We had a request for some stitching in this collab. If you haven't finalized your submission yet, please consider adding a bit of stitching! Thank you!

She didn't say...just likes to use stitching and hasn't seen much of it in the DC kits. I'm sure anything you do will make her happy! Thanks!

I finished my kit and my blog train add-on. My kit for the store is general dinoland while my add-on focuses on the Boneyard play area. Unfortunately I didn't add any stitching.

Christina, I know you got my kit. Can you please add me to the blog train? My blog is http://joyfulexpressionsscraps.blogspot.com/.

Thanks! I can't wait to see what everyone designed.

I think this has been my funnest challenge so far! Once I started I realized how fantastically these colors work with Walt Disney's Enchanted Enchanted Tiki Room. The bird that entertain guests in the pre-show que are Blue and Orange! Oh, I have sooooo much stuff and I still keep messing with it even though I already sumbitted my kit it was soooooo hard to decide what to include. There is one element I am still trying to get perfect and that is the Frozen Treat you can get at the Sunshine Tree Terrace (at least at Disney World - I haven't been to Disney Land but having grown up and lived my life in Central Florida have practically lived at Disney World). I am going to include the Frozen Treat in the blog hop. I did a lot of reading about the history behind this attraction and it is only One of Two that actually has Walt Disney's Name in the title of the attraction. Also, I remember the Florida Citrus Growers sponsoring it and that ended in 1986 which is I guess about the time we started having so many terrible years of Hard Freezes here and most of the Citrus left Clermont which is the town to the West of Disney World and went further South. Now that Dole has been sponsoring I had to make Two Frozen Treats.... One with a Citrus Twist and One with a Pineapple Twist, aka Dole Whip! So I am writing a novel here and will end with my blog:

I made a sneak peek for DC4 that was posted on the MS Facebook page and in the forum, but it was an after thought and I didn't think to send it to you guys. I'll be making one for this challenge too (for the forum, blog, and Facebook page). If you want it, I'll send it to you guys when it's done. Of course, it'll be a sneak peek at the overall challenge collab, but you are more than welcome to post it on your blog and/or Facebook page on the same day that I post it on MS (which is the day before the reveal). Feel free to talk up the DC5 collab before then too! If you want to post a sneak peek of your freebies, that is entirely up to you!

PS: I'm glad you like working with the colors in this challenge! I totally remember the Florida Citrus Growers at WDW and am almost positive that I have my picture with the orange bird that was their mascot. Thanks for bringing back those memories!

Ahhhh YES the Cute Orange Birdie I don't have a pic but I do remember it... and the little Orange Drink Containers (in the shape of an Orange and with Straw?) I LOVED the Enchanted Tiki Room as a child... especially when the Tiki Gods are chanting and mad and the Thunderstorm comes... ooohhhhh... My husband hates that attraction... opposites really do attract!

I want to post the sneak peak... I am soooooo excited about this challenge!

Thanks so much for letting me know. It looks like I accidentally added a space after my blog URL. I corrected it now.

Made my part, and added two stitches to this part and two into the freebie (available during the blogtrain). It turned out to be a kind of boy/park/zoo/Animal Kingdom like kit!
