[Scrapping4Him]

oooooo I'm so excited :D

a royal carpet to put before that cool archway - but not in the traditional red color - but instead with multiple colors (the kit's purple/green/orange) - maybe with tassled ends on it

[Scrapping4Him]

a solo ribbon like the ones used in the main kit - with a little bit of twisting to it but not too tight

[Scrapping4Him]

bg paper: a castle wall - in the same style vein as the arch

oh wait - your one paper is already in that color - so maybe a rough textured overlay - to get the effect of an old crumbling stone wall

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: okay I think it's time I go get my eyes checked :rofl: I think your paper has a texture on it :doh:

[Christine]

ummmm sweetie, the name of that paper is BG_OldStoneWall, will that do it for you? :rofl:

[Scrapping4Him]

ummmm sweetie, the name of that paper is BG_OldStoneWall, will that do it for you? :rofl:

:rofl::rofl::rofl: I edited that stupid post 3 times because I kept having lightbulb moments about that paper! I so need to get off this computer today.

[SmilinThyme]

A Jester's hat, a frame of the ribbons in the original kit, tutus in the kit's colors, fairy sparkle, fairy hair, funny gargoyles, paper in harlequin pattern and a little cute bat in the corner... ;-)

[Shana34]

I'd love to see a masquerade mask.

[Shana34]

I love the jester's hat idea. How about a swirly overlay, or glitter swirls?

[butterflyiii]

jester suit patterned buttons!! With matching flowers or butterflies!!!

:tup: with my nick name of course I love those butterflies! LOL

[ebears]

that thingie jesters hold - you know what I mean. LOL

[Shana34]

I'm thinking a sky to see through the archway! :D

ok I have no idea what a jester suit patterned buttons is. Anybody have a picture of this? :rofl:

[Shana34]

I think she means a harlequin pattern. Most jester suits are patterned like that.

[Shana34]

How about some bells like on a jester's suit? Or a joker card?

[LLinkinhoker]

Gold coins like in Robin Hood and Maybe an Old looking tree.

[Shana34]

How about a wall sconce?

[Shana34]

Ooooh wait...enchantment word art! That would look great!

[photo bug]

A white horse, a stone path for him to ride on, a princess tiara, I like the enchantment word art to go along with the hear ye. Might even have a pumpkin and a hay bale, some princess flowers to make a groupie with. (Okay, I have no idea what princess flowers are, but they would be 'girlie' and in the matching colors as the ribbons and have some ribbons to tie them with! :think:)

[photo bug]

How in tar-nation do I make that flair thing large enough to be seen, yet not so large to over whelm the thing???

[Shana34]

How large did you make your original image?

[Christine]

are you uploading to our gallery or trying to put in in photobucket or something, I know some people had trouble with that

[photo bug]

I made it 6"X3" and made it in PSE 7. I don't know what photobucket is. I know I am doing it wrong, or it would turn out. I have tried several ways and they are all too tiny to read. I like your size Christine. and Shana. I tried using the template from the original kit and it was even less readable.

[Shana34]

I started out with my width at 600 by 200 pixels. I didn't resize or anything, so I knew exactly how it was going to look while I was doing it. I used the templates for the slider and grid, etc, but did the rest by eye. Hope that helps. :D

[photo bug]

So I should be using pixels instead of inches??

[Shana34]

Well it will translate the same. I think 600 is 3 inches? and 200 is 1? So if you want to use inches that would be how it would go. :D

[photo bug]

Okay, I redid it again, lets see if it took. If I can read it it did and if not ... back to the drawing board!

[photo bug]

Hummmm, still not right.

[Shana34]

Are you linking from the page where you get your full image? Or the thumbnail page?

[Christine]

yeah start with your image size 600 pixels x 200 pixels, then don't resize. It doesn't matter what resolution you choose. The number of pixels is all that counts.

[Christine]

ok back to suggestions, anybody want to claim the idea to do a little mouse? I think that would be cute in here. :)

[Christine]

feel free to carry on with the discussion on the flair cards though :)

[Shana34]

I think you should do a little mouse! LOL I agree that it would be cute. How about a few ribbons like in the scepter to scatter around the page?

[caraffle]

I jumped the gun and posted this one but forgot to post the link:
