I will be back later today to post my page and to post the awesome PP you are playing for from Tanya of Crossbone Cuts Designs! Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Thanks for a fun challenge! It's hard to believe we are at challenge #200!

I chose to complete challenge #182. Here are the instructions:

Anyway, your challenge is to use a template THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY USED and change it. Flip it, rotate it, move photos around...that sort of thing. Make it work for you in a way you wouldn't have thought of before. We pay good moolah for these things and need to be able to get as much use out of them as we can!! Post your first page with the template in this thread, as well as your adjusted page!
If you never use templates, try one! There are tons of free templates out there. Here is one site that I know of that has free ones you can use.

Here are my two layouts using the pocket templates by Valorie Wibbens:





Here are the two layouts that I used previously with the same template:

Port Orleans French Quarter

Okay... so I picked Challenge #100 which said to pick from all the challenges before for that special challenge! I liked that! So I ended up picking Weekly Challenge #10 which was Mickey's birthday challenge. Way back then. I was not yet on MouseScrappers, so I think I am good with this challenge (11/18-11/24).

Basically - here is the challenge:
Many photos. Three or more!
One and only one solid paper. (use it for your background or an accent paper, whatever you want)
Under the photos, layer some string or ribbons.
Staples. Use exactly two staples on your page. No more, no less.
Eight buttons! Yes, we're going button-crazy. And you can only repeat the same button 4 times.

Blocks of paper. Includes at least 2 blocks of paper.
Date. Take extra time to date your page in a special way.
Alpha. Use an alpha for your title.
Yellow. Include at least 1 yellow paper or element.

I have been wanting to scrap the resort, so I took a stab at it.. and here is what I came up with!!

Sisters: Pure Magic for challenge #200

This is my first time posting and uploading a scrapbook page. Hope I am on track!

I chose Weekly Challenge #167

... to create a page using only 3 colors (not counting your pictures, they can be anything you want). If there are little bits of other colors in some of your elements that's fine, but only if it's a little tiny bit - I really want to be able to see the 3 colors you chose throughout your layout and not many other colors. White doesn't count as one of your colors, so you can use as much of it as you want along with 3 others.

I used Peach, green and blue (OK, so I hope it was ok to use several SHADES of blue!)

Hi! This is my first attempt at a challenge. I have always tweaked pre-designed pages and used only Creative Memories content. This was really fun to branch out and try something new. I'm so glad I found this forum to stretch my creativity and play with all of my Disney pictures!

I chose Challenge #190 - There are 7 leaf clusters going up the tower.
"Our requirements for this challenge are as follow...
1. Choose 3 photos
2. Add some pink, purple and blue any where in your page
3. My girls believe that every page needs a little bling so anything sparkly
4. We want at least 3 pattern papers incorporated in your page
5. We all love summer and would love to see a colorful LO
7. We very important to have 7 of something for their 7th b-day"

Challenge 200

I did challenge #180. This is my first challenge so I had lots to choose from but this really inspired me!
I hope I did this right for the challenge! I think I'm supposed to paste the rules but I'm not sure if I can get back here!
(I did it! now I have to figure out how to get my image in! The life of a newbie)
The theme for this week is DISNEY AFTER DARK. Disney offers so many wonderful things after dark - lights, shows, parades, fireworks. Some of my fondest family memories at Disney happen after dark. Specific guidelines are this:
1) Your photos should be taken either AFTER DARK or IN THE DARK. So this can include both the things I mentioned above and any dark rides.
2) Since darkness is black I'm asking that you use BLACK papers or embellishments on your page.
3) I always put a MICKEY HEAD on my pages, so add one to yours this week.

Thanks for the great challenge! And thanks to Kellybell for the awesome PP!

Although I will say looking through the forum made me realize how many great PPs I've missed out on this summer!

I chose Weekly Challenge #198 hosted by Scrappy Coyote.

Your "RECIPE" for creating your layout is this:
Ingredients which ARE REQUIRED in your layout:
- Three (3) papers (your choice if patterned or solid)
- Three (3) photos (any style - but it must be Disney related)
- Three (3) ribbons (your choice if it is ribbon, ric rac or bow)
- Two (2) frames (your choice if they are around the photos or not)
- Four (4) flowers
- One (1) Title
- Journaling (your choice on length of journaling - must be separate from title)
- Five (5) elements (your choice)

Bonus Toppings! These are NOT required. You may use any of the bonus toppings or none at all.
- You MAY use up to ONE(1) more paper
- You MAY use up to ONE (1) additional photo
- You MAY use up to SIX (6) additional elements

Remember: The INGREDIENTS ARE REQUIRED to be in our layout! You MAY USE the bonus toppings, but please do not exceed the allotted number of options.

Here is my layout:

I used weekly Challenge #180

I'm soooo excited to be hosting my first challenge here on Mousescrappers and I just couldn't wait any longer. Besides, I've got a big day at work tomorrow and a meeting to boot, so I'm not sure if I'd get time to post. So you get it NOW! You still have the full challenge period (until the 16th) to complete your challenge page

Here are the challenge guidelines:
1) Layout should be Disney related
2) Layout should be uploaded to the MouseScrappers Gallery in the Weekly Challenge category and posted in the appropriate forum
3) PLEASE leave love for at least 2 other pages from this challenge. We all like getting love so please spread some around.
4) Please don't use a quick page to fulfill the challenges -that really isn't fair to everyone who created their own page to receive the prize, and makes light of the prize providers work.

Now, on to the fun part: THE CHALLENGE!
The theme for this week is DISNEY AFTER DARK. Disney offers so many wonderful things after dark - lights, shows, parades, fireworks. Some of my fondest family memories at Disney happen after dark. Specific guidelines are this:
1) Your photos should be taken either AFTER DARK or IN THE DARK. So this can include both the things I mentioned above and any dark rides.

3) I always put a MICKEY HEAD on my pages, so add one to yours this week.
