I had such a wonderful time with this kit I actually created 3 layouts. My first layout is fun our July 2013 trip when we had a friend of my daughters with us as well as a special friend of the family.  They were so funny being silly with the Dino-Rama photospot.  This kit worked perfectly to highlight those magical memories.

My next layout is from November 2012 when the kids road Expedition Everest.  The photo of the kids at the peak of Everest is one of my all time favorites.  It's a tricky photo to caputre but they did great.  I really love the colors and the page starter and wordart made it super easy to create this layout.


My last layout I wanted to capture a moment when we were waiting to watch Festival of the Lion King.  At Animal Kingdom you can truly delight in the beauty that surrounds you.  This paper stack..again made it very easy to create this layout.


Don't forget to stop Natalie's Place Designs and grab this amazing kit...Spirit of Tibet. I know she will have a fabulous freebie waiting for you.  Also for more inspiration and great freebies stop by Lisa Campbell Designs and MJ-AJ Designs!  I wanted to share my frame cluster with all of you.  In the layout above I simply rotated it.  I can't wait to see what everyone creates with this new amazing kit.

Travel Agent - Go See Mickey

I am super excited to announce that I have just started working my dream job.  Anyone who has been following my blog knows that I love Disney..everything about Disney!  We have been several times and over the years and I have gotten lots of requests from people about what to do and how to do it.  

In February I attended a local travel show and visiting with the Disney cast member was a must do.  During our visit to his table I started talking to another Disney fan but quickly discovered that she was an owner of a travel agency who specializes in Disney travel.  We exchanged business cards and a few weeks later we meet for lunch. Talking with her about what her goals where for her travel agency and how she likes to conduct business I knew this was the right opportunity for me and she felt I was a great fit for her travel agency.  My mother always told me everything happens in GOD's timing!  

So without further a do introducing ME....



Now I actually have the ability to truly fulfil a dream and help others experience the magic of Disney. I do have a Facebook page as well if you would "like" my page that would be terrific.


My Facebook page is "Make Your Travel Magical"


Just send me a PM on Facebook and I will be happy to provide you with a quote.  My service is completely FREE and does NOT affect the price of your vacation package!!  I will take the time to provide you with suggestions, tips, and tricks to Make Your Travel Magical!
