A Pocket Full of Memories with Weathered Indigo
Sometimes it’s the little details that tell the biggest stories. This two-page Scrap Journal layout, created with the Weathered Indigo Scrap Journal collection, features layered papers and pockets that give you even more room to preserve the memories behind your photos. Tuck in journaling, keepsakes, extra snapshots or little notes to create a layout that’s just as fun to explore as it is to make.

Step 3: Cut two strips from the deco stripe designer paper to measure 6-3/4″ x 2″ and adhere them along the bottom edges of both pages. Then, cut two strips from the gingham designer paper to measure 6-3/4″ x 1/2″ and adhere them over the seams.
Step 4: Cut a 6-1/4″ x 1″ strip from the vintage floral designer paper, a 6-3/4″ x 1″ strip from the navy geo tile designer paper and a 6-1/2″ x 2″ strip from the watercolor floral designer paper. Using Micro-Tip Scissors, cut a V-notch in one end of each strip, then adhere them to the left page as shown.
Step 5: Cut a photo mat from the leaves designer paper to measure 4″ x 5-1/2″ and a Bright White Solid Cardstock mat to measure 3-1/2″ x 5″. Crop a photo to 3-1/4″ x 4-3/4″, then layer and adhere everything to the left page.

Crop two photos to 2-3/4″ x 2-3/4″ and one photo to 2-3/4″ x 3-3/4″, then mount them onto the mats. Adhere the matted photos to the right page.

I assume you stick the pocket on the page protector. The instructions don’t mention that.
Hi Jane! In this layout, the pocket is adhered directly to the page. That’s the method used in the instructions and helps keep everything securely in place. If you’d rather have easier access to the notebook, you can absolutely place the pocket on top of the page protector instead. There’s no wrong choice — it’s all about what works best for you and your scrapbook style!
