Awesome pages, how did you get that giraffe close up? It's great!

 

[PiperPizzaz]

Thanks so much for the comments, I was really nervous about posting anything.

The giraffe was pretty close to the safari truck anyway but, I cropped in some. Here is the original. Not sure what the bars are, part of the truck maybe?

 

[Fran98765]

Very cool. Giraffes are my favorite and we never get that lucky with them on KS. Maybe next time!

Thanks so much for the comments, I was really nervous about posting anything.

I am so glad you posted!!!! You should not be nervous at all. That is an awesome pic of the giraffe. I do love your layouts. You have some very creative elements. I hope you post more layouts as you get them done...

Here is a new layout that I just finished. I may change the picture to one from our cruise and use it in my cruise album....

I love the re-worked pages! I think it looks great to highlight each of the characters on their own pages. I think when the kids look back on them they will enjoy each of the pictures more. Great job! I need to get going and decide which software I am going to upgrade. I am having trouble choosing Corel Paint shop because I don't like their wordperfect or spreadsheet programs. Don't like is not a strong enough word. I didn't want to pay hundreds of dollars for a program either though. Until I decide I will keep enjoying these awesome pages that you guys are kicking out. Way to go!!!

Thank you! As per programs....I use Paint Shop Pro X (I don't use Wordperfect or their spreadsheet program so I can't comment on them...I use MS Office for those functions) Anyway, I have been very happy with Paint Shop but I think if I had to pick a program over again I would choose Photoshop Elements. There just seems to be many more tutorials and info on this program. Don't get me wrong, their is alot for Paint Shop and I am happy with it so far...

Thanx Lisa for the info.

I actually found Photoshop Elements 5 through softwareoutlet.com for $39.99. I was wondering how they can have the product for so cheap but they are selling the version that Dell, Compaq, etc. buys to install into PC. That means that it doesn't have the fancy packaging. My friend just ordered office suite software through them and was happy. I feel better after reading your post that I made the right decision. Thank you again and keep the pages coming to inspire me.

Great page...I hope you don't mind me asking you another question...the ribbon that is with the Mickey brad...is that one element? It looks that way and I am wondering how you got part of it over the brad and the rest of it under? I have seen in PSPX where you can arrange things to be on top or bottom but haven't figured out how to use items in both places. The layout I am doing now, I am using paperclips but I erased part of the image to make it look like part of the paperclip is under the pictures. (I hope that made sense) =)

Thanks,
Jessica

Lisa - I would have never thought to use the mickey heads as a border like that. Looks great and I will steal the idea LOL

Nice job as always!

 

[j_lehr]

I finally hooked up the scanner and figured out how to use it. I was able to scan in some of the paper scrapping supplies I bought...and they turned out decent. another . Here are some examples...

The first two are papers I had, the last one was from an alphabet pack I had...

Not sure if it's "legal" to share (don't see why not...since I am not selling) but if you like and want, pm me your e mail address and I will send to you. =) I scanned a bunch of other stuff too but didn't upload it to photo bucket.

At least now all the supplies I bought when I was intending to paper scrap arn't wasted!

Thanks,
Jessica

A side note...the paper doesn't look "square" in my post (at least on my computer) but it is. I have it sized 8x8 on my computer, but intend to resize to 12x12 when I used it.

Kelly, thank you!!! I would have never been able to make that border if not for your wonderful willingness to share!!! Thank you for designing all those mickey heads to begin with. I actually scraplifted the entire page. There are alot of digital Disney designs on E-bay and I saw one that inspired me to create the page. I also like the new MGM pages you posted. It is good to see you back!!!

Hi Jessica - It is actually two elements. The Mickey Brad and the Ribbon with the button are two different elements that I merged together. I basically did the same thing you do with the paper clip where you 'erased' part of the image. In PSPX there is a neat way to erase things so you can easily correct your mistakes in case you erase too much. It is called Masking a layer. You should look for some tutorials on Masking since it is a REALLY helpful thing to know. If you can't find anything on it, PM me and I will try to expain it to you...

I decided to take a Disney break (I know, I know...but I think I am in a Disney rut...I felt like I was doing the same thing to every page!) and I decided to start scrapping my daughter & her braces. =)

The paper and frames are from the Princess Kit from Gloria Ketchum (Digitals Store). The teeth and stickers were bought at AC Moore and I scanned them in.

Hope you don't mind me sharing even though it's not Disney. =)

Thanks,
Jessica

I need to finish a Disney album... so here's one I did:

 

[beasleybear]

I just found these cute, cute, CUTE little animals from DeDe Smith at Digitals, and knew I had to have them for my Animal Kingdom pages.
ETA that I keep forgetting to mention that the animals do NOT come with the hats! I don't want to mislead anyone into thinking they are a Disney product. They'd work great for any zoo or animal related pics.

 

[Lisa0503]

Fran - That is an adorable pic of your son with Sorcerer Mickey...too cute!!!

Chris - Those animals are awesome thanks for sharing!!!!

 

[bookmompooh]

love the layouts....the animals are just too cute.
