Sick to my stomach!

I just found out that the 35 cards and tin that I donated for the auction to benefit the Make a Wish Foundation only went for $60! I literally could throw up right now knowing all the time I put into them. I think next year I will just be making a monetary donation. I know every penny helps, but I can't believe they went for this little.

WDW Layouts from 2005 & 2006

This was a LO of Tower of Terror that I did that opened up in the center of the page


Here it is opened up













This is one that I am very proud of! BC (Before Cricut!) I think that this Cinderella LO
took me longer than any LO I've ever made, but I was so happy how it turned out!






Two Paper Doll card creations

This card was made for a friend of mine when she graduated from Nursing School!




I made two of this card. One for my Son and one for his best friend. They both turned 8 on the same day. Notice that the I customized the snake from the Animal Kingdom cart to make an "8"

UGH!

I haven't been able to sign into the Cricut MB all afternoon and evening and it's driving me crazy!!!!

Mama Mia!

I was lucky enough to be able to see this movie this weekend and I have to say that is one of the best movies I've seen in a long time! I cannot remember laughing out loud as many times as I did at any movie! Of course it didn't hurt that it was loaded with ABBA songs! I was surprised to see the diverse crowd, the movie theater was packed with old, young, families, couples, singles and friends! Everyone was laughing and singing along. Meryl Streep was amazing in this film and so deserves an Oscar nomination! Julie Walters and Christine Baranski were the perfect choices for sidekicks with Julie Walters stealing the show. I'm telling you, if you get the chance to go see this movie, DO IT! Great storyline, great actors and great music will make for a great time!

Made my day!

I just received a wonderful RAK in the mail from one of my Cricut Board Sisters, offrocker1 AKA Brenda! Not only did she send me the Fiskar's Threading Water punch that I've been searching high and low for, but she also sent me a subscription to Card Maker Magazine AND a Starbucks giftcard!!!

Thank you so much Brenda for making my day!

I think I'm getting the hang of it!

Phew! I think I am FINALLY getting the hang of this blogging thing! Slowly, but surely I am finding my way around the dashboard and learning how to change settings and add things to my blog layout! I'm so excited that I was able to add my own song playlist today with some of my favorite Disney songs at the top of the list!

I am hoping to upload some of my Disney layouts soon for you all to enjoy! I can hardly believe that we will be on our way back to our favorite place in the world in a couple of weeks! I haven't even finished my album from our last WDW vacation!

Thanks for your patience with this work and progress and I hope you continue to come back!

DWT Dream Team Project Donation



I made these cards and tin for a donation to an auction that will benefit the Make a Wish program to send sick children to Walt Disney World through the generosity of Disney World Trivia Dream Team. I had originally made 50 cards, but had to weed through them and put only 35 in because I couldn't fit all 50 with envelopes in side the tin! The auction takes place this weekend!
