Backstage Magic Scrapbook! - The DIS Discussion Forums

stenogoddess · 10-10-2010, 09:09 PM

Hi everyone! We were was on the April Backstage Magic trip with the podcast crew, and I've just finished my scrapbook and thought I would share it with you all. There are pages of things we did on our own time and our own dime. So if you're wondering if the trip goes to Sunnydale and by the Charmed house, it doesn't!

Ours also did not go to Giffith Park to see Walt's Merry Go Round, so you would have to do that on your own too.

Thanks for everyone who wrote trips reports on this trip. It really helped me plan our trip and make everything just a bit more Magical!

There are SPOILERS in here folks, so don't click the link if you don't want to see them.

If you're thinking about doing this trip, do it! It's totally worth every penny.

Wow! Your photo book looks awesome! I used to make them but they are sooooo time consuming, I just couldn't find the time. Does Shutterfly have those Disney backgrounds? They are so much more fancy now than when I first used to create them. You just inspired me!!! I think I'll find time to work on our Med Cruise photo book.....

You did a really nice job!

I'm glad you liked looking at the book! Shutterfly doesn't do the backgrounds. You have to find and buy those online at places like scrapmatters.com and then put it all together in Photoshop. It took me six months, but it was so worth it!

Thanks for the info!! It looks great!

Great job--fun to browse, very creative!

kristilew · 10-11-2010, 06:52 PM

Awesome job! I love your creativity!

And I'm a little (ok, a LOT) jealous of your follow-through. My pictures from last year's ABD are uploaded to shutterfly, but every time I think about making the photo book, I am daunted by the challenge and the time

Dorisk3 · 10-11-2010, 07:14 PM

Your scrapbook is absolutely beautiful- you should post it over on the creative forums, it is really inspirational!

I'm glad you liked it! Just start the first page and go one page at the time. That's what I do! If I thought about the whole thing I would never get started, and doing it one page at the time still took me six months. It's so worth it in the end!

Wow Lauren, that's really good! You did a great job of using papers and elements that really enhanced your photos.

Looks like an awesome trip!

Absolutely beautiful photobook - and it looks like you had a fabulous time, too!

vpalmer · 10-18-2010, 09:31 AM

Wonderful digital scrapbook! I also make them so I completely appreciate the hard work that goes into a 100 page book! My favorite page is one of the last where you took your favorite shots and made a collage in the shape of Mickey's head. Very creative!

goofyx3 · 10-19-2010, 05:28 AM

Your book is stunning! You should be very proud of yourself. I love the way you made it into "chapters" by each day. Great ideas. Thanks so much for sharing.
