Autograph page designs- all pages restored 8/7/10

[FairyAuntMother]

I'm constantly amazed by the talent here! These pages are incredible!

I really love these. I think I will print a few for our books.
Did you make something special for the cover.
I have 6x8 spiral books I plan to use for a family autograph book and and trying to come up with something for covers. Last time it was easy since each boy told me what they wanted, but this time we decided to just do on ebook for all of them (but I am making 2 in case we get lots of autographs )

 

[J&HMom]

These are great! The best I've found so far. I'm getting ready for our trip in December and can't wait to put my kids autograph books together. Can't wait for more. Thanks for sharing!

Not yet...But I plan to. Last time I just used 6x6 photo albums. This time I plan on having the pages spiral bound, so I do need to come up with something. I'll post them when I do.

I added a few more this morning. Not sure If I'll get any more done today because I have to go to work this evening.

Thank you all so much for your compliments. It means so much to me that other people are enjoying what I'm having so much fun making.

Thank you so much for all the work you do. I am planning to make an album for my great nephew to take in December.

This is exactly what I was looking while planning our first trip in 4 years for our daughters, 9 and 7 (we have been stationed in Okinawa, Japan). I was trying to think of how to make a functional book, yet special with great pictures. What is the best way to print these off onto cardstock paper so that I can have them bound?

I am so happy that I found this thread! Thank you so much for allowing us access to your hard work!

We took pages not bound with us on our last trip. We kept them in a zip-lock to not get wet and just thumbed trough them to find who we needed. We also took a clipboard with us for the characters to use. It worked great. If you would like to have them bound later you could or I am putting ours in 8x8 scrapbooks with the pics of us with them on the oppisite page. I just printed them out on my inkjet printer on cardstock.

When you print them off and cut them out, just leave yourself about a 1/4 to 1/2 margin on the side you want to have it bound. I use the blank back side of the page as a place to put a picture of the kids with the character (ie the back side of mickey is twhere I put the picture of the kids with minnie, which is directly next to the minnie page (Does this make any sense??)

The other thin to do is what the PP said and print them out and keep them loose and use a clipboard (which is what we did last time).

Glad you like them! We should have more up tomorrow. My daughter has been working on the step-mother and step-sisters today..

Heather,

Thank you so much for the 4x6 cards. You are absolutely amazing and so talented! Our book will be beautiful! I'll keep checking back for new items!

Hi Heather,

I just wanted to tell you how talented you and your daughter are. The autograph pages are excellent. I definitely am going to use them when we go to WDW next June.

I only did one today, but I couldn't hold on to it until I finished more. I just HAD to post it! I did Fairy Godmother and it turned out better than I hoped. I think it's my favorite so far (although Prince Charming and Jasmine are pretty close).

The first time I did these, I used the same borders for all of the Cinderella ones (The same frame on Cinerella's page now) But this time I wanted to try to do them all different..I'm so glad I did. I've also learned a few new tricks in PhotoImpact and that's helped too (and sped up the process a bit)

Thank you again for the compliments. It tuly makes my day to see that you are enjoying these pages.

Suzy, Perla, and Mowgli (I saw another thread that says he's been out lately), King Louie and Baloo from The Jungle Book are next, and I should have them up on Monday..I don't know if the mice are still out and about since they're no longer at 1900 Park Fare , but I'll put them up just in case. If anybody has seen them in the parks, please let me know.

These are great designs. I'm going to have to find some time to come up with some of my own to share.

 

[FairyAuntMother]

I can't wait to see the new ones!

Your autograph pages are so good!

Can I ask a really DUMB question about the autograph pages people design?
I notice everyone tends to put the name of the character on the page. Why would that be necessary when the character is going to sign the name? I'm guessing its in case the character's signature is bad?

Anyway - I'm hoping to use some of your pages for our next trip. We have a big one planned and I'm going to try to make an autograph book for all the kids and there will be A LOT of them.

Thanks again for sharing.

Funny you should ask this. Just yesterday I was thinking that some people may not want the name on the paper and I was going to ask. It won't take much to make them without. Just let me know.

That is a good question, it actually stumped me for a minute. To be totally honest, I haven't a clue except that I just don't know everybody's name and instead of trying to remember, I can just flip to the book and see. Especially, the lesser know characters or sisters that I can't remember which one is which. Instead of doing some with names and some without, I thought I'd make them all the same.

I also think that when we were first doing them, I asked my family which looked better with or without and they all voted with.

Heather,

Do you have one place (website, etc.) where all of the pages are located and that you update when you make new ones? My thanks again to you and your daughter! We will be going on Dec. 9 and I'm so excited to start putting books together to surprise my daughters!

 

[Carmen]

Heather,

I'm sure I've seen the mice, and we go almost every year. (You're talking about the Cinderella mice, right?). Also, will you be doing Shanti for Jungle Book? Thanks!

Carmen...

Here's another possibly dumb question: Since there are so many characters, aside from the obvious ones (some of which I don't even know their names), would it be wise to just maybe design some pretty blank pages for those characters that we might encounter and don't have one of your gorgeous designated page for? For example, I recently saw that big tiger/lion from Robin Hood (I think)....

 

[Carmen]

Heather,

I have one more question, how can I continue changing the square ones to 4x6, so that you don't have to redo all of them. I'm trying to make a 4x6 of Ariel, Rafiki, Gephetto and Kim Possible, but I'm not sure how to. I don't want you to waste your time resizing each one.

Right now, I just update this thread, I don't have a website. All of the designs are in the first 2 posts of this thread. The 4x6 pages are on page 3. When I make a new page, I just put it in both of those threads. I'll probably start working on a webpage when I get a few more done. It would probably be easier to update them all and have them in one area...Like all the different verions of each page..I just don't even know where to start to do a webpage.

They are all on photobucket though...Maybe I could post the link to that.

We saw the mice (Yes, from Cinderella) at 1900 Park Fare, but I know they're not there anymore. The Stepsisters are there now. I just wasn't sure the mice were in the parks. thanks for letting me know you saw them there.

That's a good idea to have some decorated blank pages. Last time I just put about 10 blank sheets in the back of the book, but I bet it would be nicer with at least some sort of a border on it. I'll add that to my list. Any particular ones? Maybe ones that match the pages...then they could do double duty...pages for pictures to match up with the autograph pages, or autograph pages for missing characters....So many possibilities.

Is Shanti meeting too? I hadn't heard that. That would be cool! Eventually, I would love to have a page for each character that ever possibly goes out so that everyone can print out all of them or just the ones they're interested in. I never designed any of the playhouse disney caracters because my kids weren't into them, but I know other kids are, so I have thoe on my list to get to.

I'll apologize in advance if it takes us a bit to do these, we homeschool and I work in the evenings, plus the youngest three are in gymnastics and the older DD does soccer and just as it sounds, our schedule is rather hectic..Speaking of which, I better go get ready for work.

My first attempt at some 4 x 6 autograph pages. They took me forever, but I finally finished them. The hardest part was getting a frame I liked. For the Figment one, I finally just "settled" for a frame.
I checked with Heather to get her approval to post them on her site as I didn't want it to appear I was "infringing"

If someone wants the "ufo" file to make changes, email me and I will send it. I am working on Jiminy Cricket now but haven't found a back ground I like.
