What do I do with the park map scrapbook paper?

[whogirl'smom]

I purchased the Capture the Magic pack of paper last Oct. at Disney and am now finally getting around to scrapping that trip. I loved the pages that are like a map of each park, but now that I'm laying pictures on them, they seem so busy!

What has everyone else done with these pages if you have used them? Can you show me pictures of your layouts? My mind seems stuck in neutral on this!

I used it as the title page to that section of the park. I only added the title, date, one element, and one pic. The pic I placed the pic over an attraction we didn't visit. Here's my MGM Title page from Oct '07 (someday I will finish this trip album, lol!)

I see what you mean about the paper kind of being busy... it's cool though! What if you use small photos (wallet size or smaller), and post them toward the edges of your layout (like the way Heather did). Then draw a straight line from the photo to the place on the map where the photo was taken? (make a dot on the map) Then it might feel like the viewer is zooming in on the fun in that location. Maybe no more than one photo in each 'land' or it will be too busy

After seeing the paper,
I remember someone used their extra maps and made sign posts that told about the attractions found in that area....

Let me look around and see if I can find it on here...it was really neat!!!

Nancy I love that idea. I am so scraplifting it. I have that paper too and haven't figure out what to do... I found a couple of pics from far away where someone is on ride that I will keep small and use near the ride on the map. If I ever get the pages done, I will post it.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Can't wait to see it... I needed a refresher..as I have many extra park maps, and I bought those pages in 2004 or 2005.... I need to dig them out for my 2008 book!!!
I'll post when I complete mine!

I neeed those pages! Why didn't I see them anywhere in the World last November? (Or the previous September, or November in 2005?).

Don't you know, papers know when you are looking for them and go into hiding!
The cardinal paper (core-dinations)... I found it at Ally Scraps last week...the last place I would have thought of because she was all about Bazzill the last time I was in.. I went in on a whim..and she had the mother load! Go figure!

 

[morgansmom2000]

Figures!

I haven't used the maps in my scrapping, I used them for backgrounds for my pin collection. But when I had a piece of paper that I didn't want to cover, this is what I did with it. By cutting it in half, and using one half per page, it left me room to put pictures on the sides without covering it.

Thank you so much for a great idea! That is sooo cute! Surely, I can find the map I saved here somewhere....

Too weird, are you peeking in my window? That is EXACTLY what I have laid out on the table to see how it looks. Spooky!

I love everyone's ideas and since there are four park map papers, I can try each one. Thank you all for unlocking my brain!

Glad we could help!! Hope you can post a photo for our inspiration!!!!

The only way to get them is to buy the book of scrapping pages- there are 40 pages and it sold for about $15 when I got it- it includes the 4 park maps, pages with a background of each parks icons (in various colors with the little icons in a deeper shade), small world pages, and other various pages as such- most of them are tone on tone in blues, oranges, purples, and reds but not in the true tone more of grey or brown undertone.

Ahh, maybe that's why I didn't see them. I may have to send my sister over to pick them up the next time she's there

 

[ZeroToHero]

Where do they sell those? I didn't see them anywhere when I went!

Well, I happen to have a complete set of 4 that I am never going to use. One of you is welcome to it. I can return it with your resort swap. Do you want me to flip a coin or do you have a better idea?

I haven't been to WDW since Feb, but at that time, they sold that paper pack all over the place. For the one of you that doesn't get mine, I'm happy to check it out in however many days it says in my ticker and pick up a paper pack for you if they still have them. Some of the paper is good, and some is kind of funky, but I've I've used a majority of it so it was probably worth the cost.
