I found this sketch at Creative Scrappers, that worked perfect for me, as I wanted to fit a lot of photos onto one page. :)  And this worked nicely for that.  I also loveeee that Lasting Memories has a challenge right now to use "metal"...and when I started to dig through those decade old bins, I found metal GA-lore, and it all fit in nicely {I love to use up my older things}. :)  So here is my take, and Creative Scrappers sketch #207:
