Sunday Funday - Word Search

Morning, ladies!  I must say that I have no idea why some of you had trouble with the copying and pasting of last week's trivia quiz. I do apologize for that!  Let's see if I can get it copied here for the answers. Oddly enough, it copied into the post. It even allowed me to do the answers in the post. When I went to preview, nothing. I think I'll avoid that method in the future! That said.. let's see what I can figure out now! Not perfect, but I think this will work. 

• "I live under the sea and have two eel friends; I will give you your desire if you have something to lend." Who am I?  
• URSULA, the sea witch, gives Ariel sea legs in exchange for her voice. Once Ariel is on land, Ursula goes back on her word and takes human form to try and steal Prince Eric away! Ursula is a sneaky one!

• "If I don't scare you, then surely my horrible taste in fashion will!" Who am I? 
• Surely one of the most underhanded of the baddies, CRUELLA DE VIL acts as a friend to Anita and Jim and then snatches their puppies right from underneath their noses! Cruella's obsession over Dalmatian fur and her black and white hair make her number one among the "Fashion Don'ts" in villainy.

• "If you are deemed the Fairest of Them All,' watch out for my apple which may lead to your downfall." Who am I? 
• The first of the evil ladies, THE EVIL QUEEN is definitely the vainest one. She was willing to kill her stepdaughter, Snow White, just so that she could be the prettiest woman in all the land. The Queen is so persistent that she was willing to transform herself into a hag; and she would have succeeded too, if it weren't for those darned dwarfs!

• "I want to be the greatest sorcerer in the land, but when I become a genie my plans are foiled when I'm buried in the sand!" Who am I? 
• JAFAR is the Sultan's assistant who has his eyes on the Sultanate and Princess Jasmine. With the help of his annoying parrot, Iago, he takes control of the palace and then Genie. Only when he wishes himself into a genie is Aladdin able to trap him into his lamp for hopefully eternity. He later escapes in "The Return of Jafar."

• "I am a notorious pirate who had two good hands, until a nasty crocodile came along and ruined my plans." Who am I? 
• CAPTAIN HOOK is one of the more famous baddies because of the hook on his hand. A hungry crocodile ate his hand, but Hook knows when he is coming along because the animal also ate a clock which ticks when it is coming along. Hook is always trying to defeat Peter Pan, but meets his end when he and Peter sword fight and Peter lets him fall into the crocodile's open jaws.

• "I am a very rich widow with two eligible girls, but my stepdaughter makes me want to hurl!" Who am I? 
• LADY TREMAINE may not have any magical powers, but her cruel treatment of Cinderella is still very sinister. Jealous of Cinderella from the start, Lady Tremaine makes her nothing better than a slave, hoping the beautiful young maiden will never have the opportunity to one up her own daughters, Anastasia and Drizella. She is a very greedy woman, and stops at nothing for the opportunity to move up in social status.

• "With transformation powers and a raven for a pet, I doom a princess to death before the sun sets." Who am I?    
• In my opinion, MALEFICENT is the most evil villain of them all. Maleficent is an extremely jealous fairy who places a curse on Princess Aurora because she did not receive an invite to the party. She has goons as her henchmen, but her raven is her closest companion and does some of her dirty work. She later captures the prince and and even transforms into a dragon to keep him from saving Princess Aurora, but he stabs the sword of truth through her heart and kills her.
• The actress who voiced Maleficent, Eleanor Audley, also voiced Lady Tremaine
• I think everyone knows that Maleficent is MY personal favorite Disney character!

• "I am as charming and handsome and good-looking as can be, but I need a wife who is as perfect as me!" Who am I? 
• GASTON, the vainest of the male villains, knows that he is the most attractive man in his town, but he also has no brains. He chases after Belle in the attempt to get her to be his wife, but she is disgusted with him. Like any other villain, he can not see to the heart, and attempts to kill the Beast just because he is hideous. Gaston finally meets his demise when he loses his footing on the ceiling of the Beast's castle.

• "I love the color purple and with my appearance I'm smitten, I want to be emperor but am turned into a kitten." Who am I?  
• One of the more interesting Disney villains, YZMA is very smart, skilled at chemistry, and has a burning desire to be the emperor by any means possible, even killing Kuzco. Of course, that plan goes wrong, and Kuzco is turned into a llama. But she gets her comeuppance at the end when she is accidentally transformed into a kitten by one of her own potions. The voice of Yzma was Eartha Kitt, who passed away December 25, 2008.

• "I'm greedy and cruel with big red hair, when I find the Devil's Eye I do not intend to share." Who am I?     
• MADAME MEDUSA grabs the young orphan Penny and takes her down to the Everglades in the Devil's Bayou where she hopes to find The Devil's Eye, a huge diamond that has never been discovered. Of course, she treats Penny horribly and makes Penny risk drowning to get the diamond for her. She has two pet alligators that later turn on her after Penny and her animal friends attack Medusa and escape.

