Personalize It

I've previously posted the Autograph Book I made for my son to collect character signatures, but I put a little personal twist on the book this past weekend.  We were celebrating my niece & nephews birthdays and thought that since they'd be heading to Disneyland later this year they should have an autograph book no one else in the park could possibly have!

Here they are:

Almost as soon as my son could walk we got annual passes to Disneyland. I grew up going to that magical place A LOT, and I wanted to create some of the same memories for my son. Since I keep scrapbooking in mind when I do nearly everything in life, I wanted to create a fun way to keep track of the characters he met on his many visits to come. I snagged this free Disney Autograph Book step-by-step instruction sheet while cruising through Michael's Craft Store one day, so I decided to give it a go! I made a few modifications because I didn't own all of the cartridges needed, but I like how it turned out anyhow!

Magical Memories

Today's post is close to my heart...I recently took my Gram (or Tutu as my son calls her) to Disneyland for the first time in ages. It was such a special day for the three of us, that I wanted to make sure to display it in a extra special way!!! This is only the 1st half of the album, the 2nd half is in progress...stay tuned, it's Tutu's Trip to the Zoo ;)

Big Boy Room

The time has come & my son is ready to move on to bigger & brighter things...i.e., his Big Boy Room! I wanted to make sure it was EXTRA special for him, especially with a new little brother or sister on the way. My son LOVES to go to Disneyland with Mommy & Daddy, and loves pretty much ALL things Disney, so deciding on the theme of the room was the easy part. I didn't want to spend a ton of money making it his own, so I collaborated with my baby sister and came up with the idea to decorate with scrapbook frames filled with pictures of Brody with his favorite Disney characters as the focal point on one of the walls. Here is the result...

All characters were created using the Mickey & Friends Cricut Cartridge.
