Disney Pixar Blog Hop

Welcome to the Disney Pixar Blog Hop!

If you are looking for my Telling Your Story Through Scrapbooking Post, please go HERE!



If you love Disney Pixar and crafting, you came to the right place!  We have an entire month of fun planned for you, with a new group of crafting bloggers every Saturday in June.  

If you came here from Shawn's blog, then you are in the right place.  If you just happened upon this Blog Hop, make sure to head over to Shawn's blog so that you see the full hop from the very beginning. 



My friend is taking her children to Disneyland in a couple of   weeks.  She needed some autograph books for the kids.  

I created these 5x7 books using chipboard for the cover and    back, cardstock and my Zutter Bind-It-All.  I covered the chipboard with paper and cut the Mickey  and  Minnie out using my Cameo.  I used a font on my computer to create the Prince Thomas and Princess Caroline. 



I put the year on the inside as I made it too big for the cover.

I filled the album with white cardstock.  Typically, I decorate   the pages on the inside with the characters,  but in Disneyland the characters don't have a set autograph spot so it is hard to  predict who you will see. 



 I put a little Mickey on the back.

For my next project, I decorated a visor:





I cut this Mickey head out of a red resin rhinestone sticker sheet from The Buckle Boutique.  I used my cricut and the Disney Font cartridge.


I cut the sticker sheet rhinestone side down on the mat (and I tape clear packing tape all around the edges).  I use the Deep Cut Blade set to 6 and Multi Cut set to 2.  I slow down the speed to Medium, but sometimes the Gypsy has a mind of her own concerning the speed!!

We are planning a trip to WDW in November with the entire family - I am so excited!!!  I can't wait to ride the new 7 Dwarfs Mine Ride!!  




One of my favorite character memories is when my oldest was 9 or 10 and not really into the characters but his younger brother was.  While waiting for Tyler to get his book signed, Kramer was standing with his arms crossed tapping his toe.  Cruella De Ville came up and started harassing him asking him if he was "too cool" to see the characters - it was so funny!!! 




 What is your favorite Disney Memory?

Me-Ma Mini Album

Hello!! I have a very special gift to share with you and Frosted Designs!

I love making Christmas gifts and lately I have been making mini albums like crazy!  This album is for my friend's mom.

I used a chipboard book from my stash (yes I collect blank chipboard books like crazy) and even added a few pages.  I used paper from Hey Kids to cover the pages.  I love that the papers in the pad coordinate so well!!!

I added a title that I personalized on my Cameo to the front.  Mallory (the adorable girl inside the album) picked out the bright cover!  Tucked into my bow is a blue flower from Mini Paper Blooms.

Inside the first page is a few details to go along with this photo of my friend and her Mom.   

I included a pocket for notes and memories.

Love this file folder page packed with photos!

Here are Mallory and William.  They are adorable twins!

I used my circle punch to punch out the heart and lips! 

I love this polka dot paper!  I added a few extra dots!

Love that I could coordinate the girl paper and boy paper next to each other (not easy for me to use different patterned papers together)!

This orange paper is so fun!  It brings out the color of William's hair!

The back cover - a pretty stripe with a strong message!!

These papers coordinate so well - it was hard for me to choose which ones to use!!

Today I am showing you my Christmas Mini Albums I made to give as gifts.  I love making gifts!!

I started out with 4 pieces of chipboard per album.  I cut them to 5x7.

I used paper from Chrismas paper pads I found at Hobby Lobby.  I like that the paper coordinates.  I trimmed 4 pieces of paper so I had 2 of each kind for my album.

I found this title in the Silhouette Store and cut it out of black vinyl.  I adhered it to the front of each album.

I trimmed photo mats 6.25 x 4.25.

Christmas photos are generally busy and bright, so I wanted a simple album that would not compete with the photos.

On the back, I put santa and his reindeer, also from the silhouette store.

I used my Crop-A-Dile to punch two holes in each page and secured with binder rings.  I tied some coordinating ribbon on the rings.

I made each album a little different.  I can't wait to see what memories are placed inside!!

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Baby Mini Album

I am so excited to be featured at The Buckle Boutique Blog today!!!

I made a baby mini album to give as a gift.  I cut 4 pieces of chipboard into 5x7 rectangles for my pages.  I covered each page with scrapbook paper and adhered them with ATG tape.

I used Rhinestone Adhesive Sticker Sheets from The Buckle Boutique for "baby" on the cover.  You can get more information (or purchase some) HERE.

These are awesome - you can cut them in your Cricut Machine, Pazzles, Big Shot, Cuttle Bug and more!  The crystals are gel so you can totally cut on a curve!!

I use my Cricut to cut my letters.  I used my Gypsy to reverse the letters (you want to cut the paper backing side not the gel crystal side) and used my Deep Cut blade set to 5.  I just popped them out of the cuts and peeled off the paper backing!

I used images from the Nursery Tail cartridge and my Cricut Imagine for the embellishments.

I cut my photo mats to either 4.25 x 4.25 or 4.25 x 6.25 to fit photos.  I pop dot the embellishments in the corners to mom can slide the corner of the photo under.

More from Nursery Tail.

These cuts came from the Online Silhouette Store.  I put a pocket in my mini albums so mom can journal and add extra photos inside.

I used my Bind-It-All to bind the album.

I just love the sparkly title of my album!!!

Instagram Photo Mini Album (Sassy)

I made this cute little Mini Album with Instagram Photos in mind.

Today is my Sassy Day - the day I post at She's A Sassy Lady!!

I purchased this 6x6 chipboard album at Michaels.  The album has burlap on one side of each page, which gives it a fun texture to work with.

The ABC sticker on the cover was something I purchased long ago on clearance at Michaels and was super excited when the heart fit right over the "u" as if to say Love You!!

I got the rest of my images from the Silhouette Online store.

I love these papers!  I found this one from a DCWV stack called Timeless Type.  I added "Caught on Film" to one page and pop dotted a heart on the other.

I trimmed my photo mats to 4.25 x 4.25 to fit 4x4 pictures.

I used this paper from Tim Holtz and added a photo mat as well as a pocket page.  Smile and Say Cheese just seemed to fit!

This last page is once again from The Timeless Type stack and I pop-dotted Snap Shot to the top of each photo mat.

And since I love photos so much I just had to add this to the last page!!

Thanks for having me over today Sheila!!!
