I'm not really sure how I feel about this layout  I wanted to make a pocket page, but what my mind was saying my hands were not doing..lol Anyway, I used my anchor punch, I had a couplf of sheets of that PP, but this sheet was the last of it, I printed and reduced the size of a ledger paper that I added on there and my theme was cruising.  |

View AttachmentI really like the shape of the pocket here - I find it so difficult to include larger pieces of memorabilia. |

I am totally stealing your idea of a pocket...very creative! I've always cut apart a page protector and attached to my paper. Your way is so much better. I like that enough of the memorabilia shows to see what it is.

Here is my layout. I used ledger paper, obviously!, a football theme, and for using the end of something, I had part of a bingo card laying out, so I punched stars from it.

I am new to this board and to Flickr, and have not found the 2peas group gallery there. Have asked to be invited, but no invitation yet. (May not have done the request correctly, but it is not 24 hours yet...) Anyway, I finished a couple of pages this morning, and used ep "Scoot" pp that is like ledger paper. Also used some of the cutouts from the cricut cut piece to embellish the rest of the page. Hope you can see this.

grammadee I love how you used the die cut paper (is that what you call it?). I have some that I have never been happy using.

I actually cut that with my Cricut, but I know what you mean. I have several of the precut sheets in my stash, but seem to avoid them when I am actually putting pages together. Used a few with my Christmas pages this year, and found that when I used just a few pieces of the diecuts on one page, it didn't overwhelm me. Also like the idea of putting buttons or "gems" or other stuff on top of the pattern: that helps me tie it into the page design as well. |

Here's one from me. I actually made this using the Jan list but never got around to scanning or adding it to the gallery and it has a few things that fit for this month too. I used the last of something - the black Pebbles road trip sticker, the Quick! alphas (the last useful word I could make on the sheet), and the enamel dots something with a definite theme - travel stickers a product or technique I've used on one of my last 5 projects - ink splatters  |

And here's another one. This is a scraplift of Shimelle from the latest Glitter Girl episode. I used a PL card for my journaling and some more travel stickers for the definite theme. I also used products I've used in my last 5 projects (travel stickers and enamel dots).  |

I think I say that about all your layouts. I like how you used the busy paper in the back...I always struggle with those types of papers. You left just enough showing. |

One of my favorites of all her videos, fwiw. |

I finally finished this challenge. This is made with Project Life Cards. I used the last piece of MAMBI paper in my pad for the top and bottom stripes. I used punches to make embellishment clusters which I have used on my last layouts. There is a blue border clear around this but it didn't show up on the scan.

bklyngal62, I love that pocket idea. I'm going to use that for memorabilia in my Hawaii album. Very clever and very practical. Love it. mikklynn, Chinagirl828, and grammadee I left love on your layouts in the gallery. I love the variety of layouts we got this month from a variety of stash. Thanks for posting this, Chinagirl828!

Here's a double pager from me using the last of something (the orange alpha), and something with a specific theme (the ice cream paper, the food themed flair, and the travel themed stickers).   |

Love the food shots: way to get the whole experience onto a scrapbook page! Also love all the oranges on your travel pages. |
