Remember This Place | Bramble Fox

Hey creative friends! 

Travel memories have a special way of staying with us, and this layout is all about celebrating one of those unforgettable moments. Using the gorgeous 'Remember This Place' perspextive title from the Road Trip pack, a globe woodie from the Travel Woodie pack and a suitcase perspextive from the Travel Bits pack all from Bramble Fox. I created a vibrant travel-themed page, using Paige Taylor Evan's Adventurous collection, that captures the magic of visiting the iconic Leaning Tower of Pisa.

One of the first things you’ll notice is the striking border made from stamp-themed patterned paper. The colourful mix of travel-inspired icons—cities, landmarks, bicycles, and hot air balloons—creates the perfect frame for a layout dedicated to adventure. I love how this border instantly sets the tone and tells the story before you even look at the photos. From white cardstock, I cut out the large postage stamp cut file from the Love Letters cut file set. To keep the focus on the photos, I balanced the busy border with a soft blue background in the centre. This creates a calm space where the eye can rest while still allowing the bright elements to shine, I also machine stitched around the edge of the cut file to add some texture.

The 'Remember This Place' perspextive title truly steals the show here. Positioned across the centre, the layered acrylic effect adds depth and dimension that immediately draws attention. The warm tones of the title complement the surrounding embellishments beautifully while still standing out against the softer background.

I love how the arrow in the design subtly points toward the photos, reinforcing the idea of holding onto this special memory.

To bring everything together, I added clusters of embellishments around the photos and title:

• Floral elements for a pop of color and softness

• Travel icons like suitcases and stamps to enhance the theme

• Small hearts and labels for a playful, personal touch

The layering helps create depth without overwhelming the design, and each piece contributes to the storytelling.

A few finishing details help complete the layout:

• A subtitle reading 'Leaning Tower of Pisa' using alphabet stickers anchors the page

• Date stamping adds a meaningful record of the trip

• Small phrase strips like “Travelogue,” “Out & About,” and “People & Places” reinforce the travel narrative

This layout is a celebration of travel, discovery, and unforgettable places. The combination of structured photo placement, vibrant patterns, and that standout perspextive title creates a page that feels both fun and meaningful.

If you’re documenting your own adventures, try mixing bold patterned borders with a calmer central area—it’s a great way to highlight your photos while still telling a rich, layered story.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope this inspires you to remember your favourite places and turn those memories into something beautiful.

Happy scrapping!

Sunset Is My Favourite Colour | Sunkissed collection | Pretty Little Studio

Hi creative friends!

 There’s something truly magical about a sunset—the way the sky shifts through warm hues, the peaceful stillness, and the feeling of a perfect day winding down. That beautiful inspiration was at the heart of this scrapbook layout I created using the gorgeous Sunkissed collection by Pretty Little Studio.

For this design, I wanted to really lean into the vibrant, happy energy of the collection. The radiating sunburst pattern became the foundation of the page, I created a shaker pocket filled with sequins using the Sunburst transparency machine stitched straight onto the background patterned paper. This sunburst effect not only draws the eye straight to the photos, but also perfectly echoes the theme of a glowing sunset.

At the centre of the layout, I featured a series of small landscape photos capturing a serene lakeside sunset. The photos are arranged horizontally to tell a gentle, flowing story of the changing light across the water. To ground the photos and make them stand out, I layered them on a scalloped border and subtle embellishments that add texture while keeping the focus on the imagery.

The title, “Sunset is my Favourite Colour,” sits prominently across the design. I love how the bold black lettering contrasts with the bright background while the handwritten-style subtitle softens the look and adds a personal touch.

This layout is all about capturing a feeling—the warmth, calm, and beauty of a perfect sunset moment. The bold design combined with soft, playful embellishments like the clouds and stars I added, create a balance that feels both energetic and peaceful.

If you’re working with the Sunkissed collection, don’t be afraid to go bold with colour, mix patterns, and play with movement in your design. Let the papers guide you—they’re perfect for telling bright, joyful stories like this one.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope this layout inspires you to document your own favourite moments under the sun.

Beautiful Girl | Butterfly Kisses collection | Doodlebug Design Inc

Hi creative friends,

The perfect way to celebrate and document those everyday moments of love and connection, was using the beautiful Butterfly Kisses collection by Doodlebug Design Inc! For this layout, I wanted to create a bright, cheerful design that highlights a sweet photo while letting all those happy colours and playful patterns shine.

The standout feature of this page is the diagonal patchwork background. I created a grid of square pieces using a variety of patterned papers from the 6' x 8' paper pad —florals, ginghams, butterflies, and tiny icons—all arranged on a diagonal for a fun, dynamic feel. This design adds movement and visual interest while allowing multiple patterns to come together in a cohesive, eye-catching way.

To frame the page, I matted the white cardstock to the 12' x 12' Garden Gingham patterned paper that neatly ties everything together and keeps the layout grounded.

