This posting was made on Day #2 (May 1, 2011) of the reprised Disney Pixar Blog Hop. While I am not an official stop in the line-up on today's portion of the Hop, it has come to my attention that some visitors were inadvertently linked to my first (March 26) set of Disney projects, not my Pooh Treehouse made especially for April 30.
So I'm reprising my reprise! LOL! And as a special treat, I'll briefly show my projects from Hop #1 as well -- so we're all caught up.
Like the first version, this hop is co-hosted by my "pixie Sistah" Shawn at www.craftychicsblog.blogspot.com and Melissa at www.disneydreamerdesigns.blogspot.com. These two lovely women are Disney fanatics and two of my very favorite friends. Kudos to them for organizing this great hop!
I'm very excited to show you my project I made for Day #1. I had the idea to do this after my last hop, and I just love how this turned out:
POOH'S 100-ACRE WOOD TREEHOUSE:
To make this "treehouse," I used an SVG Cuts birdhouse box as the base, cut in brown with a green roof. This cutting file shows the birdhouse with birds and flowers decorating it ... I like to use it as a base, and come up with my own designs for the embellishment. The birdhouse opens (which I'll show later), so I could stuff this with gift items, tickets to the movies or DisneyWorld, candy, etc. I used Cricut's Pooh and Friends cartridge to cut Pooh, the Hundred Acre Wood sign, the sun and the tree branch. Everything was cut at 4". For the tree with the striped pattern, the kite and a window on the left side (hidden), I cut pieces from one of my favorite Nikki Sivils Scrapbooker LLC papers called "We Are Family". Below are a few of the fun details of this project. |
Here is how the box opens up -- the roof comes off, with its embellishments firmly attached.
Here are a few of the little details that make this special, I think.
Pooh's kite string is wound around a paper "stick". |
Glimmered flowers, sprayed with Creative Juices CardMonkey Glimmer Mist (homemade) and Stickles. Trimmed in dried lilacs in the grass edge. |
Now how about a little BLOG CANDY: I've bought a sweet EK Success Disney 12x12" scrapbooking kit for the winner of my blog candy. It contains 121 pieces including 6 sheets of patterned Disney papers, a sheet of glitter alphabets, 2 sheets of dimensional stickers, and pages of decorative borders and elements. ADORABLE!!
To win: (Update: Winner has been chosen, thank you!)
- Be or become a follower of the CardMonkey blog! This is mandatory, and I do check. I put a lot of work into my projects and $$ into my blog candy and its shipping ... it's really the least you can do!
- Leave a comment here, and answer this question: What is your favorite Disney movie? Please include a way for me to contact you in the event you win the blog candy.
- Don't forget to look for the Hidden Mickey on both Day #1, and Day #2. Follow the instructions on Shawn's posting as to where to leave a comment (reporting where the Hidden Mickeys are) to be eligible to win the Grand Pooh-bear of all Blog Hop prizes, a Cricut Gypsy! For my loyal followers who have made it this far, I'll offer a hint: on Day #1, look at the LAST stop!!
These are the projects I posted on the First Disney Pixar Blog Hop, just in case you missed them then:
I have two projects that I did for the March 26-27 Disney Pixar Hop:
For that Hop's second project, I made three Disney-themed scrapbook layouts to document my daughter's trip there in 2009. (She started the scrapbook and then got swept away in planning for her new baby... we all know how priorities shift then!)

Paper-pieced Mickey from Cricut's "Mickey and Friends" cartridge. |

(I'm sure you can get the gist of these layouts ... I smudged the faces of those pictures I posted to protect their privacy.)
♥ Thank you, Shawn and Melissa ♥
for hosting this VERY fun Hop!
