Peek A Boo Titles for a multi page layouts

This is a GREAT way to stretch special lettering, sticker art or a stamp design.

1. Design your artwork or title on page 1 and page 4. (see example) Don't place your artwork too close to the edge of your page. Be sure to leave enough room to cut the peek a boo hole LARGER than the artwork.
2. Decide what shape opening that you want the hole to be for your "peek a boo".The opening will need to be larger than the artwork that will peek through.
3. Use a window or a  light box and a pencil to determine the placement of your holes in page 2 and 3. Decide whether the hole will be round, square, rectangular or if you will use a template and make a 'fancy" shape.
4. Trace the shape for the hole onto the page with your pencil. Again, make sure that the hoe is big enough for the artwork to be seen in its entirety.

Peek A Boo Die Cuts for a multi page layouts

Same principal but this peek a boo is usually done in the shape of a large die cut at the center of the album. (see example).

1. Choose the design for your theme die cut- this shape will show on all pages and MUST be symmetrical. Also decide how many pages you will need for the layout.  The layout as shown is four pages or a double two-page spread. However, it would be easy to add a second peek a boo and make this a 6 page layout.
2. Decide where you will place the die cut shape and openings for your "peek a boo"
3. Cut the die cut out of colored paper and then cut it in half or if you have a purchased die cut cut it in half. The die cut must be symmetrical for a peek a boo page.
4. Using half of the die cut trace the shape onto your middle page with a pencil. Use an exacto knife to cut out the peek a boo hole. If you are using a Creative Memories scrapbook style page do NOT cut the jeeping, cut right inside of the jeeping so that your page will be stronger.
5. Use adhesive to place each half of the die cut on the appropriate album pages
6. Add the photos, title and journalizing to all pages and add a page protector or slip it in your top loading page protector.
