"Magical Christmas" A Grand Surprise by Kirsteen

2010-01-19T20:35:00.003Z

This is Kirsteen's 4th entry: "A Grand Surprise with love Mickey and Minnie!" Kirsteen says: "While we were on our honeymoon we came back to our room one night to find this little gift from Mickey and Minnie waiting for us. " This is another beautiful layout, the lovely embellishments set it all off perfectly, the pink matches the other LO's and just enough Christmas accents for it too as it was a honeymoon afterall! i love the 2 little love birds! What a great surprise from Mickey and Minnie too! I love the Grand Floridian hotel and what a fab place to stay on your honeymoon! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"Magical Christmas" Twinkle by Kirsteen

2010-01-19T20:32:00.002Z

This is Kirsteen's 3rd entry, and I love the title "Twinkle" very apt for this beautiful layout of the Christmas lights twinkling in the gardens at night at the Grand Floridian hotel. Just enough Christmas embellishments and a gorgeous pink colour like the others in the album, 6"x12" again, The title has been made up of different alphabets and is very effective. Thank You and Good Luck xx

"Magical Christmas" Gingerbread House by Kirsteen

2010-01-19T20:28:00.002Z

This is Kirsteens 2nd entry to my Challenge: Gingerbread House, in the same 6x12 format as the others as they form part of her Honeymoon Album from Dec 2007. I just love the Gingerbread House in the Grand Floridian and this LO captures it all so lovely! There is just enough sweetness with the sugar pink colour and I love the embellishments, especially the beautiful flower. I also love the way the recipe is displayed as part of the layout too! Mmmmm yummy yummy, I can almost imagine just how this smells as you walk into the lobby of the Grand Floridian! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"Magical Christmas" Return 2 Splash Mountain by Kirsteen

2010-01-19T20:24:00.003Z

This is Kirsteen's 1st entry to my Challenge, "Return 2 Splash Mountain" I love the "splash mountain" colours of this layout, and as it was a Honeymoon in WDW in December 2007 there are little Christmassy elements in this too. Lovely embellishments and scrapped on 12"x6" format which makes a change and can show just how much you can fit onto half of a 12x12 sheet! This is what Kirsteen has to say about her LO: "...DH and I riding Splash Mountain very late at night in December 2007 after we have been at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. It was freezing! It was no wonder we were the only ones on the ride!! lol It's called Return to Splash Mountain as it was our second time on this ride. It was the first ride DH rode on our first trip in 2005..." Well, braver than me as I have only been on this once and certainly wouldnt go on it in the cold!!! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"As Night Time Falls" Our Honeymoon by Nicola

2009-12-13T18:57:00.002Z

This is Nicola's layout for my Challenge: "Our Honeymoon", it is something a bit different as it is a digital layout! The Photo of the Castle is lovely as night is just falling, and then the fireworks start! If you take a close look at the layout the wording is very special and romantic, The digital detail is beautiful, so much so that it is so hard to tell that it is a digital layout! The stitching and the ribbon is lovely, it makes me want to have a go at digital scrapbooking too! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"As Night Time Falls ..." Wishes by Kirsteen

2009-12-13T08:38:00.003Z

This is Kirsteen's entry to my Challenge, "Wishes" from the Magic Kingdom, I love the positioning of the photos and the colours of the cardstock and embellishment match the colours of the Castle perfectly, the ribbon detail is lovely and the Bling and the Sparkly Title reflect how sparkly the Wishes Fireworks really are! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"As Night Time Falls..." Disney's Best Sky by Debra

2009-12-08T11:40:00.003Z

" Disney's Best Sky" by Debra, Debra says about her photos: " we joined an illuminations tour and saw the most amazing views of the fireworks from the water in front of the Magic Kingdom." I would love to go on one of these tours, what a wonderful evening, and great photographs of the fireworks too! This is a beautiful layout with lots of bling and glitter to really reflect the fireworks, simple yet very effective. Thank You and Good Luck xxx

