Create Continental Crafts With These Europe Scrapbook Layouts

Even though it’s the second-smallest continent by size, Europe more than makes up for its area with its iconic landmarks and sights, stunning cities, cuisine, culture and so much more. Blog contributor Sachiyo Omitsu had her London and Paris memories on her mind with these chic Europe scrapbook layouts — give them a gander!

Sachiyo’s Inspiration

The London & Paris Theme Pack brought me back to the times when I visited those cities long time ago. In London, I stayed at a hotel near Paddington Station because it sounded perfect for me — a teddy bear collector. It was around the end of February and may not have been the perfect timing to visit there, yet I enjoyed misty winter walks and admired the magical atmosphere of London.

When I visited Paris, it was the beautiful summertime, and all the historic buildings and monuments I saw were breathtaking and photo-worthy. My only regret is I didn’t taken enough photos because I was not a scrapbooker at that time!

To create this layout you will need:

Step 1: Use a piece of Blue Cardsctock as the base.

Step 2: Using the outside of the Jumbo Circle Custom Cutting System Pattern, cut a piece of circle from the England icons patterned paper using the Green Blade and then the Red Blade. Set aside a narrow ring for your future project. Repeat the same steps and cut a piece of circle from the London-themed words patterned paper.

Step 1: Adhere the London-themed words patterned cut out to the base. Add the circle in the middle.

Step 2: Cut a circle using the inside of the middle Custom Cutting System Circle Pattern with the Green Blade from the Scarlet Cardstock. Cut fringes using the All-Purpose Scissors. Adhere it under the “Long live the Queen” sticker using Foam Squares.

Step 3: Cut a piece of Scarlet Cardstock to measure 12″ x 5/8″ and adhere it under the U.K. flag laser cut border. Cut a piece of White Cardstock to measure 12″ x 1/4″ and adhere it under the “Cheers!” laser cut border.

Step 4: Adhere stickers and laser cut borders, using Foam Squares on some for added dimension.