The photo sits slightly off-centre, layered on top of the patchwork design. I kept the photo cluster fun and dimensional with a mix of die-cuts, stickers, and embellishments from the Chit Chat and Odds & Ends packs and the This & That sticker sheet. A soft yellow mat under the photo helps it pop while still blending beautifully with the bright colour palette.

Around the photo, I built layers using flowers, butterflies, and small accents from the Bits & Pieces pack to create a balanced composition. The addition of fluttering butterflies across the page gives the layout a light, whimsical feel—perfectly matching the joyful theme of the collection.

The title “Beautiful You” takes centre stage, combining bold, colourful lettering with a handwritten script for contrast and personality. Placing the title close to the photo helps anchor the design and draws attention straight to the focal point.

Just beside the photo, I added a small sentiment piece that reads “Love You So Much,” reinforcing the heartfelt story behind the layout.

To complete the page, I sprinkled in enamel shapes and tiny embellishments, including a cute frog Doodle Pop and additional butterflies, to enhance the playful vibe. A few floral clusters at the top and bottom of the page create visual balance and guide the eye across the layout. I also drew faux stitching on each square paper to add some more interest and make them pop.

If you’re looking for a fun way to showcase your favourite photos, give this patchwork style a try—you might just fall in love with it!

Make A Splash | Sunkissed collection | Pretty Little Studio

 Hi creative friends,

Are you dreaming of summer days filled with sunshine, water play, and carefree laughter? The layout I am sharing captures all of that happy energy perfectly. Using the Sunkissed and Bohemian Dream collections from Pretty Little Studio, I documented a fun-filled outdoor moment that was truly all about making a splash and enjoying the day.

The bright, playful colour palette instantly sets a sunny mood. Layers of pinks, yellows, teals, and aquas come together beautifully, echoing the warmth of summer and the cool relief of water play. I love how the patterned papers from both collections mix effortlessly—bold polka dots, subtle textures, and soft grids add interest without overwhelming the photo.

To draw attention to the photo, I built a layered frame using a mix of papers, tabs, and ephemera. This helps anchor the layout while still allowing plenty of white space for the design to breathe. The Sunkissed pieces bring that fresh, summery vibe with phrases like “sunny” and “make a splash,” while Bohemian Dream adds a touch of whimsy with dreamy colours, arrows, and layered details.

The title, “splash the day away,” became the perfect focal point. Combining bold typography with hand-drawn elements and arrows helps lead the eye around the page and adds movement—just like the water-filled fun in the photo. Little details like bows, scalloped borders, and labels finish off the layout and give it a playful, handcrafted feel.

This page was such a joy to create and really shows how well the Sunkissed and Bohemian Dream collections work together. If you’re documenting summer memories, outdoor adventures, or those simple sunny moments, these collections are a perfect match.

Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look—I hope this layout inspires you to capture and celebrate your own splash-worthy days!

Happy creating!

Puppy Love | Bramble Fox

Hi creative friends!

 There is something truly special about documenting the bond between a person and their loving furry friend, and this layout captures the connection between my son and his dog perfectly! I was inspired by the cute Puppy Love perspextive title new in the Bramble Fox shop and it is so fitting, the pieces helped me create a bright, layered, and fun composition.

Using a playful mix of the Puppies & Houses perspextives, XO Love perspextives and both the Pretty Kitty and Doggone Cute collections from Doodlebug Design Inc, this page celebrates all the joy, comfort, and unconditional love that comes with having a puppy in your life.

The layout features two central photos placed slightly overlapping, both capturing a beautiful moment with my son and his small puppy being cuddled. These photos are supported by a cluster of patterned papers arranged in layers behind them, adding depth and texture without overwhelming the focal point. A stitched border frames the white cardstock background, while a colourful patterned diagonal stripe runs around the edge, tying all the vibrant elements together and guiding the eye inward.

The title “Puppy Love” is front and centre , layered over the photos for maximum impact. Supporting phrases like “My Furever”, “I Love You”, and “Best Friend” bring in that heartfelt sentiment and tell the story without needing too many extra words.

This layout is a perfect example of how mixing collections can work seamlessly when you stick to a consistent colour palette and theme. The cheerful tones, adorable embellishments, and thoughtful layering all come together to highlight a meaningful everyday moment.

If you are looking to document your own pet memories, don’t be afraid to:

• Mix and match collections

• Use dimensional elements for interest

• Let your photos shine with simple but effective layering

Because every wag, cuddle, and playful moment deserves to be remembered....

The Good Life | Butterfly Kisses collection | Doodlebug Design Inc

Hi creative friends,

There’s something truly special about documenting special moments spent together. those happy snapshots filled with sunshine, connection, and simple joy. Today I’m sharing a bright and cheerful scrapbook layout created with the Butterfly Kisses collection by Doodlebug Design, and it could not be more perfect for celebrating love and togetherness.

For this layout, I started with the gorgeous 'Happy Thoughts' patterned paper as the foundation, placing it off centre. The soft pastel stripes instantly set a happy tone and create the perfect backdrop for layering. To ground all of those playful colours, I added the 'Sunny Days' patterned paper underneath to ground the diagonal stripes. The contrast really helps frame the design and keeps everything feeling light and fresh.

