Stuck on how to do Disney Album

[wendyc555]

I am stuck on how I should go about scrapping my Disney album. We went to Disney atleast 5 times in one year. I don't know how to start the album. Does anyone have any advice on how I should start it?

Thanks!

Are you planning on doing one mega book for all 5 trips?

If you are combining trips I would suggest either by park, or ABC. I'm currently doing ABC's for my kids combining all of our trips. I just write the date under each picture.

I think chronologically might be overwhelming and redundant if you hit the same places over and over.

Doing an ABC book would definitely allow you to combine photos from more than one trip. I've done this before, so feel free to PM me if you have questions/need advice on the pages.

If you wanted to do a big book you could color code each trip or use a theme like ABC or a specific repeating embellishment for each trip. You could group your photos by "lands". If you have gone during different seasons, you could show the same photos at different times of the year. There is no wrong way to scrapbook.

I have done my books a variety of ways. The DCL was done ABC fashion.
I have used one color of paper for each "photo group" (parade pics, show pics, resort pics, etc...). We were at Epcot during the 25th Anniversary so all Epcot pics on silver paper. I have grouped by park and sort of created my own paper by cutting the same printed paper borders glued to different colors of cardstock as a way to unify photo of that park. One book I did a theme of mickey heads punched from print paper to fill spaces around photos to unify that trip. I stayed at Pop Century had argyle heads for 50's, tye die for 60's, paisley for 70's, metallic for the 80's and camiflage for the 90's. Animal Kingdom came out pretty cool with the different animal coat/skin printed heads. I used floral print for Flower/Garden festival.

Do you have any pictures on your ABC pages? I'm sitting here wondering what to do with some of my Disney trips and this sounds like a great idea!!!

Thank you for the list.
maslex - I have not started the pages yet. I have just seperated them using the ABC list that I have.

We went to Disney several times in one year a few years ago. I did my album by "Event". When you look thru your photos you will find events you want to document and some you don't. Then when I placed them in the albums. It took 3, I did it chronoligical. But I did skip the duplicate things like parades and fireworks. The only difference is we are sometimes wearing different clothes at a parade but, it isn't too noticable.
