Spirit of America

This week we are all feeling a little bit more patriotic. For those of us here in the United States, it was a time to celebrate our independence on the Fourth of July. With bold colors of red, white and blue and lots of flag waving, this holiday is filled with family celebrations, parades, marches, fireworks, picnics and lots of outdoor fun. At Disney, you can find your fill of red, white and blue in Liberty Square in Magic Kingdom or at Epcot in the United States country inside the World Showcase. Your patriotism can soar with the release of Kellybell's latest collection called ....

'Americana' is packed with solids and patterned papers in the classic red, white and blue. The mix of patriotic elements is so wonderful -- you'll find a bald eagle, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, a stockade, liberty bell, feather ink quill, liberty tower, grandfather clock, tree, American flag, Abraham Lincoln top hat, Uncle Sam hat, hinges, lantern, iron fence and so much more. Kelly's included 2 alphas for you. One is a a red, white and blue flag print and the other is a classic gold.

Kelly went a little crazy creating lots of word art titles for you. Look at all these amazing titles to use for Liberty Square and the American Adventure in Epcot. Isn't the mix of the 2 alphas fabulous?

She's also created 4 paper stacks which make a wonderful starting point for your layouts, along with 6 different page starters. These make scrapping so fun and easy.

Monster of a good time

Have you seen Monsters Inc? It was released in the Fall of 2001-- can you remember that long ago? The story line was really neat. The city of Monstropolis gets all of its power from the screams of little children made by monsters scaring them at night. The utility company called Monsters Inc has 2 main employees - Sulley and Mike Wazowski. They're funny looking but very adorable and lovable. When a little girl named Boo accidentally get let into the monster world, everything gets crazy. These cute and cuddly characters can be found at Disney for meet and greets. And usually these characters are very playful when you meet them. For scrapping all your monster madness photos, Kellybell Designs has a bright and bold new kit today called....

'Laughing Monsters' is a fresh and funky kit full of awesome purples, blues and greens. It's perfect for scrapping some hugs with Sulley, or posing with that one-eyed monster Mike, or for photos with little Boo. You'll find this kit is filled with crayons, flairs, frames, twisted wires, hard hat, megaphone, buttons, door, journal tags, and a cute green monster. It's just fabulous!

Check out the cool alpha that's included. It's blue outlined in glittery purple. Here's a set of 5 word art titles you're gonna love. Use one up top for a title and one in the middle of your page for a sub title.

It's hard to live without Kelly's paper stacks. Look at all those layered papers and awesome clusters.

Gotta have these page starters too! There's 2 page borders, 2 frame clusters and one cluster strip. These are so fun to use in your layouts.

It's a Beauty!

Sleeping Beauty's Castle at Disneyland is just a breathtaking site. First opened in July 1955, the castle was designed after the real Bavarian castle Neuschwanstein, one of the most popular castles in Europe. When you wrap in the story of Sleeping Beauty, it makes the castle seem even more awe inspiring. Knowing that true love's kiss can awaken the sleeping princess makes you wish we could all live in a fairy tale!! Today, Kelly has taken all that inspiration and created a stunning new kit for you called....

Isn't it just lovely? There's 15 papers in luscious colors of pink, purple and yellow, also including a stunning rock wall paper. The elements are very elegant and versatile, perfect for scrapping Aurora, Daisy Duck, Bibbidi Boppidi Boutique, Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland and lots of other Disney pages. You'll find an Aurora doll, flairs, crown, banner, chandelier, hearts, rabbit, castle, swirls, buttons and so much more in this kit. Check out the gorgeous alpha in white and pink. Here's 5 amazing word art titles to complement your layouts. These titles would work great for your meet and greet with Aurora or breakfast at Akershus, even photos in front of the castle.

You're going to love this set of 5 page starters. So fabulous for popping onto a page and adding instant pizazz.

For a gorgeous clustered paper background, Kelly's created 4 paper stacks to start your pages with an instant layered paper base.
