Disney Junk Journal / Travel Journal (Post 5)

Journaling our 2019 Family Trip to Disney World

(To view the first post in this series, click here, Post two, Post three, Post four.)



Thanks for staying with me for the FIFTH post about this journal.

More miscellaneous pictures I just like on this page. I did the pink and purple background with Dylusions paints.


Finn loved the smashed penny machines throughout Disney World. The top right is Finn and Neal smashing a penny. They were a pretty cheap souvenir (until we bought as many as we did). That natural paper is a flap. We had a nice arcade that Finn loved at the resort. It was a great way to entice the kids to leave the parks, and there were games we all enjoyed.


All the pics to the right under the flap are from the arcade.

Although it was only September, Jess, Neal, Finn, & Shae went to Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween after-hours party at the Magic Kingdom. They loved it!


They dressed in Lilo & Stitch theme (Hawaiian for Jess & Neal).

While they did that, Tom and I headed to the piano bar at the Boardwalk, and I included a picture of that under the "Boo Crew" flap.


There's a jack-o-lantern charm on this page too, which is easier to see in the above picture.


The right side is a flap too. I didn't post a pic, but underneath are more scenes from Not So Scary Halloween.  I also glued one of their admittance bracelets to the bottom of the page.

The next page is a pocket page on the left and snapshots on the right.


You can see the luggage tag on its side at the top left used as a page tab. The Not So Scary Halloween guide fits in the left pocket:


The next pages are all from Epcot, which the kids liked way better than I thought they would at their age:


There's a pocket on the left with more pictures:


(front & back of pocket insert)


And the right page folds out:



More fun-at-Epcot pics, and a little tuck spot in the middle under Donald Duck with a picture in it.

More fun pics with no extras on the next pink pages:


The next pages are all about meeting characters:


The right side folds out:


It reveals a yellow/orange page that also folds out:


Here are all the pages open:


On the yellow & white polka-dot page, there's a pocket with a bookmark-style tag with journaling front and back:


These character pages were all designed well before we left on the trip. I just added pics and embellishments.

Thanks for following along. ONE post left about this journal!

Disney Junk Journal / Travel Journal (Post 3)

Journaling our 2019 Family Trip to Disney World

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




The next page in my junk journal is a colorful bunch of miscellaneous pics:



I forgot to take a picture, but there's a little bookmark-size tag that comes out of the polka dot pocket on the right side.  I made the background with paint and used the negative of a punch to make the Mickeys.

The next few pages all contain pics from Magic Kingdom--mostly princesses.


There's a little tuck spot at the bottom left with a picture of our "little princess" with a face full of chocolate ice cream.  The castle on the right is a post card Disney sent us before the trip. It makes a nice extra page, and I have a couple more in this journal. All the extra pages have been affixed with washi tape hinges, front and back.


After you turn the page, you can see the markings on the back of the postcard. I put a pocket on it for a long tag.


And that tag has yet another pocket with a slimmer tag on it.


The back of the first tag.

The next two pages are from our resort, Art of Animation. It had a whole Cars themed area.


These papers are from Sandy Lion.  There's a pocket to the left.


It has this pull-out. And, on the back...


  1. ...it looks like this.  I just discovered I could add another picture or embellishment here!





The next layouts have Finding Nemo on the left and
some miscellaneous snapshots on the right.








The right side has a pocket and tag on the bottom. At the top, the area with the picture from the bus actually folds right and there are more pictures and a pocket with a tag under there. 

The next two pages are some of my favorites.


These are just all fun pictures from around the parks and resort. I stamped the teacups on the right side.


The left side opens up...


...and opens up more to a four-panel colorful fold-out.


These are the three panels on the back of the fold-out. The fourth panel is glued to the original page. Most of the papers on these pages are from Echo Park.

Thanks so much for looking at my blog and journal project. More posts are on the way!

Disney Junk Journal / Travel Journal (Post 2)

Journaling our 2019 Family Trip to Disney World

(To view the first post in this series, click here.)




The next pages are of our hotel & suite and our Magic Band (your ticket/room key/payment option at Disney World).

The left side has a horizontal band with two tags behind it.





I fastened both tags together with a ribbon so they make a little booklet.  All of the pictures on the fronts and backs are of our suite. I like using black with white ink for a little different contrast. 







The right of the page is a pocket that holds a resort map and one of our Magic Bands.

I used a LOT of different materials for this junk journal, including some pieces that are probably pushing 20 years old. My very first try at scrapbooking was a Disney Vacation album, and I probably haven't thrown any extras away. This page has some newer paper from Echo Park, but that's all I'm sure of.

Besides old and new papercrafting materials, I including lots of bits and pieces of Disney ephemera we either picked up on the trip at the parks or in our room, along with a lot of pieces that were mailed to us from Disney before our trip: ads, instructions, itineraries, etc.



These two pages are made with Echo Park papers. The left side is a large pocket (cropped to close to see very well in the photo), and the right is a shallow pocket with two small tags.

The pull-out from the left side, including a red cloth Mickey patch from my stash.
The other side of the pull-out.


The small tags on the right have a Mickey punched out at the bottom.

Thanks for reading this post. More of my Disney Junk Journal coming soon!
