Disney's Tinker Bell layout





Hi,guys,
Well after working 2 out of the 4 night shifts I got sick.
It has passed after 3 days so I’m my old self again.
I have Disney on the brain as we leave for our trip in 48 days .
I can’t wait.
So keeping in the Disney mood I made this layout from last
year’s trip.
It’s of Tinker bell in Pixie Hallow...
We had such fun; she was very chatting, speaking even faster than I can
And that’s fast lol...She was very kind to pose with us and solo when I
Requested a picture of her for a friend’s daughter....

In this layout I used the following items;


Cricut’s- storybook
cartridge-









Hibiscus
(paper co. fuchsia) (cardstock pastel pink)
page 46 @ 1 ½ inches,



Leaf on page29 (plus shadow) in bright neon green and dark
 (shadow) but also bright green,

For photo corners, page 121 in orange and
yellow @ 2 ½ inches,

Orange and orange stickles...Flower pot cut x 4 @ 1 ½ inches pop dotted to make 2 pots,
Cricut’s-my world cartridge-

Cricut’s-happily ever after cartridge-

For threads spool page 35 @ 2 ½ inches in brown
 and pastel pink,
Multi coloured fibres for the thread...dmc floss for tree fibres...
chalked the edges of typed words..

Cricut-New Arrivals ,baby girl album

This baby girl album was made using Martha Stewarts 8x8 chipboard white album,




I covered it with Me and My Big Ideas, pretty baby paper. (and a few 8x8 loose pages I found at Micheals)

I used cricut’s New Arrival, Storybook,Going Places,Graphically Speaking and Paper Dolls cartridges for the diecuts.(I think that's all of them)
I also glittered it up with Stickles (love them)...and inkssentials-glossy accents(dries to clear glossy finish)....
