My October 2007 Scrapbook-over 160 pages & still not done! **updated 4/28**

[Pooh_Girl]

Your pages are GREAT as always!!!

Guess what I have?? I've finally uploaded the last 4 parade LOs for the Dreams Come True Parade (I finished them over a month ago!) Yay! Scroll up to see the first 3 sections of the parade.

Face the Darkest Fears-The 4th section, this is the Villains section! So fun! Title is made from the "Gracey's Curse" font, welded & cut with SCAL. All character stickers are EK Success. Paper is Doodlebug?

As Long As There Is Imagination In The World-The 5th section of the parade, this is another one that's a bit difficult because this section has lots of characters. The title is really long, so instead of cutting it out, I just used a picture I had from the back of the float that has the name. I also like that pic because it has a pic of Walt in the crystal. I matted the pic on white shimmer paper, then DCWV blue glitter paper, and inked the edges. Hopefully that makes it stand out as the title!

Paper, Peter Pan sticker, and green mickey head are EK Success. The Stitch element is a magnet I got at Disney. I thought it was perfect for this LO because it looks like he's in the same crystal as on the float. Hopefully. My pics from the parade do not show up well in the pics of this LO, but the crystal balls show up beautifully in those pics.

Happily Ever After-The 6th section of the parade, and my favorite. This is one of my fav LOs from the parade, too! I had several ideas for the title. I was going to cut the title using a font with SCAL or with the Happily Ever After cart. Instead, I cut the title from paper in DCWV's Once Upon A Time Paper Pack (8x8 pack.) Background paper is DCWV's Luxury Paper Pack & I used DCWV's Metallic mat stack to mat the pictures. Rhinestone crown is Me & My Big Idea, flowers are Prima, flower centers are from "Bling it On" kit. Three Princesses, pumpkin, and bird stickers are EK Success.

A Kingdom of Dreams-The 7th & final section of the parade. Title is made from the "Waltograph" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. Minnie is from the Mickey & Friends cart. She looks purple in the pics, but she's really the same color blue as Minnie wears in the parade. I stickled her bow & dress, leaving her sash plain, which is like her outfit in the parade. I used rhinestones from "Bling it On" kit on her shoes.

I also enhanced the Pluto & Donald stickers from EK Success for this LO. Pluto's collar got stickled green. I removed the yellow parts of Donald's shirt (so that he would match what he wore in the parade), and stickled his bow white. Neither enhancement shows up that well in the pic, though. Paper is Luxe, and the Merryweather sticker (which I thought compliments the title perfectly) is Sandylion.

[tink too]

I love your work - it has inspired me to finally get our May DCL cruise scrapped!

 

[eblondie]

Wow you really have done some great work. I especially love your stitch. It's fantastic Do you think I could have the file for this as I'd love to do this on a card and scrapbook.

 

[Pooh_Girl]

Great as usual!!! I absolutely LOVED the Mickey's Philharmagic pages!!!

 

[kswm30b]

Thank you!! I am so happy to inspire you to work on your album! I know looking at other's LOs always inspires me!!

Aww, thank you! I downloaded him from Vector-Cartoons.com, it was really easy to break him apart after that.

Great as usual!!! I absolutely LOVED the Mickey's Philharmagic pages!!!

Thank you. Haha, I haven't even posted that LO here yet! I'll be back tomorrow to post the next 4 LOs (including Philharmagic), I just have to double check the fonts used so I get them right for credits!

That's funny!! I always go straight to your pages and look at everything!!! You do such great work!!! Your MNSSHP pages have given me such awesome ideas for mine after we get back from our trip in October. I even have all my paper already picked out!!! Now I just have to talk DH into letting me get design studio.

Haha! Nah, that's the smart way to do it since I post so many at a time. Aww, thanks so much! I'm going back in Sept (I'm not even going to finish the MK section of my Oct '07 by then, let alone the rest of book, including all of Epcot & AK! Eek!), and already can't wait to scrap MNSSHP again!

 

[kswm30b]

Here are the other 4 LOs that I completed that I finally have uploaded & credited. Hopefully I can print some of my pics SOON so I can get some more LOs done before I go back to Disney in less than a month!

