Typhoon Lagoon Park advice

[maslex]

I am seriously planning out my Disney scrapbook ahead of time for my upcoming trip in July. We will be going to Typhoon Lagoon and I'd like to do a 2-page layout of our day there. I wanted to do something a bit different other than the typical blue water type of page. I found this paper and thought it would be nice

And I've also got two palm tree die cuts that I'd like to use. I'm trying to find something else that would go with this page. Am I wrong to use green and palm trees for this page? I've never been, but I thought since there was a restaurant called Leaning Palms, that this might work. What other colors would go (like for matting) or other coordinating paper? Thanks for your help? I'll be placing an order shortly with scrapyourtrip, so I'm wondering if I should keep this idea or go with something else?

The idea of Typhon Lagoon is that a typhoon hit and everythinbg is a mess. I don't remeber too much green but palm trees would definately work. The park icon is a boat that has wholes in it and is resting at the top of Mount Gushmore (I think that is the name). I think the green in the paper you are looking at seems a little dark. It is a tropical type of resort. You might want to use some fruit as the new slides (Crusher and Gusher water coasters) are a fruit factory that has been destroyed in the typhoon(hurricane).

I think you will find that tropical papers and embelishments with their bright colors will go better with your pictures. They also have a chark reef you can swim through.

Make sure you we\ar shoes becuase the sidewalks are black and kill your feet if you don't have on shoes.

Try this one

I love the teal and the great stickers to match. I have never been to Typhoon Lagoon but it is on my list for next time.

I have to agree I don't think that paper will work. maybe it would work for accent but not the main back ground. TL is very blue and white. They have a huge wave pool.
We love TL.....so much fun! You will have a total blast!

Now, I think the paper is perfect. There is a TON of greenery in the park which makes floating around the lazy river so great because there is so much shade. They tend to use the blue and white as accent colors, but there is a lot of browns, rusts, greys and greens. Blizzard Beach uses a lot more bright & glossy but Typhoon Lagoon is more muted & natural.

See, that's what I thought. I figured it would be more of a subdued color scheme. I think I will use that green paper for the pictures of us eating lunch at Leaning Palms and this is the paper that I have decided on for the pics in the park. They are more subdued but yet have some blue in it. I think it might work.

I like that paper much better..plus if it doesn't work it will be great for so many other layouts.
It is funny how we all remember it differently....I never really thought about the river but now that I think of it, yellow comes to mind! Maybe cause of all those tubes floating along?????
One thing you could do, order both! I am sure you can use the either paper for other layouts if it doesn't work with TL.

I just went and looked at my pictures....yep it does have lots of greenery. Palms and such.....and more earthy tones in the little kid area, creamish brown colors on the slides.....
