See Ya Real Soon

 Last Page of Disney Layouts

My last page in the scrapbook. I double-matted the photo with black & white. I used a black background with a red Doodlebug polka dot paper inside. The Mickeys are punches. Lastly, I found and printed "See ya real soon!" online

Thanks so much for following my scrapbooking and our trip to Disney World, whether you have checked every day [Mary--my sister] or got here sometime later via Pinterest. Nothing is more fun to scrapbook than a vacation with little kids.

See ya real soon!

Walking Around the World

 Why Our Feet Got Tired at Disney World

This layout is all about walking, and walking, and walking. Or riding too if you were Finn & Shae. I used elements from Echo Park's Magical Adventure, along with some old CTMH papers. I made the title using a Tim Holtz Thinlits Sizzix die, which I added some black Nuvo Crystal Drops to.

Although only a one-page layout, I also added an extra photo insert for this layout.

ONE LAYOUT LEFT, AND SCRAPBOOKING THIS TRIP IS DONE!

Thank you for looking at my art,

Ms. Molly

Flying to Disney World

 More Pics from Finn & Shae's First Airplane Ride

Shae and Finn were really good on the flights, even the longer ones. They probably enjoyed the snacks the most.

I created my own background paper with blue card stock and a cloud stencil.

I stamped each page a little differently.

Again, I had too many pictures for my layout, so I added a photo insert that held six more pictures from the flights.

Thanks for stopping at my blog!

Flying to Disney Layout

Back to the First Day of Vacation

I can see the end of my Disney scrapbook! Now I'm finishing up with all the odds and ends. This layout has lots of airport photos, both from Des Moines and Atlanta.

On the right side you can see an 8x12 added flip flap. Unlike the other photo-insert pages I've used, this one isn't divided into 4x6 photo slots. It's more like a mini page to decorate.

This is the page as it will appear in my book with the insert turned.

I used retired CTMH papers and cut out the title and Des Moines airport code with my Cricut.

This page is the same, only with the Atlanta airport code and pics from the Atlanta airport.

Thanks for looking!

Cinderella's Castle

 The Iconic Symbol of Magic Kingdom

So many pictures of the castle at Magic Kingdom....

I used another paper from Sandy Lion for the background, which included the castle silhouette at the topo right. The paper castle on the right was cut from my Cricut, and I added Blue Lagoon Nuvo Glitter drops.

"Castle" was cut out on my Sizzex Big Shot with a Thinlets Tim Holtz alphabet.

The photo at the bottom right was made by Disney and included in our Photo Pass extras.

Notice the two photobombers in the bottom left picture of to the right (Tom & Finn).

Stay Safe,

Mad Tea Party

 Disney Classic

First, this page should probably have been an Alice in Wonderland theme, but I didn't have any Alice paper, and this Winnie the Pooh paper from Sandy Lions' Disney paper stack went well with the colors and had a lot of circular pattern to it.  

The title is done with stickers, and I added the Tigger chipboard character. The pictures on the ride aren't the best because they were at night. The bottom picture of Shae was in one of the original cups located at a shop in Disney Springs.

Have a great day!

Disney Transportation

 "Kings of the Bus"

If you stay on Disney property, you become very familiar with Disney transportation, especially the bus. We tended to take a lot of bus pictures--waiting for the bus, happy on the bus to be going somewhere fun, or dead tired on the bus on the way back to our suite. 

I used a mixture of Best of Heidi Swapp papers and Echo Parks Magical Adventure elements, plus Mickey punches and black Nuvo Crystal drops. "King of the Bus" is the term we used when sitting on the very back bench seat that sits up higher than everyone else. It's also one of the worst seats because it sits over the engine and is hot.

The strips that mimic roads are just a chevron paper cut into strips. The picture of the bus at the top was found on the Internet. I love the picture of the kids hanging on the fence anxiously waiting our bus.

Thanks for looking!

Rainbow Days

 Disney World Rainbow Favorites

Finn and Shae LOVE Rainbows. If given a choice, they chose something with a rainbow theme over anything else.

The background paper is from the Sandy Lion Disney paper stack. I cut out the rainbow on my Cricut, and I handwrote the journaling and title. I added a rainbow of colors of Nuvo Crystal Drops to the title and the journaling. (That's a glare on Jess's face I didn't notice until uploading this photo.)

Thanks for looking!

Funny Pics from Disney World

 A Layout of Leftovers

This layout is just a bunch of funny pics from around Disney World. People sleeping, hiding from the camera, or just wearing or doing something that brings back a good memory.

I formatted this two-page layout as if it was a set of two file folders. The folders are just cardstock cut to look like a folder. The "back" of the folders only tucks just behind the front part, and I used real folders and traced them to make the shape look real.

The background patterned paper is from The Best of Heidi Swapp paper stack.  Except for the "Our favorite thing" piece, all of the words are also cut from a piece from the same paper stack.

The right page is pretty much the same except for the tab on the folder is on the right side.

I had a lot of photos for this layout, so I added an insert for six more photos to put between the layouts.

Thanks for looking at my blog!

Magic Kingdom Layout

 Classic Main Street, U.S.A.

I hadn't done a white background layout yet, so I went with that here. I like the starkness and the contrast between the pictures and other papers against the white background.

I used some black cardstock, and some scraps from my Echo Park paper pack Magic Adventure. The large Mickey is an old sticker I had, and I added some Nuvo crystal drops. The title is made from a chipboard alphabet I had in my stash. I also added a "hidden Mickey" Nuvo drop as the period after "St." The phone at the bottom is a photo that came with our Photo Pass.

This page has more papers from Echo Park and some Mickey punches. The long picture at the top is a postcard we picked up several trips ago. There's nothing like watching kids' excitement as they walk down Main Street toward Cinderella's Castle for the first time.

