bases for this two-page layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Using the Notebook Edge BMC, punch along one long side of a sheet of lined scrap journal designer paper. Cut the sheet in half to make two 6-3\/4&#8243; x 5&#8243; pieces. Adhere the pieces on the top halves of each base paper, with the punched edges facing the outer sides and positioned at a slight angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Cut a sheet of plaid scrap journal designer paper in half to make two 6-3\/4&#8243; x 5&#8243; pieces. Lay one on the 13&#215;13 Cutting Mat with the trimmed edge centered on the mat. Using the Peak Border Making Tool pattern and the red blade, cut a slight V along the edge. Repeat this step with the other plaid piece. Adhere both pieces on the bottom halves of the base papers with the V edge at the top, leaving the top edges without adhesive to create pockets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Lay a sheet of damask scrap journal designer paper on the center of the cutting mat. Using the Peak Border Making Tool pattern and the blue blade, cut a slight V along the short edge. Without moving the pattern, switch to the red blade and cut a strip. Repeat this step to make two strips. Apply adhesive to just the outside edges of the strips and adhere them just above the plaid pieces.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 5:<\/strong> Cut four 3-3\/4&#8243; x 3-3\/4&#8243; mats with damask scrap journal designer paper. Crop four photos to 3&#8243; x 3&#8243; and mount them on top. Adhere the matted photos on the plaid pieces as shown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 6:<\/strong> Crop two photos to 3&#8243; x 4&#8243; and one photo to 3-1\/2&#8243; x 5&#8243;. Adhere the photos on the notebook paper, tucking the bottom ends into the \u201cpockets\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 7:<\/strong> Adhere clear stickers and add journaling as desired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:7px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">One of the best parts of this layout is how versatile those faux pockets can be. Use them to hold journaling, keepsakes or anything else that adds a little more personality to your page. However you fill them, this spread is a great reminder that even the ordinary days are worth documenting. <em>Happy scrapping!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>P.S.
