Who has a box or two full of scraps in their stash? I sure do. I tend to give all my little bits and pieces to a teacher, who uses them in her classroom. I do keep bigger pieces for other projects.
As well as using scraps, I also used some retired black 12 x 12 cardstock. I think most of us have lots of coloured cardstock in our stash, and I thought photos really needed the black background.
I have used the following supplies, which can be ordered from my online store at

I took larger pieces of Designer Series Papers for this project. I had some half sheets and strips. I used a tearing ruler on all of my strips, which were various sizes and tore the larger sheets to match. I inked them all with a blending brush and blueberry bushel ink.
All my photos were matted on blueberry bushel cardstock to help them stand out. And I cut a blueberry bushel cardstock circle with the decked circle dies to add some sentiments on.
The strips were placed at random on each page. I added another Designer Series Paper to cover more of the black background. On the first page I placed the photos in a square pattern. The second page I tucked the photos into the strips.
I finished the page using the words from the Saying Something Ephemera pack and some of the pearls. Finally I wrote some facts about the photo images to finished my double layout off.
