Just Because Challenge #3

Today’s marks the third project in my “Just Because Challenge” series. These challenges came from an online Pajama Party on May 30^th. Did you realize that the next online Pajama Party, hosted by Big Picture Scrapbooking and featuring a Cricut® “Artbooking” project from Close To My Heart, is TONIGHT at 9pm EST?!

I am really enjoying these challenges because they’ve got me doing things that I wouldn’t ordinarily do. Take the next slip I pulled from my “Just Because” container: “Use the photo pocket pages to create a layout – Add photos in some spaces and a decorative title/journaling into the other spaces.” I wasn’t even sure I had any Memory Protectors® Photo Storage Pages (their official name)! Ends up I did – they hold six 6” x 4” photos. Ends up I also had just the photos to put in it!

Right after the kids got out of school for the summer, we traveled down to Myrtle Beach, SC, to visit with my parents. While there, my parents had a visitor to their bird feeder – a raccoon! So right away, I decided I wanted to use the “woodsy” colors of Chocolate and Sweet Leaf, and some left-over paper I had from the “Cherry-O” Creative Basics Paper Pack (who remembers that one?!).

The arrows I cut & stamped are from CTMH’s BRAND NEW “Artbooking” Cricut Collection – available TOMORROW on my website! Click on any “SHOP WITH ME” link on the right side of this page!

I can’t believe how quickly that “page” came together! I just might have to do pages like that more often. If you’re wondering, CTMH also sells Photo Storage Pages with six vertical pockets. This is really fun – I can’t wait for the next challenge! See you all at the Pajama Party tonight!
