My Journal Pages --- New pages on hold due to technical error

[k_fawver]

My Power Point stopped working on my computer. I've tried everything I can to get it up and going again. That being said, all of my templates are not usable now. I'm working on using Photoshop to create some more journal pages, but it will be more time consuming since I don't have any of the templates handy. I'll do my best to get to everything as soon as possible.

I'm SO sorry that this has happened and I'm trying really hard to get everything back together.

I posted these two years ago, but I guess since we're going back, I'm going nuts again with designing..... lol

If anyone is interested in anything specific....just let me know. I have more pages on my photobucket. Link is below.

I have 365 pages on photobucket, but can personalize covers or do a specific page if anyone would like. Covers can be different colors as well. Or I can do a different sort of cover if anyone has any requests.

Hi,

I was wondering if you have any that are black and white. Trying to conserve ink after making all our t shirts recently!

Thanks,
Kristie

Hi Kristie....

I can desaturate any of the pages to make them black and white. Or I can just desaturate them to make them lighter. Give me a sec and I'll post a sample.

Another idea.....

I saved all of my pages on a jump drive, took it to the UPS store and they printed and bound my books for around $15-$20....I can't remember but I know it wasn't much. they look really good too. I'll take a pic in a little bit and post it. I was really pleased. Much much easier this way.

Here are the desaturated samples:

Another option would be to look at some of the other designer's pages here on the boards. I know that there are several that don't have as much color and everyone does such a great job! There are lots and lots of talented people that post here.

Any ideas for that? We are going to Rome, tower of pisa, Vatican, Pompeii,etc. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Can I a cover page with the name Jacob. I saw you had one for my daughter Jessica in your photobucket but I would like one for my son. Also what size are these when you are done. Great idea to have ups print them for you.
Can I have the Jacob one in blue and also a Jessica one with a pink cover. I showed it to my daughter and she would like a pink one.

Thanks

Awesome!
Could I have journals pages:
Blue: Chace, Sawyer, Blake
Pink: London, Savanna

Thanks!

Next morning depart to the Port

I can do some pages for you. I just need some more information.

- which cruise line?
- which ports will you be stopping at?
- any specific pages for certain things you'll be doing? places you'll be visiting?
- do you want pages on the cruise itself? entertainment? dining? etc...

Your designs are wonderful. I have two questions for you.

What size are your "new" autograph pages set to? I want to make sure I get my set up right.

Could you make one for Flynn Rider to go with the Rapunzel one?

Thanks

Thanks for the tip I think I will try the thumb drive and take them to get bound. Alot cheaper than I was thinking it would be.

Thanks,
Kristie

Here you go:

When I saved them, they're 8" x 10.5" so they would fit on an 8 1/2" x 11" page. I saved them in a Word document by inserting each picture on a page. I then saved the entire file and took to print. It made it easier and I knew my pages would be in the order I wanted them.

Thank you

autograph pages are 6x6. I'm thinking about doing either a 6x6 or 8x8 album so I thought that would make it easier. I'll get the Flynn Rider and post it in that thread.

HI!!!

I've been trying to take a stab at creating my own journal pages --- and let me just say: ICK!!!!!

I'd like to see if i can find maybe all the rides from Fantasy land on one page, all rides from adventureland on a page, tomorrow land --- etc etc....

What's the possibility??

ALSO -- what program do you use?? I'd love to take what you have and edit the pieces individually ---

Looking through MANY creative DISigns threads.... I REALLY like the "journaling boxes" with an icon/clip art from the ride. For example: Disney characters flying Soarin'...

Glad to see you're back --- i can't wait to see what you make for others!!!

 

[k_fawver]

Hey, thanks! You really should try....it's so much fun! Really simple to do too. It doesn't require much as far as editing software goes. I'll give you a run down on how I do it:

1. I use Microsoft power point for the most part. I've found it's the easiest way to do the journaling boxes, etc.
2. Open PowerPoint. Change the size of the slide to 7.5x10 on page setup.
3. Choose the background you want.
4. Insert pictures that you would like on the page. You can change the design of the picture as well. You can drop a shadow, change the shape, make it reflect, etc.
5. Insert clip art as needed.
6. To make the journaling boxes, I just insert various shapes, then insert a text box in the shape and type what I want in there.
7. I then insert the main text the page and format it the way I want it.
8. To save as a .jpg: click on save as, then other formats. Select jpg and save it in a folder.
9. Once I have all of the pages I want, I then open Microsoft Word and insert each page on a different page of a word document. This way, when it's printed, it'll all be in order.
10. Save as a word document and print. I took mine to the UPS store here in town. I found it was less expensive than any of the other places that print and bind. It was also MUCH less expensive than printing it at home. My pages have a LOT of color. Have them print it on thick paper and it will be JUST like a book. They bound it for me and everything. Cost was less than $20, but I don't remember exactly how much. They also put a laminated cover on the front which made it look really nice too. I was very impressed. It helped that the manager of the UPS store was going to Disney World at the same time I was... lol... she was really into making it look nice.

Some notes:
I also do my scrapbook pages this way. I made the page, took it to the UPS store and they printed them and I then added my stickers and die cuts, etc. I LOVE the way it turned out. I'll have to post pictures of this as well.

For some of the clip art, I have to cut out the image. I use Adobe Photoshop 7.0 for this. It's relatively simple. There are a lot of photo editing software programs out there. Any will do.

I'll work on those pages for you. I'll post them when I'm done and you can let me know if they're ok or if you want any changes.

Let me know if you have any questions

I don't want to hurt your feelings but I also don't want you to waste your time. I just saw another journal for the dream that has everything I requested in my previous post and I think I'll just download it. I'm going to use a few of the pages you have already done if that's ok? (Teppan, Epcot, etc.) Thank you for sharing your ideas and creativity. Hope I didn't cause you any problems. Your pages are really cool.

 

[k_fawver]

You're not hurting my feelings at all!! Thanks so much for letting me know. I'm glad you were able to find what you need

You actually made me start thinking about taking a cruise next year so I've been looking into that...lol

Have a great time!

If you have time could you do a journal page about vinylmations collected around the world.


TIA
Nancy

 

[k_fawver]

I'm working on requests for journal pages now. I should have everything by this weekend.

Do you have anything specific for the vinylmations page? Any further details?
