Disney Junk Journal / Travel Journal (Post 4)

Journaling our 2019 Family Trip to Disney World

(View the first post; View the second post; View the third post.)





More of our family's trip and journal:




These fun, eclectic pages please me for unknown reasons. Maybe it's the cute picture of Finn on the bottom right with the journaling that his favorite park was "All of them" or maybe it's Shae asleep on the ottoman at the top of the left page.  The left page's view finder area, flips up:


It reveals more random pictures.

The abstract Mickey Mouse on the right side is another postcard we received from Disney before the trip. This time I completely covered the back with B&T paper.


Both of these pages are pictures from Disney buses.

Of course, we had to spend some time at the resort pools:


Usually by the time we took a break from the parks, we were all pretty tired, but we got to the pools a few times, and the kids loved it. The chipboard embellishments are from Carta Bella "Summer Splash."

The next page is all from Animal Kingdom.


No fancy stuff on this page either--only one little top-fold journaling spot at the bottom left. Otherwise just photos and journaling.


We're not foodies by any means, so we didn't want to spend a lot of time and money for restaurant experiences. We did go to the Sci Fi Theater for lunch one day. We'd been there years ago and liked it. Now, I don't recommend it. It was so dark we couldn't see our food at all. The kids' favorite part was the light-up cups they received with their milkshakes. The sparkly paper on the right is a pocket:


A couple more pictures (front and back) and one of the kid's "driver's license" is tucked in the pocket.

We were very excited for the next area:


Galaxy's Edge (the Star Wars area of Hollywood Studios) opened up about a week before our trip. It was crowded, but not too bad. The newest ride, "Rise of the Resistance," wasn't open yet, and we were luck to get only about a 45-minute wait for "Smuggler's Run." The left side is just pictures from the area and the ride, and the right is the area's park guide. It's affixed to the back of one of the postcards Disney sent us.  Here's the guide unfolded:


Darth Vader is on the front of the postcard. I added a little star charm on a string to the postcard



The top right photo and the journaling is about Finn building his droid.

More miscellaneous pics on the next page:



The next "busy" pages are all Toy Story Land and Toy Story characters: 






The two black tags have more pics, front and back:


And, there's a little journaling card on the bottom right behind the monkeys. 

The next page has the Disney photo from Pirates of the Caribbean:


The right side is a half page, cut with a waved edge using the Dylusions ruler as a guide.  It's easier to see from the other side:


The right Pooh-themed page has a band with a tag:


Shae was the PERFECT age for the Pooh-themed areas and loved meeting the 100-acre wood characters.

The next pages are darker, with pictures from the Tower of Terror and the Haunted Mansion.


I made the background with white and grey paint and added the argyle decisions with a stamp.

Back to colorful on the next pages:


My grandkids LOVE rainbows, so the pics are all rainbow related. The Mickey buttons are from my stash. The striped B&T paper makes a great place to add journaling.

Thanks for checking out this journal. I hope you look at the other posts in this series too.  It's gotten pretty long. Maybe 2 posts left?

Cheers,
Ms. Molly
