It's time to get all worldly again now that the DSD festivities are over. Kelly's travelling around the world and this week she's landed in Morocco. A place filled with exotic and textured treasures. The Moroccan pavilion is a beautifully decorated area filled with terra cotta, textiles and tapestries. It's so lavish and exotic. Take a look at the new collection this week called...


Wow, what a dreamy color palette inside this collection! The 15 papers have gorgeous patterns, damask and prints. You'll find a fez, Moroccan building, arch, camels, flairs, hanging lantern, flowers, feathers, ferns, frames, palm tree, country flag, flourish, genie lamp, carvings, pottery, coins and much more. The orange full alpha is very exotic and swirly.

There's a pretty set of 5 word art titles to complete your layouts.


The paper stacks and page starters are beautifully tailored and clustered together.



This collection can be found at www.KellybellDesigns.com and will be 25% off this weekend only. Make sure you grab it now while there's a discount.



The colors in this kit are very versatile and you can use them to scrap your photos with Jasmine and Aladdin as well as scenery photos around the Moroccan Pavilion. There are so many ways to scrap with it. Here's a page that I made.

The end of the year is fast approaching. With all the holiday festivities coming up, things can get pretty crazy! This November Blog Challenge will be the last one for the year. Kelly is skipping December since it's such a busy month. With this challenge you get to be creative and select your own theme. Kelly's calling it a 'Surprise Me' challenge.

As a special treat, you'll be receiving 2 participation prizes for playing along. CT member Lisa and Jennifer have amazing treats for you. Everyone who submits a layout will receive these 2 participation prizes. And the most outstanding layout will receive a gift certificate to Kelly's store.




Here are the rules and instructions to participation in the Monthly Blog Challenge:
  • Scrap a page where you select the theme from a Disney park or cruise. Surprise Kelly with your creativity in how you use her products. Make sure this is a new layout and not one you've already created.
  • You can use as many photos as you want and include as many elements and papers that you choose. We want to see your creativity sparkle!
  • Layouts should be made with 100% Kellybell products or freebies (you are allowed to use a template from another designer). You are welcome to submit more than 1 layout.
  • Post your layout into the Challenges Gallery at Kellybell Designs by midnight EST Nov 30th. Participation prizes will be sent to the email address you have listed with Kelly's gallery.
The most outstanding layout will be announced the first week of December. That's also when the participation prizes will be sent out.

Check your stash to see what Kellybell Designs kits you already own or take some time to browse through Kelly's store to see if you want to pick up a new collection to scrap with. Here are a few of Kelly's kits to use.

A bit of "Bad" from Kellybell Designs.....

Something evil has arrived today. Those nasty and wicked Disney Villains are now getting their turn inside a Kellybell collection. Kelly is famous for creating lots of sweet princess kits, but today she's showing off some badness with a new kit called...


Wow! Soak in all those deep rich colors! This collection is both gorgeous and evil. The kit features lots of elements from Jafar, Evil Queen, Queen of Hearts, Cruella de Vil, Maleficent, Ursula and Dr. Facilier. Inside you'll find flairs, sword, poison apple, fire, magic mirror, serpent staff, playing card, crown, cigarette holder, clock, Cruella hair, dragon, dragon wings, hats, smoke, ribbons, skull, snake head and much more.

For page starters, you'll get 6 beautifully clustered frames. And those rich papers and colors are really shown off with the 4 paper stacks.



Kelly's got 2 packs of word art titles that feature the Villains' names as well as some evil titles to match. These are perfect for your character meetings at the Villains Mix and Mingle.




You can browse through the Kellybell Designs Store to find all these new items and all of Kelly's collections. The 'Villainous' collection will be 25% off this weekend only.




This collection is fabulous for scrapping photos from Haunted Houses, costume parties, Halloween dress-up and of course meeting the Disney Villains. For inspiration, take a look at what I scrapped.



You'll find 3 evil freebies that coordinate with the 'Villainous' collection if you are brave enough to venture over to Jenn's Blog, Julie's Blog and Linda's Blog. Can't wait to see what wicked layouts you can create with this collection. Have a great weekend!
