Simply Hybrid: Pocket Scrapping

Hi all, Sarah here with another Simply Hybrid post. I’ve been working on a 6″x8″ album for my daughter for her 13th year and I thought it would be fun to show a few different ways that I create my pocket scrapping layouts.

I love the bright colors in Just Jaimee’s Storyteller 2015: Hunter Collection and thought that the kit would work well with my photos. For this first page I kept it as simple as possible. I printed the two photos at 3″x4″ and chose one of Jaimee’s journal cards in the 4″x6″ size. Without embellishments I had a ton of space to journal which was really nice since I had a lot to say.

For this next page I added some embellishments that I printed from Jaimee’s collection including a couple of labels from her Storyteller 2015: Mega Tag and Label Pack. I had to edit my journaling a bit to get it to all fit on the label but this allowed me to have some space to add some fun embellishments. There are so many awesome digital elements available,  I often use just printed digital elements on my pages. For this layout I also added a date to the tag using a plain office date stamp.

On my last page I added a few traditional paper scrapping embellishments. I love that by adding just a few embellishments I can achieve so much added dimension. Here I added a few enamel dots, a flair button and a paper clip to my previous page.

If you look through my project life albums you will see pages that range from the simple to the heavily embellished. I love that depending on my mood, how much I have to say, or how much time I’m willing to spend on a page I am able to create an assortment of different looks, giving my project life albums a variety of styles that I just love to flip through.
