Great job! You will have to incorporate your great port holes and life preservers. Your "cruise" art is wonderful!

A few more Animal Kingdom Pages. The opening inside of the pictures is blank so you can insert this into your document (like Word, Photoshop or whatever program you may use) and put it over the pictures that you want to view through the openings.

Don't let not owning an expensive photo editing program stop you from using these! If you have word you can do a lot. To make a scrapbook page using Word. Open up a new document and make it the size that you want to print (for example 12x12 or 8x8) and change the margins all to "0". Then insert the scrapbook page you want to use. You may need to click on the picture of the scrapbook page and go to the top of Word and right click on "format" then click on "Picture". Then click on the size tab and change the height and width to the size you are wanting to print.

Next making sure that the cursor is below the picture of the scrapbook page you have already inserted...insert the picture(s) you want on the scrapbook page by either going to the top of Word and clicking on "Insert" then in the drop down menu click on "Picture" then "from file" or you can simple copy and paste a picture.

Then click on one of the pictures that you want to show up in the frame opening. Right click on the corners of the picture and drag them towards the center to make the picture close to the the size that will fit in the opening of the frame.

Once you have the picture just about the right size. Make sure that the picture is highlighted by right clicking once more on the picture and a "picture toolbar" should pop up on your screen (since you have already been working with the picture it should already be on the screen). In the toolbar...look for a box with a picture of a dog and lines behind it which is the "text wrapping" tool. Click on that box and a drop down menu will appear. Click on "square". Then right click and drag the picture on top of the scrapbook page to the opening where you want it to appear. Resize the picture and move it around to make it better fit the opening. (hint: Only resize by dragging the corners of the picture...if you click or drag the circles in the middle or top center of the picture...you will distort the picture.)

Once the picture looks like it will fit the opening...right click on the picture again. Then click on the "text wrapping" tool on the picture toolbar and in the drop down menu click on "behind text".

If the picture is still not quite right...click edit undo. Resize the picture if needed. If part of the picture is showing and you can't click and drag without distorting the picture. You will need to crop the picture. Not a problem! Make sure the picture is highlighted. On the picture toolbar look for a picture of two plus signs which is the "crop" tool. Click on the "crop" tool and then point your mouse at the middle of the sides of the picture and then right click and drag them toward the center. This will allow you to crop without distorting the picture.

Then once you are happy try putting the picture behind the scrapbook page by clicking "behind text" again. Once you are happy with the page. Save it and you can print it at home or take it to a print shop. This will use a lot of ink since it is an entire page of color. You will probably save money by printing them at Kinkos or a similar store. Since it is a word document...I don't think you can print it like you would a regular photo. Not sure if places like Wal-mart photo department would recognize a word document.

I hope this inspires someone to try something new!

One final disclaimer...this will only work with certain files. GIF, BMP will work if the creator left an opening in the picture. JPEG's I believe are all flattened so that there will not be an opening to insert your picture behind. Play with it and you will start to learn which files work and which don't. I will try to make all of my files with picture frames from here on out this way. But don't despair! Instead of putting pictures behind the scrapbook page. Put them all in front of the page and you will have to do a "perfect" job of cropping the picture to put it where you want on top and inside of the frame. You can do it!!! If I can help...send me a PM and I will do my best to try to walk you through it.

Enjoy! Dolly

Journal Circle. Yeah...I learned something new! I saved this as a gif file so that only the picture will insert into your document. Now you won't have to worry about the box around it in case you want to use a background paper. Proof you can teach an old dog new tricks...although I'm not that old yet, but not as young as I used to be.

The new pages and journaling boxes are fabulous!

Dolly, would you consider reposting the other journal pages that you have created as gifs with openings for the pictures?

The second two Animal Kingdom Scrapbook Pages are already gifs...here is one of the first Animal Kingdom Scrapbook Pages that had frames as a gif with openings for pics. The other page didn't have openings.

Here is the Walt Disney World one that had a frame as a gif:

I think these are all great. I love the layouts because I am not such a great scrapbooker. Does anyone have layouts for the Little Einstein character meal and a layout for Chef Mickey's? Thanks so much

I will see what I can do to attempt a layout. Is there a specific name for the location where the Little Einstien character meal is?
