Scrapbooking Ideas With Circles
Tags: Scrapbooking Ideas
Scrapbooking ideas with circles are playful and a lot of fun. I love the fluidity you can create with circles without disrupting the balance (you all know I LOVE balance!). In this page I have used circles and stickers to create an ‘Under The Sea’ feel to my page. My photo was taken at Tokyo Disney Sea, but this idea is easily adaptable to any beach or even bath time photos. What do you think?
Also, just as an aside, I really do adore the Little Mermaid Glitter stickers I have used. Glitter is wonderful but I am sometimes frustrated by the mess it makes when specks of it fall off the sticker. That doesn’t happen with these Sandylion stickers as the glitter is sealed within the sticker so you get all the sparkle without the mess.
This layout was created using Karen Foster Light Green Droplets paper, Paper Adventures Starfish paper, Pebbles Inc Winter Circle paper, orange Bazzill cardstock, white cardstock, purple alphabet stickers, Doodlebug Designs Pastel Party Alphabet stickers, Doodlebug Designs Bright Party Alphabet stickers and Sandylion Little Mermaid Glitter stickers.
To recreate this scrapbook page idea, follow these steps:
1. Use Karen Foster Light Green Droplets paper as your background.
2. Cut a piece of Paper Adventures Starfish paper measuring approximately 23cm by 27cm. Glue vertically to your layout centred and along the bottom.
3. Cut out a collection of blue circles from Pebbles Inc Winter Circle paper. If you do not have this paper, you can make your own with two shades of blue cardstock. Glue the largest circle in the top right corner of your page, as shown in the layout above.
4. Place one of the smaller Little Mermaid stickers near the edge of the circle, as shown in the layout above.
5. Mat a 5×7 photo with orange Bazzill cardstock. Glue to your layout so that it is centred horizontally and approximately 6cm from the top edge of the page.
6. Glue your remaining circles around the page to surround your photo, as shown in the layout above.
7. Place a Little Mermaid sticker so it overlaps the top left corner of your photo, and another so it overlaps the bottom right corner of your photo. Also, place two shells in the top right corner of the photo.
8. Place one of the smaller Little Mermaid stickers in the bottom left corner, as shown above.
9. Decide on your title. Use Doodlebug Designs Party alphabet stickers to select a sticker for the first letter of each word. (I have used Doodlebug Designs Pastel Party Alphabet stickers for the ‘m’ and Doodlebug Designs Bright Party Alphabet stickers for the ‘L’). Use purple alphabet stickers (or letters cut from purple cardstock) for the rest of the letters. Mat these with white cardstock so they stand out from your background. Arrange your title under your photo, as shown in the layout above. The first letter of the second word should cover some of your mermaid sticker in the bottom left corner.
10. Finally, place some of the smaller stickers around your page for extra decoration.
