Terri24601- Wonderful journaling! What a great lesson to learn! Love all the glitter and the cute pictures!

ngneer98- Left you love at SM, congratulations on Gallery Standouts! Great layering! Love all the bright colors again the white background!

mumloveseeyore- Love the glitter! Love the tag on the string too! Looks like a fun Dream!

There's still some time left to get in your layouts! I'm not sure if my husband or one of my daughters will pick the winners this time! Can't wait to see what the rest of you come up with! These have been wonderful!

The pages uploaded are so good!! Does anyone know if you can buy the mousekepapers and mouse sprinkles in brittish designs store at scrapmatters? They are SOOO cute!!

I had finished this one right before we left for the weekend and tweaked the journaling a bit from the first version. My "souven'ear'" is in the journaling!

Thanks for the fun challenge!

I don't think anything with MM ears in it will be in her store. But, you should visit her blog...I think she has freebies on it with some of these. Britt, that's right, isn't it?

Arrgggg!!! Photoshop keeps blipping out on me. I must have done my page 3 or 4 times now but before I get to a point of saving PS shuts down and I lose everything. I know, I know. I should be saving more often. But I keep forgetting until it's too late. Now I'm not sure I'm going to make it by tonight. :sad2:

Computes are such a pain. (I'm having problems with both PSCS3 on my laptop - keeps exiting out of program AND PSCS4 on my desktop - get errors when try to open PNG files. It's enough to make me go back to paper scrapping and toss the computers out the window!)

Here's mine finally. I haven't gotten my scrappin' mojo back since I got home. I hope this souven"ear" counts. My husband was a BIG Millionaire fan when it was at MGM. He'd play it 2 or 3 times a day and actually won the million once and we got a Disney cruise as the prize. Not bad! He really misses that attraction so I was able to get him one of the real hot button key pads that was used in the attraction as a souven"ear". It sits on a shelf in his den.

The Mickey Sprinkles was an element that we had to use in one of the challenges here. I think the link may still be active on this thread.

I really don't remember how we got the Mouskapapers. Maybe someone else will.

I save mine at 72dpi, 600x600 and less than 156k (SM requirement).

I scrap with PSE 5.0, and my original layout is 12"x12", which is 3600 pixels x 3600 pixels. I ALWAYS create my layouts at 300 dpi, otherwise they get grainy. When I save for posting to the web somewhere, I save it as a .jpg and save it at 600x600, on the "high" resolution setting, and that usually gets the filesize under 150k (which is what the limit usually is for posting a LO).

HTH!

They were a participation prize for the DIS challenge I ran back in October.

quiltymom · May 5, 2009

I don't think that I'm going to have the time to make a LO for this challenge, the first I've missed in ages! But we'll see - there's still a speed scrap tonight, if I can make it.

Okay - down to the wire! I just finished this at the speed scrap:

Thanks for hosting! This one wasn't easy for me since DH hardly lets us in a store while we're in the parks. I only got these because we go there the night before we play!

janette · May 5, 2009

Just making the deadline on this one, I couldn't think of an idea or pictures but my 17yo DD thought pictures of our puppies would work but they waited until today to take the pictures. It worked out since Scrapmatters New template was perfect for them.
