I have all my Pooh pages done - just need to adhere them to the albums. Then M&F are about maybe a third of the way done - still have a good amount of work to do on those. This will be my priority for next week.

 

[Downrivermama]

Checking in. Still working!

 

[Mickster]

My in laws are still here so I'm going to try to get Mickey and Friends done tonight. Then I just have summer to go!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

I have my Mickey & Friends pages and inserts done.. They are in a baggie.. awaiting to be adhered to the book pages.. I need to stop by the LSS and get the cover paper I found... and get those done on Monday..

While I'm there I'll grab some more paper for my Epcot bags... I'm making 8 in total.. 3 for the swap... and 1 gift(AWM). and 4 for me... LOL

I hope to have them done in the next 2 weeks...

 

[Mickster]

Mickey and his Friends are in their books and are done! Phew. The first one took the longest and the last one only took about 45 minutes to assemble. Not bad. I'm really tired though.

Here's a problem, though for you. I just reread the original directions (yeah, I was procrastinating...) Anyway, I saw how we're supposed to have spine. I didn't use one. Is that a problem?

I'll post pictures - see below.

I also forgot to add that each page has 2 removable tags that are embellished as well as a big tag for each character.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

They look very nice!! I'm not in your group, so I can't comment about spine or lack of. Is the Goofy page really upside down in your book or is that just the photo? Because it would sooo funny if it really was.

 

[Mickster]

No Goofy isn't upside down in the book. That would have been funny. It was almost 1 am when I uploading the pictures. I guess I was tired. I'll probably add the spine if I can figure out a way to do it without having to take the ribbon out. Thanks!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

I like them Mickster.. Don't worry about the spine... I think they look great..
Make mine look very sad..

 

[nicurn]

got sidetracked by our jail adventure, have some cute pictures from that to scrap... dropping dd off today (really thought it was yesterday) and after the jail page is done, back to the paper bags. maggie

ps: mickster, your book is really cute!

 

[YodasMom]

I love your book, Mickster!!

 

[Mickster]

Thanks guys. It is pretty simple, but every character has 3 tags and 2 pockets.

 

[Downrivermama]

Hi Guys I still working. I really should make major progress this week. I've been in the process of selling my dad's house and I close tonight! So no more luging boxes and lawn mowing!

I'm going to get my stuff together so I can work on them durning my lunch hour this week.

 

[maria34a]

Mickster, your book is really cute! I wouldn't worry about the spine, because the ribbon is so thick that it hides the paperbag! You really did a great job on this project! Love it!!! I really like all the pocket pages everyone is making, I think I will have to incoorporate some of those in my books as well! They are really cute!

 

[Mickster]

Great! Thanks!

I also wanted to post that I got my summer books done too. I was at the shore for a few days, brought my stuff and was totally inspired! I just have a few more tags to make, but they are done! I'm going to try to mail them tomorrow, but if not, certainly on Monday!

 

[PrincessNancy96]