"As Night Time Falls..." Boo Castle by Debra

2009-12-08T11:35:00.002Z

"Boo Castle" by Debra, this is a stunning layout of the Castle during Mickeys Not So Scary Halloween Party! Debra says: "it really reflects how everything can change at Disney at night-time. The spooky images playing over the castle during the fireworks at Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party were amazing and unlike anything I've seen before." and I totally agree, I love the way that Disney project images onto the castle! The colours in this layout are lovely and I love the little buttons and ghosts! incorporating the Party Guide is a great idea too! Thank you Debra and Good Luck xxx

"In for a Scare" Halloween at DLP by Lynn

2009-11-14T09:21:00.003Z

This is Lynn's entry for my "In for a Scare" Challenge ... Halloween at Disneyland Paris. A great Double Page layout, in classic Halloween black and orange colours! I love how both layouts have contrast, orange with black matting and black with orange matting. The photos are perfect - and the embellishments keep it simple yet are very effective even though they are not Disney. Thank You and Good Luck xx

Love these Pumpkin Man photos! Looks like soo much fun!

This Witch looks really scary!

WEBSITE OPENING THIS EVENING!

2009-11-02T11:47:00.002Z

Hi, Just to let you know that my Website will be back up and running this evening, I am in the process of switching over the domain ( all very technical! ) and then I have to make a test purchase to make sure it is all ok and then I hope ( fingers crossed ) the new website will go live this evening, the web address is all the same, everything will look almost the same, but you will see the differences when you view it! Lots more features on this new site and I can't wait to show you! I am really pleased with how it all looks now! I have quite a few items that I am hoping to list this evening too, if not it will be into tomorrow, including the new Toy Story Sandylion and Mickey Colour Sandylion designs, new ribbons and so much more!

Thank you for your patience and I look forward to hearing about what you think of my new improved store!

2009-10-27T21:29:00.002Z

I have finally got round to adding the 1st entries to my challenge this month ... I look forward to seeing some more soon! xx

"In for a Scare" Ghosts of Halloween by Frances

2009-10-27T21:25:00.002Z

This is Frances 2nd entry to my Challenge - The Ghosts of Halloween! This is a great layout and wonderful how Frances has taken a non Disney Halloween Paper but made it very "disneyfied!" ( if that is a word!) with Little embellishments and more. I love the wonderful photos and take a look at one of the gravestones along the bottom!! The little ghosts floating around add to this spookiness!! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"In for a Scare" The Batty Villains of Disney by Frances

2009-10-27T21:21:00.002Z

This is France's 1st entry to my challenge, The Batty Villains of Disney! of her Niece at Disney in 2006. I love this layout! The children look great dressed up in their Halloween Costumes with the spooky Villains! This is Frances 1st attempt at Scrapbooking but you wouldnt guess it would you? They are much better than my 1st attempt! I love the way that the bat has been created and Frances has used Mickey edges scissors for around the outside. It is a lovely example of how you can scrap Disney Halloween photos without using Disney papers, but Disney embellishments. Thank You and Good Luck xx

"In for a Scare" Chicken by Kirsteen

2009-10-27T21:18:00.002Z

This is Kirsteen's 2nd entry to my challenge - Chicken! Who Me?! This is what Kirsteen has to say about this layout: "I had just agreed to ride The Tower of Terror with my BIL even though I didn't want to ride it! Then a huge downpour came and we never got a chance to ride TOT - I left the park a very happy camper and no one suspected that I was too chicken to ride" The background colour really reflects the weather and the scariness of the ride, but I love the palm trees which give it that hollywood feel and also the green bling around the edge too! I too am too chicken and have never made it past the elevators!!! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"In for a Scare" Jaws by Kirsteen!

