June Blog Challenge!!


Summer is right around the corner! The kids are getting out of school and everyone is planning some fun summer vacations, pool parties, summer camps and backyard fun. Make sure you pencil in some time to create a layout for Kelly's newest blog challenge. This month's theme is called "Pure Magic".

Here's the participation prize you'll receive this month for playing along. CT member Christy has made a paper stack and cluster frame for you. Everyone who submits a layout will receive a participation prize. And the most outstanding layout will receive a gift certificate to Kelly's store.



Here are the rules and instruction to participation in the Monthly Blog Challenge:
  • Scrap a page showcasing Magic Kingdom fun between the front entrance and the castle. This can be anything at the main entrance including the rope drop show and coming and going from the park; events and parades down Main Street, characters at Town Hall, Photopass pictures in front of the castle, fireworks over the castle, statues in the hub or dining at Crystal Palace or Cinderella's Royal Table. There's so much going on as you make your way into the Magic Kingdom. Let's see what you can create along that path.
  • While the instructions are written for Walt Disneyworld, please adapt them for any of the other Disney parks around the world.
  • You can use as many photos as you want and include as many elements and papers that you choose. We want to see your creativity sparkle!
  • Layouts should be made with 100% Kellybell products or freebies (you are allowed to use a template from another designer). You are welcome to submit more than 1 layout.
  • Post your layout into the Challenges Gallery at Kellybell Designs by midnight EST June 30th. Participation prizes will be sent to the email address you have listed with Kelly's gallery.
The most outstanding layout will be announced the first week of July. That's also when the participation prizes will be sent out.

Take a look at these kits below that might be helpful for scrapping your challenge layout.













You can find lots of inspiration at Kelly's Blog to give you some ideas of what to scrap for this challenge. Now here's my Pure Magic layout.

It's Here!! Hollywood Action!

Hooray for Hollywood! Lights, camera, action! On with the show!
Can you guess where Kelly's newest collection was inspired from this week? If you saw the sneak peek on Wednesday, you probably already guessed it was a kit about Disney's Hollywood Studios. This newest collection is called 'The Studios' and has a unique color scheme to jazz up all your photos from the park entrance to the Sorcerer's Hat and circling all around the Hollywood streets.


Inside this kit you'll find 15 colorful patterns and designs. You're gonna love the multicolored starburst paper!! Check out the cool movie projector, tickets, film reel, director's chair, marquee sign, pixie dust, film strips, theater masks, mouse ears tower, clapboard, flairs, black palm tree, stars, flowers, journal tags and so much more.

The glittery silver alpha was used to create these premade word art titles. So fun!


The clustered paper stacks and page starters have become so popular. When you have so many layouts to create with the hundreds of photos you take at Disney, you really find it handy to use these for both inspiration and time savings.



All of Kelly's creations can be found at her store at www.KellybellDesigns.com. This new collection is on sale for 25% off this weekend only. Grab all 4 pieces and save some money!



This collection is ultra colorful and so fun to play with. You can find all the CT layouts on Kelly's Blog. Here's a page that I scrapped.



'The Studios' is a collection that will get used over and over again. Have fun scrapping all those PhotoPass pictures in front of the Sorcerer's Hat. Now onto where the goodies are. Your 3 gifts today can be found at Julie's Blog, Kelly's Blog and Roxana's Blog. Can't wait to see how this kit inspires you. Have a great weekend!
