Welcome to the newest digi-challenge! This week we'll be doing a template challenge. I have come to love template challenges, especially when I see how everyone comes up with such different ideas. So, to quote Peter Pan,
"Come on, everybody! Here we go....."
For me, the best part of scrapbooking is telling the story, whether it's mostly through photos, journaling, or a little of both. But mostly I love the photos! The more photos I can get on a page, the better.
So, here is your challenge for the week - to tell a story. It doesn't matter what the story is, as long as it is about something Disney.
Here's my page that inspired this challenge. We picked at pearl at the Mitsusoshi Department Store in the Japan pavilion at Epcot for my friend Heather's birthday. Since she wasn't there, I wanted to be able to have her experience it through a scrapbook page, which in my opinion is the next best thing to being there. So I came up with this:
Here's the journaling: "We went to the Mitsukoshi Department Store in Japan to purchase a very special birthday treat - a pearl - for Jan's friend, Heather. The kids chose the oyster, and before we knew it, the oyster was opened and we were looking at the beautiful pearl. The pearl is now ready to be measured and shown off - it is a 7-1/4 mm pink pearl, all ready to be set into a necklace for Heather."

Here are the rules:
Here's the link for the template. It has both the .png files and a .page file for those who use SBC+.

Note: Even though it doesn't show it here, the template was created for use in a StoryBook, so it was intended for the photos will bleed off of the page. But if you're just doing a page print, then it won't bleed. Either way is okay by me - I just wanted to let ya'll know, just in case.
I'll pick two winners at random just because it's so hard to choose. And thanks to our wonderful friend Brittney, I have a fantastic prize for the winners!
ScrapMatters has a brand new designer, Megan (pronounced Meegan) Turnidge, and she has graciously offered to donate the prizes for this week. Each winner will receive a $10.00 gift certificate to her store. Now, isn't that fantastic? Please be sure to check out Megan's store to see her fantastic products. She has a little bit of everything there, from full kits to hybrid goodies to page templates, even the cutest little felt cupcakes! Here's the link for you. Be sure to tell her "hi" and that you heard about her on the challenge.
Have fun, and I can't wait to see what ya'll do!

Here are the rules:
- Tell a story. It can be of a particular ride, experience, silly moment, favorite foods you ate, or about an entire trip. You can even use it as the end page summary or the first page of a trip album. It's yours to decide.
- Use 6 photos. No more, no less. If you want to add an extraction, say of a sign or something, that would be okay, but it doesn't count as a photo.
- The photos must stay in a line.
- Have a title that can be either an alpha or text.
- Journal and tell the story.
