I see the Pocket Pages much like I see a sketch. One, because they can be a great starting point and two, they both make scrapbooking easier which allows me to have more fun with the little details and hand touches I like to add. The layout/sketch I made this month really shows that.
Here's a look at the new sketch:
If you want to download the full sketch with measurements and placements be sure to visit the Simple Stories blog and check out my post. You can find the link to download the sketch right under the picture of the sketch.
Here's a look at my layout based on the sketch:
There are a lot more pictures in my post at Simple Stories if you want to see all the little details.

Ohh, I would so love a new sketch book! Great giveaway.
Awesome sketch as usual Allison. I just love this sketch. So do-able and fun! I plan on using this sketch very soon! And what adorable photos.
I have both books- THEY ROCK- so skip over my name for the giveaway!
I love the divided page style for getting lots of pics on a page. I've worked on two pages worth of designs with this concept. I have the Fusion, would love the Sketch Magic! Thanks!
wonderful sketch and layout.. just love it..
The stitching adds SO much impact - I especially love it on the BOOM card! Wish I had the patience! (; As always, gorgeous work! I'll be doing this one for sure! And thanks for the chance to win a book! (:
Oh, and my comment showed up on SS as Maria W, btw. (;
I too love playing around with the pocket pages, especially in my kids school days scrapbooks (only thing I scrap 12x12). So happy to see sketches for them now!
I love the look of the pocket pages, but I haven't tried them yet. I always love looking at your pages - they give me so much inspiration!
I love how this combines a traditional layout and the simple stories layout as well.
Love the idea of combining the old with the new! I am thinking of doing my first 12x12 book this way for a vacation trip I will be taking very soon! Thanks!
Awesome give away, awesome sketch! Thank you!

Very nice sketch! I especially like that 6x6 pads would come in handy if you didn't have the cards.
I also have both books already so I can be skipped for the giveaway.
Such a beautiful layout, thanks for the sketch !
Love your sketches and layouts always! Love the stitching on the cape. You are the queen of stitching!
What a great sketch & the colors are wonderful!
Beautiful layout!
This sketch rocks!! I love how the grid design on the 12x12 page complements the pocket page on the right. And how CUTE is that little cape you've sewn(?) on the boy figure. Cute layout + pictures and awesome sketch!
I'd love to win a sketch book. Thanks, Allison!
Love your layout (and black and white photos) the SS product and pocket pages- another awesome example Allison! Thanks for the chance to win...

I would love to win either of those sketch books!
Great sketch that would make a combined layout come together so quickly. Jackson looks like he is having loads of fun as a super hero.
I love this sketch, Allison! The left page is super fun and I love how many pictures the right page features! Sketch Magic is definitely on my wish list, thanks for offering the chance to win a copy!
Gorgeous layout and thx for the sketch!
Such a great sketch and I love how you used the pockets!!
Thanks for the chance at the awesome giveaway! I'm such a huge fan of your work and this layout and sketch is no exception. I was excited to recently buy your "sketch fusion" book and would be ecstatic to get my hands on your newest one. :)
the best of both worlds!

Great sketch. Love mixing the different type pages.
Love the combination of the the two styles... my kind of layout b/c I still love traditional scrapbooking as well.

I love your sketches and use them as a starting point for my 8.5 x 11 layouts.
I LOVE this sketch!! Your LO is great, thanks for the inspiration!!
Great sketch! Love all the spots for 3x4 photos.
Love you work, Allison! Love your perspective on pocket pages and seeing them as sketches..this really helps me!
I love this sketch! I could use it over and over! Very versatile. And that CAPE... amazing!
What a fun layout! I love how you used black and white pictures. I haven't done any traditional layouts in with my pocket pages yet, but I do love how yours looks side by side.
Just stumbled upon your blog and I LOVE your work! I have just ordered all the new Snap! collections from my local scrap store here in New Zealand - can't wait for them to arrive so I can create and try some of your sketches :)
Love how your style works so well with the pocket pages. Thanks for all the great inspiration!
