Hello and welcome! I was due to post this yesterday but the day simply got away from me, sorry. I'm posting pictures of the photo/journal mats I made for my flap book project above. You can click here to see my tri-fold pages using Bo Bunny's pretty Country Garden paper collection. I was playing along with the CR84FN64 Color Challenge and I did not include these because some of the papers incorporate orange and pink which were not part of the challenge colors. Most of the photo/journal mats fit into pockets, underneath the left and right side, and were easy to create by adhering double sided tape to three sides of my designer paper. I love doing this because its almost like a treasure hunt when you start going through the book and discovering all the hidden stuff inside. ;) Okay, lots of photos so let's get started.
| First flap page, the banner is a cut out by MME & I used pages from SMASH pads as a way to record & personalize this flap book. |

| Cut out from the paper collection which will make a great place to journal. |
| Photo mat that coordinates with the cut out on the third tri-fold page of my flap book. Note: the file tabs were added to make it easier to pull the photo/journal mats out from underneath the pages. |
I hope you enjoyed this project and that it inspires you to create your own book to record those special times & memories. Thanks for dropping by and enjoy the rest of your day!
Hugs,
