Lori here from ScrappinMyStressAway. I am currently catching up on last year's summer vacation layouts. I have way too many pictures for the pages I want to use. We also go to the same place every year so a lot of the pictures are repeats from year to year. I am always looking for ways to put as many photos in a layout without it looking like a photo album. This is one of my favorite tricks!
I start with a piece of white cardstock and cut it to 8x6.
I score it in half at 4 inches to make a "card" that is 4x6.
I use my Martha Stewart Score Board to score and crease the fold.
I put a piece of ribbon on the bottom of one edge. I use my ATG gun to glue it down.
I take the best of the three photos and glue it to the front of the "card" over the ribbon tail.
I glue the other two photos to the inside of the "card."
I use my ATG gun to adhere the "card" to my layout. Here I matted all of the photos in blue. I added the title and a little embellishments.
I hope you find this technique usefull! It is also a fun way to hide your journaling by writing on the inside instead of adding photos.
Lori... this is a fabulous idea! I need to do a few more of these on my pages!
