Hello Pretty Little Studio friends! I'm so happy to be back sharing another layout using the bright and cheerful Good Vibrations collection!
This page documents a fun afternoon spent with my daughter, Hailey, exploring all of the shops at Disney Springs. We wandered through some of our favorite stores, stopped to browse all the fun displays, snapped lots of photos and enjoyed having nowhere we needed to be. Those unhurried afternoons together have become some of my favorite memories. It's days like these that remind me the best memories aren't always the big adventures—they're often the simple moments spent together.
For this layout, I wanted to create a design that felt just as fun and energetic as our afternoon. I started with the bold black-and-white Currently single-sided patterned paper, which provides the perfect contrast for all of the colorful elements in the collection. I then added a wide strip of the Good Stuff double-sided patterned paper across the top of the page. I love the playful rainbow pattern that looks like it was drawn with crayons -- it immediately sets a happy tone. To tie everything together, I included a one-inch strip of Happiness, another crayon-inspired patterned paper, to bring in one more pop of color.
I chose to feature five photos from our afternoon, each printed with a white border to help them stand out against the colorful patterns. Grouping the photos together across the center of the page allowed me to capture several moments from our shopping adventure while creating a strong focal point for the layout.
The title, "The Best," from the Seize the Day Die Cuts pack was the perfect sentiment for this memory. I paired it with a "right now" phrase to create a title that perfectly captures this season of life. Around the photos, I layered pieces from the Picture Day Frame Die Cuts, Hey There Label Die Cuts, Positive Vibes Cut-Apart Flags and Everyday Life Word Stickers to add fun sentiments and playful details throughout the page.
To finish the layout, I tucked individual flowers from the Wildflower Die Cuts behind several of the photos to add soft pops of color and create a sense of depth without overwhelming the design. I also scattered stars from the Seize the Day Die Cuts pack throughout the layout, helping move your eye across the page while adding a playful finishing touch.
Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope this layout inspires you to document those everyday adventures that might seem ordinary in the moment but become some of your favorite memories. Sometimes an afternoon spent shopping, laughing and simply being together really is the best right now.
Happy scrapping!
