Weekly challenge #200 (9/4 - 9/10)
 

Can you believe we are on weekly challenge #200?!?!?

http://www.mousescrappers.com/photos..._wc_200_Ad.jpg

In honor of the 200th Weekly Challenge I wanted to do a little recap of the awesome challenges that came before, sooo...

Your Challenge is to go back through the last 99 previous weekly challenges (#101 - #199) and pick one to do that you haven't done before! So if you joined after the challenges started or if there were just a few weeks where you didn't have the time, supplies, knowledge, or pics to complete them, now is your chance! I don't think there is anyone who has done every challenge, so there should be plenty of opportunity to find a weekly challenge you haven't completed before.

To make it all official, here is what you need to do:
1. Choose a weekly challenge that you haven't completed before and complete it using the original hostess' requirements (I will be checking, so don't double dip!)
2. In your post in this thread you need to copy and paste the challenge # you are completing as well as the original instructions so we can all see!
3. Post a link to your layout in the weekly challenge Gallery
4. Post a link to the forum thread where your page goes.

Here is the page I did and the challenge I used so you have an example:

Weekly Challenge #110 by sarahorton
M - is for Mat. Mat, mask, or mount your main photo.
A - is for attach. Attach a hidden mickey to your page.
G - is for glitz. Glam up your page with glitter or gold
I - is for interview. Write your journaling interview style by answering a question.
C - is for center. Center something on your page.

Makes sense, right?!?

For participating, you will receive this AWESOME paper set generously donated by Kellybell designs. In the words of Stacey - this is a serious Disney Must Do for your stash!

And remember, you won't be eligible to receive the original weekly challenge prize for the challenge you chose, but getting this amazing prize from Kellybell makes up for it I think

It's almost time for vacation for me, so you challenge needs to be uploaded and completed by 10pm PT on Friday the 13th to get the participation prize. I will sending out prizes the week of the 16th.

Can't wait to see what challenge you chose!

WOW 200 weekly challenge's woohoo MouseScrappers! Great challenge Andrea! Kelly your rocked that PP :yeah: I can't wait to play :scrapbooking:

Here is the original challenge:

Weekly Challenge #180 (April 10-16)
The theme for this week is DISNEY AFTER DARK. Disney offers so many wonderful things after dark - lights, shows, parades, fireworks. Some of my fondest family memories at Disney happen after dark. Specific guidelines are this:
1) Your photos should be taken either AFTER DARK or IN THE DARK. So this can include both the things I mentioned above and any dark rides.
2) Since darkness is black I'm asking that you use BLACK papers or embellishments on your page.
3) I always put a MICKEY HEAD on my pages, so add one to yours this week.

Here is the original challenge: Weekly Challenge #194 (7/24 - 7/30)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Good morning! I totally flaked and forgot to post this weeks challenge last night! Since its the summer time and I like to have lots of lazy days, I am going to make this weeks challenge fairly easy! I want you to scrap about something that reminds you of summer at Disney. It could be about the beach, or ice cream, or even flip flops. Just make it something summery. I will be back later today to post my page and to post the awesome PP you are playing for from Tanya of Crossbone Cuts Designs! Can't wait to see what you come up with!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is my first ever digital scrapbook page! When I saw the PP, I knew that I had to make an attempt! It is so cute (and from my favorite designer)! If I have not completed the requirements, please let me know.

I did not use a quick page, but I did use some word art that was a part of a freebie...hope that is OK. This kit and the freebie are from Kellybell.

I have been a paper scrapper for years and have collected digital kits and freebies for ~ a year.

These pictures are from our last trip to WDW in April 2013. It is not quite Summer, but it was hot enough to be Summer, as you can tell from the top photo!

Weekly Challenge #107 (10/19 -10/25)
For this week's challenge, I wanted to keep things simple for you. And, of course, in the spirit of our Halloween-related challenges, I’ve devised just a few easy steps for you below.

B – Show me some beads, scatters, or splats on your LO.
O – Place your photos or papers on opposite sides of your page.
O – Let's see some orange on your LO. A little or a lot!

Here is my page -

This is my first challenge. I hope I did everything correctly. I chose Weekly Challenge #162 (11/28-12/4).

1. Use 1 large photo (and no more than 2 more other photos- making a total of 3 photos at the most)
2. Let your picture(s) speak for itself. NO JOURNALING (You can use a title but it needs to be 5 words or less and a date, but that's it)
3. I'm a glitteraholic, so add some glitter somewhere on the page.
4. It wouldn't be a MS challenge without a hidden Mickey. I have 3 children so please hide 3.
5. And......How about a scatter of some kind.
6. Layout must be Disney related
7. Please upload your layout to the Weekly Challenge Gallery, then post in this thread AND the appropriate forum
And while not a rule, please no quick pages, and leave so love for other participants.

I LOVED this idea! I went back and chose the challenge from my birthday week :)
Weekly Challenge #159 (11/7 – 11/13)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This week’s challenge is to create a layout that is inspired in some way by this picture from the World of Color


(I am not sure how to get the picture here, but here is the link to the challenge
http://www.mousescrappers.com/forums...ad.php?t=12390

and here is my take - I have this large picture of the fountains in EPCOT and was inspired by the spouts of water at the bottom. I wanted to do a large background photo (which I LOVE the look of, but am not sure I've gotten the knack of it yet. I've done a few, and I do think this is a little bit of an improvement over those :). thanks for the practice!)

I used the instructions from #187:
1. Choose at least two photos and place these in the top half of your page!
2. Choose at least three background papers and layer for your background.
3. Let's use one circle somewhere in your layout
4. Let's use three (3) ribbons on your layout.

