Hello everyone! I'm excited to be blogging with you today for my first time. I've created something fun for you using a Simple Stories product I have had my eye on from the beginning...Memorabilia Pockets! They are irresistible and while you think they may be just for scrapbooking, today I've combined them with papers and embellishments from the Fabulous collection and have created a card and tag set.
I used the 3x4 Memorabilia Pockets (#2007) and found they were the perfect size to add a fun accent to the front of cards or to simply dress up a bit and use as a tag. Most definitely a staple here in my craft room.
The Fabulous 6x6 Paper Pad (#2101) is a card-makers dream. I love the bitty, smaller-scaled version of the beautiful papers included in this collection.
The Fabulous Fundamental Cardstock Stickers (#2102) are so much fun to create with as there are so many images to be discovered and enjoyed whether on a scrapbook layout or on a card for someone special.
I love pulling sentiments from the Fabulous Expressions Cardstock Sticker sheet (#2103)...so many possibilities exist in one little sheet, from cards for girls, a new baby, expressions of gratitude and encouragement, etc. Card-makers out there, you'll love this fun and fresh collection!
So happy you stopped by!
Products used:
Fabulous 6x6 Paper Pad #2101
Fabulous 12x12 Fundamental Cardstock Stickers #2102
Fabulous 12x12 Expression Cardstock Stickers #2103
3x4 Memorabilia Pockets #2007

Is there a source that has the memorabilia pockets? I just tried 3 and they did not have them. Any suggestions? Love the pockets, cards and all of the beautiful things you have made. I love your art and I love Simple Stories!
