Getting ready for disney quotes swap....signups Fri 11am edt

[missesdisney]

Signups next month for this so I figured it's time to gather some ideas. Since there are so many swaps going on I thought it might be best to make this one quote per person per group. I can make groups for character quotes, walt quotes etc or just do however many groups of general quotes there are but we'd have to be careful about not duplicating.

I was also thinking maybe 8 per group since it's only one quote per?

What are all of your thoughts? I'm not married to any one idea.

8 to group sounds good to me and I definitely like one quote.

As far as grouping -- by movie might be too much, 8 quotes from one movie? What about broader themes like

Pixar Movies
Fab Five & Walt
Classic Disney -- the older movies
Princess Quotes

I might consider joining this one, but would want the Walt quotes separate. Personally, I'm not a big character fan, and I think there would be enough for the characters (Fab 5, etc) to do them separately.

Another idea would be to have quotes about the 4 Parks and WDW / and DL. Maybe a group for WDW and one for DL. Personally, I love anything historical.

They would be embellished, right?

Just a couple of thoughts, for what they're worth!

Ooohh I would love you to join. I am a fan of your work!

there could also be a group of villains quotes - they do have some good ones!

i agree with susan that one group per film could possibly be a bit much. x

 

[missesdisney]

Good Good!!! Keep the ideas coming!

Thanks Susan for having the brain I did not to get the grouping ideas moving

My plan is One matted quote per person for 8 ppl per group - double matted (2 mats then quote) and embellished. I'm torn about size guidelines though - A one line quote could be done nicely but not fit requirements. What do you ladies think on size?

Here's what I have so far.....

Walt Disney quotes (my favorite!)
Pixar Movies
Fab 5
Pooh & Friends
Classic Disney (older movies)
Princeses
Villians
Park Quotes - maybe split to WDW and DL?

 

[Princess Jayne]

I'm not sure about size cos from some films a one line quote might be best but then for the walt ones they're bound to be longer than the one line.

for the ones from a film, are we doing spoken lines or could it be a line from a song from that film? x

That would be a great idea!!

Some of the other swaps I've been in always state a size minimun for the top layer that has the quote on it...Usually, that minimum is 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 ". I wouldn't want it to be smaller. Then the matting under that adds to size. I usually double mat, which means there are then 3 layers. If it's a one line quote, I make the font size larger as well. Having 2 kinds of embellishments on the items would be nice, too.

 

[MazdaUK]

I would have two sizes - one for a one-liner (e.g. "Drat the Boy!" ) where you'll need biggish letters and it could be used as a topper, and one for longer ones (like the one on the partners statue, or the poem about as big as a smile etc.) which could be the size of the quote/poem used generally.

Also, I'd ask people to either PM you or state when signing what they are doing so you don't get any duplicates.

I might have to break my "no more Disney cos I can't fit any more in my folder" rule for this.....

While I'm waiting for the new CM stuff anyway

 

[123SA]

I second that. I like eliminating the duplicates.

I was only going to do 2 groups this time. That may be hard to stick to.

 

[tiggermei]

Looking at my 12-page document of my fave Disney quotes that I hope to use on scrapbook pages eventually. Here are some groups:

• Walt's Quotes
• People (like Imagineers or other Disney folks - Eisner's speech on MGM) about Disney
• by Movie (or groups of movies -- i.e., Pixar, Princesses, Fab 5) - though I easily have 5 per movie, except like Roger Rabbit and A Bug's Life
• Rides
• Villains
• Other Disney (i.e., Mickey Mouse Club, Star Wars, Indy)
• Fireworks (Wishes, P&PP)

If anyone is looking for a "unique" one, I may can help.

 

[123SA]

pirates?

 

[New England Eeyore]

I might break my swap hiatus for this. My best friends and I *are* the Pooh characters so I would love some Pooh quotes to use. I already know which quote I'd pick!

That's the great thing about these - they could be used for so many different kinds of pages.

I think I'd also love some Walt quotes for my Disney books.

Tiggermei - I would absolutely love to see that quote file you have!

 

[Princess Jayne]

some of them could be used for anything which is whats so great. i keep watching Disney films and thinking hmm..could that be used? lol! Prince John in Robin Hood has some good ones! lol!!

I'd also love to see Tiggermei's file too! sounds good! x

 

[tiggermei]

I'd be happy to share my file but not sure how we'd do that. I can email to anyone who wants it.

In the meantime, I think I'll add an unusual one a day here.

"You're dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway." - Walt Disney

OK - Two!

"There is more treasure in books than in all the pirates' loot on Treasures Island and at the bottom of the Spanish Main . . . and best of all, you can enjoy these riches every day of your life." - Walt Disney

 

[YodasMom]

I've got the book of Disney Quotes that was sold at WDW....probably still is. It's loaded with mostly Walt quotes. I use it all the time.

You can also Google various character and disney movie quotes by inputting the name and quotes in the search line.

 

[MazdaUK]

So many quotes are perfect for other pages! Especially villains, for some reason

 

[tiggermei]

Four tonight because I love them. BTW, I sent Maria the file.

All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me... You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you. - Walt Disney

"Though we adore men individually, we agree that as a group they're rather stupid." - Mrs. Banks - Mary Poppins

in fairness --

"Angel, ha! She's a female! And all females is poison! They're full of wicked wiles!" - Grumpy - Snow White

and finally . . .

"It's a small underworld after all, huh?" - Hades - Hercules
