9 months after the fact, I finally printed out ALL of my Disney pictures from May 2014. I knew it would be a daunting task and I think that is what has kept me from doing it.. but don't get me wrong, I have been itching to get it done!
With such a big event like DISNEY, it is so hard to choice just a few (ranging from 4 to 16) pictures to put into the album. I had almost 200 pictures printed! THIS is where I am struggling with Project Life = I am a picture hoarder. And with being a picture hoarder, I am left with random left over pictures that don't make it to the album and think, now what am I going to do with these? I am so scatterbrained when it comes to putting pictures together. I dabbled with the thought of making a stand alone album just for Disney because I knew I was going to have a ton of pictures, but I wanted it to be included with the rest of the summer/yearly album.
I searched Pinterest for possible inspiration for cute Disney themed Project Life spreads but everything was a bit too cheesy for me. I wanted to keep it simple and not have it scream DISNEY! I saw on Instagram someone bought a set of Disney washi tapes at Joann's Fabrics so that was my first stop on the Disney PL embellishment hunt this past weekend! I have used Joann's for fabrics and yarns in the past and never really looked into their paper crafts and I must say, I was very impressed! First of all, I found multiple acrylic stamping blocks there, which were nearly impossible to find at Michael's, which is my go-to craft store! I have developed a bad habit of going to Michael's almost every weekend the past few months so I knew they didn't have a very large selection of Disney stickers so I planned scanning Joann's sticker selection as well. I didn't find the set of Disney washi tape but I did find these 2 adorable individuals. Joann's also had a very good sticker selection but I didn't want to go too crazy because I knew I still needed to make a stop at Michael's as well. I bought these cute Mickey Mouse head stickers and a smaller acrylic block that was on sale for $1!!
My trip to Michael's was a little quicker. I got my PL inserts and a few Disney stickers and was out of there. It was packed in there!
