Scrapped! Episode 9 New In Colors

 


Welcome to Scrapped! Episode 9!
This month we are featuring in our Scrapped! pages the New 2025-2027 In Colors! 

I am a pocket Album scrapbooker but the other Scrapped! designers are the traditional  12" x 12" layout.


For this layout I used a card design to inspire my scrapbook page. 
You can get more details on this card when you click HERE. 


Above you can see the inside of the card with the stamped graduation caps from the Cap & Gown Stamp Set. 
The card is also a has a gift card holder pocket made from DSP and I made sure to add a pocket to my scrapbook layout. 


Instead of the Nested Essentials to be across the panels of In Colors, I put it in it's own pocket to become a "journal" spot. 


The New In Colors are all shown in the embossed panels of cardstock. 
From left to right the colors are; Darling Duckling, Cloud Cover, Strawberry Slush, Secret Sea, and Timid Tiger. I also used the Flat Pearls in the In Colors on each panel. 
I had to adjust the measurements from the 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" card to the 4" x 6" pocket size. 

Layout Measurements
4" x 6" Panel Pocket
Strawberry Slush: 4" x 6"
Secret Sea: 3 3/4" x 5 3/4"
DSP: 3 1/2" x 5 1/2"
Panels of cardstock: 1" x 3"

3" x 4" Journaling Pocket
DSP: 3" x 4", 4" x 1/2"
Basic White: 4" x 2"

 3" x 4" Pocket
Basic White: 3" x 4"
DSP: 3" x 2"




What do you think? How did I do with matching the card to the layout? You never know what can inspire a scrapbook page! Be sure to watch my video for tips, shop my online store for products and watch all of June's Scrapped Episodes!
