Magic Instant Album Page 2

Hello all. If you are just tuning in I've decided to take the Magic Instant Album and enhance it.

Today I'm working on the second page. I decided not to go as overboard : ) Here is a list of materials I used:
Magic paper - Memories
White Cardstock
Magic Epoxy Stickers

This was a simple quick page. I wanted to give my self some journaling room and I love the glitter stars so I trimmed a section our of the Memories paper. In trimming it to fit the full 8" length of the page I got some of the red trim. I decided to cover the cut with the white paper and this also gives me a place for the picture that I will put there. I went a head and filled in the journaling for this one because I know that I want to put a picture of my kids first ride on an air plane. Lastly I added the I <3 Magic t-shirt sticker.
You could easily add something to the dots at the bottom of the page. Stickles or Pearls would add dimension.

There will not be a page tomorrow because we are headed on a big field trip but check back on Wed.

Magic Instant Album Page 1

Hello everyone! I told you I wanted to play with this Disney stuff and I have. First a little back ground. I decided that this album will be for my up coming trip (Jan 09) to California. I will be in Anaheim staying across from Disney and my kids and Mom will be coming with me. Needless to say there will be some great pictures that need to be documented. {I've been behind for so long I don't know what it is like to be caught up so I didn't think it was to early to start now for the album to hold those pictures.}



Ok above is the instant album. Don't get me wrong this album is a great album if you just glued in some pictures but I wanted to show you how you can take it to Scrapp'n 102.

Here is a list of items I used on this page:
Magic Instant Album
Liquid Pearls White Opal
Stickles Frosted Lace
Stickles Gunmetal (Stickles are on order)
Tangerine Thickers
Magic Fun Rub-ons




I think I went a little overboard on this page but I really wanted to show you what could be done. You could just use one or two of these colors or techniques and get a great "Pop".

Ok first since I knew that I would be going to Disney in 2009 I added the numbers 09 from the Tangerine thickers. This in itself gives it glam. I love glitter on my pages but I will not glue glitter to my pages. (I had enough of that in Vacation Bible School) and this adds dimension to the page.


Next I wanted a rub-on so I chose {snapshots of our trip}. This is from the Magic Fun rub-on swatch book. I have to say these are great rub-ons. I laid the rub-on down gave it two swipes with the stick and it was on.


Last I started playing with my stickles and liquid pearls. I knew that I wanted a sticked look around the photo but I didn't want to break out the sewing machine and knock the dust off. For this I used the White Opal Liquid Pearls.


I also wanted the Magic to look magical. For this I used Stickles Frosted Lace. I just traced the word magic so that when the light hit it the glitter would shine.


Lastly I thought about how companies have been adding glitter to different accents on a page and I thought I'd make my own. I chose 4 circles and the center of Mickey's hand and added Stickles Gunmetal. I hope that you can see these circles in some of the other pictures I didn't get a good one of just the circles.

If you are wondering what the strange dashes are off of the word magic - The bottle of stickles fell over and rolled across the "stitches" around the picture.

I hope that you will check back as I figure out what to do with the other pages. If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Disney SALE

I have gotten all of the Magic line up on the store site and now it's 20% off! Come by and check it out. It is the cutest stuff I've seen for Disney in a while. I'm a classic disney girl myself and this just seems very classic to me.

I am going to get to go to Disney Land in January and then Disney World in Feb with the family. I am hoping to use some of this stuff for all these trips. This much travel is not normal for me but it happens on occasion that I get a bunch of trips all at once.

Have a good one!

Magic Line In

I'm excited to tell you that Magic is in at Everything Scrapp'n I've been eagerly awaiting this line to come in. It is one of the most "Disney" looking lines I've seen in a while. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do and I hope that I'm able to bring you some examples of this product very very soon.

Holidays!

Hello all!

I just wanted to stop in and talk about my holiday a bit. I had so much going on and it was great. It was just a small family gathering with the hubby, kids and my parents. I also had the sale at the store going on and cooking in the kitchen. I love to bake. My son insist that he have a pumpkin pie and my daughter wanted apple so my husband instructed me to cook them the night before so that they could set.


OK OK I know - the apple pie looks bad. The brown sugar clumped up. So that is the night before. Now for the big day. OMG do I love cooking a southern Thanksgiving. I made stuffing, mac & cheese, mashed potatoes, giblet gravy, and green beans. My hubby took care of the homemade cranberry sauce, vegetable casserole, candied sweet potatoes, and he fried the turkey.




Now that it is all cooked - we eat! Duh right? Well Todd had a blast stuff'n his plate (twice since he forgot the cranberry sauce) He is also not the photographer of the family.


After all this I took a break on the couch, watched some football and then started packaging ALL those great orders ya'll sent my way!!! The rest of the weekend was pretty wet but super busy. It was quite a site to see me running in the rain to pack boxes and keep all the stuff dry.

Thanks to all of my great customers! You made my Thanksgiving weekend AWESOME. I hope to get some scrapp'n in really soon and bring you something other than updates on my life and what is coming in at the store.
