monday...again!

One of my resolutions for this year is to make a scrapbook album (or two!) for all my Disney pictures. I have pictures from all the parks (some of them I've been there twice!) from 2008 to 2010 and I really want to get them scrapped. I did a rough count of the layouts I want to do and it came up to about 60 layouts!!!!!! So, I figured I better get scrapping....

Like I mentioned yesterday, Trail Makers are running a challenge in their blog and the challenge is to make your own embellies and if you know me, I make most of my embellies so I couldn't pass this challenge.

Here's my first Disney layout of 2011:

Supplies: cardstock: colorbok, DCWV; patterned paper: Sandylion; embellishments: all are handmade by me; ink: Craft Smart; other: Pazzles to cut title, flourishes, mickey icon; cuttlebug embossing folder and alpha; rhinestones from Joann

I used a Pagemaps sketch for inspiration and the Counterfeit Kit that I talked about earlier. The pictures are from Toontown in the Magic Kingdom. The flowers I handmade using my Pazzles, as well as the black & glittered mickey icons and the title and swirls. The Disney bingo card I designed in photoshop and the printed it out and glittered the Disney part. I love how it turned out! The Mickey is also printed with my printer in a semi gloss photo paper and then cut out. It's way cheaper than to buy stickers and it looks just as wonderful! I embossed the red squares with my cuttlebug. Speaking of which, I made my own foam thickers using the cuttlebug and the Harmony alphabet set and I love the dimension it gives the layout!

Here are some close ups of my handmade embellies:
