Finesse A Fresh Fantasy With This Spring Scrapbook Layout

Posted on by Creative Memories

With the earth starting to thaw after a long winter, many want to add fun to their front yard or want to make their pergola pop. And that can be done by adding bright and beautiful flowers, lush leaves and divine decor! Take that idea and bring it to your next project — get a glimpse at blog contributor Sachiyo Omitsu’s spring scrapbook layout that gives off a dreamy, whimsical trellis vibe with plenty of fresh, floral fantasy! 

Spring-themed scrapbook layout with four photo placeholders, journaling space, stickers and embellishments.

To create this layout you will need:

Step 1: Use a piece of the mint weave tonal paper as the base of this layout. Draw horizontal lines and vertical lines with a pencil at 5″, 6″ and 7″ as shown.

Step 2: Cut four mats to measure 4″ x 4″ from a piece of the dark green blanket fabric tonal paper. Adhere to the page using the 5” and 7” pencil lines as the guide.

Step 3: Cut four 4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ pieces from the coral flowers and leaves designer paper. Align the left edge of the paper to 2-1/8″ on the “Punch Guide” of the Envelope & Bow Creator. Score “Line A” and “Line B.” Rotate the paper 180 degrees and align at 2-1/8″. Score “Line A” and “Line B.” Following the diagram on the Envelope & Bow Creator, use the “Notch Punch.”

Cut four pieces of 4″ x 4″ from the golden yellow sunshine bursts designer paper. Align the left edge of the paper at 2″ on the “Punch Guide.” Repeat the same steps as explained above.

Step 4: Adhere the golden yellow pieces to the coral pieces. Cut one of the pieces diagonally to make four triangle shapes. Cut two of the pieces diagonally in half. Adhere the pieces to the page.

Step 5: Cut four mats to measure 3-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ from a piece of White Solid Cardstock. Add to the middle of each mat.

Step 6: Use the Floral Peaks Border Punch to punch four borders from a piece of violet spring leaves designer paper. Cut each border at 1″ width. Use the 45-degree line of the 12-inch Trimmer to trim both ends of border as shown. Adhere to the page.

Step 7: Adhere stickers and embellishments, using Foam Squares on some for added dimension.

  1. This is very pretty tho I will use different colors. Not fond of that reddish border color. Love the feelings that are given off by the overall design.
