Hi, friends! I hope you are seeing some of the brand new Heartwarming Collection on projects! This is my third layout!! I LOVE this collection so much! So far I have used it to document a sunrise photo, photos about a new baby chick (taken during the summer) and today's is some everyday photos from the park. It is perfect for so many occasions! I used the Counting Blessings paper for my background and chain stitched around each of the tags. If you like stitching and find it relaxing like I do this is such a fun way to add some texture and pop to a already gorgeous paper. I cut my photo's to fit inside four of the tags and distressed the edges of each photo. My title is a clear sticker from Cozy Autumn Words . To embellish I used three diecuts from the Woodland Animals pack (the big squirrel and two butterflies). I also added two circle pieces from the Bountiful Shape Mix (that pack is packed with goodness - a must have in my book!) I finished off with three little heart stickers .  That is it!! I love how easy it was to create and the big impact that one sheet of paper made!!

Sweet Life | A Colorful Scrapbook Layout Full of Hearts Hello. Shanel here... I'm so excited to be back on the blog today sharing a new design team project that celebrates everything I love about working with patterned paper! One of my favorite parts of creating for a design team is finding fresh ways to showcase a collection's beautiful colors, patterns, and embellishments. For today's 12x12 layout, I created with Pretty Little Studio’s Wildflowers collection - combining the Clover 12x12 patterned paper with its playful hearts, colorful paper layers, and a few handmade details to create a fun design around a sweet everyday photo of my pup. She is quite spoiled and very loved! She does in fact have a very SWEET LIFE! My goal was to let the patterned paper take center stage while keeping the overall design balanced and the photo as the focal point. I love how the grid design on the Clover patterned paper paper adds a little structure to the design while allowing all the bright colors and patterns to really shine. Also, the stitched rectangular border on this paper frames the main design. However, the real stars of this layout are the colorful patterned hearts cascading down the right side of the page! I added a little hand stitching to the hearts for texture and dimension, giving them that handmade look I love so much! Lastly, I stacked fussy cut hearts on top of them. For my photo, I layered a few coordinating patterned papers including the Fragrance 12x12 patterned paper , and tucked a small journaling label above the photo with word phrase stickers from this collection. I added a few fussy cut hearts from the Clover Patch 12x12 patterned paper around the lower corner. These little layers are always some of my favorite details to create! The large “Sweet Life” title from the GingerSnap collection overlaps the bottom of my photo and extends into the open space on the page. I love using oversized titles because they make such a statement and help anchor the entire design. To finish things off, I added a couple of sweet butterfly stickers with delicate white thread trails and a light sprinkling of ink splatters. These subtle details add a little whimsy without taking away from the clean background. One of my favorite things about scrapbooking is finding creative ways to combine patterned papers, texture, and dimensional embellishments while still keeping the story at the heart of the design. This page is a perfect example of how even the simplest everyday photo can become something special! I hope this layout inspires you to pull out your favorite Pretty Little Studio papers and have fun creating something colorful!

Hello Pretty Little Studio friends! Today I’m sharing a layout that documents a sweet back-to-school memory of Hailey and her friend Camila. This page is titled Friends Forever , and it felt like the perfect sentiment for this photo of the two of them on the first day of school. I love being able to capture not just the milestone itself, but also the friendships that make those memories so special. For my background, I used Best of Times from the Love Is Kind collection. One of the things that immediately stood out to me about this paper was the large heart already built into the design. I decided to really lean into that feature and make it the foundation for the page.

Hey, y'all! It's Jinny here today with a sweet pocket letter that, after 13 other projects, I made from some of my leftover Ginger Snap Collection goodies. If you're interested in viewing any of those other 13 projects, they can be found under "Ginger Snap" in my stories buttons through my Instagram link below; but for today, let's dive right into that 14th project. Shall we?

Hi, friends! Who out there decorates for Christmas on November 1st? My daughter does but not me, I am a wait until after Thanksgiving girl!! But I can scrapbook Christmas any day of the year! And this super bright and happy Candy Cane collection is always a winner!! I did use a few items from the Christmas Cheer collection that I am not able to link to the store, but everything from Candy Cane is linked here. My background is called Joyful from Christmas Cheer as well as my title 3x4 card. I used Santa Shop paper to tear strips for the top and bottom of my layout and to mat my photo. I also used a scrap of Life is Sweet paper and Cherry Coated paper to add torn layers. I used two tags and some packaging to layer behind my photo. To embellish I punched out a few stars out of scraps. I used some little candies , trees and a fun phrase to add lots of fun little extras. I also added a sticker phrase to the top of the photo. (* when I was editing my photo it messed up my picture and I had to layer over it in Canva. I did not get it perfect, plus the phrase looks blue at the top and white at the bottom. I assure you it is not, it was just my clumsy edit that caused that!)

Warm colors, cozy textures, and charming seasonal details make autumn one of my favorite times to sit down in my craft room and create something beautiful to share. Today, I’m featuring a fall-inspired card using Pretty Little Studio’s Ginger Snap collection, filled with all the warmth and whimsical details that make this time of year so inspiring. For this card, I wanted to capture the feeling of a crisp autumn day with a palette of golden yellow, rusty orange, warm cream, and rich terracotta. These colors work together beautifully to create a cozy fall design that feels both playful and nostalgic. I started with a golden yellow card base and layered several patterned papers to add depth and interest. The cream-and-yellow diagonal stripes create a fun background, while the rich rust-colored frame and delicate fall-inspired print bring in those beautiful autumn tones. I love how the different layers frame the focal point and make all the little details stand out! The cream panel at the top features a darling fox postage-stamp image, complete with vintage-inspired postmark details. It adds a touch of old-fashioned charm and creates a lovely contrast with the busier patterns surrounding it. The real fun begins with the embellishments! I layered a vintage-style ticket, a sweet little bird nestled in a nest, pinecones, a butterfly, and colorful leaf accents along the bottom of the card. Each piece adds its own personality while working together to create a charming autumn scene. The word autumn anchors the design and brings all those warm fall elements together. I especially love mixing different shapes, patterns, and ephemera to create a collage-style focal point. The combination of playful illustrations and vintage-inspired details gives this card so much character! One of my favorite things about the Ginger Snap collection is how easily the papers and embellishments work together. You can mix and match the patterns, layer the die cuts, and experiment with different arrangements to create a card that feels uniquely yours. Fall is the perfect season to send a little extra love through the mail. Whether you’re creating a thank-you card, sending a note to a friend, or simply reminding someone that you’re thinking of them, a handmade card is a small gesture that can make someone’s day. So pull out those warm autumn papers, gather your favorite embellishments, and spend a little time creating something beautiful! Pretty Little Studio’s Ginger Snap collection makes it easy to celebrate the season with handmade cards full of warmth, charm, and personality. Happy fall crafting!
