Germany

There were several pictures that I wanted to include on this page, and decided to make use of a "filmstrip" cutting die that I got from somewhere.  It's hard to see in the picture, but the white border at the bottom was embossed using an A2 folder multiple times.  The pictures and journaling were all printed using Microsoft Word.  The title was from an old set of alphabet stickers that have been in my stash for years.  The "Germany" is a dimensional sticker from my stash.  Here are some more pages from Germany.

Pages 2 & 3:

Here's a dual page layout - While it probably doesn't look like it, the background pages are pieced so that I only needed 2 pages - one of the tan print, and one of the striped print.  The tan was cut in half.  The striped was cut in 4ths.  Then they were taped together with the narrow dark blue border strips covering the join.  As you can see, I also used the blue to mat the one photo and create the title.  Below is a closer look at each page.

Pages 4 & 5:

After posting these, I decided I wanted borders between the patterned card stock and the rest, so I went back and added some blue ribbon:

 We can take a closer look at each page below.

After combining two papers for a background for this page, I added the picture (matted in white), the title (stickers - some of them had to be pieced to get all the letters I needed), and printed journaling (I'm not sure why some of the letters disappeared, but I had to do some "fixing".)

This second page makes use of more of the printed card stock as border mat for some of the pictures, and a plain piece of card stock for the background.
