Resort Swap - PROGRESS: Some POSTAL! Slideshows posted

[hopemax]

What is the last day of signups? I want to prevent the oops I did not order enough problem that I had once when the group grew at the last minute. Thankfully another swapper had what I was short of so it all worked out. Thanks.

I think you posted, while I was posting. I plan to start removing empty groups on Monday, and get this closed on Wednesday.

Hope, thanks for the advice. What do you think? It would look cute to have the monorail at each end and I can put my letters on top of it but I do think it will be more than 2 inches. I hate to ask everyone to make "skinny letters"...maybe someone has an idea in mind already. I don't want to step on any toes.

I don't mind making skinny letters. The problem "fonts" tend to be the Mickey Font, Tear Drop. George & Plantin might be a problem too, especially for an "M" Why don't you prototype them out, as you imagine them and we can see how much space we have to save.

If those people with, CDS or SCAL can play "How big would this word be, if everyone used this font," on a 24" mat and not make both their letters out of a wide font, I think we should be okay.

Hello, my name is Johnna, and I am addicted to swaps.


Don't tell my DH I am posting.....ssshhhhhh

I would like CBR - since its the only place I have ever stayed - but I have pics to scrap!!!

I will do both altered letters and for elements I will do jounal boxes. Do I do 1 or 2 journal boxes per person??

 

[Disneyland_emily]

No issues Hope- I'm really not picky since I don't "need" anything and the only resorts I've stayed in I have very few pictures (and ironically not in any of those groups)

As for the Contemp colors it would depend where pictures are taken. The hotels colors have shifted more towards the peach/teal/brown/gray/beige side but its more noticeable in the lobbies. 4th floor is still the darker tones due to the mural/Chef Mickey's/Fantasia shops. Guest rooms/BLT is a mix of the 2. Some brighter tones but some more darker. It's definitely not a hotel that has a stable color pallet. If I had to pick I'd say cream/black/silver/brown but thats not fun to scrap

As for skinny letters- I'll play as long as the 'rail color isn't red (kidding) oh and I call 5 legged Goat for one of my letters

Bumping...

These are the open letter spots that I would really like if we could fill

Caribbean Beach - 1 spot
Beach Club - 1 spot
Grand Floridian - 1 spot
Old Key West - 1 spot for each person to make one of the initials
Bay Lake Tower - filled

Harder to Fill, but will check for added interest anyway
Swan - 2 spots
Dolphin - 2 spots
Saratoga Springs - 3 spots
Coronado Springs - 3 spots
French Quarter - 3 spots, although if I bump every one up to 3 letters each, we only need 1 more person

Hope I can take the last spot for Bay Lake Towers in the altered letter group.

Hi Hope!! I will take a "B" from Beach Club in addition to my other two if that helps you...that way there are only 2 more letters (one spot) to fill.

Let me know!!

Thanks,
Erin

I would also be able to fill one of the slots in Grand Floridian. I have plenty of photos for it...just didn't originally put in for it because I was stumped on ideas for it. So, if you have any suggestions to get me going, I'd be able to help you out there too. LOL Guess that sounds pathetic...just at a loss there.

Going to 3 letters for everyone is my "back-up" plan for a couple groups, but a few people seemed willing to fill-in some spots, so let's see where we end up in a couple days.

Ok...just wanted you to know that the offer is out there!! I did see that you planned to go to 3 letters each as a back up. Hope they fill up a little more! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

This is only a one element swap, so you can do matchbooks without the box or mats if you want.

I'll take GF and French Quarter.

Oh, and Beach Club too. Sure, why not.

Throw me in any letters.

 

[hopemax]

Thanks Danica!

 

[Tigger1221]

It looks like Grand Floridian elements isn't popular so I will do
Beach Club Alt letters- any letters
Beach Club elements too.

We have never stayed here but have eaten here a few times. I would love to stay here.

 

[hopemax]

It's weird, some years there is lots of activity on a particular resort, and then the next year, not so much. Just a different group of people I guess.

We stayed at BC in 2000. LOVED the pool, and loved how easy it was to get to Epcot. I'd stay there again, but with my parents down there now, if we ever actually stay on property again, DH only wants to stay at AKL.

I'll volunteer for the OKW spot.

If no one else volunteers I can take a Caribb Beach, French Quarter, Grand F, Saratoga and Coronado Spot. I don't really have need but I have scraps to use I however have no pics for The Swolphin so won't help there

[hopemax]

Thanks, I'll see if anyone else wants them before I add you.

 

[Disneyland_emily]

No problem

Quick question- On groups with only 3 letters (AK Lodge/OKW) are they still 2 inches or are they going to be bigger cause there are just 3?
