Disney Scrapping

Project Forty-five

2012-01-25T20:03:00.001-05:00

Hello and Welcome Back!

For this project I just wanted to show the cute little cards we are making for my youngest Daughter's Valentine's Card! We home school but we attend a weekly Co-op and they attend faith formation. So they will be giving these out there. I love all the cute cuts on the Disney Cartridges, that are not so Disney! That's what makes them great to have,

My youngest is Eight years old, so I only get to make the first card. After that she makes them.

This is the card!

I tried to get a close up of his little face and wings. Yes I glues and glittered 22 pairs of wings LOL

OK So Here is how I made him

Since these are for my Daughter, I don't make full cards. I divide the 8.5 x 11 card stock into fours.

We put the card part on front and she stamps the back and signs her name.

Each card is 4.25 x 5.5

I started with white card stock

I took a piece of red rose Stampin Up 4 x 5.25 and Used the Divine Swirl Cuttlebug folder

Then I took a 3.75 x 5 pattern paper

I hand stitched and lines for the bee and the outer stitching.

The Be Mine was just a stamp I had.

The Bee is from the Pooh and Friends Cricut Cartridge

I cut him at 3 inches.

I then used Glossy Accents on the eye and the top of the antennas.

I then used LaJolle Icy Accents Glitter on the wings.

When I make cards for my daughter I make all the bees and cut all the paper pieces. She now gets to assemble them.

Thanks for Looking!

Project Forty-four Challenge Project

2012-01-14T10:34:00.000-05:00

Hello and welcome back! We are working on some cute stuff around here. I am still on a wait list for a "new" look for the blog, but patience is a virtue. So I am trying.

So I was due on Thursday to do this major restock of my craft shelves. Hubby had found a bigger chunk for my shopping budget ...whooo hooo him! So I woke up Thursday so excited. We were driving into town, went to the bank had some breakfast and that's where my day went WRONG!! On the highway to go to Micheal's, my van;s radiator decided to explode. The good thing is hubby listened to me when we bought the van to pay for the extra warranty that covered the engine and such. So it wasn't as bad, we have a deductible but not the whole bill. So there went my "extra" plus a little of my budget. So instead of whinnying, which I did do on the inside. I put my big girl undies on and shopped with what I had. I GOT NEW CRICUT BLADES!! So I am in business around here.

So for today's project it is for a challenge over at My Creative Time. Emma has a Thursday challenge to use some of our older more forgotten cartridges. This was to use any cartridge but it had to have a sport theme to it. So the only person in my life who likes sports is my dad. So I made this card for him to let him know we miss him! So here we go.

So my family are huge University of Michigan fans!! So you know there is a huge Disney Sports store in Downtown Disney. Even Disney it trying to "get" those Sports fans. So I came up with Tigger playing Football for my favorite team.

Recipe

Card Base
is from Paper Dolls for Everyday

Football and the Goal Post
I made the football at 23 inches with out the real size button
I then copied the football, dragged it above my first football flipped it and then welded it together to be the base of the card.
The goal post was actually cut at 4 inches
I cut the image twice. Once in silver then in Gold. I then just used the bottom part of the Gold for the goal post.

Tigger
was cut at 4.5 inches
using my Gypsy I made a Football jersey from the same EDPD cartridge at 4.03 inches.
I made 2 jersey one I made blue and the other I fused a M into it to get the layered look.

The words and the M on the shirt are all from the cartridge Cutting Up cut at 1 inch.

I had to soooo stop myself from making this card PRETTY! I was going to glitter the words, hubby stopped me. He kept reminding me it was for my DAD.

Have a great day and thanks for looking!

