Auld Lang Syne Released

It's Friday and the start of MouseScrappers Speed Scrap Marathon and Natalie's Place Design has the perfect kit for your scrapping stash.

 Introducing Auld Lang Syne

The kit contains 20 papers, 8 flowers, 2 leaves, 11 ribbons, 1 ricrac, 1 clip, 3 frames, 4 star elements, 4 balloons, 3 buttons, 2 bows, 7 fireworks elements, 2 champagne glasses, a champagne bottle, a party hat, 3 party blowers, a sequin scatter, a confetti scatter, 3 clock elements, a disco ball, bubbles, a popping cork, a watch, 7 word tag elements, a castle, and 2 alphas.

The colors and elements are spectular as always.  I just love all the bling, sparkle, and color palate.

Here are some terrific savings but purchases a bundle.  I'm a HUGE fan of bundles.

My first layout I wanted to highlight our New Year's Eve 2012 which we spent at Disney World.  They actually opened up the parking lot behind main street and blocked it all off for a big party.  Lots of places to sit, live music and a photo opporunity in front of the carriage.  They had the event both December 30th and December 31st.  We participated on December 30th as we knew that Magic Kingdom would be at full capacity before noon.  

I just love the premades as it make it super easy for me to create my page and still add my own touches and title.  My next layout I wanted to highlight the amazing fireworks!  The fireworks on New Year's Eve are the most amazing that I have ever seen.  They are not just over Magic Kingdom it encompass all of the Sevens Seas Lagoon.  Simply STUNNING!

My final page was also a photo from the New Year's Eve Party at Magic Kingdom.  

I love the colors and combinations this kit as to offer.  So many ways to showcase your favorite photos and family events.  Be sure to check out MJ-AJ Designs and Lisa Campbell Designs for more inspiration and some wonderful freebies.  For my freebie I wanted to share my cluster frame.

Snow day!

It's a cold and snowy Thursday here in Alabama! It started snowing (which it never does) around 3:00pm and by 4:00pm my son's bus had gotten stuck and I had to go get him. Unforunately then I couldn't get up the hill so we had to park the van and walk up the hill, down the street and then home. It was snowing hard and the wind was blowing so we had to walk backwards. After the snow stopped then the kids loved it!!  Time to play and have fun.

Even "Minnie" mouse loved the snow.  She was running around like crazy!

I'd say he is up to no good...

Let it Snow...Let it Snow!

The beauty of Mother Nature.  Stunning!

Wishing you a magical evening!

MouseScrappers Speed Scrap Marathon Weekend

Hey everyone it's that time a year again when MouseScrappers hosts it's 4th Annual Speed Scrap Marathon. It's a weekend filled with 16 speed scraps with wonderful participation prizes, goody bags, and medals.   For the second year in a row I'm hosting a speed scrap!  I'm super excited!!  I have lots of pages I need to get done as I'm waaaaay behind this year!! Click HERE to read all about it!!

So without further a do let's do the must do...Announcing Speed Scrap 140 with ME!

I created this announcement using Natalie's Place Designs Mad For Tea kit.  It's a awesome kit with wonderful page starters, wordarts, and paper stacks to coordinate.  

She also donated this wonderful Participation Prize if you complete my Speed Scrap! Fastpass Journallers are perfect for any layout and have you heard the buzz around Disney that paper fastpasses will soon be a thing of the past.  Check out the information about the new FASTPASS+ soon we will all be wearing wrist bands with all our vacation planning and reservations!  

I'm an organizer as well so to assist in keeping us all on track I created some tools of the trade.  I first created two different checklists.  One which allows you to write down each of the seven rules 4 to a page and the next one allows you to write down each of the seven rules but alongside is space to write your credits.

Also a huge help for me last year was a spreadsheet with a list of all the hosts, times, and chat information.  I also used it to "check" when I was done and to list my deadline times so I could priorities my layouts so I could go for the "Gold"

Last but not least in November we dine at Les Chefs de France with my wonderful MouseScrapper friends Brenda, Lisa, Brad, and their grandson Caleb.  My main reason for dining was to meet Remy.  He had his own personal assistant who we know and love from Hollywood Studios.  It was terrific to dine with friends and meet and greet with new ones.

I just love the greens in this kit as well!!  Be sure to stop by Natalie's Place Designs to grab this stunning new kit as well as a little freebie.  As always stop by Lisa Campbell Designs and MJ-AJ Designs for more inspiration as well as a few little freebies of their own.  This time I wanted to share a page starter from my Les Chefs de France layout.  I hope you enjoy it and it inspires you to create your own magical layout.
