February 2017 Scrapbooking Workshop – City Sidewalks

I love the City Sidewalks paper suite!  These four layouts include lots of Cricut cuts from the City Sidewalks digital Cricut collection -- aren't they fun!! 

I did use lots of 4x6, 4x4, and 3x4 flip flaps again – of course – I just love our flip flaps!  :-)  They are great for adding extra photos without creating another layout.  I also usually hide my journaling under one of the flip flaps.  

On the "I Ruff Christmas" layout (the 4th one shown below), I used a 6x12 flip flap to add a little pizazz to the layout as well as additional photo space.  This flip flap is included in the workshop kit.

Let me know if you are interested in joining our workshops.  We typically meet every other month.  The next two workshops will be in March and May.  We will be voting on paper packs from the new Seasonal Expression 1 supplemental catalog when we meet in February to decide what paper we are going to work with for March and May.




This is the "I Ruff Christmas" layout with the 6x12 Flip Flap on the right lying flat (closed):

These two photos show the "I Ruff Christmas" layout with the 6x12 Flip Flap lifted:



Note:  This is not part of the workshop kit, but I also personally used one of the new Pocket Plus page inserts (Design 3) for my overflow pictures of Santa that didn't fit on either of the two layouts I did for our visit to the Legendary Santa ("Tis the season to be jolly" and "Noel").  I also used two of the leftover PML cards (including one journaling card) that come in the kit.  I'll decide into which layout I will insert this page when I add the pages to my album (I'm leaning toward "Tis the season").  That's the beauty of these Pocket Plus page inserts -- you can use them in multiple layouts  They are another great way of adding additional photos or journaling to a layout.
