********Here for Speed Scrap #159 with Michelle from Mad for the Mouse!!********
 

Are you Ready?

This is the Prize you're playing for!!
http://i1253.photobucket.com/albums/...159Preview.jpg


Instructions to follow!
Layouts are due Saturday at 11am EST.

1. "I only hope that we don't lose sight of one thing - That it was all started by a Mouse!" Pick up to 3 pictures. HOWEVER, EVERY picture MUST HAVE MICKEY!!!

2. "The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing". Let's get down to business and pick a template to use.

3. "Around here, we don't look backwards for very long, we keep moving forward, opening up need doors and doing new things, because we are curious..." Do something new! Challenge yourself to do that photo treatment or blending technique you never tried. When you post your layout, make sure to tell us what new thing you did.

4. "Ideas come from curiosity". I'm curious to see if you can only use classic Mickey colors on your layout. That means all elements, papers, fonts/alphas must be black, red, white and/or yellow (gold and silver can be used too). The only exception to this is the colors in the photos you use.

5. "If you can dream it you can do it". I dream of having a 2 week trip to my happiest place on earth. Pick 2 types of elements (ribbons, buttons, flowers, etc) and use at least 7 of each to make 2 clusters somewhere on your page. (get it 2 x 7 = 14 days... 2 weeks!)

6. "It seems to me, that we still have a lot of story to tell". Title the layout and then JOURNAL, JOURNAL, JOURNAL... Talk about the feelings that you felt when the photos were taken, or write about the idea for the picture, or explain the reason for the visit to Mickey. Just make sure you write something more than just... "meeting mickey was fun." or something similarly plain. I want to feel like I was there with you! Make sure that you also date the layout

7. "That's the real trouble with the world, too many people grow up." I always thing of Peter Pan and Tink when I hear this quote... add a trail of pixie dust/sparkles to your page and add your shadows!

*your page needs to be Disney-related (or surrounding area parks) and follow the instructions below.
* Post your completed LO's in this thread , and in the appropriate sub-topic forum. Make sure you post the sub-forum link here too.

Oh my goodness, Michelle! You rock-and so do these PPs!!

I am here!

I really like your instructions so far! Great theme using Walt Disney quotes.

I am here! Java is not working right for me. So I am scrapping instead of chatting.

I'm not able to join the chat but LOVE the PP and the bonus PP! Thanks so much for your generosity Michelle!

can;'t get into the chat, but i am here having fun! Thank you for the PP and the bonus PP! They are awesome!

Java doesn't work on my phone
 

Can't get into the chat room from my phone. I had to disappear for a bit. I had a tennis match. Now that I won in the 3rd set, I can head home and rejoin the scrap. Both my favorite obsessions in the same weekend. Other than being at WDW that is hard to beat!

I am here, but cannot get in the chat room :(

I'm here! SOunds like fun! Off to pick my pictures! Great challenge and awesome PP's! THANKS!

Debbie

Oh Michelle I am so sorry I missed the chat :blush:

Thanks for the Bonus
 

That is a great bonus to download. Thanks for creating it for us Melissa.

You are most welcome!

Here is mine. So glad this went together quickly since I'm sleepy. Thanks for the extra time for those Europeans not silly enough to be up at this hour like me :) Also I hope 'day 5' is acceptable for the date:

Here is mine...I will remove the clusters though when I post on facebook as I HATE them (the stars and flower ones). I tried it, and just can't get them to look as nice as when I buy them from people. I won't apologize though...the reason I use the CM software is because I am not overly creative, and so I like things created for me. Enjoyed the speed scrap though...i like most of this page.

Thanks Michelle!

Michelle can we use neutral colors like brown/beige? Also may we use green leaves?
Thanks

Thanks Michelle! That was fun! My new thing is using your new kit.

I just got home to see these instructions. Love them and can't wait to put together my layout. I really need some "happy" therapy right now so pulling out my Disney photos! Be back in a bit with a layout (I hope.)

I made my large picture with a 3d edge.

LOVE the Mickey theme with Walt's quotes! What a great way to give out instructions Michelle! This one was a bit more challenging (especially since you made me try something new!) :) But it was fun! LOVE the PP and the bonus PP! Thanks so much!

Here's my take...I used an action on my photos (which I NEVER do) and I like how it actually made my photos a little more like the colors on the page!

As for something new, I've never felt comfortable layering multiple patterned papers, so here is my try...

Thank you Michelle for a fun challenge, and an awesome pp! And, thank you Melissa for a fun Chef Mickey's Bonus pp!

I did two things I've never done before
1) I matted a photo with a copy of that photo
2) I mixed word bits and text for my journal.

Thanks for the great fun and the goodies.

Thanks Michelle
I was trying a vintage look

I'm never comfortable with clustering, and this really forced me to practice. Thank you!

My "something new" was to leave part of the photo in color while making the rest of it black and white.

Great challenge and such a pretty PP. The star cutouts were new technique. Here's my page.
