Weekly Challenge #142 (7/11-7/17)

[*melidy*]

Hi fellow Mousescrappers! This is my first ever challenge and I’m going to be trying something a little different in an attempt to get your creative juices flowing!

I want you all to recall (or discover) a fun Disney fact. It can be about anything: Disney World in general, a particular ride, a particular park, Walt himself... Anything. I want this to be the inspiration for your page. The fact it’s self doesn’t have to be on your page if you don’t want (there is no journaling requirement), as long as you tell us what the fact was and how you were inspired by it.

I’m obsessed with the amount of detail in the parks and I’m hoping some of you will tell me facts that I don’t know of yet!

To clear up any possible confusion here is my layout:

I was inspired by this fact {It’s a long one}: “Walt’s loved trains from a young age, and when young classed his claim to fame as having an uncle that worked on the Santa Fe’s accommodation train. At the age of 15 he applied to work on the Santa Fe with his brother Roy and then went on to work on various railroads across America, before moving on to carious other posts. However his passion for trains never died and the railroad was one of the first attractions he planned. Walt wanted a train station at the forefront of the Magical Kingdom park Florida as he wanted it to be the first thing the guests saw. Disneyland Paris also has a train station at the front of the part to pay homage to this”.
From that I made this:



Additional rules:
1. Use as many photos/ papers/elements as you wish. However since, this is about Disney’s secrets I want to see at least one hidden Mickey on your page... The harder it is for me to find the better I LOVE finding hidden Mickeys.
2. Leave Love to at least 3 people in the Gallery – it’s always nice to receive love.
3. No double dipping with any other challenges and no use of quick pages to complete the challenge.
4. As usual post in this thread with a link to your layout in the weekly challenge Gallery and post a link to the forum thread where your page goes.

Not only is this my first challenge, it’s also my first ever attempt at designing. So here is the PP you will be playing for... Hope you guys like it and can think of some uses for it!



Hope you guys have fun with this one, I cannot wait to see what you come up with!
