I LOVE pocket templages! They're so eary to tell a story, by being able to put a lot of pictures on a page. I also prefer more "complicated" templates - with lots of patterns on them.

ones with 2-4 photos and places for pretty flower clusters.

I like templates with masking, stamps and texture. My fave are Anna's.

 

[Veronika]

I love templates that are simple and I also love templates with masks and I like unusual perspectives

 

[LSlycord]

I like templates that give me a place for lots of pictures and then give me a few elements that fit nicely with them.

 

[faerywings]

I use templates mainly to help me do clusters and placement of more than one photo.

 

[taxed4ever]

I love templates that have masks also, not too many places for elements. So nice and simple ones for me.

I know you love your flowers, Susie and you cluster them so beautifully. I'm not so good with them.

I love templates with masking, too, Rae!! I agree about Anna's!

Same here - that's a great description - I was trying to say something similar - I love templates like that.

Templates with places for lots of pictures are so easy for me too, Linda! They're great for family layouts, too.

Same here - I'm not the best at clustering and they sure help me with that, too!

Another template with masks here, too!

I'm with @bcgal00 @faerywings @Veronika and @taxed4ever I'm not good with clusters so I get great ideas from templates. Love Anna's, and I wasn't always a pocket scrapper but Karen Schulz coverted me and Lilach has spurred me on.

I am a huge template fan! I love those that allow me to place several photos without the page looking too crowded or 'boring' - page composition is what I look for in a template. I love Anna's templates because they are super versatile. I also love Lynn Grieveson's spin on multi-photo pocket pages, Rachel Jefferies's pocket art, Lilach Oren's mess the pocket series... mostly because these don't really look like a basic grid...

I don't like simple templates - if I see a nice minimalistic page - I can easily scraplift it, thoght I have a bunch of simple templates I downloaded as freebies in the past.

I NEVER use templates for clusters - I like seeing clusters on a template and they serve as primary inspiration, but once I've placed my photos and clipped papers I would delete all bits but splatters, word strips and tags.

I'm not good with clusters, either and love both of these designers, too.

Ohhhhh, I'm a huge fan of Lynn's templates, too. Hers were some of the first ones I really fell in love with! I'm a big pocket page fan, too!

100%- I would never, ever attempt pocket scrapping without a template

 

[zanthia]

like single photo templates ( 2 are ok too) and ones with masks

 

[scribler]

I love artsy pocket templates. Not only are they great for regular pocket scrapping but they are great for art journaling too.

I'm with @bcgal00 I love Anna's templates! # of photos depends on what I'm scrappin' - could be a couple or 5-6ish
