A start on my Christmas presents

I wanted to come up with an idea for my grand kids who are going to Disney next year.  So I came up with a mini album for them to put their pictures into.  I got idea from this tutorial:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZtPBpzc-Bw&feature=related

Here is the front cover:

and the inside as it opens up to the final pull out flap in the center:

I have different Disney papers to use for each of the kids so they will be individualized.

Check out the new Challenges

There are new challenges over at Colorful Creations for this month.  Come on over and play along or just get some inspiration.  I have a challenge there too and this is what I came up with:  For you to scrap a page without pictures but of a poem for a Mother or Grandmother.  It can either be a poem that you find online, one of your favorite poems or a poem written to you personally.

This is my example:

This was a poem written to me by my son.  I also included the inside of the card on my layout.

This is the card I made for the "Color Combo with a Twist" challenge:
