Hi creative friends!
Today I’m sharing a layout that celebrates love in the sweetest way, I was given the challenge of scraplifting a gorgeous Christmas themed layout by my fellow design team member on the Pretty Little Studio design team - the very talented Yvette Weber. I also had to make it love, heart or Valentine's themed. I had so much fun mixing and matching a variety of Pretty Little Studio collections including Sunny Memories, XOXO, Perfect Match, Sugar Plum, Christmas Joy, Sunkissed and Document Life to create this love themedplayful, heartfelt design.
Yvette Weber's gorgeous layout below........
The oversized “XO” letters were created in the Silhouette Studio software and cut out with my Silhouette Cameo machine, these are the star of this layout. I arranged them similar to Yvette's Ho Ho Ho title on her layout. By combining patterns from several Pretty Little Studio lines—think subtle script prints, dotted textures, and candy‑stripe pinks—I was able to create dimension and a beautiful rhythm across the page. The blend of patterns keeps everything visually interesting without overwhelming the design.
Clusters of hearts appear throughout the page, each one a different pattern or texture pulled from various collections. I love how Pretty Little Studio makes it easy to mix older favorites with newer releases—the colors always harmonize beautifully. These hearts help guide the eye from top to bottom while reinforcing the love theme.
I added a black‑and‑white photo to contrast against the soft pastels and bold pinks. Framing the photo with tags, labels, and hearts gave it a cozy, anchored feel. I especially love the small date detail that adds a hint of storytelling without taking attention away from the main design. To complete the layout, I hand drew a border with my black journal pen and added a few cross‑stitch stickers beneath the central “XO.” These little details add warmth and the handmade feel I love in scrapbook pages.
If you're ever unsure about mixing collections, layouts like this show just how seamlessly Pretty Little Studio products work together. The combination of large typographic elements, sweet embellishments, and layered textures makes this page one of my favorites.
Thanks for stopping by today!
