Hello Fellow Christmas Cruisers/Scrappin' Lovers,
I just joined the DIS Circle Journal II group and thought it might be a great idea to start for folks going on the 12/24 cruise. For those of you unfamiliar with the concept of cirlce journaling, here's a brief overview of it:
1. Usually each person picks a theme but since we are already all going on the same cruise, there could be certain pages in each person's book dedicated to pre-selected page themes. For example, Embarkation/Port Canaveral, Sail-Away Party, Shopping Onboard and in Port, Disney Dining, Meeting the Characters, Shipboard Activities, Ports of Call, Holiday Decorations, Formal Night, Pirates Night, DIS-moments, etc.
2.I will create a list of 12 Christmas cruisers who are interested in joining the group.
3. Each person would create the cover, intro, and sign-in pages for their book as well as the first two-page layout "We're Goin' on a
Disney Cruise" which would cover any pre-trip travel. When the circle journal mailing officially begins, each person would mail their book to the next name on the list. That person would have one month to complete the next layout and then mail the book onto the next person on the list. After 12 months, each book would eventually get back to the original owner, filled with the memories and creativity of people who had become our friends on the cruise.
We probably won't start the circle journal until sometime in late January to give us all time to get back on track after the cruise. As soon as your post-cruise depression sets in, you will have this to look forward to. There are only 11 slots available (in addition to me

), so if you are interested, don't delay in posting your interest, or better yet, PMing me.
