Disney for everyone!

Hi All and Happy Monday! Hope you had a fantastic long weekend.

One of the many things I love about being in our scrapbook store is seeing the amazing creativity that walks through our door each day. Yes walks! That creativity is you. Your scrapbook pages and crafts are an expression of your creativity (whether you think you are creative or not!).

So when our friend and customer Hillary Laker shared with us what she has been working on I simply HAD to show you! Hillary has been having a blast with the Disney Cricut Cartridges.

If you are new to scrapbooking the Cricut is an electronic die-cutting machine - simply put, the Cricut is a cutting machine combined with a cartridge (which stores the designs) that will cut images, shapes and lettering with the result of a professionally produced cut out image. You can adapt and modify to suit your project - and you can do this at home!

Hillary was too shy to let me take a photo of her but one thing she did say is how the Disney cartridges we making her feel like a kid again :) What I especially love about her layouts is that she didn't feel compelled to only using Disney cartridges for Disneyland photos or photos of a child/Disney theme. You will see many of the pictures are of different locations in New Zealand and Mickey and Friends seem to narrate her story.

I also love how she made the designs super huge on some of the pages. You can tell Hillary was having fun with this!



Hillary used:
Mickey & Friends Cricut Cartridge


Some of the fantastic designs on this Cricut cartridge.

Mix and match with your own fonts or combine with the Mickey Font cartridge for a complete Disney theme.


Thanks Hillary for sharing with us your wonderful pages and as Mickey and Pluto say in your last pictured layout (above) - "That was great!"

Byes for now
