Weekly Challenge #89 (6/8 - 6/14)
 

Welcome to Weekly Challenge #89!!!

For me it really are the little things that make Disney special, so the theme of this weekly challenge is to scrap about the little things in a land or area of one of the parks. For example: Adventureland, Pixar Place, Rafiki’s Planet Watch, Germany or Main street just to name a few! Your pictures have to show the attributes, scenery or details that are typical for the land your scrapping about. I don’t want to see any scrapping about an attraction, a show, a character or a parade!

Here are the other instructions you have to follow:

1. I want to see 2 seperate clusters. Both clusters need to have the
following elements:

• 1 picture
• 2 ribbons/ricracs
• 2 strings
• 4 flowers
• A title
• Some kind of greenery/foliage
• 2 paperstrips
• 1 frame
• 2 buttons/brads
• Stitching

you may skip two of the above dots if you want! The numbers of
elements listed are the minimum, you may add more and other elements if
you wish!
2. Show me at least one cutout!
3. Because the pp is a date element pack I want to see a date!!
4. Tomorrow is Donald Ducks 77th birthday, let’s celebrate that by adding an
element or a color that has something to do with Donald!
5. Add journaling if you wish and shadow!

I made a tutorial about cut outs, you can check it in this thread. It's splitted into three subjects: Element & text cut outs, marquee cut outs and shape cut outs. TanyaH666 made a tutorial a while ago about clustering which you can find in this thread.

Just a little note: If something doesn't succeed on your page, please don't be discouraged and just post your layout!! I know I made a difficult challenge :whistle: and I don't want anyone to be discouraged and don't get that pp!!

The general rules:
1) LO should be Disney (or nearby theme park) related.
2) It must be uploaded to the MouseScrappers Gallery in the Weekly Challenge category before the deadline.
3) Your layout must be posted in two (2) places: in the challenge thread (here) and in the appropriate forum thread, and please don´t forget to put this last link in your post here!
4) And try to leave some love for other pages in this challenge. We all like encouragement!!!!!

This is what I made:

Patty, this sounds like so much fun! I'm off to work on my layout! Thanks for hosting and love that PP!

Thank you Patty and Keystone scraps, it looks great!

OOO, great challenge. I know just which layout to do. We took tons of photos of just Fantasyland since we knew they were going to change it. I'll see what I can do with those.

Super busy this week with end of the school year stuff but that PP is a must have. Gonna do my best to get it done.

Great challenge Patty and thanks Keystone Scraps for the PP....The only problem, I've never done a cut-outs :confused:, but I guess I'm going to learn how to do it....:thumbsup:

Gee wiz Patty!!! When you have a challenge... you make it a challenge!!! I needed a really big thinking cap for this one!!

I have my LO done.... but since I used an unreleased kit... I'm going to wait and post it Friday.

I gotta say though.... THANKS for making me work! I LOVE my page!!!!

I'm glad to hear that! Can't wait to see what you come up with!

I really hope you can make it! Good luck with the end of the schoolyear!

You're very welcome!

I hope it's going to work out! In the first post I added a link with a tutorial about cut-outs, hopefully that will help you!

Great to hear that you love your page, I ca'n't wait to see it!!!! I hope that i did'n't make the challenge to difficult!

You're very welcome!!!

Ooh, great challenge, Patty! I can't wait to get something done for it! Your details are perfect!

Great minds must think alike- we must have been on the same wavelength with the cutouts! :thumbsup:

Thanks for the awesome PP, Paula and Melissa!

Great challenge Patty and super handy PP, thanks Paula and Melissa! I just make my LO (will post it next Friday as it is a new release), I'm loving the cutouts these days! I really enjoyed your challenge!!!

I'm a little behind, but I have to do this challenge! Great instructions, looks like fun! And the PP is another home run, Paula & Melissa!

Thanks Patty!! I love challenges that are specific...it's just like following a recipe and I am a total by the book type person!! haha

Wow, Patty! You really went all out on this challenge... I'm going to need to make myself a checklist to make sure I have it all. :D Off to see what I can come up with.

Here's mine! I may have missed a couple of things. It was so hard to keep track! :lol:

Thanks for the challenge, Patty and also to Keystone Scraps! I'm so glad you had us include a cut out. I've liked them and never realized how easy they are to do. Your instructions were great! Making the cut outs were actually the easy part. Trying to get everything else on 8.5x10 was the hard part. :)

can anyone tell me if it is possible to do the cut outs in SBC? Thanks for any help

Yep.... they are very easy in SBC!
this is the simplest way... to make a basic (non-custom) shape cutout!

If you want a basic shape, select your paper layer that you want to make the cut out in .

The go to the cut and fill ribbon... select square/circle or the 'shape' button.

Cut out your shape

Then select the paper with the shape cut out... and go to format, and add a shadow to the paper.

ta-da!

Okay, well I started this challenge before reading thouroughly:whistle: I'm not sure how much of the criteria I met but this one took me all day and I'm done so I want to post it anyway:):thanks: If I have time I'll try again with actually following the directions:rolleyes:

My page features the decor on Main Street in Autumn.

Thanks for helping out Paula!

I think I managed to get everything except the paper strips in. My little bit of Donald is the blue string and clip connecting the clusters together.

Oops, I didn't read the paragraph before the 1-5 instructions so my pictures are of fairy godmother, sorry! Thank you for the challenge, don't know exactly how I made the cut out in PSE 8 but i finally did. I know I used the marquee tool and some thing on my keyboard :) command G maybe? Thanks for hosting and for Keystone scraps PP!http://www.mousescrappers.com/photos...llenge-_89.jpg

I left off the frame and 2 strings. The cut out was interesting. Might have to keep that one in my stash of techniques.

My photoshop just let me down when I was almost done with my page :( That PP is so awesome, but now I'm not sure if I get my page done on time. Got to try it!
