Monday’s prompt from Shimelle suggested using page protectors in the construction of a LO, rather than just using them as what they are intended for. It’s the first time I’ve ever cut up a page protector, and it took me a while to work out the correct tension on the sewing machine.
In the end, I went with making two 6×12 wallets with 3 pockets for the Austria photos I am currently working on alongside this class. The pockets seen in the photo hold a collection of photos and journaling from a visit to Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest in Berchesgaden, Germany.
The second 6×12 pockets hold photos of Innsbruck’s stunning Altstadt architecture and will be added to a DLO on Innsbruck (when I’ve done it!)
I like how you made your pockets with the page protectors – what a great way to get more on to the layout.
