Blink & You’ll Miss It!!…

Just popping in very briefly to post Prompt 5’s LO for Shimelles’ ‘Something From {Almost} Nothing’…this was a tough one for me…I could think of no novel way of using a page protector on a LO…I decided on pockets & trimmed & stitched, but at the end of it all, it doesn’t look much different to if I’d just stuck the photo’s to the page! disney2 I guess I could use hidden journaling behind each photo as the pockets are all open topped…but I’m leaving it for now…at least my sewing machine has had an airing!!

Another challenge awaits…this time to use up stickers, of which I have a veritable mountain!!!   Add to that this weeks ‘lesson 4’ on the ‘BIA 101’ course & that’s another two mini books to construct…& as my good friend Karen will tell you, I don’t ‘do’ mini books!!!!!

Hope you’re all having a fabulous week with lots of sunshine!!

How clever to put the stitched page onto cardstock, that's so effective. I see I'm not the only one using this project as a way of using older photographs, it's nice to step back in time to happy memories isn't it?!

What a clever idea. This would work well with adding those extra photos that you wan to keep but not necessarily show on a page. You could tuck them behind the pictures you wanted to show.

Good idea,I like the idea of the tops being open too and I really liked your BIA project.

I think it looks fab! (and I love the title). I bet in real life it looks nice and textured and pockets are always intriguing.
