Hey, everyone! It’s Bea here and I’m so excited to be
rounding off ‘Double page scrapbook layouts’ weeks on the Crate Paper
blog! I have to admit that I rarely create a double page layout so today’s
project was a little bit challenging for me. But trying new techniques and ideas
is always fun, and I enjoyed so much moving out of my comfort zone!
To create my layout I used the adorable Magical Forest
collection. As you can see, this time I decided to use 8.5x11” size layouts as
the parts of my project. For both pages, I chose the Childhood patterned paper as
the background. I trimmed down the papers into 8.5x11”, and I placed them next
to each other with the rainbow pattern side up. I knew that I wanted to use a
large photo for my layout, so I printed out one of my favorite photos of my
daughter and me from last fall. My idea was to decorate the left side of the
layout mostly and to add the large photo with journaling tags to the right.
I started to create the left side with fussy cutting a
bunch of beautiful flowers and leaves from the Meadow patterned paper. I also
cut some simple flower shape from patterned papers using my electronic cutting
machine. I added dimension to the flowers with bending up a little bit the
petals. I arranged all those beauties around the page. I used foam adhesive to
add more dimension.
I chose a piece of ephemera with the meaningful ‘Grow
like a wildflower’ phrase as my title, and I adhered to the center of the left
page with a fabric bow under.
Magical Forest collection is jam-packed with cute
animal stickers and I couldn’t resist adding the adorable bunny and fox
stickers to my flower cluster. Can you find the tiny grasshopper on the left
side?
I hope you liked my layout and I could inspire you to
try out new creative ways to document your precious memories! Thanks for
stopping by!