Hall of Fame - Princess Tent-I already did the 3 character pages for this, but this is the overall page for this attraction. No Cricut, but I still like how it came out. Paper & crowns are EK Success, scallop paper is DCWV, princess epoxy stickers are Sandylion, journaling sticker is Creative Imaginations, ribbon is 3 birds.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mk_hof_site.jpg.html

Crystal Palace-Like above, I already did my character pages for CP, but this is the LO for the restaurant in general. Title is made from the "Delitsch Antiqua" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. DCWV glitter paper was used for the title, it's VERY glittery! The Pooh paper piecing is not mine, I got him off ebay a while ago (pre DSS, SCAL, & Pooh carts!) Paper is Cosmo Cricket, photo corner rubons is American Crafts, "Hunny" pumpkin is EK Success, and Pooh stickers are Sandylion.

Crystal Palace Bday-For my mom's bday celebration at the restaurant. She got the card signed by all the characters, the table was decorated with streamers and mickey head confetti, and she got a cupcake. So fun! Title is made from the "Pooh" font, cut & welded with SCAL. The confetti is used to dot the "i"s in the title. It's also on the 2nd page bordering the Pooh picture & in the mickey pouch (the pic of the page doesn't really show off the pouch, but it's cute!.) Paper is DCWV Glitter Stack (the color streamers are all glitter), Pooh stickers are Sandylion, and cupcake is EK Success.

Mickey's Philharmagic-This is one of my FAV attractions, and I took a long time on this LO because I wanted to love it as much as the attraction. Donald (who I made MONTHS ago!) and "Mickey's" in the title are from the Mickey & Friends cart. "Philharmagic" is made from the "Started By A Mouse" font, cut & shadowed with SCAL. Used DCWV glitter paper for "Philharmagic", and shimmer paper for "Mickey's". The journaling is printed on music paper, though it's hard to see in this pic. Paper is Creative Imaginations (I thought it looks like the curtain in front of the stage.) Sorcerer's hat sticker is Karen Foster & rhinestone music note is Me & My Big Ideas. I'm not sure who makes the epoxy music stickers & music brads because I got them ages ago, and they weren't in their original packaging.

Heather, Thanks for sharing all your pages. They are amazing. I need to get reinspired to start working on my book from out Jan 2007 trip. This might just be the kick in the butt I needed. Everytime I see your pages I think I need to get SCAL and CDS. I think they are going to be on the top of my Christmas list this year.

 

[AKGAL]

Wow, I am going to WDW the same time this year and have been working on getting some ideas before I go. Your pages are beautiful.

 

[PixieDust32]

Love your pages!

Can you tell me what's SCAL? You mentioned on your stitch page?

Vector-Cartoons and cut with SCAL

Thanks

Thank you! And yes, you NEED SCAL & CDS. I can't scrap without them.

Thank you. I think when we went was such a great time (I never finished my trip report, I should do that before I go again!) The weather was great & it wasn't too crowded. We are going in late Sept this year, and I'm really worried about the heat!

Love your pages!

Can you tell me what's SCAL? You mentioned on your stitch page?

Thank you!

SCAL is Sure Cuts a Lot. It's a program that allows you to cut any True Type font on your computer, along with any vector images. I was a little hesitant about getting it at first, but I'm SO glad I decided to take the plunge because it's amazing! Here's their site with more info (there's also a forum where people post tips and such):
http://craftedge.com/
I have some more info on the program on pg 3 of this thread, but if you have any other questions, let me know! I've been using SCAL a lot on recent LOs.

 

[PixieDust32]

Thank you!

I just finished looking at your whole book and the only thing I can say is WOW. You did a great job on it!!!!!!!

Thanks! I can't wait to get back to work on it, I'm just waiting for the pics I just got printed to arrive. But then I'm going back to Disney in 15 days (yay!!), so who knows what'll happen when I get home! I really wish I was more finished than I am (I know that sounds crazy with 150+ pages, but you should see the list I still have left to do!) I was at least hoping to be done with the Magic Kingdom by this trip. Oh well! I'll just never be done scrapping Disney, which is ok.

 

[kswm30b]

Here are the LOs I've completed the last few days. I really was hoping to work on both Haunted Mansion & Pirates before my trip (I leave on Monday!!) I also thought I could work on a few more single page LOs today, but I didn't get a chance. So, this will definitely be the last LOs until I get back. Wonder if I'll finish this trip before I go back in '09, haha!

