Year 6 Leavers Memory Book page 7&8

 

I have covered both the white pages with red card. 

I created a pocket on page 7 by cutting the nesting die cuts in half and then attaching the white element by gluing three sides and then covered the pocket with red card. I die cut the sentiment with a Sheena Douglass die and added it to the front of the pocket. I die cut the tags using a Tonic die set and completed them with ribbon. I then added decorative elements. 

On page 8 I created more layers and scored the white element to create a glue panel and then attached it to the page. I added satin ribbon between the layers to fasten the completed page. This sentiment is also a Sheena Douglas die.

On page 5 I have used dies from the Memory Book 2 collection. I have cut three of the smaller pages to make this layout. I have scored the card to leave a glue tab to attach the elements to the page. I have created a belly band around the element and added a sentiment incorporating magnets to fasten the design. I added the decoration which I found on cheap greetings cards. 

On page 6 I used various sizes of the die set to cut panels to assemble for this page. I added magnets between the layers to fasten the elements.  I printed personalised details and die cut them with a Presscut cut and then matt and layered it before attaching to my page.
