CM autum layout

 During the local Creative Memories crop, the coordinators share 3 technique or idea layouts with us, which are great to base designs on, and as you know, I love to expand with my own style.

This year they now give out a monthly challenge as well, it's been great to see so many of the crafters embrace this every month. This month it was to use Stickers, however we had to mat them and layer them. Of course, this was right up my design style (except for the fussy cutting this then creates.. lol)

I used up these super cute old Autumn / Fall themed stickers to feature on this layout. I have no idea where I came up with the uneven grid idea, it just kinda popped in my head and thought it would be fun to give it a go. It didn't quite turn out how I had imagined, instead it altered to something different and I'm actually really loving it!

This months local Creative Memories crop was a couple weeks ago. 
It is an event that I look forward to every month now and am so grateful to be able to surround myself with local crafters, all encouraging each other and sharing ideas. 

Let me know what you think!

Blossom layout

 

 Scrapbook Fantasies   Creative Team. 

Blossom

This is another strips & scraps element layout. Using leftovers can help extend the use of your collections and allow for so many more projects to be made.

Blossom started off with a white cardstock base and smooshing pink ink.

Diagonal torn floral pattern paper with thinner strips placed under it for layering.

Finish it off with some photo mats and clusters and the layout is done.

This is one that can be completed in under 60min.

So if you need a fun and fast layout design that doesn’t need too much brain power, this is a perfect example!

CM crop layouts April 2026

 March saw me back at the local Creative Memories group crop here in Yeppoon.

I had limited time and supplies, but it was fun to get another two more layouts completed. 

The first is a recipe challenge layout. I actually did this one second after lunch and had only 60min to get it thrown together as I had to leave early for sporting commitment. 

I didn't get time to add the embellishments. And definitely making this just for fun, so no photos.. 

Parade

This second layout was so much fun to put together. 

It is based on an inspiration layout using the flag banner on the side as the focus. 

Of course you know that I added my own spin by layering several times, adding in embellishments

Unfortunately, due to Easter and school holidays, there won't be a crop during April, but I very much look forward to the May crop session.

Classic non-Nautical layout

 catching up on updating blog posts that were not shared from my facebook page. 

This layout was made in OCTOBER 2024 as part of the DESIGN TEAM projects for the NAUTICAL DREAMS collection from  Scrapbook Fantasies .

Classic Non-Nautical layout

I wanted something classical and non-themed.

This Nautical collection can be used for so much more than beach or sea layouts.

I loved working with the fussy cut flowers and again, used a Mushroom coloured cardstock to soften the base and then added Blue & White misting spraying.

This layout is all about keeping it basic with plenty of layering. Essentially, it can be done within a hour (with pre-cut fussy cutting). So it’s a quick layout that can hopefully inspire even the most time poor crafters.

I don’t have a name for it or photo yet.

I do believe it will fit a wide range of photos and add the title to match afterwards.

I'm so thankful that Alicia, Quentin and the Redshaw family saw the spark in me back in 2024 to get back into crafting. Unfortunately it fell flat pretty quickly afterwards, but I'm not back at it. April 2026.. I am trying to catch up on posting / uploading projects and working on plenty of new one's as well. 

This time I wanted something non-nautical.

It’s fun being able to share with you an off themed layout like this with such a deep themed collection.

I started with a Mushroom cardstock base and sprayed Blue & White misting sprays on and drew around the edge to create a boarder with black pen for a fun background.

Using paper #2 I cut several 2.5“ pieces of paper into 4.5 / 4.5 / 4.5 / 3 / 6 / off cut

Then a few 3” pieces into 5 / 4 / 3

The blue & red were both 2.5” wide.

Red 3 / 3 - Blue 4.25 / 1.75

INK & BOARDER all pieces with black.

Plenty of black mats just .25” wider than the pattern paper.

There really is no rhyme or reason for the placements of the paper pieces, just still them down on a diagonal angle and then use foam tape to layer.

Cut off the excess that hangs over the edge and use those to layer some more!

The flowers are fussy cut from the Blue & Red paper #6

Photo mat to fit 5”x7”, however you can adjust it to fit your own needs and add a title to finish it off!

Autumn Twilight double page layout

 Threw together this double page layout at the end of October, following an inspirational example sketch used in an online virtual retreat.. Being a "fall / autumn" themed collection felt perfect as the sassy ladies in the USA that were also doing the retreat had Fall themed collections to work with too.

Lemon Craft - Autumn Twilight collection.

Of course, like normal I did change a couple things up with the sketch.. Mostly the photo mats. I kept the 5 panels on the base for both sides and used the smooshing technique underneath for some colour. I am absolutely stoked how this actually ended up. Quite a easy layout to put together and even better since I had pre fussy cut a 12x12 sheet probably close to 2 years ago.. lol

Studio Light Christmas theme layout

 Christmas themed interactive layout

Using Studio Light papers, I put together this interactive front hinge style layout with room for a large photo and two 6x4 photos.. Although the front journal cards allow for the options for changing them for more photo space.
