Weekly Challenge #122 (2/15-2/21)
 

Welcome to Weekly Challenge #122!

Scrapbooking began in a time before photos were common. Families 'scrapbooked' bits of ephemera like letters, cards, pieces of clothing and even locks of hair to help preserve their memories.

Your challenge this week is to get back to the origins of scrapbooking and scan one of the paper or other small mementos you brought home from your vacation and use it as an element in your page. If you don't have a decent scanner, take a picture of the item and extract the image for your page. If you absolutely can't do one of these two (but I'd really like you to do one of these two!) you could find an image of the item online and use it. Clip art doesn't count, this should be something you did or could bring home! If you want to do a paper page, you can just stick the item on :D I really want to see you use the item as a page element and not just in another picture on the page.

Some things you could use for this challenge: receipts, menus, napkins, stir sticks, party bracelets, buttons, hotel stationary.....I'm sure there are lots more things people have collected and brought home as vacation mementos, use what you have that's meaningful to you!

I originally made this page for one of the speed scraps but changed it a little when I found one of our party wrist bands to scan/extract and use on the page:

so to recap:
1) create a Disney related page using a scan/pic of some ephemera you picked up on your trip. Quickpages don't count toward weekly challenges!
2) upload to the gallery, post in the appropriate forum thread, and then post here linking to both the gallery and the forum thread
4) leave love for a few of your fellow participants!

For participating in the challenge this week you will receive this DARLING alpha from our very own kelseyll!

What a fun challenge and super cute PP. I'm going to dig through my stash tomorrow while the workers are in my kitchen. Surely I can find something to scan :)

I have so much that I wonder how I'll narrow it down! I have 2 photoboxes of stuff. hmmm....

thanks for the great challenge and cute pp!!!!

I guess there was a reason why I didn't toss out all those receipts and junk from our trip in 2008 .... see, I did need them for something.

:lol2:

I'm in. I love this type of stuff. Let's see what I can find...

Riding up front in the monorail. The kids were given a co-pilot card from the monoral driver I scanned and included.

I scan in everything! It really is an addiction. But here I used the stickers we got from Cast Members, an old ticket with Mickey on it, and the welcome card from our hotel room.

These layouts are so fun to see and have such great ideas!! =)

I got this card in the mail a few weeks after we returned. The artsy Mickey came from the envelope.

You got me up off my bottom and scanning! I've done 1 page and started another with my scanned items. I've had all sorts of intentions to get some scanning done since I started doing digital in Jan 11...but only now scanned items this week! LOL
This is the right side of a page that contains my scanned images of our priority seating card & the participation cards my kids got. Below it is the other side, just because I did it as a 2 page spread and wanted to post them both :)

Animal Kingdom 2009 Kali River Rapids

I used the map as part of the embellishments.

Journaling: Our trip to the Animal Kingdom was full of animal sightings, getting soaked and seeing the Tree of Life. The favorite ride at the park was the Kali River Rapids. Gavin really enjoyed the Kilimanjaro safaris - either riding on the bus or seeing all of the animals. We also found Camp Minnie-Mickey where all the characters were & took some awesome pictures. (with my attempt at mini pics!)

Thank for hosting

I absolutely LOVE to use my memorbilia in my LOs, rather it be in my paper albums or digital ones, so this is a great challenge for me!

Here is my page of my scanned maps and our Park Hopper Passes from our 2009 trip.

Great challenge, Andrea! I love seeing all the layouts. Some of them look like paper layouts!

Thanks so much for the challenge, Andrea! I could not figure out how to extract my button, but I did find the magic eraser and used that for the button :), thanks for challenging me!

Thanks for the Challenge. I've been wanting to scrap these old pics. I did have to extract the tickets from a picture we took in Disneyland. I wish I had them to frame!
