Pictures from June 2009 trip - New Pictures added Sept. 16, 2009

[kkfinley]

I have finally uploaded our trip pictures to photobucket. I would like to thank all the designers that helped to make our trip special: Natalie, Kelly, Marion, Penny, Telynn, Joann, Mel and Wendy. If their is anyone I forget, please forgive me. I unfortunely did not take pictures of the following items: invites (blanks used from Natalie's 4shared account and some she personalized for me), luggage tags made by Joann (Tinkerbell766), candypockets made by Mel, candy wrappers made by Telynn, and daily treat bags I made with various other designs, some blanks and some personalized.

On with the photo show:

tickets made by Telynn:

First day drive shirt made by Kelly (Kellybell), I did not take one outside of the car for some reason. Myself and both girls had one of these:

Second day drive shirt made by Marion (RustManFan). Only the girls had these:

First park day at DHS. I added the text to Natalie's (donatalie) blank design. I cropped the characters off of Natalie's blank and added the border for my shirt:

and sleeve's of DHS shirt. The Little Einstein name is Natalie's and the Play n Dine is from Marion:

Again, thank you to all designers,

The second park day was matching Tinkerbell shirts I purchased from the Disney Store. We went to the Magic Kingdom, but did not see the fairies this day. We did see them later in the week.

Day 3 was Chef Mickey and Sea World. Natalie made the girls the Chef Mickey Design and Amy (M_I_C_K_E_Y) made me the name tags for Ann, Kate, and I. The girls shirts also had one of her Sea World pictures on the back:

Day 4 was my mother-in-laws first day with us and we went to Epcot. Natalie again made this design:

Day 5 was BBB and MK again. The girls did not want to wear their princess dresses to the park, so I asked for a special makeover design and Natalie came up with the following designs for me. The girls had a before and after picture of Cinderella with the Fairy Godmother and my mother-in-law and I just had the after picture. I also used Natalie's stars of the princesses on the girls skirts. Pre-makeover:

After makeover, please excuse my youngest's bun. The BBB appointment was for 8:30 and this picture was taken about 2:00, and she had played with the bun all day:

. . . continued from previous post.

Okay, almost done.

Day 6 was Animal Kingdom. Telynn made the name badges I used on the front, Natalie made the back design, and Marion made the Tusker House logo on the sleeve of the girls shirts. My mother-in-law had this shirt also that said Grandma, but I love this picture of the 4 of us:

Back of husbands shirt. He was looking out at the waterfall under the Tree of Life:

Day 7 is the last day I made shirts for. Amy M_I_C_K_E_Y made these for me. She also made me invites for NASA and Cocoa Beach and sea shell name fills I used to make cover ups for the girls:

One thing I forgot is I made pressed penny money tubes with Natalie's designs:

All the shirts were made with Amy's transfers. They were super easy to use and the colors looked great. We received a lot of complements from the CM's and other guests. My girls got good at saying "Mommy made it".

I still need to take pictures of my autograph books, passports, and I will also take pictures of the missing shirts.

Thanks,
Krista

Krista,

Everything looks great! My favorite so far is your girls' pink dresses. I love the stars along the bottom. What a neat idea to tie the outfit together.

I am so glad you loved the transfers and that I was able to help with some of your designs. Thanks for sharing them "in action".

I found a better picture of the travel shirts that Kelly and Marion made for me. My husband took them with his blackberry instead of the digital camera.

This is the family on the first travel day at the Tennessee Welcome Center:

And this is from the second travel day at the Florida Welcome Center:

I hope to take some pictures of everything else tomorrow while the girls are at school.

I made this bag for MIL, Ann, Kate and myself. The name fill is from Kelly and the pink dream a princess dream is from Wendy:


I made this to hold the pressed pennies after being smashed. The background I found in Natalie's photobucket and I added the clip art and words:


Each of the girls had one of Natalie's passports. They loved using these in Epcot WS:


Amy made the covers for the Sea World autograph book. We did not have any pictures taken while here with the characters, so I do not know if they sign or not. I thought it was cute and since it is not dated, we can use it on another trip:

[kkfinley]

Penny (chaoscent) made all of the covers in this next post. She made me so many wonderful choices, I could not decide on only 1, so I made a book for each park and a book for misc./hard to find characters. I used Natalie's 2008 autograph cards for all the books, along with a few of Penny's for any character we might see more than once.





This is my photo book I put together after our trip.


Character Meal autograph book. The cover is by Penny and I can not remember if this is one of her character meal cards (sorry):


And last, I made a special book for the girls BBB and CRT experience. MIL also received one of these. Again, Penny made the cover and I used her CRT cards. The pink card for the BBB Fairy Godmother was made using Natalie's tip envelope resized to 4x6 and I added the names and date:



I also made MIL an autograph book, but I do not have pictures of it. For hers I used a cover by Penny and Natalie's 2010 autograph cards and put them in a small photo album like I used for the BBB CRT books.

The designers also helped me to make several things her my cousin and her daughters (6 and 4). They took their first trip to Disney World over the July 4th weekend and had a fantastic time. I was unable to get pictures of these and she has asked me not to post her daughters pictures on her.

Again, I thank all of the designers for the time and talent they put into making everyone's trip so special.

Great job with everything. You gave me inspiration to get mine done for our trip. We leave in 15 days. I am getting my last shipment of shirts today and hopefully more of Amy's transfers. Her transfers are amazing.