2009-10-27T21:14:00.003Z

This is Kirsteens 1st entry to my "In for a Scare" Challenge: Jaws!! Everyone who goes to Universal Studios I think has this obligatory Jaws photo!! ( we are no exception!) I love the bright colours for this layout and the wavy patterend paper with the beautiful flower! Love the journalling too, but Kirsteen is like me and hates pyrotechnics, so I am tooo scared to go on this one again! how about you??? Thank You and Good Luck xxx

And the Winner is ...

2009-10-27T21:10:00.003Z

Debra with her stunning entry "The Magic of Spectromagic" which can be seen below! Thank You so much everyone who entered, I really enjoyed seeing all your layouts again and it was such a hard decision choosing a winner. I have set the new challenge "In for a Scare" more details are on my website, I have nearly finished my new website but have been delayed a few days as my son had an operation yesterday so I have been looking after him as he has needed alot of TLC! But I am aiming for opening by the end of the week providing everything works ok when i switch the domains over! I have some entries for this months challenge which I have added this evening! Thank You, Jo xxx

"Magical" The Magic of Spectromagic by Debra

2009-10-11T11:21:00.002+01:00

This is Debra's entry to my Challenge - The Magic of Spectromagic! What a stunning layout! The photos are pefect, I find it hard to get good photographs of evening parades like this but Debra's photos are just lovely! Having a very good spot just outside the Christmas Shop, Debra was able to take a picture of the castle all lit up with a view through the pretty flowers through Sleeping Beauty's Float! So the Castle is framed within the Flowers! Very Clever!! The black background is a perfect choice to show off these nightime photos, and I love the mount that Debra has used, which is tissue mounted on card and then sprayed with a beautiful shimmer mist! The bling and the flowers are so pretty, and cleverly cut on the cricut using scraperfoil board which is rainbow colours underneath and perfect for this. Everything blends in so well with this layout, it is sometimes hard to tell the embellishments from the photos! Thank You and Good Luck xxx

"Magical" Meeting Magical Fairies by Carole

2009-10-10T09:35:00.004+01:00

This is Carole's entry to my challenge - Meeting Magical Fairies!! It is a beautiful layout in gorgeous Tinkerbell Colours! This is what Carole has to say about her layout: "This is a page from my 6 year old grandsons scrapbook which I have made following our 1st trip to Disney in May, although there is not much journalling on this page I think everyone can see the magical expression as he meets Tinkerbell and her friends. He truly believed in the magic of Disney and believed they were the real fairies and characters and I think the magic shows in these pictures, it is my absolute favourite" yes - I totally agree - the look on his little face is just priceless and it is lovely to capture this in a scrapbook layout - after all it is not just little girls who believe in Fairies!! I love the green sparkly background to the photos too which highlights the lovely green of Tinkerbells dress and the other sparkly embellishments too! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"Magical" - Magical Memories by Lynn

2009-10-10T09:31:00.002+01:00

This is Lynn's entry to my Challenge "Magical Memories" Her and her cousins meeting Mickey Mouse! A lovely bright and colourful "Disney" colour layouts, I love the Mickey Paper and the black and white matting of the photos is very eyecatching, Lovely embellishments, and the whole gang in the middle brings it all together! Thank You and Good Luck xxx

"Magical" A Magical Character Meal by Karen

2009-09-30T10:43:00.003+01:00

This is Karen's 2nd entry to my Challenge: A Magical Character Meal in Auberge de Cendrillon in Disneyland Paris! I love this layout! Karen's daughter met so many characters as you can see: Perla and Suzie as well as Belle and Beast and Ariel and Eric. And when I next go to Disneyland Paris - I would love to go here - because - just look at the White Chocolate Shoe that you get for dessert!!! Wow!! I love how the colours used in this layout reflect the architecture of Fantasyland and the restaurant, very clever it all comes together really nicely! Thank You and Good Luck xxx

"Magical" A Magical Birthday Tea Party by Karen

2009-09-30T10:39:00.002+01:00

This is Karen's 1st entry to my Magical Challenge: A Magical Birthday Tea Party at the Plaza Gardens Restaurant in Disneyland Paris for her daughters 8th Birthday! What a Magical way to spend your birthday surrounded by all these wonderful Disney Characters and a Disney Birthday Cake too! I love the Belle paper and the positioning of the photos, and the rounded edges give it all a very soft look. Thank You and Good Luck xxx

