Using Pocket Cards

If you aren’t much of a pocket-style digital scrapbooking fan, you might not realize how easily Chelle’s Creations InstaLife and Journal Cards can speed your page making along. They can certainly be used to fill pocket spaces on templates, but they are also great as enhancements to any page. Chelle’s CT members have made a few pages as examples for us.

First, Jenn made a page in the pocket style, so the journal cards fit right into the spaces. She added some additional elements atop the pocket spaces, but the pre-made journal cards were dropped right into the spaces with no extra effort and are perfect for enhancing her photos and filling the spaces. She used Zoo Crew {Safari}, {Journal Cards}, and Animal Print Papers.

Next, Helen took a grid-style and used the Mickey Mouse Club March {Sampler} and matching cards to make a page that resembles the pocket scrapping style but has more layers added. She has stacked the papers in the background and added lots of fun embellishments on top of the page for accent.

Finally, Jan has taken a template that was made for lots of photos of various sizes and she used the square InstaLife cards that matched her kit in the square photo spaces of her page. She used Roller Coasters & Cotton Candy {kit} and the coordinating InstaLife Cards. The pre-made cards have the perfect accents for her theme already placed and shadowed.
