Giving Tuesday

For my third page, I decided to go with something that related to Giving Tuesday. Connor has gotten involved with Camp Kesem at UNC and participated in the fundraising goal that Carolina established. I love how this page turned out because it is an example of a page that requires absolutely no photos yet tells an important story of the season.

Not only is there no photo, but there is no journaling either. I used a standard pocket page with the 3″x4″ pockets on the top and a 4″x6″ pocket on the bottom. For the top pocket, I took a screenshot of the Facebook post that Connor wrote for his fundraising efforts. On the bottom, I printed out his goal along with what he accomplished. These are just screenshots taken right from the website and printed onto Basic White cardstock. I added DSP and a couple of the sticker strips from the scrapbooking kit and put everything in the pockets.

Before I explain what I did next, it’s important that the back side pockets are filled before this step. Just know that all 3 pockets for day 4 are filled and ready to go. I find sometimes that when you only focus on filling the pockets in the traditional way, the pages feel flat. I love to add elements to the top of the page which gives some dimension. For this page, I wanted to add a snowglobe but it is too big for a pocket. I cut it out from the DSP using the dies and attached it to the plastic page using dimensionals and then tied a double bow of baker’s twine and added it with a small dot of glue. I then added some of the Peppermint embellishments. If you know me, you are well aware that I look for any opportunity to add these adorable swirled dots!