Have a Magical Day!

Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween

 Dance Party!

As part of Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween, there's a big dance party. Shae and Finn had a lot of fun. It didn't even phase Shae when she was knocked over by Sully (last photo).

The pictures were all taken at night with some weird lighting, but by printing them all a smaller size and not lining them up straight, it gives it a party feel. "dance party" is made with stickers, and the phrases are all from Tim Holtz Idea-ology. The paper is from DCWV collage art paper stack.

Thanks for looking!

More and More Rides

 Miscellaneous Ride Photos Layout

This layout is all those "extra" photos I wanted to include but either I didn't have enough pics for a full ride layout, I had too many pics for my layout, or I missed the photo when doing a previous layout.

Using scraps from my Echo Park Magical Adventure paper pack and washi tape, I tried to give this an old scrapbook feel. I even hand wrote pretty sloppily what the photos were of beside them with black ink.

Same on this side of the layout. Such happy faces on these rides!

Thanks for looking at my blog!

Jessy / Jessie Layout

 Disney World's Best-Dressed Tourist

Jess prides herself on looking the part. This Jessy / Jessie layout showcases Jess's best Disney Tourist Look. It's made with Echo Park's Magical Adventure papers with some leftover from Woody & Jessie stickers.

In case you can't read the journaling well (done on my vintage typewriter), here are Jess's must-haves for a Disney tourist: Ears, Sunglasses, Magic Band, Battery-Operated Fan, Cooling Towel, Pin Lanyard, and Fanny Pack. 

Cheers,

Ms. Molly

Millennium Falcon Smuggler's Run

 Another Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Layout

This layout is from the Millennium Falcon ride. They're just a little different, but the two pages are mostly the same papers from CTMH with added gold metallic paper to mimic the inside of the Millennium Falcon cockpit.

I found the sign in the upper left online. Note the time I took on the two pictures on the right to wait until most of the people were out of the way.

I added a lot of Nuvo Crystal drops to look like stars. I (obviously) handwrote the journaling with a gold metallic marker.

Again, May the Force Be With You,

--Ms. Molly

More Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party

 "Family Memories"

This is just a quick layout of some more pictures from Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. I like how happy they all are in the first picture and then Finn and Shae are SO tired in the last two pictures on the side. Seems about right for every Disney day. This page was made with scraps from my Echo Park Magical Adventure paper pack. I added Nuvo Crystal Drops and a flat clear disc to the camera lens. The tickets were part of a paper pattern, and I fussy cut them out.

Stay safe,

--Ms. Molly

Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Layout

 Fun for all "four" of us!

This layout makes me laugh. Neal, Jess, & I rode the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Disney Studios, and a guy from the single rider line joined us and sat by me. I really didn't want him in the picture, so I cut out a picture of Tom's face and put it over that guy's face.  Just to make it more ridiculous I used the happiest picture I could find, scaled it too big, and popped it up with dimensional adhesive. The other photo on the page is from our Photo Pass disc.

(And the t-shirt "Tom" has on is a Hard Rock t-shirt. LOL!)

Rock on,

--Ms. Molly

Disney Treats Layout

 Yum!

This layout is for some of best pictures we took of treats. Of course, the rainbow "Happy Bar" was the number one treat.

The background paper is from the stack "Best of Heidi Swapp." I also used a couple pages from an old travel journal, and a few stickers from Doodlebug's "Bar-B-Cute" stickers set. I wrote the journaling by hand. "Yum" was stamped with a retired CTMH set, and I made the exclamation point with black cardstock, my small Mickey punch, and a sticker.

I don't usually like to use stickers, especially the kind with the white margins, but I learned this trick from Dyan Reavely: If you outline everything on a page in black ink, it makes all the details more coherent, and that's what I did on this layout. I also added a few Nuvo Dot drops in the corner of each page.

Thanks for looking!

Tower of Terror Layout

 Welcome to the Twilight Zone . . .

The Hollywood Tower of Terror is a great ride and always deserves a layout.

I cut out the spider & webs and the title with my Cricut. The brown cardstock is the background, and the black layer of cardstock has the edge punched with a Martha Stewart punch. I used black ink all around the page and on the webs and letters.

The bottom right photo is Jess & Neal's ride photo. The picture of the elevator door is from our photo pass. The journaling is the script that Rod Sterling narrates when you get on the ride.

Thanks for stopping at my blog!

The Magic Kingdom Depot Layout

Add Ons to Typical Disney Themed Paper 

I bought this piece of Disney copyrighted paper as a single sheet off a store rack. I don't know why. I bet I've had something similar for every Disney scrapbook I've made. The over-sized Mickey silhouette looks great, but then it's always a challenge deciding how to add pictures yet still show the paper. 

This time I added only one picture and a few embellishments to the bottom and the right. Then I added Nuvo drops to the paper and embellishments for some dimension and to make it sparkle a little.  Here are some places I added the drops:

(ebony black and pale gold)

(morning dew)

(simply white, pale gold, ebony black, & blue lagoon glitter)

Thanks for looking at all my Disney layouts! I can see the end (kind of). I'm defintely ready to start on some Christmas themed projects.

Pirates of the Caribbean Layout

A Magic Kingdom Classic

The background of this page is black cardstock, then the brown piece from the Sandy Lion Disney stack of papers (I know this is actually themed for Peter Pan, but it works), and then the blue paper on top. I tore, crumpled, and ink distressed the brown and blue papers' edges and added a few creases in the center and inked those to make everything look old and more like a treasure map. I printed the title scroll with Word, using a text box and shape. "Yippeeeeee!" is an old sticker, but I thought it worked with Jess's & Neal's bored looks, which I blew up from the ride photo, because that was my only picture from Pirates.

Thanks for checking out my blog!
