtion part that is fine -- should save you some space and time! For teh Fast pass page -- I like the vellum pocket. What about adding bling or skittles to just the red dots on the patterened paper?

I did some updating last night and I'll do more now. Have you watched the entire slideshow? This is one incredible project! I am so glad that you all trusted me with this. This is really showcasing our collective talents. Thanks for your painstaking attention to detail, creativity and efforts on this project.

I agree! I just watched the slide shows (now that they are more complete) and they look great!

On a side note...I don't think that I'll be changing my Once Upon a Time to Alice and the White Rabbit. Sorry. I just don't have the time, patience or money.

Make sure you document your idea though, so you can use for another swap.

The slideshows and prototype and progress threads have been updated. Please let me know if there are any changes I need to make. Next check in is July 16.

I have a big favor to ask -- the photos are rather time consuming for hostesses. If you make changes to your pages, I'd really appreciate it if you would re-post a photo so that I get the final product in the slideshow. I don't mean small changes like embellishment placement. Just the big ones like finalized topper or additional element. I am hoping to avoid taking photos when I go to swap this out -- I think that will be difficult enough without adding photos to the job! Thanks again for your cooperation.

Kat, I hope your just 'tweaking' them. I love the 'trash talk' title. I don't have any trash can pictures, but I have plenty of picts of my Ds's that can go on that page! I love the paper you used for the Rest pages, love pink.
The Queue page, I love the title, I tried something similiar and couldn't figure it out. You did it beautifully. The fast pass is my fav. I have not mastered the art of vellum........I love the pocket!

Can I ask a ?????? Why do y'all have extra fast passes? We use ours.

We stick our tickets in to get extras (aka "Not a valid fastpasses") just for scrapping purposes - helps us remember what we used fastpasses for and what we stood in line for.

 

[New England Eeyore]

I know, we use 99% of our fastpasses too. On some trips, they're like gold!

I do have some extras from when we've gotten them "just in case" and then the standby line was so short it didn't matter. Mainly those FP's burn a hole in my pocket to be used!

Kat, I happen to love the pages you made. i love the fast past page, and i love the trash talk one, and i love how you did the Q one with the rest of the word on the bottom of the Q!! just my input. i really love that vellum fast past holder.

If you put your key to world back in the machine, it will spit out a "not valid" fast pass, but it will have the cool logo from each ride at top. There is no way I would volunteer to give up a fast pass even for a scrapbook page.

I will be re doing all of my layouts. I will post new completed pages as soon as I can.

The only one that needs to be redone is the one missing a photomat.

Everything else is style related. And like I said before, I will defend anyone's right to their own style. If we were going to make all the pages look every other page, what is the point? As long as your style meets the guidelines, it's all good.

I never would have thought of swinging mats like that. I've done swinging tags on the paperbag books, but not mats. Is it going to be a bit more difficult to pick the right pictures, maybe. Is it my first choice, no. But it is your style, you own it and make it fierce!

I think a good half of these pages are going to be interactive. What is the best way to display this book? I was going to just use page protectors, but that might be a hassel because I know will want to play with the moving parts.

Ok I revamped my TRASH page and here is what I got. now I am super excited how this turned out so this is my final draft. Keep in mind it is a rough draft and I will tweak as needed but the general idea is staying the same. DH helped create the Trash can so it would look like one found in the parks so we took a Tag cut from George and snipped off the top. Then cut another one up to add the dimensions. Thank you Hope for the suggestions I love how it looks now.

I stayed with my Title because I like it. I do believe all requirements are now fulfilled with these pages.

THAT IS SO STINKIN' CUTE!

just had to yell that. I really like your trash can journal box. He totally ties the whole layout together.

 

[KatDisney]

YAY!!! thanks! I am super excited about it. I do have to get clear corner stickers though to keep the can closed. White is all I have at the moment.

 

[hopemax]

I love it!

 

[party of 3]

Kat, that page is great! Wonderful idea of the trash can opening!!!!!
