Digital Scrapbook Pocket Pages: June 2020
Catching up on sharing my digital pocket pages for June of this year. I got a new iPad over the summer and it's really revolutionized my scrapping process. As in I actually make digital scrapbook layouts now. While I have always loved making digital pages, it's been a struggle to do yet another thing on my computer. Once I'm done with work for the day, I don't really like to go back and sit at my computer, even if it's for something really fun. This is one of the reasons I picked up paper scrapbooking again. At the end of the day I'm not tired of scrapbooking, but I am tired of my computer. Since the iPad has a touch screen and I can sit with it on the couch, I find that it's considerably different than working on my computer. The iPad definitely has some limitations, but I find I can more or less work around those, and it's been great to really enjoy making digital layouts again.
I'm using Hooray by Sahin Designs for this spread, which is my birthday week. I love the bright colors and floral pattern in this birthday digital scrapbook collection from Elif. The perfect thing to use with photos from my own celebration.
This digital pocket spread uses the Good Life: August 2020 digital bundle. I used some of the great clusters from Jessica which make adding special spots on the layout so easy.
This spread uses the Good Life: July 2020 digital bundle which I did actually create with our summers at the Coast in mind. Both Jessica and I included clusters in this bundle, which again makes things super easy. I don't always have the time or remember to make clusters with my kits, but I sure do like to use them when I've made them. How about you?
This final digital scrapbook spread uses the Isaac Curtis digital scrapbook kit by Rachel. I felt like the colors for this one really fit my photos for the week, which doesn't always happen. My photos are often so random from the week that I don't really try to match them with anything. But this kit felt right to use with these photos.
Thanks for checking these out and don't forget to let me know how you feel about using premade clusters!

About Me
Hi There! I’m Marisa Lerin and you’ll see me around at DigitalScrapbook.com a lot. I started this site in 2010 soon after I discovered a new love in digital scrapbooking. DigitalScrapbook.com has gone through some significant changes since that time and it’s grown into this lovely community site you are seeing now. I am daily surprised by the turn of life’s events that has led me down this path. If you're new to the site, welcome! Here are a few tidbits about me that I hope will help you get to know me better!
I’m originally from Minnesota, USA, but spent a good chunk of my childhood living abroad (in Bolivia and Hong Kong). I returned to Minnesota to attend university, got married and then moved overseas again (Korea, then Jordan and 1 year of traveling). My designs are heavily influenced by these many nomadic years. I am currently back in the USA, now living in the great state of Oregon!
I have no official training for what I’m doing, since I decided very wisely (haha) to study physics in university. I am always learning new things about digital scrapbooking, and this community has been immensely helpful for that!
If I manage to stop digital scrapbooking you will probably find me watching TV, reading or baking. I also enjoy writing for the blog here at DigitalScrapbook.com where I talk about whatever happens to be catching my fancy at the moment.

@Elizabeth: I'm working with some plastic pockets right now. It's hard to fill in the holes, so in the future I think I'll make them without holes. The notebook templates I'm using right now has the "holes" on top, so anything I put under it looks like it has holes. What dimensions are working with for your pockets?

Love these! How much adorable can you stand!! Question. I have a digital scrap ... book. It's the same concept as digital planning but looks like a photo book. It has 3 rings to look like it's holding the pages. I've seen the plastic look page protectors on digitalscrapbook.com before but they have more than 3 holes. Amy idea where I can find 3 holed ones or how I would over the extra holes in others?
Gorgeous layouts!
I'll definietly be working on some tutorials for the iPad. I use it in combo with my regular computer, so that's not totally ideal for people who just want to use the iPad, but it you have both then you're good to go. I've been using the Photoshop app on the iPad. It doesn't have layer styles, so you can't do any shadowing. So I've been making layouts on the iPad, then adding shadows on my computer. Meagan has a lot of tutorials for the iPad if you want something right now: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCb-KGLK2MkNQJa76dtLnKIg