I loved that one, too! Thanks!

Thanks for a fun challenge! It's hard to believe we are at challenge #200!

I chose to complete challenge #182. Here are the instructions:

Anyway, your challenge is to use a template THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY USED and change it. Flip it, rotate it, move photos around...that sort of thing. Make it work for you in a way you wouldn't have thought of before. We pay good moolah for these things and need to be able to get as much use out of them as we can!! Post your first page with the template in this thread, as well as your adjusted page!
If you never use templates, try one! There are tons of free templates out there. Here is one site that I know of that has free ones you can use.

Here are my two layouts using the pocket templates by Valorie Wibbens:

Weekly Challenge #7 http://www.mousescrappers.com/forums...ead.php?t=3476
- Please use 3 Shiney items on your page. EX: staples, glitter, beads, hinges, clips. As long as it is or was at one time shiney in any way, shape or form, it will work.
- Please add 2 ribbons, strings, and/or stitches to your page.
-Please add 1 animal or insect (and YES, Mickey's head counts!)

Weekly Challenge #189 (06-12-13 till 06-18-13)
________________________________________
Welcome to this week's challenge. Since I completely forgot that I should host this challenge, I decided to ask my daughter what kind of challenge she would like to see!
So her it is, her challenge, all about her favorite character.... STITCH!!

Here are your instructions:
S: something summer-ish, could be anything. (Well, maybe not Christmas, unless you've celebrated that event in Hong Kong).
T: use a template.
I: 'I love'..., scrap it!
T: add at least 10 things (papers, elements, photos, your choice), more is allowed. Don't forget about your shadows, journaling (if needed), etc.
C: choose 1 color as your main color, use whatever you need more.
H: a big hooray, add something that says/shouts 'hooray' to you.

Port Orleans French Quarter
 

Okay... so I picked Challenge #100 which said to pick from all the challenges before for that special challenge! I liked that! So I ended up picking Weekly Challenge #10 which was Mickey's birthday challenge. Way back then. I was not yet on MouseScrappers, so I think I am good with this challenge (11/18-11/24).

Basically - here is the challenge:
Many photos. Three or more!
One and only one solid paper. (use it for your background or an accent paper, whatever you want)
Under the photos, layer some string or ribbons.
Staples. Use exactly two staples on your page. No more, no less.
Eight buttons! Yes, we're going button-crazy. And you can only repeat the same button 4 times.

Blocks of paper. Includes at least 2 blocks of paper.
Date. Take extra time to date your page in a special way.
Alpha. Use an alpha for your title.
Yellow. Include at least 1 yellow paper or element.

I have been wanting to scrap the resort, so I took a stab at it.. and here is what I came up with!!

I Used Weekly Challenge 29
 

"Hi Mousescrappers!

I'm Susan and I'm hosting the challenge this week.

Spring is in full bloom where I live. I just love Spring! It's my favorite time of year and also my favorite time to go to Disney World. We went to Disney over Spring Break in March and were able to see the beautiful flowers and topiaries at Epcot for the International Flower & Garden Festival. Your challenge this week is to create a layout that is inspired in some way by the Flower & Garden Festival photos below: "

I was inspired by the greens, blues, and purples in one of her photos. The colors immediately reminded me of a special photo, and this is the result:

Fun challenge Andrea. I chose weekly challenge #169 hosted by Jessica which was to redo a layout that was completed during the Scrap Marathon

Here is the original (made without a template - oh the horror)

Sisters: Pure Magic for challenge #200
 

This is my first time posting and uploading a scrapbook page. Hope I am on track!

I chose Weekly Challenge #167

... to create a page using only 3 colors (not counting your pictures, they can be anything you want). If there are little bits of other colors in some of your elements that's fine, but only if it's a little tiny bit - I really want to be able to see the 3 colors you chose throughout your layout and not many other colors. White doesn't count as one of your colors, so you can use as much of it as you want along with 3 others.

I used Peach, green and blue (OK, so I hope it was ok to use several SHADES of blue!)

3. My girls believe that every page needs a little bling so anything sparkly
4. We want at least 3 pattern papers incorporated in your page

I did challenge #180. This is my first challenge so I had lots to choose from but this really inspired me!
I hope I did this right for the challenge! I think I'm supposed to paste the rules but I'm not sure if I can get back here!
(I did it! now I have to figure out how to get my image in! The life of a newbie)
The theme for this week is DISNEY AFTER DARK. Disney offers so many wonderful things after dark - lights, shows, parades, fireworks. Some of my fondest family memories at Disney happen after dark. Specific guidelines are this:

I used weekly Challenge #180

I'm soooo excited to be hosting my first challenge here on Mousescrappers and I just couldn't wait any longer. Besides, I've got a big day at work tomorrow and a meeting to boot, so I'm not sure if I'd get time to post. So you get it NOW! You still have the full challenge period (until the 16th) to complete your challenge page

Here are the challenge guidelines:
1) Layout should be Disney related
2) Layout should be uploaded to the MouseScrappers Gallery in the Weekly Challenge category and posted in the appropriate forum
3) PLEASE leave love for at least 2 other pages from this challenge. We all like getting love so please spread some around.
4) Please don't use a quick page to fulfill the challenges -that really isn't fair to everyone who created their own page to receive the prize, and makes light of the prize providers work.

Now, on to the fun part: THE CHALLENGE!
The theme for this week is DISNEY AFTER DARK. Disney offers so many wonderful things after dark - lights, shows, parades, fireworks. Some of my fondest family memories at Disney happen after dark. Specific guidelines are this:
1) Your photos should be taken either AFTER DARK or IN THE DARK. So this can include both the things I mentioned above and any dark rides.
