Layout by Monique Lowe


Thursday, February 5, 2026

Hi creative friends! Monique Lowe here popping in with a colorful new layout to share with you! For this page, once again, I mixed Paige’s fabulous Lovely Lane and Legendary collections - because honestly, they play so nicely together!
I started by pulling out the Lovely Lane 6x8 Paper Pad and the Legendary 6x8 Paper Pad and grabbed two square punches (1 inch and 2 inch). I punched a couple of squares from most of the patterned papers then cut each square in half to create triangles. Next came the fun part! I began placing the triangles down my page - some pointing up, some pointing down - nestling them into each other like little jigsaw pieces and leaving tiny gaps between, ordering them in rainbow sequence on a white cardstock background. Once I was happy with the arrangement, I snapped a quick phone photo then removed a few pieces at a time and used the packaging technique with watercolors to add soft, tone-on-tone mixed media to the background. Once everything dried, I replaced all the triangles using my phone photo as a guide to stick them down. I planned to place my photo trio down the center, so I popped up some triangles around that area with foam squares for extra dimension. I then added my black & white photos, also raised with foam squares, and tucked Cardstock Stickers behind each one. To finish, I chose a title from the Legendary Chipboard Stickers and just like that, my layout was done! Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you feel inspired to mix and match the Lovely Lane and Legendary collections and create something colorful of your own!

You and Me Layout by Jackie Ashton


Wednesday, February 4, 2026

Hello everyone! Jackie Ashton here with my next Design Team layout using Paige's Lovely Lane collection with Pinkfresh Studio.
I started with various strips of patterned papers from the 6x8 Paper Pad added down the left side and across the length of my white cardstock background. I slightly distressed the edges to give them some definition. I matted two 3x4" photos with papers from the 6x8 Paper Pad and added it to the layout. In each cluster, which I added around my photographs, I included a Layered Sticker, a heart from the Hearts & Stars Die CutsEnamel Dots, and Chipboard Stickers. I also added a mini cluster to the top right using patterned papers and a Chipboard Sticker. For my title I combined Puffy Alpha Stickers and Mini Puffy Alpha Stickers to the right of my photographs. I love how this came together and hope it inspires you to use the 6x8 Paper Pad!

Flower & Heart Wreath Layout by Inessa Persekian


Tuesday, February 3, 2026

Hey friends! Inessa Persekian here and this layout just makes my heart so happy! I used Paige's Lovely Lane collection from Pinkfresh Studio to document one of my favorite recent moments - our new pup Paisley taking a nap in my arms.
For this page, I really leaned into the Floral Die Cuts and Hearts Die Cuts to create a soft wreath design that frames the 3x4" photos perfectly. I love how the mix of florals and hearts feels cozy, sweet, and full of love - which felt exactly right for a brand-new puppy page. I used the Puffy Alpha Stickers for the title, added a few Layered Stickers and Cardstock Stickers for subtle detail, and finished it off with small Puffy Stickers and Enamel Dots for just the right amount of dimension and shine. The Brave Heart Paper was the perfect grounding base to let all those pretty details stand out. This page is such a sweet reminder that the everyday moments - especially the furry ones - deserve to be documented too!

Stitched Books Layout by Audrey Mutschall


Monday, February 2, 2026

Hello friends! Audrey Mutschall here with a school-themed layout featuring Paige’s amazing Legendary collection.
My son Dylan absolutely loves reading so I made a page with lots of books to document his grade eight school portrait. I started by gathering the yellow, blue, and green patterned papers from the 12x12 Paper Pack and chose six of them for my books. The specific papers I used are Creative Energy, Life in Progress, On Repeat (both sides), Next Level Content, and Real Life. To make the books I cut out rectangles in various sizes, rounded the corners just a little, and then added hand-stitched borders in coordinating embroidery floss colors. The stitching isn’t necessary, but I love the texture it creates! I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out a brick pattern on white cardstock for my background and then arranged the books on the page. I added my photo on top of a stack of books, and embellished around it with patterned papers from the 6x8 Paper Pad, Ephemera Die Cuts, Journaling Die Cuts, and a Cardstock Sticker. I added titles to my books using the Fabric Borders and Chipboard Phrase Stickers. I had so much fun creating this school-themed page and I hope it inspires you to check out Paige’s Legendary collection!

Life Right Now Layout by Antonia Sherlock


Thursday, January 29, 2026

Hello crafty friends! Antonia Sherlock here and today I’m sharing a special layout I created using Paige's Lovely Lane collection! It’s special because it documents an achievement in my professional life, and also, because I used practically no patterned paper on this layout - which is most unusual for me!
I wanted the hexagon frames from the Chipboard Stickers to be the focal point of my layout, as these are so exquisite. I placed them on the white cardstock background stacking them one above the other. I placed the two larger frames in the center - one for my photo and one for the title. I used both the Puffy Alpha Stickers and the Mini Puffy Alpha Stickers for the title. I tucked Floral Die Cuts behind the larger frames. I used the smaller hexagons to create embellishment clusters, using inspirational phrases and small embellishment pieces from the various embellishment packs in this collection - so many texture choices: Cardstock StickersChipboard Stickers, and Puffy Stickers! To complete the clusters, I added heart Enamel Dots and wrote my journaling around the hexagons. I also added some gold ink splatters as a final detail. I hope you find my layout inspiring and thanks so much for stopping by!

Hearts Layout by Ali Skifton


Wednesday, January 28, 2026

Hello friends! Ali Skifton here and today I’m sharing a heart-filled layout featuring me and my mom. I used the free heart cut file from a recent Paige Evans Newsletter along with her gorgeous Lovely Lane collection and I just love how it all came together!
The pretty floral papers from the 6x8 Paper Pad were perfect for backing the hearts. I added a photo of me and my mom that was taken at my dad’s birthday and this collection felt like the perfect fit to highlight my beautiful mother. To give the hearts some dimension, I used crafty foam tape to pop them off the page. I decorated three of the hearts with extra Floral Die Cuts and Puffy Stickers, adding foam squares behind the flowers to make them really stand out. Each cluster was finished with Cardstock Sticker word strips and a few Enamel Dots for extra detail. To fill in some of the white space between the hearts, I grabbed a coordinating purple ink and stamped small dots across the background. I love how it ties everything together. Hearts aren’t just for partners - they’re perfect for celebrating any loved ones in your life!

Northern Lights Layout by Valerie Bisson


Tuesday, January 27, 2026

Hi friends! Valerie Bisson here sharing a layout with you featuring Paige’s Lovely Lane collection for that perfect pairing of an amazing Northern Lights display.
Since I chose to make a page showcasing Northern Lights I thought the stars from the Hearts & Stars Die Cuts were the perfect starting point. I decided to use all the stars in the pack, scoring and folding each one for a little bit of dimension and interest. For the background I chose the blue cardstock from Paige’s Adventurous collection found in the 12x12 Project Pad. I splattered white acrylic paint across the entire background to add to the starry effect I wanted to create. When that was dry I added my photo in the center with the title right above using the Mini Puffy Alpha Stickers and the Puffy Alpha Stickers. In addition to the title I added a sentiment from the Rub-Ons. Next I added my journaling block right below the photo which I got from the Legendary collection Journaling Die Cuts. After this I added all the stars scattered to fill the background using dimensional foam adhesive. Lastly I sprinkled Enamel Dots throughout for more pops of color. I love how this page turned out and I hope it sparks an idea for you on your next layout!
