Bloom and Grow Layout by Antonia Sherlock

Hello crafty friends! Antonia Sherlock here and today I’m sharing my first layout using Paige's Crafted Moments collection!

My favorite scrapbook supply is patterned paper and I love using it to cover the whole background, but it can be a bit tricky to balance it against photos and embellishments. Lighter colors such as pastels are always easier to use - that’s why I chose the beautiful Stay Curious Paper for my background. I wanted to add some visual interest to the page, so I decided to do some hand stitching along the patterns. My French knots ended up a bit wonky, but I don't mind. After adding my photos, I created three embellishment clusters using Floral Die Cuts, Ephemera Die Cuts, Puffy Stickers, and Chipboard Stickers. I used a Cardstock Sticker and Mini Puffy Alpha Stickers for the title. I completed the layout by adding some heart Enamel Shapes. My layout is A4 size which is similar to the 8½x11 US format. I hope you find my layout inspiring! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Beautiful Jane Layout by Paige Evans

Happy Monday scrappy friends! Did you have a fun iNSD 2026? Here is the layout I made live on my YouTube channel to celebrate International Scrapbook Day 2026 and I used my Crafted Moments collection with Pinkfresh Studio!

Watch the process video:

This layout features (48) strips of patterns from the 6x8 Paper Pad cut to 1/2 x 3". I lined the paper across three rows of a royal blue cardstock background and then machine stitched with my Brother Sewing Machine through the middle of each row. To add lots of texture I bent up the paper edges. As an optional step I splattered watered down white acrylic paint over the background, centering the splatters on the right side where my photos would go.

After the paint dried, I glued two 3x4" photos of Jane on the right side and topped them with my "beautiful" title cut file which you can download HERE. "JANE" first nicely under the title which I made with the navy blue Mini Puffy Alpha Stickers. Then I tucked several Floral Die Cuts under the top and bottom edges of the photos and placed a sentiment floral heart from the Ephemera Die Cuts above the pics. A pink floral postage stamp from the Chipboard Stickers adorns the left edge of the left photo. To finish I wrote journaling with a white Gelly Roll pen on the bottom right corner.

Thanks for stopping by! I really appreciate it and hope you're inspired!!

You Make Days Brighter Layout by Ali Skifton

Hello friends! Ali Skifton here with you today sharing a layout made with Paige's Crafted Moments collection!

I cut 18 of the hexagons from the Crafted Moments Paper and I love how they fill the white cardstock background. To keep everything neat and consistent, I used a ruler to poke evenly spaced holes around each hexagon before stitching. I typically use six strands of thread so the stitching really stands out and adds that textured detail I love. I double-matted the Easter photo of my mom and embellished it with Floral Die Cuts, Cardstock Stickers, Enamel Shapes, Metallic Enamel Dots, and Chipboard Stickers for the title. I finished the layout with three mini hearts added onto a few of those lovely hexagons.

Keep Growing Layout by Paige Evans (with Process Video!)

Here is the layout I made live for Scrapbook & Cards Today to celebrate International Scrapbook Day 2026 using my Crafted Moments collection with Pinkfresh Studio!

Watch the start-to-finish process video here:

To create this layout, first you'll need to download my Diamond template on the SCT blog post HERE. There is an option for a diamond with stitching holes if you want to go the extra mile and hand stitch around each diamond! Cut 25 diamonds from the papers in the 6x8 Paper Pad. I machine stitched around each diamond with white thread and then piece them across a light purple cardstock background.

Next I splashed white acrylic paint and a few coordinating watercolors on the background. I topped each diamond with a tiny button from my stash. Two 3x4" photos of me were adhered to the right side and then I embellished with Puffy Stickers, Cardstock Stickers, a label from the Ephemera Die Cuts for journaling, and a few Enamel Hearts.

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to pick up my Crafted Moments collection!

In Bloom Layout by Paige Evans

Happy International Scrapbook Day 2026! Here is the layout I shared along with a challenge to use FLOWERS in my Happy Scrappy Place Facebook Group!

 Goodness knows I love flowers so it was my goal to make them the main focal element on this layout and I had a jolly time hand stitching through the floral wreath on the Worth Remembering Paper and a few of the Floral Die Cuts from my new Crafted Moments collection with Pinkfresh Studio!

I layered the stitched flower die cuts over the stitched wreath and then tucked in two 3x4" photos of Jane in front of a blooming pink tree in Santa Fe. I turned a few Rub-On Transfers into die cuts, added them above the photos along with a sentiment Chipboard Sticker, sprinkled Enamel Dots around the outer part of the wreath, and placed two tiny flower Puffy Stickers on opposite sides. To finish I wrote journaling with a purple pen on the lower right side.

Here are a couple more detail shots:

Good Things Layout by Paige Evans

Hello scrappy friends! For this layout I backed my Photo Wheel Cut File with patterned papers from the TAKE NOTE collection by Simple Stories as well as six black & white photos of darling Jane.

I embellished with tone-on-tone florals, self-adhesive brads, and enamel dots. A title in the center along with journaling written around the inner circle finished up this quick & easy page!

I may go back and splash some watercolors and white acrylic paint splatters to add another layer of interest :)
