OK, so I was able to find the in Stich'z from http://www.embellishonline.com/. I am so excited!! I have been wanting them for so long with no luck. Well, most places have them, but not the ones that I wanted.
Last night I decided to start organizing the pictures I want to do for my Disney book while at my crop next month. I narrowed my pics for each LO and started putting them into the sleeves of my book. So here comes the problem. The book had an original 20 pages. I added about 30 more and guess what? I haven't even used up 1/2 of my pictures and I am out of sleeves. This is going to be a HUGE book. I need to go buy about 4 more packs maybe even more. We took almost 3,000 pictures while there and I want to show everything. So, how do you narrow down your pics when you have so many? Usually I only do 2-3 pics of something but since I am making a book just for this trip, I want everything in it. Have you ever gotten carried away and scrapped everything?? What did you do to simplify your book. Any ideas would be helpful.

The hardest part of scrapping for me is narrowing down pics. I'm a picture taking freak, lol, I love taking pics. One of my friends jokes that I'll take 500 pics of one flower. ;)
On my week long Disney trip in October, I took over 4000 pics (plus photo pass pics.) I've done over 60 layouts (80 pages) so far, and I'm not even close to being done. I typed out a list of what I want to scrap from the trip, and from that I did a rough figure of how many layouts I need to do if I scrap everything that I plan to... about 150! To make matters more complicated, I recently took a mini Disney trip, who knows when I can scrap THAT one! But, you know what, I really love it. I relive each memory as I scrap each layout, and it helps with my not-being-at-Disney depression. ;)
So, I guess I'm not really helping you to simplify! Some of my LOs have one pic, some have 7, it just depends. Even before I left for the trip, I knew the scrapbook was going to be several albums. My friend needed 3 albums, and that's basically what I'm doing. Character pages in one album, and then maybe Magic Kingdom in the 2nd, the other parks in a third.
If I haven't bored you yet, here's my pages so far (plus a few I haven't uploaded yet!)

BTW, I saw you are from Philly. I'm from the area in NJ :) Oh, and I found your blog from the Cricut board, in case you wondered how I got here!
You are going to have so much fun making your Disney album!! We are going to Disney in October and I am sure I will take a ton of pictures!!! I'll probably have one big family vacation album and then put some of the pages in my kids' albums.
The last Disney trip I took about 1000 pictures and used up the majority of them in my books. Yes, books. I have 4 complete albums for the one trip. We just got back in January, so I have tons more pictures to scrap and I can't wait to dive into those!! I love scrapping Disney!
