Sometimes it’s the little details that tell the biggest stories. This two-page Scrap Journal layout, created with the Weathered Indigo<\/em> 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.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: <\/strong>Cut two sheets of Bright White Solid Cardstock to measure 6-3\/4″ x 10″ to create the bases for this two-page layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3: <\/strong>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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4:<\/strong> 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 5:<\/strong> 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
