Disney Dreams Title and Embellished Shapes

Disney Dreams is another show on board Disney cruises. It takes you into the dreams of Anne Marie where she is visited by several familiar Disney characters.

I haven't entirely abandoned by pre-Cricut items. The font for the title was partially done with Sizzix "Girls are Weird" and partially Sizzix "Monkey Tails." The clouds were cut with the icon feature from Mickey and Friends cartridge.

Stateroom Title and Squares

One of the things I try to do with my scrapping take a different approach to color. For example, for my Fourth of July set, I didn't use red, white and blue. I used yellow, white and blue. For the stateroom set, I wanted something decidedly NOT nautical in color. While perusing the paper aisle at Hobby Lobby, I found this patterned paper and I thought it would fit the bill. The photo didn't really capture the colors well, but it is a burnt orange, pale green and yellow.

The flags are the icon and border feature from one of the Donald cuts from the Mickey & Friends cartridge. The edges have been inked on the squares.

Golden Mickeys Borders & Lyric

So I had used my friend's Cricut for previous swap items, now you will be able to tell I have my own, as the use of it will become more frequent.

For those that haven't been on a Disney Cruise, Golden Mickeys is the shows that they perform on board, during Formal Night. Golden Mickeys actually, is more than just a show in a theater. They roll out the red carpet from the Atrium down past the shops to the entrance of the Walt Disney Theater. In the half hour before the start of the show, they will have someone interviewing the arrivals, ala "Joan Rivers on the Red Carpet." The arrivals, are just other cruise passengers. And since it is Formal Night, everyone is dressed up. If you are already in the theater, the interviews are shown on the two side screens.

The lyric is "Who Knows Where a Dream May Lead," the song that they use to end the show. It was too big to fit on one piece with the borders and I assume people want to include photos. So I split it up into two parts. Small square gold brads in the corners

The Mickey punch is sold at the parks.

Captain Mickey Paper Piecing and Photo Mats

I really wasn't planning on adding any more pieces before my trip. But I made the mistake of finishing everything I needed to get done before it was time for bed. So now I've been spaz-ing out all day. To paraphrase the Disney commercial, "I'm too excited to do anything!" Blogging does usually take a bit of time, so I'll see how much time I can burn off, with some more posts.

Onto Disney Cruise swap items...

On board ship, they sell a Disney Cruise coloring book. That gave me access to the pattern to create this captain Mickey paper piecing. The clipart from the photo mats came from the sign that they had marking the entrance to the embarkation area. Colors were obviously, inspired by the colors of Captain Mickey himself. The eyelets on the one mat are reminiscent of a ship's portholes or rigging holes.

Paper: This time, it's all valuepack type paper from JoAnn's or Michaels.
