The Simplest Things

The Two Corners theme starts out this simple 12x12 LO. The bottom photos are left full size so you can see the sand and white cardstock is added for an accent. Coordinating squares of patterned paper are turned into photo corners and tabs, to carry the color throughout the page. The faux notebook detail on the left is made with the Bind it All machine.

adding to a bigger page

Not everyone scraps 6x6 - I know. The beauty of the Simply Savvy Page kits is that they can be converted to alternate sizes! They will fit onto 6x6, 6x9, 8x8, 9x9, 8 1/2 x 11, and 12x12!
Here you see a page I made with the Quick Quad Scheme 2. Just 2 pieces of pattern paper in the corners of a Kraft 6x6 page.
Now you can take that page and add it to a 12x12 page.
SO what I do is create the 6x6 pages - these i put into albums for grandmas and grandpas. Then I take the same page and add it to a 12x12 to put into Laney's Album. Brilliant right? Actually I make 4 of the 6x6 page and then 1 12x12 all at the same time - and the 4 pages go to all the grandparents albums that I compile each year and give to them for Christmas. I work on it all thru the year - and actually do a lot of it in November of course!

Here is another 12x12 page that has a Quick Quad 6x6 added to it.
For this Quick Quad I wanted to keep one of the pictures 6 inches long - so i cut it to 3 inches wide and 6 inches long. Having it cut that way makes it take up 2 of the 3 inch squares on the page. Coolio!

Cut Components 12 x 12 Scheme

Mix it up a little by adding a 12x12 coordinating cardstock and cutting up the components to your page kit. The golden border and title block is made up of a 6x6 cut into three 2x6 pieces. The green journal block, as well as the blue circles and "together" tag were cut from a couple of the 3x3 blocks in the kit. I made the photo corners and the "S" from a 3x3 block as well. See Heather Scott's instructions on making this little accent that has big impact on tying your page together.