2012-01-07T12:39:00.001-05:00

SO WELCOME BACK!!!! It's a new year and new beginnings. I never realized how long I had been away from the blog. So most of you know my husband and I were in process of adopting two children. I had no clue how much my life would change. We have had the girls almost one year now. We are waiting on final adoption papers anytime .... fingers are crossed. Plus if that is not enough craziness in my life, this school year we have decided we are homeschooling. So my plate has been full, but my crafting mojo is so back. So I have been reading all my favorite blogs. I have a few projects already to cut in my Gypsy, so excited. So what am I waiting on you ask. Well my mats that I got when I originally purchased my Cricut have finally cracked and have gone to crafting heaven. So I am getting new mats this weekend. So I just wanted to say "HI" first and now I will make another post with a cute little project!

Thanks for all the supportive messages this past year!!!
Love You ALL!!

So now that I know what I am doing ... I am working on a video today that will be less than 10 minutes. So yes I will be doing the video with a timer next to me.

Project Forty and a Throwback Thursday Challenge

2011-01-08T00:02:00.000-05:00

Happy Friday Everyone!!

I am sorry I am running really late with my Friday project...just finished it

So sorry the pictures are not that great! Will work on for next time!

OK so for today's project it is a challenge over at My Creative Time

Emma is great she challenges us to use some of our older cartridges.

So for today's challenge was a viewer's choice. We got to pick our own cartridge, but the entry

had to have a Valentine's theme to it or a heart!

I am hoping my hubby doesn't read this one post because it is going to be my Valentine's card for him.

His favorite Disney Character of all time is Donald Duck. We even dressed up as Donald and Daisey Duck a few Halloween's ago.

So here is my card I made

My Love Card!

A close up of Donald and Daisey. I drew them using the Cri-Kits then colored with copics.

A view of the inside of the card with the sentiment

Recipe

Basics

OK Card paper is all Stampin Up

Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White, Very Vanilla and pattern paper is there's also.

A2 card 4.25 x 5.5 in Cherry Cobbler

Very Vanilla is 4.15 x 5.4

Pattern Paper is cut 4.05 x 5.3

Ribbon on corners is Stampin Up Cherry Cobbler.

Now I just brushed the edges of the pattern paper with basic Black Ink to make them stand out against the very vanilla base.

Heart

cartridge: Martha Stewart All Occasion Cakes

cut at 4.06

The heart has little circle around the edge, I hide them for this project in my Gypsy

I then used LaJolle Glue and Basic Black Glitter around the edges of the heart

Paper is from Stampin Up

The Ducks

Cartridge: Mickey and Friends

cut at 3.03 inches

I used my Gypsy you can use Design Studio also.

On one layer I used the Cri-Kits to "draw" the image

With the eye open on layer 1 I opened another layer

used the blackout feature and lines the black out perfectly with the image on layer one.

So I loaded my mat with the Cri-Kit pen in placed. Cut the first layer which is really drawing the image with details. Then DO NOT REMOVE MAT go back to design. I took out the the pen holder and replaced the blade housing. Then I hit cut. This is the black out which will cut around the edge of your image.

I then just colored the image with copics, added a shadow. Then used pop dots, to add dimensions.

Thanks for looking!

Project Thirty-nine

2011-01-05T19:13:00.000-05:00

Happy Wednesday Everyone!!

So for today's project I am using the Disney Dreams Come True Cartridge.

The reason I love the Disney cartridges is there are some really cute hidden gems in each one.

This card being one of those little gems.

One of our nieces turned 19 this week, so I made a card for her.

Something girly but not to babyish.

Before seeing the pictures I tried to show a few snaps of the Gypsy screen to give you an idea how I use my cri-kit pens to align the sentiment up for the inside of the card, the images are a little dark. Will try to take better pictures next time.

A cake shaped card.

This is a picture of layer one in my gypsy. I took the cake Shadow image copy and pasted it, then mirrored it and pushed the two images so part of the cakes were touching, then welded it. You must mirror the second image or the card will not line up right.

Picture three is the 2nd Layer. I keep the eye for layer one open, this way I can see the actual card to line up the words for my sentiment. One I cut layer one, DO NOT UNLOAD you mat, just take out your blade, replace it with the Cri-kits holder then cut layer two, which doesn't really cut it writes.

