We had lots of thunderstorms during the night on Friday which carried on into Saturday, which meant a day in my craft room :)
Before I went on holiday I watched Kathy Orta's preview of her new Retrospection 365 project and sketched some ideas whilst sat by the pool so thought this would be a opportune time to make them.
As these are pages with extra elements they are ideal for occasions photos where you have too many to fit onto a single or double page layout. I found some photos from Molly's 7th birthday party and the papers from last month's Studio Calico pack were just right for what I had envisioned.
I started by making a 3 pocket cascade ( in different colours) and attached it to the left hand side of a 12x12" sheet with a hinge. I then cut a 6x12" piece from another sheet and scored it at 3/4" to fold and attach to the right hand side so that the original 12x12" page was still able to be used as such and took inspiration from a sketch on Facebook.
I'm quite pleased with how this turned out and will be doing more of these pages for other collections of photos where there aren't enough to fill a folio but too many for a basic page.
Thanks for looking and feel free to leave feedback :) x
