Hi everyone,

I have to say first of all a very BIG special thank-you to a very special lady on this board, Natalie ( donatalie). She is just a truly amazing and generous woman in everything she does here and her talent is adding a bucket load of magic to our once in a lifetime trip to Disneyworld!

So Natalie THANK-YOU from the bottom of my heart!

I'd also like to thank mcraft17 as well as she helped me out by designing envelopes - so THANK-YOU sooo much for those.

Also, Glenna (Glenna74) for the name designs. I have made them into bookmarks which will be used to attatch as name tags to the goody bags I am making up. I don't have pictures of these yet but will add them on when I have them completed.

And finally Lisa (Lisabelll) for designing the MVMCP stick family design for our shirts for the party night.

So here goes with the pics I have first of all Natalies designs:

Park Invites:

Welcome letters for Mum and the boys: ( quite pleased with all the letters and invites as it was the first time I figured out photoshop so that I could personalise myself to take a bit of work away from Natalie as her request list is always through the roof!

Chef Mickey Invite:

MVMCP invite:

Crystal Palace breakfast our first morning invite:

Fantasmic Dinner invite:

O'Hanas Breakfast invite on our last morning:

Planet Hollywood for Thanksgiving:

The envelopes from mcraft17:

Ok so now to the t-shirts:

Now I also made an autograph book for myself so that I can use it for a memory book when I get home. I didnt' make one for the boys as I'm having baskets delievered to our villa by Memories by Betsy and they will have autograph books in them.

So ok thats it guys, I will post pictures of the goody bags when I get them all finished! Two weeks today we will be driving for 5 hrs to Manchester for our flight to Florida USA the following morning! I am sooo excited its unreal but I still have loads to do/organise and I keep getting waves of being a bit overwhelmed by it all but I'l get there!

So once again guys thanks soooo much for everything it is really appreciated and has just added a bit more magic to everything!

I'M GOING TO DISNEYWORLD!!!!!!!

GREAT job! I am VERY impressed! I am doing several of the same things, using mostly Nat's disigns as well! I cant wait to see your goodie bags!

Did you just email all the files to someplace and have them print and bind them?

Thanks, I printed everything myself! The invites are printed on 5x7 Matte Photo Paper. The Journals are printed on A4 Matte Photo Paper as it was slightly heavier along with the envelopes and the Autograph book was printed on 4x6 Record Cards. I then took the Journals and Autograph book to staples to be bound which cost £13 ( approx $20?).

It took approx 2hours per night for about 10nights to print all the Journal Pages as there was soo many of them!

Everything looks FANTASTIC!!! That must have taken many many many hours of work to do it all! I hope you have a VERY magical trip!!!

Thanks soo much!

Thank-you.xxx

Yes I did print both sides on my home computer and no it didn't bleed through, I tested it on a few different papers and the best I found was a4 Matte photo paper as it was slightly heavier and would withstand the amount of colour due to being a photo grade paper. Hope that helps.xxxx

awesome!!!