OK Recipe for the card

Basics

Shape card

cartridge: Disney Dreams Do Come True

page 48

Cut at 4.04 inches

card

Stampin Up Very Vanilla

Shadow: Base/Icon with Shift key

copy and mirror and weld two pieces together

Cupcake on front

Icon layer Stampin Up Chocolate Chip

Icon with Shift pattern paper is from DCWV Sweets Stack I cut this layer with out the cherry

I did the same cut as above except this time I only cut the cherry Stampin Up Real Red

I then used Red Stickles on the cherry

For the Inside I used my Glitter Pink Cri-Kits pen to write Happy Birthday using Cutting Up Cartridge

Thanks for looking

I will see you all Friday with my next project!

Project Thirty-eight and MPS Challenge!

2011-01-02T22:55:00.000-05:00

I am so nervous and excited as I make this post.

I woke up this morning to find out that Robyn over My Pink Stamper is having an open call for two new members for her Design Team!!

OK so many of you may not of known this but I had be given my Expression last Black Friday. I took it out of the box set it up ... cut 2 mickey heads and there is sat. It then proceeded to collect a lot of dust.

Then one day many months later, by chance I found a blog about Cricut called .... yes you got it .... My Pink Stamper.

Well I started watching all her videos old and new ... became a follower .... starting finding more blogs to follow ... and that night I created my first card. Well then Robyn started saying words like "Stampin Up" "ATG Gun" "Mono Adhesive" I had no clue what these things were. So I order an ATG Gun, went to Micheal's bought a few cartridges ... yes full price .... that was before I found the great online stores ...

I then googled "Stampin Up" found a local demonstrator near me ... who I so so love .... Karen you are the greatest.

A month later I started this great blog ... so all my great creating started with My Pink Stamper

OK so for the design challenge we have to use three colors Pink, Green and Brown.

So I thought how to I try out for this awesome opportunity while keeping my Disney Spirit .... well this card came to me ..... so I design in Gypsy ...starting making .... well then my phone rang with a call from my dear friend who loved DISNEY just as much as I do. She is going through some stuff .... so the card no has a ton of meaning as I am sending it to her tomorrow!!

Here is my entry Recipe is below pictures!

Here is the card

Close up of me .... the Disney girl herself!!

This is a picture of my Gypsy how I welded the Mickey heads to the dress

Recipe

Basics

Card size 4.25 x 5.5

Paper is Stampin Up Very Vanilla

I then took Stampin Up Rose Red that I used EK Success Dots and Scrolls border punch on the bottom

The pattern paper is GCD Cloisonne Pack (Big Lots)

The green Ribbon is from Micheal's Celebrate

White Signo Dots and Green Crystals from Micheal's

OK so as for the little me

dress: page 67 main image

hair: page 61 Headwear Key

I then used my Signo Pen to color the eyes just a little.

The Sentiment is Stampin Up Craft Ink with Studio G Stamps.

OK so here is where it gets fun.

I used the same dress and made a second cut but I welded Mickey heads from the Mickey Heads

Small mickey heads cut at: .25 inches

Big Mickey Head cut at: .5 inches

I placed the dress with the mickey heads cut out on top of the plain dress

to finish up I used prima flowers, stickles and the extra mickey heads from the dress to make it look Disney!

2010-12-31T12:19:00.001-05:00

Good Morning Everyone!

Happy Friday to all!

So I planned this project at the beginning of the week because I picked up the girls Thursday ....

and they are here till Sunday afternoon. We are hoping to have full custody at the end of this month.

OK so this is a really cute card I made using my Gypsy. You could use Design Studio also!!

This is for one of our adopted "nieces". We have been friends with their parents for many years, so we got the honorary titles of Aunt and Uncle. She is having her 12th Birthday next week.

