**December 2012 Roll Call** Holidays, FLE Opening & MVMCP!! A very, merry thread!

[Valgoof]

You might be interested in seeing this week's blog posts at Two Peas in a Bucket which showcases a disney scrapbook "mini-album". It's a really cool idea and I think it could accomplished pretty quickly.

But no matter how you do it, scrap it! I wish I had a Disney trip to scrapbook right now

I was distracted by the cake and missed your post. That is very cool!! I got stuck when choosing the paper. I wanted Disney colors, but wanted the colors to make sense with the pics too and didnt want the whole book to look ridiculous as a whole. I ended up with a blue for Epcot and a green jungley paper for AK. DHS and MK had me stumped so I put it away for a while. The only other big scrapbook I did was for our wedding and I just used our wedding colors and themes throughout the book so it was easy to coordinate.

If you would like to be added, removed, or need to change dates, just post below! And to make this fun---

Tell us about where you are staying, if you've ever been to WDW in December, and what you are MOST looking forward to during your upcoming trip. Feel free to share links to your Pre-Trip Reports as well!

We are approaching the '250 pages mark' of this thread... That's when the thread gets locked because it is FULL.

When it happens, I will create a new PART TWO thread for us and copy everything over so it still looks the same. If I happen to not be around when it happens (today, tomorrow, whenever!), please be patient. I will get a part two thread up as soon as I notice this one gets locked. Thanks!

Scroll down to my next post as I update it frequently with event information and news re: WDW in December!

We will be at the Poly Dec 1st - 8th.

Top of the page 2 pages in a row.

Why couldn't you have posted 15 minutes sooner. Then my double digit post would've been at the top of the page...

 

[Tltorrez]

Two Peas used to be my home away from home! I've been a long time scrapbooker.....I'm pea #66 . I think you guys would like that scrapbook at disneystore.com. I ordered the blue one with the castle emblem on the front....very pretty! I'm off to check 2peas

Wow! #66 is impressive. my number is like 500K.

I've been scrapping for about 11years. I used to spend a lot of time on Scrapbook.com (Terri in MD). That's where my gallery is. I follow 2Peas (tltorrez) more in the past couple years since I became a fan of Shimelle Laine. I'm also a Big Picture Classes junkie (Terri in MD). But I don't spend much time on scrap boards anymore. I use Twitter (@tltorrez) for my scrapping community.

I was distracted by the cake and missed your post. That is very cool!! I got stuck when choosing the paper. I wanted Disney colors, but wanted the colors to make sense with the pics too and didnt want the whole book to look ridiculous as a whole. I ended up with a blue for Epcot and a green jungley paper for AK. DHS and MK had me stumped so I put it away for a while. The only other big scrapbook I did was for our wedding and I just used our wedding colors and themes throughout the book so it was easy to coordinate.

I decided not to over think my main Disney album. No particular color scheme or special page order and one 12x12 album for all our Disney trips. I will probably divide the album into some basic categories like food, characters, Attractions, resorts, etc. Then I'll just do layouts as they strike me. I've had too many over planned theme albums that I never finished (or worse, never started). And, if you're familiar with Stacy Julian's Library of Memories, this approach fits right in. Of course, I should mention that since I decided this I've made ONE Disney layout. Still, it's a good plan.

I do have a smaller 6x6 album that's just my son's character photos and autographs. I used paper on that themed to the characters. Instead of an autograph book my son carries a stack of 4x6 white card stock. I punched a hole in the corner and put them on a key ring. Makes scrapping super simple.

 

[Tltorrez]

And now my favorite Disney thread is discussing my favorite non-Disney topic. Disney + scrapbooking. How am I supposed to get work done?

 

[tofubeast]

Scrapbookers-- I am a wannabee. Sadly, I have all this Disney stuff and pics I was going to use to make a scrapbook of our visits back in 07-09. That never happened. Then got pregnant in '10...so motherhood is my excuse. haha.

So now I think I am going to use all my Disney stuff to scrapbook her first disney trip. Yes, that is what I will do. You heard this DECLARATION here first people.

BDL
Congrats on double digits. We are going to blink and it will be single digits! Will we be on Part Three of this thread by then?

 

[1153rsmith]

We are arriving 11/27 and staying till 12/7. We are doing a split stay with first 3 nights at AoA Little Mermaid, and the rest of the trip at Bonnet Creek..(I couldn't exchange into DVC, unfortunately )

 

[father of 2]

We will be in POFQ from 12/7 - 12/15.

So sorry. Your post was so much worthier of the top of the page too!! You can just post it a few more times to get on the top of the next page.

Yep. I am definitely overthinking it. Or at least I was, before I put it all away. Time to get it back out and maybe I'll be inspired.

 

[hollygolitely93]

You scrap bookers impress me. I started one for my older son as his birth book and well...let's just say it is "unfinished".

I do love compiling video montages and have created one for each of my children's birthdays and of course our last Disney trip. I have the songs picked out for this trip (I think) and a few fun things to try editing wise...given we have the nieces/nephews/SIL/grandparents on this trip I should have lots of material to play with!

Whoever had the 12 days of Disney idea...love it! Going to adopt it, as well!

 

[Valgoof]

No new posts in almost an hour?! Where did everybody go?

Did anyone see the blog today? Part 2 of the Enchanted Tales with Belle video: http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/bl...anted-tales-with-belle-at-magic-kingdom-park/

It looks so awesome, I can't wait to see it in person!

Tomorrow is double digit day!

 

[grrrlennyl]

Haha! Lunch, maybe?

On that note, I'm still trying to hunt down a lunch ADR at Le Cellier on 12/18. Whee! Other than that, I think my vacation is pretty much figured out. The only probablem is that it's still so far away.

Alright, I guess everyone gets a lunch break.

Ooo that's a toughie. That one and Ohana are the only two that I booked at 180 days and haven't changed at all. Hope you are able to get one!

Thanks! I actually nabbed lunch reservations on the 15th and 16th, but am holding out for the 18th. I think I'll end up doing the one on the 15th (our first DHS day) if that doesn't happen. Whomp.

Also, it looks like we're arriving within 2 days of each other (We get in on the 13th.) and will be staying across the lake from each other!
