I have been sick all week but today I got out of bed long enough to do some scrapbooking. Those of you who follow my blog will know that I like the Stampin’ Up! small pocket albums.

I have just recieved a new pack of cards and stickers. It is called “Enjoy the adventure memories and more card pack”. It is NZ $21 and contains 50 cards or pocket inserts. They are great for journal boxes as I have used above. The cards are a mix of 4 x 6″ size and the smaller pocket size of 3 × 4″.

There is also 4 sheets of stickers.

I know this type of memory keeping is not everyone’s style. However these insert cards are also great for making a quick greeting card. No stamping needed!

For this birthday card. I grabbed one of the 4 x 6″ insert cards and trimmed a smidgen off each side so that it fitted onto a folded A5 card. I added some stickers from the same pack and some rhinestones. I cut a piece of Basic White card to go inside and I cut 2 cm off another large insert card. The same design as the one on front, just so I could bring the pattern through to the inside.

It was so fast to make. If you don’t like the idea of trimming these inserts to fit your card base, don’t worry Stampin’ Up! has got it covered. They make a card and envelope pack that matches these insert cards perfectly. Both the big and small ones!
