Completed Page Swap - **Complete**

[TPCShauna]

I'll print you one. I won't mat it unless you want me to (figuring you may want to mat it yourself in paper that matches whatever you want it for).

I'll be matting it in deep purple and maleficent green

I adore this AND I'm in that group so I'm super happy!

I need to figure out the whole multi quote thing. Quick question, should every photo mat and journaling box be embelished? I'm afraid it'll look too busy if I start embelishing everything....

also, on one page (Getting Around) I have a paper pieced photomat (it's the monorail) It's rather long. (10 inches) Should I just hide two small tags in addition to the two embelished squares or figure out a way to fit it all?

I don't think every single mat has to be embellished. A couple of mats on each page is great and most everyone has been keeping the embellishments small. I don't embellish every mat on my regular pages so I don't think it's necessary here either.

The PP monorail sounds incredible. If you haven't made the tags, then I wouldn't worry about it. I paper pieced photo mat that is that large is more than equivalent to two more tags.

Ok. Here they are... Click if you want to... I hope they are ok. For the Magic Kingdom ones, the mats are arranged so they are a pocket. You could use both or just the bottom one. One the Pressed Pennies one there are little pockets to put your pennies in.

I LOVE these! The MK set is fabulous. Really great job!

I'm changing the deadline again to Wednesday, April 30. I'm picking up on some stress from a few of you and I want this to be fun. Also, to be perfectly honest, my recovery is not going fabulously well and I'm anticipating that I'm going to have a hard time when I go back to work on April 7. I don't know that I'm going to have the energy to swap everything out on April 14.

I'm sorry to all of you that have finished on time and already mailed your stuff and I hope you don't mind that I pushed out the deadline. I'm sure the end result is going to be worth it.

My other swap group that does completed pages all the time is super jealous of the work y'all have created on our first attempt at this kind of swap. I must say I am just delighted. Thanks for playing!

I love the pressed pennies one. Just curious, how are the pennies adhered? I was wondering if I could remove the shiny round ones & replace them with some of the ones we have that are already pressed. Right now they are in a box collecting dust.

Your MK one is super adorable and again I am mad at myself for not signing up for all the groups I have seen so far.

The pennies are glue dotted on - they are actually play money so they are plastic. I'm sure you could remove them, but I did give you 3 pockets for you to put pennies into. I think you could probably fit more than one in each pocket.

Finally, I won't be upset about how much money those little pennies cost us. They now officially fall in the catagory Scrap Supplies and therefore the cost is unimportant.

I love these completed pages!

I hope we do some more swaps of them.

Adorable.. I think I'll have to lift those too!!!

 

[Michellepooh]

I'm fine with changing the due date, Shauna. Whatever makes things easier for you and your recovery. I'm just dying to see everything.

I also agree that we should do more of these completed page swaps. Yes, they are very expensive and time-consuming, but from what I've seen so far, they are totally worth it! I love that I just have to add my pictures and I'm done, because when the new little one arrives I'm sure my time to scrap will be greatly diminished!

 

[KatDisney]

new Due date is great with me. I'm almost done, but I'm seriously stuck on Alice and mad Hatter, i just can't wrap my head around ANYTHING with these 2. I finally got my dalmatian pages figured out.

Looking back I wish I was in my groups now. I do believe these have been my best work so far and so much easier than "elements" Heaven only knows why though.

I agree with Susie I hope we do this more Could always add something in the surprise swap..lol..

I find the coompleted pages are easier than elements too.

 

[notes4theheart]

An extension is fine with me. Your health is way more important than a swap any day.

Plus, it gives me an excuse to play with the vision of the MGM/DHS I had last night!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

changing due dates is fine with me Shauna. Your health is #1. I can always use extra time. LOL

 

[Mrs.Charming]

The extension is good because now I can put this one down for a week, focus on the other two elements swaps and come back to this with renewed vigor!

This made me ! You're a hoot!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Glad y'all are OK with the extension. I'm also extremely pleased that you are enjoying the swap. They are a lot of work but the quality of the end product from this group is so phenomenal that I think it is worth the expense to get the finished product.

Speaking of more swaps of this nature, I have had a request to add a scrappers' choice group. Please let me know if you would be interested in participating in another group of this nature.

What do you mean by swapper's choice?

I would like to see some swaps of the lands within the parks, countries World Showcase and things like that.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I'd also like to see more everyday type ones, Christmas, Birthday, that kind of stuff.

Good idea. Do you think I should throw spots for those in with my series?

 

[Michellepooh]

I agree with AWM, I could use a lot of everyday pages, especially holidays.

 

[KatDisney]

I'd be interested in additional groups

I don't know specifically because it wasn't my idea. I'll add whatever groups y'all want.

I'll ask Buffy to add a holiday completed page swap to the calendar for later this year. That's a great idea!
