Don't Ya Love a Parade? Head to Kellybell Designs!!

Not only does Disney know how to host a great holiday party, they also know how to put on an amazing parade. There are so many fabulous parades to see at Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom. It all starts with staking out that perfect viewing spot -- one with a great angle for taking photos, one in the shade on a hot sunny day, or one where your kids can run around to pass the time waiting. There's so much excitement in the air when the parade starts and you peek down the road and see the first float coming your way. You gotta take tons of photos during the parade. And then you'll need a kit to scrap all those photos. Kelly's so excited to introduce a new parade themed kit today called....

DON'T YA LOVE A PARADE?

This kit is just bursting with color and lively elements. There's confetti, swirls, star bursts, balloons and sparkles along with some journal tags, stitching and gorgeous layered flowers. The 15 papers are full of fun patterns and colors that will make you smile! Check out this set of 5 word art titles. They'll add some excitement of your layout.

A new part of this kit's collection is a set of 4 clustered paper stacks. How gorgeous! Start with one of these papers as your base and your page is off to a good start!

Next you can layer on some page starter borders and frames. Look at all the color and fun just bursting out here!

Kelly's newest releases are on sale for 25% off until midnight Sunday so make sure you grab these at Kellybell Designs Store.

With the paper stacks, page starters, and word art, it's so easy and quick to put together a fabulous parade layout with festive colors. Take a look at what I created.

There's a parade of freebies to present to you from Kelly's Creative Team. Stake out your spot first at Jenn's Blog, round the corner to get to Roxana's Blog, and the parade will end at Sarah's Blog. You'll be picking up a border freebie, frame cluster and Quick Page. Follow the parade and leave some love for the gals along the way.

More In Store Monday at Jessica Sprague

Happy President's Day...I am one of those lucky people who didn't get the day off, but I still wanted to take a chance to share some digi goodness with all of your scrappers who have time to play today with some new stuff!

It's More In Store Monday at Jessica Sprague, CLICK HERE to see all the fun new products, and I still get giddy to see my layout up on Jessica's blogpost next to Becky Higgins new horizontal journaling cards for Project Life!

How many of you are doing Project Life, or something similar? I'm already behind, but I've decided what will work for me is using Becky's Shutterfly system for Project Life in the Clementine color palette, and then suplementing any additional pages I make --by uploading them to shutterfly and then printing a 12x12 book at the end of the year.

So this page from my birthday would be the perfect example of one I designed myself and am uploading to shutterfly to supplement into my Project Life 2012 book!



I used Becky Higgin's new journaling card in the store today--FOUND HERE!

Happy Scrappin! Hope you get a chance to be creative today!

Inside the kit you'll find 3 word art strips, 2 flairs, tape strip, stitching, old fashioned camera, wax seals, banner, flourishes and more. There's a red alpha framed in black that is just stunning! This kit is fabulous for scrapping your photos of Mickey from Epcot's Character Spot, Chef Mickeys, or Magic Kingdom. I know I certainly have tons of photos of Mickey so it's nice to have a variety of kits to choose from for scrapping character layouts.

Take a look at these clustered Page Starters. It's a gorgeous collection of borders, frames and clusters.

Just Around the Riverbend....is Kellybell Designs!

If you've been working on Kelly's February Blog Challenge trying to decide which Disney princess to scrap, you may have noticed that Kelly's offering of kits is missing one princess. Have you figured out which one that was?? She's the daughter of a Native American chief. She can feel the spirits in the earth, water and sky. She can hear voices in the mountain and see colors in the wind. Of course, she's Pocahontas and here is her kit....

AROUND THE RIVERBEND

'Around The Riverbend' is a fabulous collection of 15 papers in woodsy textures and patterns mixed with gorgeous turquoise. There's Pocahontas and Meeko along with a tee pee, tree, campfire, branches, canoe, feathers, flairs and other pretty flowers, strings and leaves. Plus Kelly made a stunning wooded alpha in a deep rich brown.

Check out these amazing new Page Starters. There's 2 borders, 2 frame clusters, one word art title and a cluster strip. So beautiful! And they make a great addition to your scrapping stash.

These 2 new releases will be 25% off this weekend only so make sure you grab them now at a discount at Kellybell Designs Store.

The papers in this kit are amazing for stacking and blocking. And you can cluster your heart out with all these adorable elements. Check out what I made with 'Around The Riverbend'.
