Weekly Challenge #87 (May 25 - May 31, 2011)
 

The challenge instructions are going to be simple this week (and I think we all need simple after that amazing Birthday Celebration) :)

We all get them. Don't lie. We all know know there's somewhere we'd rather be than where we are right now. I want to see how you deal with Disney Withdrawals! We all know we can't be at Disney World or Disneyland all of the time, so I want to see how you create a little Disney magic in your lives. For this challenge you can not use pictures that were taken at a park (after all, we wouldn't have withdrawals if we could always go to the parks).

Make the layout your own, just have fun!

Here are the rules:

1. Showcase how you handle (or appease) your Disney withdrawals BUT NO PHOTOS FROM A PARK (see above for details)
2. You can choose any number of photos…
3. Add a hidden Mickey or two...
3. Title, date and journal. Add your finishing touches…

Please follow the guidelines to receive your PP;

1) LO should be Disney related.
2) It must be uploaded to the MouseScrappers Gallery in the Weekly Challenge category before the deadline.
3) Your layout must be posted in two (2) places: in the challenge thread (here) and in the appropriate forum thread, and please don´t forget to put this last link in your post here!
4) And try to leave some love for other pages in this challenge. We all like encouragment!!!!!

I can't wait to see what everyone creates and how they deal with their withdrawals.

Here is what you are playing for. Thanks to A Grieving Mommy (Denise) for her generosity!!!!!

This is funny. Just today I decided to make Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats. My six year old son will not eat them. I asked him why and reminded him he ate the ones in Disney. He said he would only eat them in Disney. Might have to scrap my treats...where I am longing to eat them with my son in Disney!
:)

I made my layout. One pic is from Disney. My son is in the hotel trying to grab my rice krispie treat while I am taking a picture of it. Hope this isn't against the rules. :)

I'm so glad you got a new computer. I hope you don't have too much trouble getting your files back.

I love seeing all of the different way everyone deals with their Disney withdrawals. I see quite a few of my methods in these LOs as well.

I've left love up to this point. Everyone is posting such wonderful LOs.

Halloween, Disney style
 

How do I deal with Disney withdrawl....dress my kids up as Mickey and Minnie for Halloween! :whistle:

Great challenge Charlene and thanks to Denise for the adorable pp!

http://www.mousescrappers.com/photos...-_Page_054.jpg

Journaling reads: You and Landon made the most adorable Mickey and Minnie for Halloween this year! We enjoyed a day full of fun activities at the neighborhood fall festival. You got to make crafts, decorate cookies, play games, have your face painted, take a hay ride, eat some yummy treats, participate in a costume contest and finish off the night with trick or treating! You loved your costume but your favorite part were your "high heel" Minnie shoes. However, about halfway through trick or treating we had to make a quick stop to let you change into your crocs. You decided that high heels were cute but not necessarily very comfortable!

My office at work is pretty much the catch-all for souvenirs. It really makes my day better since I'm surrounded by Disney magic...

Love this challenge, and this is something I do every day. Looking at all my scrapbooks from the trips gone by would be my next favourite thing to do when I go into Disney withdrawls. : ) Great challenge and PP! Thanks!

The text says:

When this world starts getting me down, I need to "believe in make-believe". It is time to start planning my next "road Trip". As I check the MouseSavers and Allears "vacation" websites and read all the forums on "Disney" , I begin to feel the "Magic!" To fulfill the "wishes" of my daughter, I search the library and the blogs for hidden "Mickey" hints.

Of course, I would go "to infinity and beyond" for my son so I scour the sites yet another time looking for one last "incredible" Buzz target. My husband will have a "wonderful day" as long as he is able to try his strength on "the sword in the stone". "Mine"? I just dream of the moment that I hear those "Magical" words: "Please stand clear of the door"

Even if "I 'd rather be park hopping" all I have to do is make a few lists, choose a hotel to investigate or read up on the current closure schedule and the Wisconsin wonderland turns into "Adventureland" Before you know it the time has come to visit "the happiest place on earth"
