6X12 Birthday pockets | Scrapbook and Cards Today Magazine

This week Scrapbook and Cards Today Magazine is celebrating its 14th birthday and I created this birthday pocket page to go with the theme. I just happened to have several birthday photos that were waiting to be scrapped so I pulled the fun SCT Delivered Make A Wish Card kit I used to make cards with last month and I will show you today how I've adapted it to create pocket pages.

Supplies: Make A Wish Card kit, Bazzill cardstock, Tim Holtz tiny attacher, WRMK album, Becky Higgins page protectors

Once my photos were placed, my whole spread started with this Yay Yay Yay card. Part of the Crate Paper die-cut pack included in the kit, it was just perfect for a 3x4 pocket. I added a few machine stitches and another die-cut on top rather than inside the page protector as it was crossing "the boundaries" of the pockets. I like how it breaks the lines.

For the title card, which is my favorite in the end, I created layers with several Crate Paper die-cuts on top of a tag and added a bit of stamping. The kit has both patterned papers and die-cuts from the Hooray collection so everything matches perfectly.

For the journaling, I kept it consistent throughout the spread by using typed paper strips.

This kit, still available on the SCT site, might say "Card kit" on the front but it is absolutely fabulous for documenting birthdays!
