Happy Place Pockets with Michelle Gallant

Hey everyone, it’s Michelle Gallant, and I’m happy to be here again today with another guest post! While I created a layout for my first post, I decided to make a pocket page spread this time. I have to admit, pocket pages are not something I have a lot of experience with—I’m usually a layout girl, but I had so much fun creating this new project:


Supplies | May 2021 Kit, Smile Cardstock Die Cuts, Acetate Hearts, Springtime Stickers, Treasure This Vellum Stickers, White Typewriter Cardstock Alphabet Stickers, Puffy Banners and Border Stickers, Tiny Shapes and Dots Puffy Stickers – Warm TonesHappy Place Wood Veneer, Good Times Paper Stack, Fun with Borders Stamp

I very often like to work in color themes. Earlier this month I used blues and greens, this time I decided to use pink, yellow and orange. The building in my photos was teal so I printed my photos in black and white. Problem solved!

My daughter has always been such a good sport when it came to taking photos of her. She is always up for anything. I’m pretty lucky right? Look at this pose!

I used a lot of puffy stickers on this spread—the Tiny Shapes and Dots Puffy Stickers and Puffy Banners and Border Stickers. I just couldn’t help myself! Sometimes I need to remind myself that I don’t need to put ALL of the things on my page!

I think word stickers are my all time favorite embellishment.  I use them on all my projects and the banners from the Puffy Banners and Border Stickers were perfect to go along with this tag from the May 2021 Kit.

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope I’ve inspired you to create using your May 2021 kit and add-ons in pockets!

Hi everyone! my name is Michelle Gallant and I live in New Brunswick, Canada with my two teenagers and two cats. I started scrapbooking when my kids were little because I had so many photos of them. Little did I know that it would turn into a passion that’s still going strong 15 years later! I don’t have a specific style, it tends to change with my mood.  But I do love to use cut files and add lots of bits and pieces to my projects. 

Be sure to follow Michelle’s Instagram feed to see what she’s currently creating!

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful projects with us this month, Michelle!
