Pressed for Time....Pocket Pages!


Whew September is here...where did the Summer go?  I don't know about you but I was all over the place!  Spending time with family, road trips, events all the things that can keep us too busy to document our memories.  I have a backlog of stories to tell...and not a ton of time.  How do you document your memories without a ton of time....Pocket Pages!

This summer my niece (through marriage) who I'd never met got married.  Her shower was simply beautiful, vibrant and warm.  Her colors were vivid so off to my stash I went to secure the essentials.
When using pocket pages try to use unique sizes, it just add a different look to your pages.
I grabbed the boldest of my stash and got to work.
Pocket pages for me are not as easy as 12 x 12 so play around with the arrangement.  Lay out your photos, shuffle them around until you are satisfied with the placement.

Play with color, bring out the colors in your photos. Don't be afraid to cut your photos either.  Once you have your placement..embellish away.
Use a punch to get rid of empty space in your photos.







Happy Scrappin'
