Say “Blue-ya” With This Blue Scrapbook Layout

Posted on by melissaullmann

We’re saying “blue-ya” to today’s launch — the Cue the Blue collection is live! These blue scrapbooking supplies were inspired by sparkling ocean waves, moody rain drops, cloudless skies and every shade of blue’s classic character, from baby blue to midnight. You’ll love it for photos of time spent outside, family get-togethers, Father’s Day, birthdays and anniversaries. Let’s say bring on the hue with this blue scrapbook layout.

Blue-themed scrapbook layout with three photos of an expecting couple, embellishments and journaling.

To create this layout you will need:

Check out the Cue the Blue collection in the video below.

Step 1: Use a piece of white grid paper as the base of the layout.

Step 2: Cut a piece of light blue paper to measure 6″ x 12″. Adhere to the layout, slightly to the left.

Step 3 Cut a piece of vellum paper to measure 11″ x 11″. Adhere to the layout.

Step 4: Adhere a small mat to a larger mat, then adhere to the layout.

Step 5: Cut a large mat in half, then place overlapping the previous mats. Adhere ABC/123 Letter Stickers to the bottom edge of this mat.

Step 6: Cut three photo mats to measure 3-3/4″ x 4-1/4″, 5-1/4″ x 3-3/4″ and 4-1/4″ x 5-1/4″. Adhere to the layout.

Step 7: Cut and adhere photos — (1) 3-1/2″ x 4″, (1) 5″ x 3-1/2″ and (1) 4″ x 5″. 

Step 8: Cut a piece of light blue paper to measure 4″ x 4″. Punch along outside edges using the Clouds Frame Punch. Cut into fourths.

Step 9: Using the outside edge of smallest Circle Custom Cutting System Pattern and the Blue Blade, cut a circle from dark blue paper.  Cut into fourths. 

Step 10: Adhere the fourths of cloud pieces on the circles, then adhere in the corners of the layout.

Step 11: Adhere stickers/embellishments using Foam Squares for added dimension.

Step 12: Journal as desired.

  1. I assume the circle is cut on the outside edge of the CCS…that detail was left out of the instructions.