The recipe is below the pictures. But I want to explain I used Cri-Kits for the sentiment on the inside of the card. I took pictures of the Cri-Kits so everyone can see what they are and how they work.

I will add the link to where you buy your own Cri-Kits they are so much fun!!

This is the card

This is the inside of the card........This is Gypsy Font using my Cri-Kits and Gypsy

This is the Cri-Kits The purple metal part is the actual part that goes in the Cricut.

A close up of the pen in the holder.

This is what it looks like in the Cricut

Recipe

Cartridge: Disney Happily Ever After and the font I used was Gypsy Wondering

The dress is actually two icons welded together. to for the base of the card

page 44

1. the shadow base/icon with the shift key

at 4 inches

2. copy that image, mirror it, then flip it then move the image so the edges of the top of the dress are touching. Weld the two pieces together.

OK so I opened another page in my Gypsy with layer 1 being able to been seen so then used Gypsy Font to write Happy Birthday Cari , I was able to see the outline of the dress so I knew where to put the words.

OK so the dress part of the front of the card is Page 44

The base of the dress is the Icon key cut at 4 inches

the paper is from DCWV 8x8 Sweet Stack

The top of the dress is the Icon with the Shift key

the paper is Stampin Up Regal Rose

I then glittered the top

then put Glossy on top using two coats.

I cut the images on layer 1 Then I did not unload the mat

I went to layer two on my Gypsy. Then I took out my blade housing and put in the Cri-kit And "cut" the second layer. The second layer never really cut on the dress I used the pen to write.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask ... oh yeah here is the link to Cri-Kits

OK so I am sorry I meant to post this a few days ago. I am so trying to get used to work, hubby and 2 beautiful girls. Plus finding time to craft. I am so lucky that this past weekend was the girls first over night visit. Well to my happiness the girls wanted to craft!! We made cards for their foster mom. They got to pick out the image and colors for their cards. Then they decorated them and write nice things to her. I couldn't have been prouder! We used Create a Critter with them, because the cuts are so easy for little ones.

OK so on to today's project. The last project I showed was for my oldest child's life book. And the pictures I used were the first photo hubby and I were given ans the second picture on the page was from the day we first meet. So I keep the same style for my little ones. My older daughter's room is all Tinkerbell while my little one is all Disney Princess.

So I made a 12x12 Layout for her two photos using Disney Happily Ever After Cartridge. So here are the pictures with recipe below! I made these using my Gypsy. Man I am so in love with that little machine!!

Many of you know my husband and I are adopting two beautiful girls. So I am starting their life books.

I have chosen themes for their rooms and have kept the themes for their life books.

One child is Tinkerbell while the other and younger one is Disney Princess.

So the pages I am creating first are the first page in their life books.

I am doing the Tinkerbell page today ... can you guess what my next project will be LOL

OK so I did a Tinkerbell Layout.

I have left room for 2 photos. The first photo is for the photo I got when I first was chosen to be their mom. The second photo is the first family snap shot we took this weekend.

So here is the first page

This is a close up of the tiny mushroom and Tinkerbell

This is a close up of the word Believe!

Which means so so much to us...

OK so here is the recipe

Basics

Background Paper: EK Success Pixie Dust

Picture Frames: Stampin Up So Saffron cut at 4.75 x 4.75 inches

then I added some ribbon I think this is from Target

Tree Info

Cartridge: Tinkerbell and Friends

Page 68

all cut at 8 inches

Shadow in Stampin up Basic Black

Tree is Stampin Up Chocolate Chip

The leaves are Stampin Up Green Galore

Mushroom Info

Cartridge: Tinkerbell and Friends

Page 69

cut at 2.25 inches

Shadow in Black

Main Image in Chocolate Chip

Flesh layer is Stampin Up Crumb Cake

Flesh layer with shift is Stampin Up Real Red

OK so here was my fun part

I tried to cut the tiny flowers to go at the base but at this size it was not working

If anyone knows the proper settings to cut at this tiny size please SHARE THEM!!!

