Disney Layout #1



Hi Everyone! Hey check out my first scrapbook layout for the year!! Whoohoo!! Actually, it's my first scrapbook in months!

I don't know. . .I'm a bit intimidated by scrapbooking. I'm not very good at it and I've read magazines, blog sites, and even a few books by scrapbooking gurus and honestly, I still don't get it. LOL!

I've decided to stop listening to my "pessimistic voice inside my head" and just throw stuff together and see what I come up with.


Anyway. . .I'll be creating layouts of our trip to Disneyland during the holidays. I bought a scrapbook album while we were at Disneyland and a scrapbook kit that came with a few Disney designer papers and stickers.

The photo is of my daughter and DH waiting in line for a ride. We had a wonderful time at Disneyland. . .I think this trip was the best one of the last 3 trips to Disneyland.

Don't be surprised if you see more Disney LOs in the next coming days and weeks!!

LO Details:

Paper: Disney, K&CO
Accessories: JoAnn Brads, Disney stickers, Button (?), Colorbok metal tag

Girl! This is a great layout. Just hang in there and try not to feel you have to be elaborate and perfect with every little thing you place on your layout. Some of my best layouts are based on boo-boos I try to cover up. Tee-hee! Remember it is your creation there are no rights or wrongs...be the artist and do your thing.

This is great, Maria! I feel exactly the same way with Scapbooking. I still only have 2 pages done for our trip to Disneyland last May! I really need to try and get at least one page done a month...it's better than none, right?

Can't wait to see more Disney layouts! :0)

You did a fantastic job Maria! Just listen to your head & create your layouts your way. I always find this to be the best way to create a layout. Now that I'm stamping (which I like better) my heart is not into scrapping any more.

I'm so glad to hear someone else say they are intimidated by scrapbooking. I have been stamping and making cards for years but my six year old's baby book isn't done because it was too daunting. A lot of scrappers don't journal - which I think is odd and make these wonderful artistic layouts but I always want to "tell" the whole story. You have a great balance of journaling, image and embellishment. Thanks for sharing the page and letting me know I am not alone.
