Again, for this week I just couldn't go past my new Me & My BIG Ideas pocket pages specialty cards. The green grass went perfectly with my little footy app insert. This particular pack that I used is the Sport pack and you can find it here along with all the MAMBI specialty card packs and other products at Scrapbooking From Scratch.
I also wanted to share, as I have been asked numerous times now, how the large photo is done. It actually is really simple for me as I print from home so for those of you that print in stores, you might just have to play around with the sizing. Myself, I resize to the width and length of the pockets I want to utilise and then simply crop down to fit. So in this instance, I printed the photo at 6"x8" size and then cropped straight across the middle at 4 inches so the I was left with two 4"x6" photos. I then crop the bottom half into two 3"x4" separate photos. Hope that sounds simple enough...Here you can see how I have cropped the large photo in more detail. See? Pretty simple really and very effective. I find this technique (if that's what you'd call it) great for when you don't really have many photos for a layout and you want to fill pockets.
Last but not least, my Thickers... I really can't rave about how much I love them enough. I honestly have gone through the washi phase, the cork phase (kinda still happening) and now my MAMBI phase but a girl needs to be honest with herself sometimes... I really REALLY love my Thickers! I thought they were a phase, even lust perhaps... But no; this is true, hopelessly devoted to you, love! lol ;)