So what I did do was use Aqua Glue and some blue Flocking powder to make little blue flowers

Then I used Stampin up Bright Brads to be the centers

Word Believe

cartridge: Tinkerbell and Friends

page 29

Filigree layer

cut at 2.25

Once cut I placed the image face down

in my 5 inch Xyron Sticker maker

then I sprinkled LaJolle Ice Crystals Glitter all of the top

Tinkerbell

she is from Sandy Lion

a group of stickers I have.

I wanted to use my cricut but sometimes cutting at this tiny size is not easy

with the tiny cuts.

Sorry I have been soooo MIA

First off I need to explain why I have not been crafting lately. My house hold is going up side down. My husband and I have been going through the adoption process for just under two years. Well last Friday we were told we had been chosen to be the parents to two beautiful girls age 7 and 9. Well we had one bedroom prepared but not two. So we have been transforming our spare room into a Disney Princess bedroom. Well that room was my craft room....so I had to relocate my crafts ..to our dinning room...until we can find a bigger house. So I know have my craft area under control and its time to CRAFT....yeah...

OK so today's project is for Peachy Keen Challenge. The challenge was to create something in an October theme...but no cards. So I created a scrapbook page for our very soon trip to Walt Disney World's NSSHP. We are going as Pirates so we are really excited. We wish we could take the girls but not yet...maybe for the Very Merry Christmas Party!

Project Twenty-Four

2010-10-01T10:41:00.001-04:00

OK so my Internet issues are not settled yet...yes I dropped my hot spot and now it's not working. So I am at work with hubby so I can upload this cute little project. Plus I normally try my hand at a few challenges here and there, so I just got a feed blitz from Robyn over at My Pink Stamper is having a "Spooky" challenge. And the prize is her brand new "Spooky Puns Stamps". If you have not been to My pink stamper stop by she is so awesome and her site is so informational. She came out with a line of stamps that are just so darn cute. So the new spooky ones are right up my alley! Plus I some how lost all my Halloween stamps and the only one I have I used in this project how sad....must have more Halloween stamps.

OK so back to my project LOL

I love love love love Halloween...do you get the idea that I love Halloween.

Well so of course my house it's a Disney Halloween. We go to the Mickey's Not-So-Scary-Halloween party every year. We are going the night of the 22nd this October....LOVE IT!

So my house decorations ALL have a Disney theme to theme, but so do my Halloween cards. This was probably the "hardest one I am doing this year, and by hard I mean you have to cut and paste LOL They are not that hard! So here is card #1

OK so here is how I made this card!

Yes I had to use Design Studio

Card Basics

Black was Brazzil's Basic Black 11 x 4 1/4 folded in half to make a 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches card

Pattern Paper Stampin Up Wicked Fun Designer's Series cut to 5 1/4 x 4 inches

..whole pack is super cute

Orange is Pumpkin Spice by Stampin Up cut to 5 x 3 3/4 inches

Stamp of Boo to You was a Studio G stamp and I used

Stampin Up Rich Razzleberry

Ribbon is from Micheal's Halloween Collection

Mickey the Wizard

I did use my Design Studio to make sure everything fit.

Mickey

Cartridge is Mickey and Friends

Page 79 Mickey main button

with details cut at 3.299 x 4.388

Cream color paper for face cut at 1.433 x 1.336

Eyes using white cut at .581 x .89

I did use the hide contour feature for the buttons since I was not going to be using them

Pink Paper for the tongue cut at .481 x .213

Now assemble Mickey's face...then here comes the hard part cut off Mickey's head...yes I said it LOL

I am only using Mickey's head. The rest of the wizard was Paper Doll Dress Up. It is much easy to "line" up Mickey's head to a paper doll body then it is to line up the paper doll clothes to Mickey's body.