"Magical" - Feelin' The Magic by Zahra

2009-09-22T20:08:00.002+01:00

This is Zahra's 2nd entry to my Challenge - Feelin' The Magic! Beautiful Disney Colours of Red, Black and Yellow with some Glitter round the edge of the Mickey make this a stunning eyecatching layout. The larger photo looks really good in the center with the 2 matching smaller ones in the Mickey Ears above - a really good idea! The Title is in Yellow Glitter - which gives the whole layout a bit of that Disney Magic! What a lovely Magical Moment! Thank You and Good Luck xxx

"Magical" How to paint a Disney Castle by Ally

2009-09-11T15:05:00.003+01:00

This is Ally's entry to my Challenge - also using my blue "Magical" kit! What a gorgeous layout, Ally is very talented and painted this gorgeous Disney Canvas for her Niece a few years ago - the photos show the canvas in various stages of the production! The Cardstock from the kit has been divided into 2 and layered, and I love the scalloped edge - very different. You can just make out the pixie dust vellum and the Silver Thickers for the title set the whole thing off nicely. The ribbons just in one corner with the flowers keeps the embellishments simple but they are still there - looking very pretty! Thank You and Good Luck ss

"Magical" - Magic Moments by Becky

2009-09-10T10:26:00.003+01:00

This is Becky's entry to my Challenge - "Magic Moments" also using my blue "Magical" kit! The lovely photograph is Becky and her daughter earlier this year in the Magic Kingdom, which of course is where the Magic is! The journalling is wording from a Magic Kingdom song, "Memories We've Been Sharing" and the Gorgeous title is cut using the Cricut Mickey Font - I love the M in the Mickey Ears shape! The pixie dust vellum looks gorgeous against the blue background and I love the way the ribbons and ric rac have been positioned and where Becky has put the little crystals that came with the kit ( see if you can see them!) and the ribbon tied around some of the letters works well too. Thank You and Good Luck xx

"Magical" - The Magic of Sleep by Lois

2009-09-10T10:21:00.003+01:00

This is Lois's entry for my Challenge - The Magic of Sleep! (I don't usually have non-disney entries but I loved this one from the UKS challenge that I set last week - and it is using my Blue "Magical" kit ... and babies - a subject close to my heart! I just wish mine would sleep anywhere like that! The Magic of Being able to Sleep anywhere ... A gorgeous layout - a lovely photo showing just how easy babies can sleep anywhere ( except mine!) I love the positioning of the ribbons that were in the kit - and the way the the ribbon is tied up at the top too, and the way that the 2 colours from the kit have been split in half to break up the solid colour too. Thank You and Good Luck xx

"Magial" - Magical Memories by Zahra

2009-09-05T09:24:00.002+01:00

This is Zahra's entry to my Magical Challenge: "Magical Memories" of Disneyland Paris. A gorgeous Pink background to co-ordinate perfectly with the pretty colours of the Castle, such a stunning photo! The title is very apt - and the photos on the little girl's face is priceless - it looks like she is looking up in awe of the magnificent castle and remembering all those Magical Moments. This is a beautiful layout. Thank You and Good Luck xx

September's "Magical" Challenge ...

2009-09-02T15:35:00.002+01:00

Septembers Challenge will have a "Magical" theme to it. Please see my website here for all the details ... I have actually managed to do a layout this week!! So my example is above - using my "Magical" mini kit - the pink version!! This layout was inspired by my Favourite Magical place - can you guess where it is!!! And - also one of my favourite Disney songs that you will recognise from my blog - which is where the Quote and the Journalling come from, There are 7 photos representing the 7 lands in the Magic Kingdom! It was quite hard finding some of the photos as for some "lands" I didnt have as many good ones as others! I hope you like it and I look forward to seeing your enterpretation of my "Magical" Challenge! Thank You, Jo xxx

And The Winner is ...

