Suggestions? 4yo DD, 11yo DS: Princess & ??

[catpowers]

I need help/suggestions. We're taking our 4 yo DD and 11 yo DS to WDW for the first time. We want to do something special for both of them. She's easy - everything in her world is Disney Princess anyway so thanks to jtanddolly (big big big thanks) my daugher will have Princess status bestowed upon her by Fairy Godmother - certificate & ID card, which can be revoked in the event of a hissy fit ......but what can I do for my 11 yo DS? I'd like to do something similar for him. He's into the pirate scene and he loves Phineas & Ferb. Does anyone have a suggestion? And can you help me come up with some sort of certificate and ID card? Please?!!??! Thank you!!

Not what you are requesting...but I do have two other certificates that you could do something with to "surprise" him. I have a star wars jedi certificate, if he is into star wars and if you are going to Disneyland where they have a "jedi training academy" or if you are going to be at WDW during their "star wars weekends".

Another certificate that I have is a driver's license for "test track". They are both in my 4shared in the "drivers license & certificates" file.

It might also be fun to come up with a "toy story" certificate for buzz lightyear's space ranger spin saying something about defeating Zurg. Then you could get the Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin Ion Pulse Cannon and Target Set
(Item # 940012710019P )
$20.95
from the Disney Store to complete the gift. Although at 11, he may not be interested in that toy. But you could get a "Buzz Lightyear" video game for Wii, Playstation, game boy or whatever game he/she may have.

Dolly....if you're up for a challange, I think I know what I want now. I told my DH what I was up to and he reminded me that in order to offset my DD's BBB makeover & lunch at CRT, we're doing the Pirate League thing with our DS and then the Pirates & Pals cruise later that night (all of this is one of our first days there). Planning this trip must be stressing me out more than I realized, I don't know why I totally flaked on that! Do you think you could do a certificate & ID card to make him an honorary member of Jack Sparrow's Black Pearl crew? Something with lots of skulls on it (since almost every shirt he owns has a skull on it). I'm sure being a Black Pearl crew member is cool enough for an 11 yo boy and he'll probably even let me frame his certificate after like I plan on doing for her's Would you please let me know if you think this is something you want to tackle? Thank you!!!

I can tackle it over the next few days. Also, Natalie or Wendypooh may have something already. I will look in their shared sites as well.

Okay...I think I have finished them for you and I'm super excited about what I made. I hope you like it too. Do me one BIG favor and proof it for me to ensure that I don't have any typos as there is a lot of wording on the certificate. When the certificate is presented to your son, have him sign and date it as it will be up to him to make the decision to become a member of the Black Pearl.

You can find the blank ID card in my 4shared file in the "drivers license & certificate" file. Let me know what you think.

The fonts that I used for the ID are times new roman for everything but the name which is "cloister black" and you can find it at www.dafont.com.

I DELETED THESE IMAGES BUT YOU CAN FIND THEM IN MY 4SHARED IN THE LINK IN MY SIGNATURE THEN LOOK IN THE "DRIVERS LICENSE - CERTIFICATE" FILE

If you like these images, please don't quote them as they take up linking space in my photobucket that I can't delete.

So, here's what I think: I think you are amazing!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you! OMG! I can't begin to tell you how excited he is going to be when he gets them. I read it over and didn't see any typos but I'll print it in the morning and go over it more thoroughly for you just to make sure (whole PC network thing DH has setup is a PITA and his PC is already off so I can't print w/o turning it on, blah blah blah).

And I bet a lot of other people will love those designs too. It's really had to plan something special for boys that age - tweens are tough! I wish I didn't have to wait until August for our trip, but I promise I'll post pictures or PM you with a recap of their reaction when we get back. Dolly, you are seriously a jewel! Again, thank you, thank you, thank you!

ps: I hope I did the quote back thing right (deleting out the image but leaving the text?)

So glad that you liked it and you get a gold star for correctly quoting back! Thanks. I love to help others but don't want to have to pay to do it.

I cleaned up the background a little this morning and reposted the certificate above and in my 4shared. I also posted an ID Card with a black font as I figured that would be easier to match for some than the sepia color in the original.