Now for the Wizard Portion

Cartridge used Paper Doll Dress Up

Black paper for the main body page 29

I just used the main image.

cut at 3.072 x 4.415

Now for the Wizard parts page 54

Cape was DCWV Metallic paper in Light Blue cut at 3.631 x 3.286

Robe with stars is just Blue paper cut at 2.672 x 2.521

The black out robe is yellow paper cut at 2.6 x 2.5

If you were to use the feet the shoes need to be cut at 2.189 x .713

Hat was same blue paper from robe cut at 1.184 x 1.88 PLUS rotate the image -8.854

Ok so here come the HARD parts

Trim the paper doll head side but leave the middle portion of the head.

Glue your Mickey head on to the paper doll head.

Now take your scissors and cut off the pinkie of the paper doll's hands.

Now assemble the rest of the wizards clothes to the body.

Now for the hat.

I cut it a little big so I cut the hat right above the top star. Now I cheated

for the back of the hat. All I did was cut a small piece of the yellow paper and glue it to the back of the hat. I didn't want to try hiding all the starts and such to cut a plain hat. So cheating worked.

Also for my card I cut off the doll's legs. Mainly just to make him fit to the card.

The staff

I just cut off the top of the staff and placed a Rhinestone that I bought that was already in the shape of a Mickey Head.

That's the END....Have fun and try it....it's not as hard as it sounds.

Hubby promised to video my next card for Tomorrow....See my Mickey Ghost card!

See Ya Later

But when you think things are looking down, we are hoping to hear from our social worker some time tomorrow to see about an adoption placement so keep us in your prayers.

OK so today's project is part of a monthly tag swap being help by KinderStampO. Jess is wonderful. So the theme for September's tags was destinations. So where would I go if I could Walt Disney World of course....easy right...lol...So here is my tag and yes Jess they are on there way to you right now!

Recipe

.....I still have issues with same fonts LOL

Mickey

Cartridge used Mickey and Friends

I used Cri Kits pens from Cricut Dan

Project Twenty Two

2010-09-21T21:07:00.001-04:00

OK So I have been away from crafting these past weeks. I think it has only been a few days till I just realized it's been some weeks since I posted. Well that has to change LOL So I made this little card pretty quick. I learned the multi-colored pattern paper from my Stampin Up demonstrator. She used alcohol inks which made it so easy. This didn't go the same way but it was different. I cut a 3 inch Mickey head using Mickey Font and it was pretty simple!! Thanks for looking!

Project Tweny-one C

2010-09-05T21:50:00.001-04:00

Happy Sunday and welcome back to project twenty-one my Mini Album Kit Eeyore.

OK so part A was the photo mats

Part B was one of the two Embellishments.

Today's part C is the Journal Spot.

I decided to make a tree shaped journal spot.

I started by printing lines on green card stock and putting on the Cricut mat to cut.

Then I used Design Studio to place the trees correctly.

Once the trees were cut. I added the next layer the trunk of the tree.

I placed a trunk on the backside of the tree also, in case someone didn't want to Journal with the lines.

So this is the what the mini kit looks like so far

I have one more embellishment to do, which is what you got a sneak peek yesterday.

I am waiting for something to get back in stock at my local store so I can finish it.

Then all I have to do is do a little bag of Flair, which I am still trying to come up with.

Thanks for Looking

Project Twenty-one-B

2010-09-04T15:41:00.002-04:00

OK so now on to the next step in my Eeyore Mini Album kit Swap!!

OK so I hope you took a minute to read the info in project 20 in not take and second to read!

This is part B of the project- Embellishments.

Part A I made the photo frames. This part I used my Cricut and Cut out Eeyore's name in 3 layers.

The top layer I used my Xyron 5 inch sticker maker and made the front of the top layer a sticker. Yes i said the front LOL.

I then combined Martha Stewart's Robins Egg and Hydrangea flocking powder to get a more Eeyore color. I then flocked the top layer of the name plate and added a few Rhinestone's. I have 1 more embellishment to make then I will be working on a Journal Spot. So here is a picture of the name plate.

