Loaded Pocket and Folio

Morning and 1st of the month and the New Year-hopefully better t than the last - my post today is my first DT card for the ATG challenge at Love to Craft.
I made a loaded pocket using papers from ScrapAndMe,  I wasn't happy with it, then I made a folio to go inside and ended up quite pleased with it lol. Lots of oddments of paper from scrap box and lots are Tim Holtz I have had for years. Pockets cut with a die set from Scrapbook.com(thank you Vicki) Apologies for pics as light not good and papers are slightly darker IRL.

    Please add your card to the new linky at Creatalicious Challenges.
    As the free version only allows 50 entries per linky it closes automatically when it is full. I'll always try my best to add a second one as soon as possible then.

    Thanks,
