Scrapbooking Global blog Hop - Combo Layout with Pocket Page

Welcome to the July 2024 Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop!  

Our theme of Combo Layout With A Pocket Page was chosen be Kate Gardiner.

There are so many reasons to include a  pocket on your page and so many ways to add a pocket.  I added a 3-tier pocket to this page because I took over 40 pictures at this interesting place.  I have 5 photos in each pocket so with the 7 photos on the page I have almost half of the  photos here.  I'll do another layout with more pockets for the remaining photos.

The layout really didn't photograph well.  There are so many little buildings in so many pictures!  I pulled out that beautiful Peach Pie DSP from the Unbounded Beauty paper pack for this one.  I also used the dies from the Unbounded Love die set.  With so many photos I didn't need  much embellishments, just a few Blooming Pearls on each page.

Here is the pocket I designed for my 3-tier pocket. It measures 13 1/2x 8 1/2 so obviously you will need to piece one of the panels in to make it wide enough. I made the pockets 4 1/2" wide so the 4" wide photos would fit in them. There isn't a lot of wiggle room so you will need to use a very thin line of glue to hold the edges.  Or make each panel a bit more than 4 1/2" wide.

Here are 2 pictures of just the pocket. One is without anything in the pockets so you can better tell how it is made. 

I couldn't decide which color to make the title but I remembered I had 2 pictures taken from slightly different angles so I cut the letters with the Alphabet a La Mode dies from the extra photo. It blends in with the photos nicely, I think.

I hope you will find plenty of inspiration on the blog hop this month and will be adding pockets to your pages to hold all kinds of things soon!

Oh rats!  I tried several different ways and I can't get Julia's blog link to be clickable. Until I get someone to straighten me out just cut and paste the link into your browser. Me and technology sometimes don't get along!