So here is what I have so far

This is a little sneak peek at the next step....

I will explain how I did this in the next step!

2010-09-01T21:57:00.001-04:00

OK so I am working on a mini album swap thingy...Did this make any sense...LOL

So each member of a four person team were assigned a Winnie the Pooh Character. I got Eeyore. So we are to make 4 complete Mini-Kits. Each kit is to be the same. We send in our 4 same mini-kits then the person organizing this sends us back one of each person's mini-kit. So in the end you have a mini kit for each Winnie the Pooh character. OK so now that I explained this LOL....I am starting with the first part of my mini kit.

I had to make 2 photo mats and each one was to have some sort of Embellishment on it. The first mat was for a 4 x 6 photo and the second one will be for a 4 x 4 photo. So here are my photo frames for this project. Each day for a couple of days you will see what's next for me to make for my mini Eeyore kits.

So I am so sorry all! I have been swamped with getting back to school this year. I am back in college, so at my age and am classes and homework are something to get used to.

OK so we had to make either 5, 10 or 15 tags with the theme, we were assigned Nature. So I made 10 of these tags sent them to Jess, along with a postage paid envelope. Once Jess got everyone, she sorted them as sent each of us the number of tags you sent from the others in the group. I got some beautiful tags. The came today, so I am really excited! So I will know so you the tag I made plus a quick photo of the ones I received.

Project Eighteen

2010-08-04T22:58:00.001-04:00

Welcome to another project with Disney in mind. This is actually a Birthday card for my sister. I made the doll look like her then used a Disney cartridge to make her Cinderella! Yes major cutting and pasting, but it turned out cute. This is also for another Peachy Keen Challenge #34. We were to use the sketch below for the challenge.

This is what I came up with!

Recipe ( yes this was a long one)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Paper is all Brazzill

Pattern Paper is K1 Memories

Card is 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches

Pattern Paper cut to 5 x 8 inches

Strips of paper going across

Pink color is 2 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches then I ran it through the cuttlebug using Swiss Dots folder

White Strip is 2 x 8 1/2 inches then ran through cuttlebug using Polka Dots folder

Strips going up and down

Pink is 3 x 5 1/2 I then used Fiskars Apron Lace border punch on both sides of pink

Pattern paper is the same K1 Memories as background 2 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches

Scalloped circles

Cartridge used: Martha Stewart's All Occasion cakes page 37

pink one cut at 3 inches

White one cut at 2 3/4 inches then ran through with cuttlebug Happy Birthday Folder

Cinderella Doll

OK this is where I had to do major cut and paste to get this to work

Doll it self

Cartridge: Everyday paper doll page 28 cut at 2 1/2 inches using the blackout feature

Face is Peachy Keen assorted faces stamps

ink was Stampin Up Chocolate Chip

Hair was page 31 paper was yellow with a stencil brush using Stampin Up Chocolate Chip for highlights.

Cinderella Dress

Cartridge: Happily Ever After page 29 icon button both regular and with shift key

OK so the top of the dress was cut at 3 inches

While the bottom of the dress was cut at 2 1/2 inches.

Once dress was put together you still have to "trim" the doll to have the Disney hourglass figure.

I added stickles clear to the dress and pearls.

I used rhinestones for a tiara.

I am so EXCITED today! I order my very first Peachy Keen Stamps last week, yes I know its about darn time. Well they arrived today!! So I wanted to finally do my first challenge with them at their blog, Peachy Keen Stamp Challenge Blog. The challenge was to do your favorite summer thing using one of the following B's : button, bling or brads. So I used BLING! Wee you would think where would any Disney-holic want to go during summer....Disney...right...WRONG!! I lived in Florida for to long not to know. During Summer, the ride lines are 4 times longer and the heat index is to darn hot. So my favorite thing during the summer, is to get out or doggie pool and let the fur babies play in the water. This is my princess, Lady, she loves the water. Since I have always wanted a Disney bathing suit, they don't make them in "fluffy" sizes for me, I got to create one on my doll. I gave her some Mickey bling on her suit, flip flops and Hair. Yeah Disney. Lady even got a bling collar that looks like a Disney head. I love this during the summer.

