Water you up to today? Well, one thing for sure is that today marks a sea-nic, high-tide adventure — the latest-and-greatest collection, Serene Waters (full of water-filled wonders, painterly pizzazz and tranquil tones), has set sail! It’s perfect for showering your photos and memories of fishing trips, kayaking or stand-up paddle boarding, collecting seashells on the beach, oohing and aahing at exotic fish at aquariums, sunset cruises, watching the sunrise on the horizon and so much more. Let’s check out easy-breezy directions on how to make this water themed scrapbook layout!

To create this layout you will need:

Check out the whole Serene Waters collection in the video below!

Step 1: Use a piece of White Solid Cardstock (or a White Refill Page) as the base for this layout. Adhere a piece of subtle mint daubs vellum paper on top using Vellum Tape Runner Refill. Burnish to hide adhesive.

Step 2: Using the Rolling Sails Border Maker Cartridge, punch a border with bright blue brushstroke waves tonal paper. Trim to 12″ x 3-5/8″ and adhere to the bottom of the layout. Cut a 12″ x 3/8″ strip of White Solid Cardstock and adhere 1/4″ from the bottom edge. Cut a 12″ x 5/8″ strip of teal glistening ripples designer paper and adhere above the white strip. Cut a 12″ x 1-1/2″ strip of multi-hued blocks designer paper and adhere above the teal glistening ripples strip.

Step 3: Cut a 3-3/4″ x 2″ piece from the “Memories are forever” variety mat. Mat on a 4″ x 2-1/4″ piece of soft medium orange stripes designer paper. Adhere on the border. Top with a turtles laser-cut border and stickers.

Step 4: Cut six 3″ x 3″ squares of White Solid Cardstock. Adhere on the layout as shown. Cut two 2-3/4″ x 2-3/4″ squares of each cool stripes, soft medium orange stripes and teal glistening ripples designer papers. Mount on the white squares as shown.

Step 5: Crop two photos to 3-3/4″ x 5″ and mount on two 4″ x 5-1/4″ pieces of bright blue brushstroke waves tonal paper. Adhere on the layout.

Step 6: Add stickers and embellishments, popping some up with Foam Squares for added dimension.

Step 7: Journal as desired.

We are excited to see how you’ll cascade your creativity with this layout!
