A scrapbook layout? Yep!

Hey everyone! Hope you're all doing well. Lately my craft style has been all over the place. At the moment, I don't have a particular style I'm creating with. I am definitely still loving the Tim Holtz look (vintage, distress, etc.), and of course I still love all things kawaii (cute)!

I've recently joined a ning site called "Scrapping Carolina". I decided to participate in the two challenges going on right now. The first challenge is to create a two-page scrapbook layout. One page should include a flap and the other page should include a tag and pocket. If you know me, I'm not a scrapbooker so this was definitely a challenge for me. These are the pages I created:

The top space is for a picture and the bottom space is where my flap is. It's held shut with the flower.

I stamped a journaling spot on the left side of the flap, and another picture can fit on the right side of the flap.

This is the page with the pocket and tag.  The orange die cut is for a picture and the tag is for some journaling or another picture. The pocket was made using a Nestibilities die and the tag was cut from a Marvy punch.

I used the Honey Cake paper pad from My Mind's Eye. I don't usually use orange in my projects, so this layout is definitely out of my comfort zone.  I'll be posting my project for the second challenge on Saturday as I'm also using it for a mini hop I'll be in with "Just A Few Friends".

Please stop by Scrapping Carolina when you have a moment. The ladies there are a riot and so very talented!  I hope you're able to join us there for the challenges. Until next time, take care and stay safe.
