Weekly Challenge #215 12/18/13 to 12/31/13
 

Hi everyone!! Back again with another challenge. It's that magical time of year - Christmas!!

Connie (Designs by Connie Prince) has created this little mini kit for those of you who play along with me over the next couple of weeks. Here is a preview of the kit:

And because of the holidays, this particular challenge is running for two weeks.

I think you all know the basic rules:
Your layout must be Disney related
Post your layout in your gallery and then to this Weekly Challenge Thread and what other appropriate forum works for your layout.
Please -no quick pages!! It just isn't fair to the others who create their pages.

So here's my challenge:

I would love to see layouts that highlight all the lovely Christmas decorations at Disney!! It's a very special time of year at Disney!!

For those of you who have not been to Disney at Christmas... never fear!
Just make sure you use a Christmas Kit and make your layout obviously Christmas-y!!


Easy peasy, yes?

If you have any questions at all, feel free to post them here. I'll be posting my layout very soon!!

I'm sorry I wasn't able to post this last night.. and I will gladly allow and extra day or two for those who may need it during this holiday season. :)

Thanks so much for hosting, Laramie.... and please thank Connie for another fabulous prize! I especially love the high-quality papers.

For those that don't have any Christmas photos, don't have any Christmas kits, or don't celebrate Christmas, is there perhaps some additional rules they could play along with? Thanks! :flowers:

Sure Thing!!
 

And we are both delighted to be with the MouseScrappers, Carol!!

Well... let me see... if there are no Christmas photos... and no Christmas kits.. and no Christmas celebration... perhaps you could include some journaling to share some celebration of your own at Disney. First trip.. birthday.. anniversary.. anything! I want these next two weeks to be more about friendship and sharing... no stress!! I'm feeling pretty lax this time of year.

Christmas Card Photos

We went to Disneyland to take our family Christmas Card photo with some good friends of ours. We used the photo on the left for our card. It's the perfect place to get that Christmas feeling in the photos!

Am I just totally missing the link to the mini kit?

No! That is the participation prize. Not what you what you have to use.

Christmas 2011
 

I was so excited to see this challenge that I got right on it! I just purchased the Project Mouse Christmas kit and couldn't wait to use it! Here are some photos from our last trip at Christmas - we will be leaving in a week for a New Year's trip!

Thanks for the beautiful PP and fun challenge!

I'm jealous!!
 

New Year's Trip?? Awesome!! I am green with envy!!

Did you want the link to the PP kit now instead of at the end of the challenge? It's Christmas.. I don't mind. :) Let me know!!

Hi Laramie!

We will be heading to WDW next week. Would it be okay if I upload a layout on Jan 2? We get back late on the first and this would be the perfect challenge to get me scrapping those pictures! :D

Although I am very jealous.. YES!! I will happily allow you to upload on Jan 2nd. But please make sure to do so by then. Another challenge should have already started up.

Here's mine from our Yuletide Fantasy Tour

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

So not a Christmas kit but it is a Christmas page. My special girl got a Doc doll for Christmas and she was very happy and surprised.
