Scrapbooking with Very 3D Objects

I love to scrapbook and I like to have my pages in the plastic sleeves, but 3D objects don't work very well in them.  Well, I was determined to come up with a solution so that I could put my baby girl's hat and id bracelet in her scrapbook. First, I cut out a square where I wanted her hat to go out of some cardboard/fiberboard stuff. I also trimmed the top side and the right side a bit.  I would say it was about 5 mm.  I did this so when I slide this "thicker" sheet into the sleeve it has room.  The thicker you make it, the more you have to trim off the sides. Then on a second piece of board I cut out strips of card stock (out of a hideous hot pink I hate and never use) and glued them on. I ended up using 3 sheets of card stock. I cut out 12 strips and glued them together for the thickness I wanted. I added 3 squares to make it more sturdy and actually added one more in the lower right after I took the picture. You could lay down 12 sheets and jus...