Hello Everyone!
So for today's project is for a challenge plus sentimental reasons.
The challenge was over at Cuttlebug Challenges. We were to use lace or doilies plus embossing.

I loved the idea but was having inspiration challenges for this one.
Well this morning I got up to read my blogs as always.
Well Robyn over at My Pink Stamper
suggested we all send pink cards to a fellow crafter who is battling breast cancer. Monique over at Monkey Doodle Cricut has been diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. I have never meet her but have been following her craft blog for awhile now.

So the inspiration came to me for this challenge. Normally I do put Disney into everything, but this time I am keeping it simple and just using the Disney Happily Ever After Cartridge. Just a sweet card to let her know we are all thinking of her and praying for her recovery. If you would like to join in pop over to Robyn's blog My Pink Stamper for details.

Recipe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Paper is all Brazzill except pattern paper which is Paper Pizazz Muted Roses.
Lace is from scraps I had here in a pile.

Card is 5 1/2 by 4 1/4
Rose paper cute to same size
Pink Paper cut at 5 x 3 3/4
Than I used my Cuttlebug folder Textile (love this folder)

Tree
Cartridge is Happily Ever After (DISNEY) page 76
Cut at 2 3/4 inches
Purple was Shadow base/icon with shift
Black was Icon with shift
I used pink stickles for the flowers.

Welcome back to Disney Scrapping!
OK so I love challenges because it gets me out of my box and makes me think...love it
So I found a cool challenge on The Cuddlebug Spot. We were to use 2x2 embossing squares.
So I needed to send my Brother-in-Law a birthday card. So I tried to make a "manly" card so hard not to throw some flowers on it! I keep with my whole Disney theme by putting Disney balloons instead of plain ones. I think it turned out cute.

Recipe
~~~~~~~~~
card size: 8 1/5 x 5 1/2 inches
Blue background piece cut at 8 1/4 x 5 1/4 inches

Cartridge used was plantin schoolbook
Squares cute at:
Pattern Square 2 1/2 inches
Brown Square 2 1/4 inches
Blue paper 2 inches

Paper is Brazzil and pattern pieces are DCWV

I took the blue squares and embossed them using the cuddlebug Birthday folder.
but first I applied Stampin Up Craft Ink to the folder before running it thru

Had to have Mickey somewhere RIGHT....
So I created the balloons using circle that I played with in DS
I stamped the saying using stamps set from My Paper Studio and Black Stampin Up ink

I used basic gel pens for the accents and brown ribbon

Thanks

My family is just starting to plan our annual trip for the

Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party!

So I wanted to get inspired for our trip and scrap

some of last years photos.

Plus I wanted to share one of my favorite things to do

when I go to any of the Disney Parks.

I save everything from all the brochures, maps, door cards, napkins and I have even saved the mickey mouse confetti they put on the table is someone is celebrating a birthday!

If you have dinner at any of the sit down resturants during a special party event, look at the menu. Almost everytime we have had a cardstock special menu just for the event. Ask your server if you can keep it. They always do and they make a great background paper. You will see mine in a future project!

Guide to page:

Pattern Paper: Disney Magical meomories by My paper Garden

Black and Purple cardstocks- basic multi pack from AC Moore

Spider: Stretch Your Imagination page 45 cut at 3 1/2 inces (Should have cut a little bit larger)

Spider webs on edge of black photo backings done by my hand

Hello Everyone! This is day two of my blog. I am trying to get the word out on my blog. I contacted a wonderful layout person who does custom blog layouts with graphics. I love her work, but she is not able to do the layout will August. She is going on a break. I will be waiting for her. She is wonderful.