Again, the average score for this particular quiz was 8 out of 10. You all are above average!! I almost forgot to announce the winner!! Congratulations goes to Stacey1!! Coupons were sent out last night for everyone.

So I had this idea! We've done two trivia quizzes now. Princesses and Villains. Let's take all those answers and put them into a Word Search!

Click somewhere in the Word Search Puzzle and you will automatically download a JPG version. I would appreciate if you would just draw lines rather than trying to circle. Once you have solved the Word Search, go ahead and save it, then email it back to me at coyotelady(at)gmail(dot)com by Friday, June 5, 2015 at 9:00 PM Eastern Time. Everyone that plays along will receive a $1 coupon. Everyone with the correctly completed Word Search will be placed in a random list selector and one person will be chosen to win a $10 coupon to Connie's store. Email me with any questions. (Please note that the list of words does NOT download.)

Happy Mother's Day

Hey everyone!  Hope all the mom's out there had a marvelous day today.  I am dreadfully sorry for being so late to post today.  And I have tried several times to pull together something.  And failed just as many.

The week before iNSD, I ran a puzzle using a layout by CindyB, titled Anything Is Possible.

Correctly identified by all who participated!!  Cindy used the Wings of Hope Bundle and Word Art. I loved her blending.  All coupons were mailed out on April 26th. Heather Higgs was the randomly selected winner. Congrats, Heather!!

Looking for Anything Is Possible in the gallery, I found a couple layouts. So if you all don't mind another jigsaw puzzle, I think I can put that together for you.

Like the last one,  I would like for you to solve the puzzle and then email me the kit(s) used to create the layout!  Hint: the layout is in the Gotta Pixel gallery.   You should email your answer to me at coyotelady(at)gmail(dot)com by Friday, May 15, 2015 at 9 PM Eastern Time.  Like always.. everyone who plays along with me will receive a $1 coupon to Connie's store. Everyone with the correct response will be placed into the list randomizer and one lucky duck will receive a $10 coupon to Connie's store.

Sunday Funday

Seems we have to wind up our April 12th puzzle, which was a hidden elements layout.  Here's the solution to the Pooh Bear layout.  The random winner was Heather Higgs. Congratulations, Heather!
All of your coupons were sent out last week.

I do apologize for disappearing last weekend.  Suffice to say, it's been a week!  Started out a weekend, then turned into a week.  And now I have a boo-boo wrist.  The great thing that came out of last week - I am getting a health care companion! Yep! I ordered a Baymax from the Disney Store.  have you all seen Big Hero 6 yet?

Since I have this boo-boo wrist, we will be doing another jigsaw puzzle this week. Part of me really wanted to do a Baymax game, and maybe I will yet!  Only as a hidden element puzzle. For now, we have a little jigsaw puzzle for your Sunday morning enjoyment.

Like the last one,  I would like for you to solve the puzzle and then email me the kit(s) used to create the layout!  Hint: the layout is in the Gotta Pixel gallery.   You should email your answer to me at coyotelady(at)gmail(dot)com by Friday, May 20, 2015 at 9 PM Eastern Time.  Like always.. everyone who plays along with me will receive a $1 coupon to Connie's store.

You all know that NSD is coming up!  I have no idea what surprises Connie may have in store for us. So I am not absolutely sure I will be doing a post next weekend.  But no worries. You know we always get the coupons out no matter what!  Wishing you all a great week and an ever better NSD!

Sunday Funday - Hidden Mickeys at last!

You have asked for them, so this week we are doing an Hidden Mickey Layout!  The kit I used is {Hues} Gorgeous Golds.  It went so well with Pooh Bear!!  Okay, you caught me!  The Word Art is NOT from {Hues} Gorgeous Golds. The word art is from Main Street Magic.

That would be my lovely daughter, Chrissy.  And her stuffed Figment.  On her last vacation, Figment was her "photo bomb" in many of her pictures.  Figment saw lots of things at Disney World!! Poor Bear tried to put the snatch of Figment. I didn't have room for the photo where Pooh was waving Figment in front of Chrissy's face. Interaction with the characters can really be lots of fun!

It has been awhile since we had a Hidden Mickey so let's recap the rules.  If you click on the layout, you'll be able to download a full size (3600x3600) jpg for a closer look.  Your mission is to find the five (5) Hidden Mickeys, circle them in a color that stands out (please!) and then email your answer to me, coyotelady(at)gmail(dot)com.

In order to be in the random drawing for the $10 coupon, you will need to find all 5 of the Hidden Mickeys.  Everyone who enters will receive a $1 coupon.  You'll be glad to know that I didn't go less than 85% opacity on any of the Mickeys this layout.  The full size file should download automatically. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me an email.

I guess you want to know about last week now.  The layout was created by tiggernjen using Project 2015 April!  Everyone answered correctly!!  And yes, the Easter Bunny does visit Disney World!

The randomizer has chosen our winner of last week's puzzle!  Drum roll please.........

Congratulations to DJ Whiting!! 

