Northern Exposure is Released!

I'm so excited by Natalie's Place Designs release today of Northern Exposure. It's so perfect for so many wonderful Disney layouts... Canada!, Wilderness Lodge or Campground, Whispering Caynon Cafe, Fronterland, Big Thunder Mountain, character meet and greets, and my absolute Disney Must Do..Le Cellier!

Check out this amazing kit..

Here is my first layout from our meet and greet at Animal Kingdom with Koda from Brother Bear.  Isn't it great the possiblities this kit offers?


My favorite I've saved for last is my Le Cellier layout.  We love to eat at Le Cellier in Canada.  My husband's family is from Canada so this is always the first place he likes to go when visiting EPCOT is Canada.

Now as always her release would not be complete without a freebie.  I thought I would share the wordart and the journal block.  I hope you like it.

MouseScrappers Weekly Challenge 30 Mar - 5 Apr 2011

I almost missed this weekly challenge and I'm so glad I took a peak as I LOVE the participation prize!!  This weeks host is Donna (poohaddict) which as you can tell the prize fits the name. :)

Here is the challenge....It is going to be All about Disney in your life!
Anything from Birthday Parties, Clothing, Disney Store's, Movies, Anything BUT NOT FROM A PARK! Check out his prize!!!

Oh my goddness how was I ever going to do this layout.  I have 1000's at Disney World photos but very few from home.  Some from Disney on Ice and H.S. Musical on Ice but I wanted to find something special.  I found a photo of Adrianna from 2007 when I was taking Easter photos and found the perfect picture.  It all started with Minnie Mouse.  Our very first trip to Disney World was in May 2007 so just prior to our trip I took this photo.


I love how it turned out!  She was so little here and what a magical moment.  Who would of thought that one trip to Disney World in 2007 could of started a love for Disney that is now part of our daily lives. 

Wishing everyone  a magical evening.

Sneak Peak

Natalie's Place Designs has a great new kit coming your way.  It's filled with lots of fun elements and papers for all us who live in the north..."Aye"  It's also perfect for one of my favorite places to eat at EPCOT!  Stay tuned...

Wishing all of you a magical day!

Here is the layout I made from her charity kit.  It was so much fun using this for Duffy.  Since he is such a new character I haven't been able to find many kits or other goodies to complete those type of scrapbook layouts.  This kit is amazing for Duffy!!


To help out with such a great cause I wanted to provide a freebie as an add on to Huey's Uncle.

Meeting MouseScrappers Sandy and Susan

A few weeks ago I was able to meet Susan and her family while we were both vacationing during Spring Break.  She had such terrific creativity on MouseScrappers and it was so much fun to see her at Ohana's for Breakfast. 

Susan and me!
Click HERE to go to Susan's blog Been There Done That Going Back.  I always look forwarding to her layouts as she had great ideas and gives me all kinds of scraplift possiblities!

This evening I was so lucky to be able to meet Sandy from MouseScrappers and Natalie's Place Design Creative Team.  I'm here for a conference in Orlando and she was returning from her brothers wedding and she took time out of her busy schedule to share dinner and time at Hollywood Studios. 

She has such an amazing talent and she is such an inspiration for me and my layouts.  We had a great dinner at 50's Prime Time and had to ride Tower of Terror!  So much for the "No Tower for an hour!" rule.  I had so much fun talking about scrap booking and learning about Sandy and her love of Disney. 

Sandy and me!

It was so nice to meet you and I look forward to visiting with you again.  Your layouts are amazing and I can't wait to see what you have created next.  Click HERE to go to her blog at Sand and 2 Pearls. 

I hope to see both of you real soon!

Spring Fling MouseScrappers Kit Challenge Freebie

This month the kit challenge at MouseScrappers was created by Natalie's Place Designs entitled Spring Fling. I fell in love with this kit instantly and knew this is what I wanted to use for my Disney World Spring Break cover, spine, and back for our book. 

Here is the Cover for our Spring Break 2011 Disney trip.  We just returned on Sunday although today it seems like a lifetime ago. :) 

Believe it or not as we travel 9 hours to Disney World each trip my husband drives and what else..I scrapbook on the way done to Disney World and then organize photo's on the way home from Disney World.  I had seen so many great layouts on Mousescrapper with this kit that I tired my hand at making my first alpha!  I made this alpha while riding 9 hours. He-he.  I thought I would offer it as a freebie to go along with Natalie's great kit!


Click HERE for the Alpha and HERE for the numbers!
I hope you like it.  I know it's a little late in the month to be offering a freebie but I've been so busy and wanted to finish my cover. I will most likely change out the photo's once I finish reviewing and adding borders to my photopass photos but for now I'm pretty statisfied with how it turned out. 

Wishing everyone a magical evening!
