Weekly Challenge #24 (3/3 - 3/9)
 

Hi ya'll! I'm back for my 2nd mouse scrappers challenge. I'm so happy to be here. I hope you like my challenge!

I created this layout for a challenge here... the theme of the layout is simple and probably pretty obvious. I was so thrilled to find out we would get to go BACK to Disney World a second time in only about 6 months! To make it better, it was CHRISTMAS at Disney World. How lucky is that? It's gorgeous at Disney World during the holiday season.

So for your challenge this week, scrap something you did TWICE on a Disney trip. Maybe it was a ride that you loved so much you went back again, or meeting Mickey Mouse twice. Whatever it is, you need TWO photos to represent each time. Be sure your layout tells us what you did twice and why.

(PS, did I mention this layout was PUBLISHED! It was featured in the January issue of Scrapbook News and Review.com)

Participants will receive a free template based off my layout. ONE lucky participant chosen at random will receive a gift coupon to get one of my favorite Disney themed scrap kits. It's a SURPRISE and worth waiting for! Trust me!

I can't wait to see what you come up with. Be sure you post your layout in the proper thread here at Mouse Scrappers. For example, if your layout features a trip to Epcot, Mexico... go to that section and post your layout in the Mexico thread. Be sure and post your credits or a link to your credits in your post below.

Thanks for hosting, Kat.

A couple of reminders for participants...

1. Please upload to the MouseScrappers Gallery (put in the "weekly challenge" category)

2. Please post a linked image in two places: This thread, AND in the appropriate place in the forums (Theme Parks, Resorts, or More Disney Fun and Memories). If you are not sure where to put it, feel free to ask..

3. Please don't use the template from the Template challenge here. i.e. no double dipping ;)

:flowers: while not required, I'd like to encourage you to leave feedback (i.e. "leave love") for some of the other participants. Just click on their linked image and leave a quick comment in the Gallery. I like to see people encouraging others. :yes: You don't need to tell us who you do it for here (I don't want you to feel like you have to prove anything.. nobody's keeping track), just do it at your leisure, when you feel compelled.

Thanks! :wave:

WooHoo Thanks Kat.. I am getting started!:yeah:

We love to see the different faces of the Disney iconic landmarks..here are 2 of Spaceship Earth.

Oooo, I'm going to have to think about this one. Hmm....

Great challenge and thanks for the fab. participation prize. I can't wait to see what everyone did twice!

Thanks for the fun challenge and PP!

Here's mine ... I have only been to Disney twice ... the first time in 1982 and then in 2008. Our next trip July 1, 2010 (3 months and 4 weeks) ...... but whose counting the days .... ME !!!!! :woohoo:

P.S.: Are we all going for Epcot on this one ????? lol !!!!

Kat, just to clarify...is this something that we did twice during the same trip?

I'd like clarification too. I thought you meant scrap something we did twice on one trip, but the first few layouts don't appear to be that. Second look at your layout doesn't appear to be that either, so I'm wonder if I'm mis-reading it?

LOL we are all doing our repeat visits to Spaceship Earth!

Ya I was seeing that, but the instructions say scrap something you did TWICE on a Disney trip. Maybe it was a ride that you loved so much you went back again, so it sounds like it is supposed to be the same trip.

Either or is fine... For me, i went twice in one year so I have photos from two different trips, but if you have photos from one trip, that works great too. Use your creative energy... all entries will get the prize regardless... ;)

I visited Tommy Kirk twice at the D23 convention. That's the only photos I have of the same thing ... so I'm going with that. :cool:

What a great challenge, and I love the pp! Will you be able to provide the .png files for those of us that use SBC+?

Thanks so much!!

Thanks for hosting a fun challenge! We took photos at the fountain two different times, with and without my son. :) We've been trying to take a picture of them at the DHS fountain every year since 2003.

This is a perfect challenge Kat!!! We did a lot of things twice, so I for sure will work on this!!! Great template too and congrats on getting it published!!! Will be back with a LO!

OK - I got one done! About how much we liked Hollywood Studios, so much so we've went two days in a row!

These are shots of my kids from our 2008 trip and our surprise trip in December. It was cool to see how much they've grown in just a little over a year.

I ended up doing both types of "return trips". One was a second trip to WDW and this one was a second trip to a ride in the same Disney vacation.

So Nice we Met her Twice!
 

As soon as I read the challenge I immediately thought of these photos! If you look closely, that is the very same castmember dressed as Belle on two different days!! She actually remembered my girls and addressed them by name! One of my fav memories from this trip! Thanks Kat for giving me a cool challenge to tell this story!:yes:

Thanks - this helped me redo a page that I wasn't happy with!!

I love Rock n Roll Roller Coaster. I not only rode it Twice, but three times all by myself.

We did Test Track twice in one day and then we went back our last day.

Great challenge. I don't normally mix photos from different trips, but I just couldn't help myself with these.

http://www.mousescrappers.com/photos...L-20100303.jpg

YES! :scrapbooking:

Test Track seems to be a ride to go on several times for many people!

Here is my take on it:
http://www.mousescrappers.com/photos...stTrackWeb.jpg

I could not make up my mind what double take to use! We do a lot of characters and Fantasy land rides more than once. It is hard to tell, but the upper and lower pics were taken on different carrousel rides the same night. thank you for a great challenge and PP. I had a lot of fun putting this together, I even decided to throw in a hidden Mickey.

Journal reads:
Alex loves the Carrousel! I think it is her very favorite ride in all of Disney. She insisted Grandpa ride it with her. They had a lot of fun looking at all the decorations and talking. When the ride was over Alex just kept yelling “again, again!” Grandpa had had enough, so Mommy and Daddy took her back on.

This is my first Mousescrappers challenge so I hope I get this right!! Thanks Kat for a fun challenge. I used two different pics of my son with Aurora--one when he was 6 and one from last summer when he was 13. Journalling says "Aurora has always been Brian's favorite princess. If he was just a little older, I think Aurora might ditch Prince Phillip for him!"

This was a challenge because our girls are so young, we try to do as much as we can before sensory overload (ie meltdown) kicks in. Doubles of anything are slim pickins! We did go twice to WDW last year. The only park we had photopass pics from both trips was Epcot. It wasn't until we got home until I saw the lovely Flower and Garden picture with DD3 trying to choke DD1! :ack: It was a challenge to put both Flower and Garden Festival with Christmas on the same LO!

Thanks Kat! This was fun.
