It’s Saturday and I usually share a simple design with you on this day each week. Until now I’ve always shared a simple card design but today I’ve decided to share a simple layout. I know that some stampers and other papercrafters can find the large 12×12 format intimidating but really…scrapbooking can be as simple or as difficult as you like. Don’t be afraid of white space, don’t be afraid of just adding one picture…make it simple and have fun with it.
One great place to start with a scrapbooking page is to use a sketch. They layout for the project below was inspired by June’s challenge on Webster’s Pages Inspire Me site. I tweaked it a little by adding an angle to the design. A little stamping for the title and quote and some patterned paper makes for a quick easy project.
Beautiful Summer
This layout was inspired by a fun photo I took last summer. There were lots of little girls on the beach that we know well…all friends and they looked so darling all chatting in a circle. The quote at the bottom…A long talk with a good friend can cure anything.
I’m at the beach for part of the day today. I’m hoping the sun and the break will be good for this summer cold I have right now.
Thanks for stopping by! Have an awesome weekend!
Julia
