[iluvmickeytown]

I have a question. When you hostess does it have to be something handmade or can it be something bought? I mean as the prize.

They have been homemade but some of them have been from kits but there was never any stipulation put on it.

The prize can be a bought item, it doesn't have to be handmade. I hope you'll play. We'd love to see the pages you've made with the swapped items.

I think the only stipulation for a prize is make sure its something you wouldn't mind getting yourself

Love the clothespin! I need to get some pics uploaded.

Here we go.......

Flowers from prima swap, paper piecing made by Tinkerbean, quote from quote swap

Paper from paper box, topper and journal box from DLP swap (or whatever it was called ) stickers and brads from secret sister

Pieces from ABC swap, quote swap and the DLP-type swap

ABC swap

(I just couldn't find the right background for the last two pages - any one would think I never bought any paper or card! )

That may well be my lot as I'm getting the page swap done before I have to go MIA - do they count when you add photos and journalling or when mailed?

 

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Great pages Mazda. I'll get you added into the entries.

As for your question, I would think it counts once you add pictures and journaling. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

For this spot it is once you add pictures and journaling- on the pages completed you can count them either time.

Ok, this may seem like a stupid question, but is that you and Kicky in those photos? He's a very cute young man and reminds me of a former student.

Very nice pages!

 

[MazdaUK]

That's us! The little one is Kicky (the bigger boy is ViciousWig - his stupid choice of nickname!!!!)

I think he's cute too but I'm biaised

Love all the pages!

AWM - I love your slide frames usage. Great accent!

DIT - GREAT prize! Do you have directions somewhere?

I am hoping to use some of my Pet Swap pieces this weekend at my crop. I'm going to be starting Gracie's book so I hope to have pages to post next week!

 

[DisneyIsTerrific]

DIT - GREAT prize! Do you have directions somewhere?

Thanks Shauna. No, I don't really have any directions, I just kind of muddled through it and figured out what I wanted to do as I was going along. Here's a general idea of what I did though, if it helps:

1. Removed springy thing and paid attention to how it was on there so I could put it back on.

2. Paint both pieces of wood front, back & sides

3. After the paint was dry, I put the springy thing back on. It went on a lot easier than I thought it would.

4. I laid the clothespin on the paper I wanted to use and traced around it and then cut the paper on the pencil line. (I cut paper for the front & back)

5. Ran the paper through the Zyron and stuck it on the clothes pin.

6. Then figured out what to use to decorate it and then put those pieces on and the ribbon and it was done!

I'm bumping this to the top since this Friday (10/3) is the final day for entries. So, if you have pages done or plan to do some, get to it and post pictures for us to see!!!

Soarin is just one of many examples where the swap items precede the photos. I have beautiful stuff to use, so I have to come up with pictures to be able to use them! I have found that taking still photos of the video pre-show works well for rides that you can't take photographs during. And for some reason I just love that ceiling in Soarin - I think I take a photo of it every trip!

And I would love to see your pages, so please post them!