The photo takes centre stage, layered with scalloped mats and sweet embellishments to help it shine. I love how easy it is to build dimension with the Odds & Ends and Bits & Pieces ephemera packs - those butterflies, flowers, and clouds add so much movement without overwhelming the page. A few butterflies fluttering around the photo bring that whimsical, carefree feel the collection is known for.

One of my favourite details on this layout is the title cluster. Using a mix of word stickers and die cuts, I layered “The Good Life” along the bottom of the photo, surrounded by flowers and tiny accents. It creates a natural visual anchor while still keeping things playful. The small banner at the top of the photo with “I Love You” adds an extra layer of meaning and ties everything together beautifully.

To finish things off, I added a scalloped border and a little stitching detail for texture, along with a few enamel dots for subtle dimension. These finishing touches help balance the layout and guide the eye around the page.

This layout is a reminder of why I love documenting everyday moments—bright colours, happy memories, and a whole lot of heart. If you’re looking for a collection that’s perfect for springtime stories, love-filled moments, or just celebrating life, Butterfly Kisses is an absolute must.

Pitch Perfect | Bramble Fox

Hi creative friends!

The Pitch Perfect perspextive from the Bramble Fox shop felt like the perfect fit for telling my story from a recent camping trip. This scrapbook layout captures the camping moments that feel important — not for the scenery or the perfectly pitched tent, but for the time slowing down, the shared effort of setting up camp, the laughter around the fire, and the deep sense of satisfaction that comes from being out there and making memories together.

I chose the Truly Grateful collection by Paige Evans for this layout and hand drew and cut out a tent shape on a multicoloured plaid paper (with a few practices on scrap paper first!) I also added a gold/yellow paper for some depth under the plaid. I chose the plaid with some blues and pinks so that the perspextives would naturally blend on my layout. I love how the hand drawn tent echoes the camping theme and creates a strong visual frame for the page. I added some twine as well to give it that 'ropes and pegs camping feel'.

The Pitch Perfect perspextive title, I placed at the bottom right hand side to balance the page and to draw your eye across the page. I also just had to add one of the camper perspextive pieces too, aren't they just the cutest?! Other little touches like the sun, moth, and leaves help tell the story of the outdoors while keeping the page light and fun.

For embellishing, I reached for Paper Snips #88 and #90, mixing pieces from both to add interest and layers. The sentiment tabs, date stamps, and DIY flair tuck in effortlessly around the photos, helping highlight the camping details without distracting from the story. I love how these Paper Snips make it easy to add small pops of text and colour exactly where you need them.

This layout is a lovely reminder that you don’t need elaborate techniques to create impact—just thoughtful composition, cohesive supplies, and memories worth celebrating. If you love documenting weekends away, outdoor adventures, or camper life, the combination of the Pitch Perfect perspextive title, the Camper perspextives, and Paper Snips #88 & #90 is a definite winning match don't you think?

Easter Gift Bags | Bunny Hop collection | Doodlebug Design Inc

Hi creative friends,

Easter may have come and gone, but you can get a head start on next year with these adorable Easter themed gift bags! The Kraft bags were purchased from a cheap store, I had so much fun creating them using the charming Bunny Hop collection by Doodlebug Design. They're perfect for Easter egg hunts, classroom gifts, neighbor surprises, or filling with chocolate bunnies and jelly beans for the little ones in your life.

The Bunny Hop collection is bursting with pastel perfection—think soft pinks, mint greens, sunny yellows, and sky blues paired with the cutest bunnies, chicks, carrots, and Easter eggs you've ever seen. The patterns include playful stripes, polka dots, repeating bunny motifs, and sweet floral accents that make every project feel fresh and festive.

What I love most is how well the elements coordinate while still offering plenty of variety. From the scalloped borders to the die-cut bunnies and gorgeous colors, this collection makes it easy to create polished, professional-looking projects without spending hours matching papers.

I created three distinct looks using the same collection so you can see how versatile these papers really are:

1. Pastel Striped Bunny Bag

This sweet bag features layered scalloped borders, mini jewels and the "Hoppy Easter" sticker from the This & That sticker sheet pops against tribbons and twine and a cute chicken Lil charmer for extra charm.

2. Chocolate Bunny Basket Centerpiece

The star of this bag is the adorable brown bunny peeking out of a blue basket filled with colorful eggs. I love how the orange "Happy Easter!" banner ties everything together. The background paper is covered in tiny bunnies and carrots for a fun all-over pattern. A brown grosgrain ribbon and carrot Lil charmer complete the look—perfect for a bigger gift or treat-filled basket.

3. Sweet Bunny Couple Bag

This design showcases two darling bunnies (one in a pink dress with a bow, the other in blue overalls) holding a carrot. The teal bunny-patterned background frames the scene beautifully, and I added bunny Lil charmer with twine, and a simple white ribbon with a Happy Easter tag for a clean, modern finish.

These bags are not only quick to put together, but they're also reusable or recyclable once the treats are gone and they're sure to bring smiles to anyone who receives them!
