Walt Disney Animated Movie “Alice in Wonderland” Blog Hop







 Walt Disney Animated Movie “Alice in Wonderland”
March 30, 2012


Welcome to Walt Disney's Animated Movies Blog Hop!!! What makes this hop phenomenal as in no other hop is that every Friday, we will be paying tribute to different movies SOOOO, you will need to mark you calendars for every Friday for these special blog hops:
March 30: Alice in Wonderland
Today, we are celebrating Alice in Wonderland, the Mad Hatter, the Rabbit and you don't want to be late for all the fun  .If you just happened to visit me today, I wouldn't want you to miss one single spot of tea and would want you to start with Lisa.   If you arrived from Cathie then you are on the right spot!!!!

My project for the Hop is a 2 page layout.  I only have a picture on one page of the layout as I didn't get a chance to get the other two printed.  My layout is a lot simpler than I originally planned.  My cat Cuddles passed away on Sunday evening, and Kit Kat or I haven't really been up to doing much this week without Cuddles.   Cuddles was 18 years old, almost 19 in June.   So here is my layout: for this hop.

I used paper and stickers from Reminsce.   I used glitter markers and glaze pens to dress up the stickers. I also used a crystal lacquer pen on the clocks to give a glassy look.

Thanks for stopping by today and visiting and checking out my project, I now must send you on your way  to Lynne.
 There is a great line-up today for the hop and I wouldn't want you to miss a single project so here is the complete lineup as you don't want to be late for the tea parties.

    Walt Disney Animated Movies-Beauty and the Beast Blog Hop


    Walt Disney Animated Movies "Beauty and the Beast"
    March 16, 2012

    Welcome to Walt Disney's Animated Movies Blog Hop!!! What makes this hop phenomenal as in no other hop is that every Friday, we will be paying tribute to different movies SOOOO, you will need to mark you calendars for every Friday for these special blog hops:
    March 9: 101 Dalmations
    March 16: Beauty and the Beast
    March 23: Cinderella
    March 30: Alice in Wonderland
    Today, we are celebrating Beauty and the Beast.  .If you just happened to visit me today, I wouldn't want you to miss one chime of the clock and would want you to start with Lisa.   If you arrived from Bonnie then you are on the right spot!!!!
      When I was little, my great grandma use to read me stories about the Princesses -Snow White, Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast and Rapunzel.  When they came out in the theatre, my Grandmother took me to see them.  So after Disney World opened in Florida, my Mom always promised to take me to see Disney World and the  Disney Princesses, but we never went.  When I was in college, I went to Florida for Spring Break.  We went to Disney World, but we didn't see the Disney Princesses. In 2010, Iwe went to Disney World while we were in Florida to see the shuttle launch.  Shuttle was postponed and we never did get to see it.  But, we did get to Disney World and I got to meet the Disney Princesses finally.  So here is my layout.

    I wanted to use my Cricut Cartridge Dreams Come True and also use some of my Belle Stickers. So, I combined the use of it.  I cut Belle(4 1/2 in), Belle's name(2 in) and the Ballroom Mirror(4 in) out with my Cricut Cartridge, Dreams Come True.  I used my Fiskars Border Lace Punch to punch out the lace borders.  I used my Fiskars double heart corner punch on each of the mats.  I used Jolees Belle and roses as well some plastic heart sticker to the layout.  The ribbon trim, phrase and Rose were on a cardstock sheet .   I will eventually journal on the Ballroom Mirror.

    Thanks for stopping by today and visiting and checking out my project, I now must send you on your way  to Lynne's.
     There is a great line-up today for the hop and I wouldn't want you to miss a single project so here is the complete lineup:.

    Walt Disney Animated Movies -101 Dalmations Blog Hop


    101 Dalmations
    March 9, 2012

    Welcome to Walt Disney's Animated Movies Blog Hop!!! What makes this hop phenomenal as in no other hop is that every Friday, we will be paying tribute to different movies SOOOO, you will need to mark you calendars for every Friday for these special blog hops:

    March 9: 101 Dalmations
    March 16: Beauty and the Beast
    March 23: Cinderella
    March 30: Alice in Wonderland

    Today, we are celebrating all those puppies with all those spots not to mention Cruella deVille who wants the puppies for a coat....If you just happened to visit me today, I wouldn't want you to miss one single spot and would want you to start with Lisa.   If you arrived from Bonnie then you are on the right spot!!!!

    My project for the Hop is a layout!  


    I found textured black dot textured papers and white paper with black glitter bones which seem to go perfect for this theme.  I used a Jolee's embellishment of 101 Dalmations. Using my cricut, I cut the Title and bone from Black and White Glitter paper.  Then, I made a little journaling block with an envelope pocket.  I found a Dalmation stamp so I stamped it on a spatter red white paper, matted it, punched a hole and added some ribbon.   Perfect layout for the cutest little puppy.

    Thanks for stopping by today and visiting and checking out my project, I now must send you on your way but watch out for Cruella deVille trying to catch those pups as I send you on to Lynne's.

    There is a great line-up today for the hop and I wouldn't want you to miss a single spot so here is the complete lineup, in case that Cruella DeVille kidnaps you and leads you off track.

    I made a Scrapbook Page in a Album Frame for Amy.   She loves Pink and Alice in Wonderland, so I went with that theme.   Here is the layout before I put it in the frame.  The paper is from Reminsce and features Alice in Wonderland along with her mad hatter little friends, The Rabbit and the Cheshire Cat.   What birthday wouldn't be complete without a tea party.   I used the sticker by Reminsce and jazzed them up a little.   I used stickels on the Title, the Flowers and the Scalloped frame.  A little stickles on the Rabbit's tie, the center of the flowers on the cups and drops from the drink me potion.  I used a glaze pen on the rabbit's features.   And I used crystal lacquer on the pocket watch.  I added a little ribbon.