Small World-I scraplifted Yzerbear's idea of putting pics all around the edge from her Small World paper LO. This is sort of a hybrid LO. I orignally was going to print 2 pics on a 4x6 and then cut it in half (so each pic would be 4x3), but then I just decided that it would be easier to place the pics digitally on 12x12 & go from there. I debated about whether to use digital paper for the empty space or just keep it white and add real paper later. I went with white, but I probably should have used digital paper (I like the final result, but it would have been easier.) Once I had the LO printed, I added the usual elements to the page. "It's a Small World" is made from the "Storybook" font, cut with SCAL, using DCWV glitter paper. I've always liked this font, but hadn't cut with it yet. I LOVE the way the title came out! Paper is Anna Griffin (8x8, so I just had to cut 2 inches off, and it fit perfectly in the empty space) and the stickers are EK Success. This may not be the best LO I've done, but it's one of my favorites. I really love the way it came out.

Buzz Lightyear-"Buzz" is from the Opposites Attract cart, using the DCWV glitter paper (again!) Need to double check what paper was used, I can't remember. All stickers are EK Success. I had too many pics for this ride, it was taking me forever to figure out how to place the pics, even after I eliminated one pic!

The rest of these are single page LOs, ones I knew I could finish quickly before our next trip. So, not necessarily my favorites.

Peter Pan's Flight-I hope I get some good pics during the ride this time, but on this trip, I really didn't get anything during the ride. Title is made from the "Started By A Mouse" font, cut with SCAL. Rhinestone is from "Bling it On" kit, character stickers are from EK Success. Paper has all kinds of Peter Pan words on it. I tried to place it so you could read some of them, like Tink, you can fly!, off to neverland, and Peter Pan (sort of!)

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mk_peterpan.jpg.html

WDW Railroad-Paper by Sandylion, stickers by EK Success, and chipboard letters by Lil' Davis (I love using these look-like-wood chipboard letters!) I never got a pic of the Toontown station on this trip, so I took that one during the PPP in March, when it was dark. Oh well, haha.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mk_railroad.jpg.html

Extra Magic Hours-LO for both the morning & evening Extra Magic Hours at Magic Kingdom. Title is from the Mickey Font cart. The matching of the orange on the pamphlet and the orange in the paper was total coincidence. I picked the paper before I even remembered that I had the pamphlet. (I had to not use one of the pics I was planning to so I could add it.) Paper and stickers are by EK Success.

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mk_emh.jpg.html

Frontierland-OK, this was a digi LO (seen here, but I deleted 3 elements in the upper right hand corner. Then I printed the LO, and added the Mickey sticker. It came out cute! Other than the glare, I love the pic of this LO, because I think all the elements on the page look real. The Mickey sticker doesn't stand out as being real with the rest looking digital. The stitching, frames, etc all look just as real as the added sticker (and it looks like that in real life, too.)

http://heatherw.com/other/gallery/v/other/scrapbook/dis07/mk_frontier_hybrid.jpg.html

I'm more than halfway done my Magic Kingdom LOs (depending on how many LOs I want to do for a few things, like the castle and the castle show.) Then I still have Epcot & AK, and other random things. *sigh* I hope when I get back I can plow through these...I'm sure I'll want to work on this year's album soon (not to mention the short trip from March!)

I have about 20 digi LOs that I've done for this trip, I should probably post them in this thread, too. I'll have to do that when I get back.

Oh, and since I have no where else to post this, haha, here's the cover for the autograph book I made for this trip:

 

[Pooh_Girl]

Great pages as usual!!! I just have one question for you...Where do you get your paper?? It's soooooo cute!!!

 

[kswm30b]

Great pages as usual!!! I just have one question for you...Where do you get your paper?? It's soooooo cute!!!

Thanks Oh, I get it all over! I can never have enough paper. I get papers at LSS, the big scrapbook/craft stores, and mousememories.com (most of my Disney stuff comes from there, probably.)

 

[New England Eeyore]

I always love looking at your pages and always get a lot of inspiration! I've been sorting pictures lately to work on my "park" albums - not trip specific, but ride specific and you've given me so many good ideas! Thanks for sharing, and have a wonderful trip!!
