I think B&W is a good idea Holly. It'll look great!!!

 

[MinnieGarden]

Great work everyone! I'm still here and have supplies and ideas. I'm going to get started this afternoon.

The wedding turned out fabulous. We had about 15 people and once the rain stopped (4.5 inches on the big day ) about an hour before the ceremony it was smooth sailing. Below is a link to a thread on the podcast board with pictures on page 3. Ian (age 6) was in charge of the rings, so he built a Lego carrier for them....

Alright, so here's my Norway - the topper is inked (Blackbird chalk ink) and embossed (Cuttlebug D'vine Swirl) and I forget the font....

The Mickey head is a paper piecing. The mat is... a mat.

This is for the Star Tours group, the topper is coming soon. And not all of the black will be there... I need to color in a bit.

I used up almost all of my silver/gunmetal metallic paper on these..... guess I have to buy more

The original image:

The "eye" is red stickles. Everything else was done in SCAL, except for the guns, which I had to hand cut, since Inkscape was being finicky.

Those are awesome! I get a Norway!
And that SW thingie! Wow!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Woah ZTH, those are so cool!

Holly, black and white sounds neat for France.

 

[party of 3]

thanks everyone!

WOW ZTH- those are both so nice! ds love that star wars one!!

 

[DisneyIsTerrific]

ZTH, awesome job on both groups. That Star Wars at-at (I think that's what it's called) is fantastic!!!

 

[ZeroToHero]

You're right, it is an AT-AT! I didn't even know until the other day... when I was trying to figure out what it's called.. I knew it couldn't just be a "walker".

Thank you everyone..

I colored in the black, and I think it looks better now. I'm going to go walk the dog, and then work on the topper. It's going to be on the smaller side, because this thing is BIG... 6x7? Maybe a little smaller. And I still want room for people's pictures.

I still want room for people's pictures.

You want me to put pictures on the page?

Lou always goes "You know, I don't understand this "scrapbooking" thing. The point is to take SCRAPS of things to remember stuff by, not go buy fancy paper and stickers and print out photos and all this stuff!"

He just doesn't understand.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Just tell him we have evolved.

Ladies here are 2 of my groups that I finished up tonight. I just have the monorail group that I'm an angel for and I'll be finished. I hope you like them. Let me know if they are not embellished enough or anything. This is my 4th swap here and I'm still afraid I'll flub up and not meet the requirements. I was thinking about my best friend and her family in WDW right now (for the 1st time EVER) while I worked on these all weekend. It helped me to not be so jealous. Thanks everyone. I'm enjoying swapping with you all!

[party of 3]

[PirateTink]

Wow - that ATAT is awesome! I never would have thought to make that in SCAL.

The shaker box for Small World is a great idea! Very creative.

Thanks for the pictures!

 

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Both of those sets look awesome, but I really love the Small World set. You do great work!!!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Very cute items posted!!!

I have finished France... I have It's Tough To Be A Bug almost done...
I think I have 4 more to go.. I have an idea for TSM provided I can get it to work.. I hope it works! If not, I'll figure something out!

Thanks! I had a piece of scrapbook paper that was from a long time ago. I was saving it to do a wreath layout for Epcot out of flags. I color copied (onto scrapbook safe paper) that piece of flag paper and reduced the size 50% then I cut out all the tiny flags. I used a coluzzle circle template to make the ring and the base for the shaker box. It was tough doing a circle with the foam mounting tape though so if I was doing it again I'd make a square or rectangle shape to save time. I'm glad you like it. I have some extra tiny flags that I ended up not using. If you'd like them I can send you some. Thanks again for the compliment!
