COMPLETE ABC Letter/Elements Swap

[wdwmickey]

Ann--after thinking on this and praying about it. I would like to drop out of the general colors swap. I don't want you to have to send 13 PMs and I don't want 13 people to have to change their plans based on what I thought I read in the directions. I don't want anyone on this board to think I am "high maintenance" or a "drama queen" (I'm really not either, I promise )

So if it's okay with you please take my name off group A, but, keep me on groups B & C.

Thanks, Cheryl

PS--sorry for any trouble I may have caused

I have taken you out of Group A.

I really do think that using the selected colors only for the solid layers will make it uniform enough that a few letters that may have a different color in a pattern paper won't be glaringly odd. It would all still flow nicely once letters and journaling are added.

Since I had already given the go ahead to use a different color pattern paper with the selected color solid paper, I don't know that I can say don't use it anymore.

Thank you for understanding. And I do understand why you are dropping this group. There are no hard feelings.

Ann ~ the open spots in group A.. save for SIOH right now... I know she was interested in it...and things happened at work and she wasn't able to get on here.... let me text her this morning... if not, put me in there!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I did send a PM to icesk8abc, as she expressed disappointment also at missing the sign ups.

I will let her have first refusal. If she doesn't want it, the spots are SIOH.

Thanks for looking out for SIOH.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

OK, I will wait to say anything to SIOH as I don't want to upset her... thanks anyway...

 

[wdwmickey]

Thanks Ann Also, if anyone could please look at MusicalDisneyDreams "O" elements, post 217 and give her some feedback that would be awesome. She would like to work on it after school if the prototype is okay

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Here's my prototype for my One Man's Dream set:

The O has a ring of embossed pixie dust, which is inked/chalked. The photo mat has a white rhinestone Mickey head where the two sections of ribbon cross (and, yes, you can get a pic under and on to the mat). Mickey's hat is inked/chalked so it's darker than his face.

I went with blue, black, and white for my color scheme for a few reasons. The floor of OMD looks like the shiny blue paper and my ribbon, and the walls are blue. Mickey's supposed to be Steamboat Willie.

What do you think? Is this okay?

Sorry, my response didn't get saved.

I love the Steamboat Willie. I already have a photo that work so well this grouping.

It all looks great!!

 

[Ohana 4]

Me too. Love Steamboat Willie. I say "Go forth and scrap."

 

[wdwmickey]

Thanks ladies

 

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

I love these! And you did a great job with the embossed pixie dust -- I bought it at Big Lots and was trying to figure out a good way to use it.

Thanks! If I have time after school, I'll start reproducing it.

Man, I feel like a slacker. My groups look good and I'm PMing my info now, but the groups already posted look awesome. Guess I better get to work.

 

[mommy2mrb]

I love what you ladies have made so far!!!

got my Group A J's, R's done, everything else is cut out , some is matted and embleshed, need to get some more glue dots and I should finish up thoes groups today.

I will try to post pic when I'm done with them.

think I've got the rest of my groups figured out, but will see after I get things cut.

You took the words right out of my mouth! I feel like a slacker too! I just went to Michaels to get some supplies for this swap. $50 later, I am digging into my creative soul to come up with something worthy of what I have seen from you ladies so far! I'm determined to meet this challenge in the next three days I have off.

 

[wdwmickey]

Don't feel like slackers!! We went shopping on Saturday and Rachel was so excited to get started that she went to work as soon as we put our supplies away We usually work on swap stuff together so I can assist if she gets stuck. So she's working diligently on this swap, but, she has yet to start the dining swap

 

[Ohana 4]

Ok, I've cut my T and the shadow, but I don't know what to add to it for embellishment. It's red and black, so none of the inks I have would show up well. I thought about hanging something off the top cross of the T, but all I can think of is a Mickey-yellow star or maybe a Mickey head? I'd love to do a paper piecing of Mickey leaning against the T, but there's no way I can make it that small with all the little pieces. Unless I just do a silhouette of him?

Any ideas?

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I would do the silhouette myself. Or a red prima with the black Mickey head gemstone in the middle.

I am so computer challenged....
been trying to post pics of my swap stuff and can't figure it out...
my laptop has a spot for my SD card and I can bring them up but then what do I do?
help me please......

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

you then need to upload them to a host site, like photobucket or shutterfly

then that site will give you an address to post here that will link back to the photo

 

[PrincessNancy96]

utilize photobucket.. it is very easy to upload your photos from your computer and than onto here...

you will see an IMG link under your photo on photobucket.. you highlight and copy that and then paste it into your posting here on the boards....

 

[mommy2mrb]

I will give it a try.....be back in a bit....
