Uh oh...I think I have a new scrappy addiction.

I've had these divided page protectors from We R Memory Keepers forever, but I've never really played with them until today. With all the Project Life stuff I've been seeing all over the Internet, it really made me want to get some pics and stories put into albums. I don't have the page protectors that everyone is using for their Project Life stuff, but I did have these that have divided 4x6 slots:

So, I had created this page of Evan at his 1st grade Dual Language Christmas program:

But I had several other photos left of the same program, as well as a few papers, etc. I can't just throw photos away, but then again...I don't want to do 3-4 pages of the same Christmas program. So, I used the divided protectors and did this:

Back side:

Now, ALLLLLL of the pics from that event are scrapped and Evan's school album!!! :dance

I was able to include a Christmas note/card he had written to me in 1st grade, as well as a letter from Santa that he received. These pages were made in no time, and the best part....I used ONLY scraps and leftovers from other pages to create them! This is such a great way to use up all those leftovers! I will definitely be using my divided page protectors to get more pages put away!

I LOVE doing these kinds of pages! Super quick and easy. You can make them as elaborate or simple as you want. I'm a big fan. It's probably how I will get back into the swing of things after being out of the habit for so long.

I'm a big fan of doing these as well.

Looks great, Jenny! I have some of those page protectors, and I really like using all of the photos from an event!

That is an awesome idea!!

That is really cool - I was in a habit for awhile of putting the spare pictures I had leftover in between my pages but got away from it. I love the way that looks though - I 'll have to keep that in mind the next time I have an event.

Oooh love this idea! They look great Jenny! I've seen them in a few places too, but wasn't sure how to get started or incorporate them into albums.