"A Day at Disney" Around The World in 8 Hats by Debra

2009-08-30T11:32:00.003+01:00

This is Debra's 2nd entry for my Challenge - Around the World in 8 Hats - at Epcot! This is such a fun layout - I bet that you will all want to try this when you next go to Epcot!! I know we will! The background colour has been kept simple with a compass / World theme to go with Epcot and it shows off the great photos beautifully. This is what Debra has to say: " 'Around the world in 8 hats' was from our 2007 holiday, we went to every country in one day in Epcot and I had my photo taken wearing a hat from that country. When we came home I picked my favourites to make this lo, it was a great record of our day at Epcot." The journalling is great and quite reminiscent of a great explorerer travelling around the world and documenting their travels! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"A Day at Disney" A Disney Day By Debra

2009-08-30T11:27:00.002+01:00

This is Debra's First Entry for my Challenge - A Disney Day. This is a fabulous simple let effective layout. There are so many photos here that the design is kept simple with a little bit of Bling and a Colourful Disney Title. The colours are lovely - and can you see the slightly hidden Mickey stamp? This is what Debra says about her "Disney Day": " 'A Disney day' was from our holiday this year in Jan and what a busy day it was! We met the Mayor on Main Street and Daisy Duck, saw the day and nightime parades, tried to lift the sword from the stone, travelled on a riverboat, had a character dining dinner at Liberty Tree tavern, saw the castle lit up with its Christmas lights and stayed for the fireworks." Wow - what alot they managed to do!! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"A Day at Disney" Disneyland California by Karen

2009-08-27T21:28:00.002+01:00

This is Karen's entry to my Challenge - A Day at Disneyland in California! This is a fabulous layout which documents their whole day - and what alot they managed to do -Karen describes their typical Disney Day: "Character breakfast in Goofy's Kitchen, obligatory photo with Mickey and Walt, first ride is always It's A Small World, lunch in Toontown, meeting Mickey in his house, Toy Story Mania - great ride! - meeting Silvermist, finished off with a Princess meal in Ariel's Grotto!" I love the way that the photos are presented in this all the way round the Mickey ears in the middle, and your eye is therefore also drawn towards the journalling in the centre, Lovely typical Disney colours, and bling on the Mickey Ears too! Thank You and Good Luck xx

2009-06-14T21:41:00.003+01:00

This is a beautiful layout for my "Making a Splash" Challenge by Louise. The colours that have been chosen: Black, Blue and White compliment the SeaWorld theme and the Shamu photos perfectly! Louise was really lucky to do the "Dine with Shamu" Something we would all love to do one day!! One large photo was chosen and then the rest of the photos cleverly pull out concertina style from underneath the lovely journalling! A brilliant idea to display all those wonderful photos!! Thank You and Good Luck xx

"Making a Splash" My Son's & My Layouts!!

2009-06-14T21:34:00.002+01:00

This is the layout that my little boy Joshua aged 9 has done for my challenge - he loves scrapbooking and also loves Splash Mountain! He created all this himself, chose the photos, papers ( raided my shop!!) - the only thing I did was cut and mount the photos! Bless him! Obviously he hasnt "officially" entered the challenge - but he does like to take part when we have the time! LOL!!

Pop Century - Water Fun - This is my boys in the Hippy Dippy pool at the Disney Hotel - they had such alot of fun splashing around! I really enjoyed creating this bright and colourful layout - I printed off the "Pop" logo from the internet onto photo paper!! Hope you like it, xx

Celebration Fountains! These photos are my boys splashing about in the wonderful fountains at Disney's Town of Celebration - one of my favourite places - perfect for escaping the hustle and bustle of WDW!! Firstly - they just got a little bit wet - and then gradually they got SOAKED!!! luckily it was so hot that they quickly dried off!! xx
