Documenting Life Pocket Page Style

Documenting Life Pocket Page Style

If you have a teen daughter, you most likely have plenty of photos lol...some you have taken, others she has snapped while with friends...there really is no lack of photos in our house. While I love some that I have taken, it ends up being the ones that she shares with me of good times had while we aren't around that really share insight into her world at 15. I had several that had been piling up and decided to slip them into one pocket page, paired up with the I Am... collection.







These photos weren't taken in the same week. Heck, I think they may be from two different MONTHS...I could care less. Not once has my family ever called me out on silly things like timelines...they seem to love that the moments they assumed were insignificant ended up being quite the opposite. They remember the birthdays, the holidays and the vacations. But the day to day stuff? The photo of a new hair cut or the one taken immediately after a muddy soccer game? Those may have slipped their minds.



Until they showed up on this pocket page. ;)







The generic theme that pulls this page together might be the start of her sophomore year, but the photos + words actually tell more than that. Enjoying Friday night football games with her friends is part of her world but the photo I included from the game isn't showing the scoreboard or even the field. Instead I used the pic she sent me of her sitting in the stands after she and her friends took a few bottles of paint and 'wore' their school spirit proudly, lol. 







Just a reminder, not every pocket has to be a masterpiece...or filled with enough words to be worthy of a Shakespearean sonnet. I am perfectly ok letting a lovely card stand all on it's own, as seen above. A few flicks of spray mist were all I added, and I love the sentiments on both of these cards.



Bottom line?

This shouldn't be stressful.

ENJOY!
