In today’s scrapbook layout process video, I’m sharing a simple color trick—let your photos pick the colors for your layout. Choosing colors for a scrapbook layout can sometimes feel tricky—especially when a paper collection leans heavily toward one color. In this video I’m sharing a simple scrapbooking layout color trick: let your photos pick the colors! For this 2 page scrapbook layout process, I used the gorgeous Garden Poetry collection and paired it with the brand new Capturing Smiles stamp and die set. My photos feature my granddaughter wearing a beautiful green dress in a Little Miss contest, so instead of limiting myself to just the greens in the paper collection, I looked closely at the colors in the photos to help expand the color palette and create a layout that really pops. You’ll see how I: • Use my photos to guide the color choices on a scrapbook page • Add subtle interest to the background by alternating the A and B sides of patterned paper • Create a unique background using circle rings that reveal both sides of the paper • Make simple but beautiful embellishments with second generation stamping (stamping off) • Use circles as design elements to add movement and softness to the layout The result is a simple but elegant two-page scrapbook layout with lots of subtle texture and visual interest. If you ever feel stuck when choosing colors for your scrapbook pages, this trick of letting your photos help guide your color palette can make designing layouts so much easier. I’ve also included my free Cricut Design Space link below so you can recreate the layout elements in your own scrapbooking projects.

In today’s video I have a scrapbook layout share! I have one scrapbooking theme created three different ways, from clean and simple pages to more elevated designs — so there’s truly something in this scrapbook layout share for every style of scrapbooker. I focused in this scrapbook layout share on showing ways to stretch the theme from valentines to so much more! I have created versatile scrapbook layouts for baby, outdoor, everyday moments, reading, 4th of July and more! Using the Made with Love and Love Story collections, I’m sharing: A 6-page Love Story workshop A 10-page Made with Love Simply Scrappin’ workshop A 12-page Love Story Sparkle & Shine workshop That’s 28 love, everyday, 4th of July, outdoor, family and more scrapbook pages, all created from the same overall theme but designed at different levels — simple, stepped-up, and more detailed for avid crafters. You’ll see how I take one paper theme and: ✔ Keep pages clean, simple, and repeatable ✔ Elevate layouts with shaker windows, free printables and hidden journaling ✔ Add interactive details without overcomplicating the design The Love Story/Made with Love collection is especially fun with so many tones of red and a bright feel.