You are the winner of the $10 coupon to Connie's store.  I will be sending out coupons Saturday evening.  Happy hunting. Wishing you all a wonderful week.

Sunday Funday!

Happy Easter to all those who celebrate!  We hid plastic eggs filled with paper strips of what she receives for finding that egg all around.  We do this so the dogs don't eat the eggs! How do you all deal with Easter Egg hunts and dogs?

I'm sure you all recognize this as the layout from last week's Jigsaw Puzzle.  Walk Like A Duck by tiggernjen.  This little display was found in Camp Minnie in Animal Kingdom, Walt Disney World. Sadly, if you haven't seen it, you won't. That area is already under construction to make way for Avatar Land, which is scheduled for opening in late 2017.  I will miss Camp Minnie. 

After running all of you through the randomizer, congratulations go to Withnuts who will be receiving this week's $10 coupon to Connie's store.  

On to this week's Jigsaw Puzzle!  Like the last one,  I would like for you to solve the puzzle and then email me the kit(s) used to create the layout!  Hint: the layout is in the Gotta Pixel gallery.   You should email your answer to me at coyotelady(at)gmail(dot)com by Friday, April 10, 2015 at 9 PM Eastern Time.  Like always.. everyone who plays along with me will receive a $1 coupon to Connie's store.

I know I said I would move on to something different. But you all seem to like these Jigsaws so much.  Next week, will be Hidden Elements! I am going to make one early in the week to be ready.  And, as requested, there will be more than just one or two elements to find!  Ask and you shall receive. I aim to please!  Have a wonderful week!!

Sunday Funday! It's been awhile since we had a Hidden Element!

It's that time of week again!  Time to have a little fun.  So did you all love last week's jigsaw puzzle? The photo really was from Disney World. Just can't tell you which restaurant at this point!  There are a number of Disney restaurants that serve awesome turkey dinners!  Liberty Tree Inn comes to mind.

So here is the image used last week. The only thing missing is stuffing!!  I put all of your entries into the List Randomizer and this week's winner is KAREN ROBINSON!  Congratulations, Karen.

For this week, I have used Connie's "Santa's Helper" to create a layout.  I have hidden two elements from "Santa's Helper" in this layout.  Just two!  Can you believe that?? It's true!  You need to find both of those elements!  Here's the layout, which is one of the many, many trees that can be seen around Disney World at this time of year.

If you think you need to see this layout at full size (3600 x 3600), you can click here to download the full size image.  TWO ELEMENTS!   I must be in the holiday spirit or something!   Since it's been awhile since we had a hidden element (or Mickey), circle the two elements and return the image to me at coyotelady(at)gmail(dot)com by Friday, December 5th at 9 PM Eastern time. Everyone who submits the correct answers will receive a $1 coupon to Connie's store.  I'll place everyone with correct answers into the List Randomizer and one lucky person will receive a $10 coupon.

I have to apologize to Glori.  I must have been interrupted while sending out coupons last week.  I logged on to find Glori's email still sitting in the Draft section.  I was mortified!  Glori is scheduled to be a Guest CT in December.  BUT... I already made a note on my calendar to send her a $1 coupon to make up for the one I missed.  I really am so very sorry, Glori.   If anyone doesn't receive a coupon one week, don't be shy!!  Drop me an email or track me down on Facebook. Anything!  I really do try my best to get those coupons out to everyone.  So don't hesitate!  

With December quickly approaching, who all has been decorating for the holiday??

Sunday Funday! New Hidden Mickey Layout!

Just the other day we were tearing another page off the calendar. Can you believe it is already August?  This year is just flying by.  One thing I would like to know from our readers - who went to DisneyLand or DisneyWorld this year?  Inquiring minds want to know!  Leave a comment below, please.

As for the jigsaw puzzle last week, you all did great!  Again, new names participated. I am always so happy to see new names and hope you make my little game a regular for your Sunday internet travels.

Here is the kit I put through the jigsaw puzzle maker.  Everyone sent me the correct answer: Project 2014 May: Life of Adventure.  You all rock!  Better be careful or I'll add some pieces to that puzzle maker.  I bet you are wondering who the lucky duck is this week?  Drumroll please....  KendiRN70!
Congratulations.  All coupons were sent out last evening.

It's time for another Hidden Mickey Search.  Still feeling a little guilty over my last hidden puzzle, I promise you I never touched the opacity when placing a Mickey Head!  I went with color and size this time.  I hid 17 assorted Mickey Heads. Some are just outlines.  I would like you to find 13 this week.

Same as always. You can click on the image to get a 3600x3600 version of my layout.  Circle the Mickey Heads. Send your circled version back to me at coyotelady(at)mac(dot)com.  You must have at least 13 out of 17 to be entered into the random drawing.  Everyone that plays along will receive a $1 coupon to Connie's store.  One lucky duck will be randomly drawn to receive the $10 coupon to Connie's store.

As for my layout, I used Connie's "Under the Sea".   The autograph is an extraction from our autograph collection.   It's a really fun kit that every Disney fan should own.
