Week 15 Layout Linky - Pumpkin Carving Layout

Have you ever looked at a set of photos and wished you had just a little more room on your scrapbook page? Well, CTMH has a great solution: Flip-Flaps. They are clear pockets that attach to the outside of your page protector, and swing open so you can see the photos on both sides. CTMH started with Flip-Flaps for your 4"x6" photos, and then came out with a selection of 12" long ones in different widths. For this layout, I used a 12"x6" Flip-Flap and a 4"x6" one. I started with the pattern Top Hat from Magic, with the right hand page rotated one turn to the right, which is what you see when the Flip-Flaps are closed. The long flap on the left hand page swings open to reveal 4 more photos. On the other page, the photo next to the word "carving" lifts up and you see two more photos underneath. I fit twelve photos on this layout, and it still has lots of breathing space. For a multi-photo scrapper like me, this is just short of heaven!
