Please WELCOME Kate Gardiner as our Guest Designer for July.
Kate does AMAZING scrapbook layouts and her style is clean and simple.
Kate has chosen the theme Combo Layout with Pocket Page.
So basically what it means is that you create a traditional page and then you also
create a smaller form 6" x 8" Pocket Page to go with it.
You may have joined me from Julia Quinn's Blog
Julia has done a FABULOUS Double Layout with her pocket pages.
To be truthful I really struggled to create anything that I was
happy with in my pocket pages and they are OLD Pocket Pages from Project Life.
So I opted for the easy version of a pocket page, these products are called Flip Flaps
and they are from CTMH which Stampin' Up! will soon carry in a variety of sizes...
What is a Flip Flap? Flip Flaps are clear, self-adhesive pockets.
I have had 6" x 12" Flip Flaps in my stash so I decided to add them
to my Scrapbooking Layout that I created of our Son's Wedding.
I simply used 12" x 6" Basic White Cardstock and added some designer series paper from
Frames and Flowers Specialty Paper Pack. Then I simply added the 3 photos onto the DSP.
To cover the adhesive strip I simple added Tear N Tape and adhered ribbon over the top.
AND tied a simple little bow.
I featured Thoughtful Journey Memories and More Card Pack which can be found on Pg 26
of our Annual Catalogue and The Thoughtful Journey 6" x 6" DSP.
Cutting the 6"x 6" DSP I was able to create a full 12" border down the right hand side,
then I added 1" x 12" Perennial Lavender DSP strip down the side too.
I used the Thoughtful Wishes Dies to cut out some leaves to accent the Memories and More
card which has "The Best Day Ever" written all over it.
Then on the small 3" x 4" card I added the date of their wedding with another leaf die
cut from the Pretty Peacock DSP which I had stamped in Pretty Peacock Classic Stampin' Ink.
I will still continue to play with this layout to finish it off to my satisfaction.
Hope you liked my layout, Sorry for the delay of photos from my camera.
I hope that you enjoy all the different layouts that have been created today.
We will be back again NEXT Month on 15th August with a FUN theme.
