Hey Everyone! It’s Leanne here today, sharing with you an interactive idea for your next “back to school” layout!
I love journaling and I absolutely add it to all of my layouts. But sometimes the journaling can require privacy from a wider audience. Hidden journaling can be quite cathartic when documenting difficult moments. However, I also love the idea of including hidden journaling, purely for the sake of the interactive element on my page.
On the layout I am sharing today, I wanted to include a fun idea that also incorporates the school theme. A Library Card Pocket!
To create this narrow pocket for your page, gather a 3” x 10.5” strip of coordinating patterned paper, double sided adhesive, corner rounder and scoring tool.
step 1: Round the top corners only, on the paper strip.
step 2: Fold and score the paper at 6”.
step 3: Add double sided tape to the paper strip along the outside edges on the lower half and fold.
step 4: Using the Birthday Wishes patterned paper, trim a section to fit inside the pocket.
Complete the layout by adding journaling details to the paper insert for the pocket, a fun flower cluster with primary colours and a title that grounds all the elements to the page.
Thanks for stopping by the blog today. I hope this layout encourages you to document the details on your next “back to school” page!!
