I scrapped a simple pocket page today, to get started on some of our Christmas photographs:
The design of my page was inspired by a few different challenges:
* Archi-Scraps ~ Use SPOTS. I love using spots and polka dots, and I have a huge collection of spotty papers and other embellishments. It was fun to find the right combination for this page, and I particularly liked the large spots with the stars on them.
* My Mind's Eye ~ Add a shaker element. This is something I haven't done on a layout before, and I thought it would suit a pocket page very well. I used gold sequins and stars, and I secured the top of the page with a folded strip of scalloped paper and washi tape:
I used products from four different MME collections ~ Boy Crazy, Breaking Free, Collectable and Jubilee.
* Simon Says Monday ~ We can see clearly. Pocket pages are transparent...
