This week I created a brand new layout with one of their most adorable stickers – their Precious Moments Farm Animals stickers.

Materials Used: Patchwork CranApple Red Burlap paper, Sandylion Burlap paper, Paper Garden Speckle Plaid – Periwinkle paper, Colorbok Sue’s Blue Plaid paper, blue cardstock, cream cardstock, blue ink, red ink, a blue pen, blue alphabet stickers and Sandylion Precious Moments Farm Animals stickers.

This layout was fairly quick and easy to make. It’s charm lies in the combination of rich colours and the cute accents provided by my Sandylion stickers.

If you would like to try re-creating this layout, there are a couple of techniques you might like to include:

1.    I matted my stickers on cream cardstock. These particular Sandylion stickers have a clear background. By sticking them on cream cardstock and then cutting them out, I gave them a thin cream border. This helps them stand out from my page and adds a sense of warmth that really captures your attention and draws you in.

2.    If you look at the large squares that form most of the background, you will notice that they have white edges. To create this effect, I ran the edge of my scissors along each side. This strips some of the colour off your paper and gives it a white edge. It’s a great way to quickly add texture and interest to your scrapbooking layouts.

3.    When I placed the piece of blue and white plaid paper on my page, I felt it looked a bit flat. It was missing something. I didn’t really want to mat it, but I wanted to make it look more interesting. So, I inked the edges with blue ink to give and used a blue pen to draw in a border. This helps it stand out from my page and focus attention on the area where the photos are to go.

I hope you’ll give try these techniques on your own scrapbooking layouts. I use them all the time – especially matting my stickers. I always find that matting stickers makes them that little bit extra special. It draws attention to them and helps you set the scene for your all-important photos.

This gorgeous layout was created using some fun Christmas papers and cute Precious Moments Christmas stickers from Sandylion. It’s a very quick page to put together but has some unique touches to make it extra special.

Materials Used: Light green Bazzill cardstock (for the background), Imagination Project First Frost paper, Imagination Project Aluminium Trees paper, pink cardstock, blue Bazzill cardstock, pastel fibre, a purple pen, a purple ink pad, Doodlebug Alphabet stickers and Sandylion Precious Moments Christmas stickers.

Some of those extra special touches include:

1. I like to give distinction to the edges of my patterned papers. It gives my pages a sense of dimension. In this layout I have lightly inked the edges of both patterned papers with purple ink and then draw a dotted border with a purple pen.

2. I cut a decorative edge from blue Bazzill cardstock to add a sense of fun to my layout. Decorative edges can easily be created using a template, punches or decorative edge scissors.

3. I place a piece of fibre across my main photo to draw attention to is and add some texture to my page. I also accented it with a Candy Cane Christmas sticker.

4. Alphabet stickers were used to create an effective title quickly.

5. I cut my Santa Christmas sticker so that I could place the top half peering over the top of the photo. I then cut out the boots so they could stick out the bottom. It’s a really cute way to use Christmas stickers for that extra special touch on your layouts.

Christmas stickers are a great way to dress up your Christmas pages, especially if you have a lot of Christmas projects to complete. And, of course, they are also great for making Christmas cards, gift tags and gifts.

This layout was created using dark purple Bazzill cardstock, Sweetwater In Love paper, purple cardstock, light purple cardstock, white cardstock, a purple pen, dark purple alphabet stickers and Sandylion Precious Moments Graduation G stickers.

To recreate this scrapbook page idea, follow these steps:

1. Use the dark purple Bazzill cardstock as your background.

2. Cut five strips of Sweetwater In Love paper. They should measure:
 Strip 1 – 27.5cm by 4cm
 Strip 2 – 24cm by 4cm
 Strip 3 – 27cm by 4cm
 Strip 4 – 23.5cm by 4cm
 Strip 5 – 25.5cm by 4cm

3. Using a purple pen, draw a border around each strip, as shown above. Don’t worry about trying to make it too perfect. In this case, messy is good!

4. Glue Strip 1 horizontally across the bottom of your page. It should be approximately 1.5cm from the right edge and 1.8 cm from the bottom edge.

5. Glue Strip 5 horizontally across the top of your page. It should be approximately 1.5cm from the right edge (in line with Strip 1) and 1.8 cm from the top edge.

6. Glue Strip 3 horizontally across the middle of your page. It should be half way between the two strips you have already glued down and approximately 1.5cm from the right edge (in line with Strip 1).

7. Glue Strip 2 in the space between the middle strip and the bottom strip. The right edge should be approximately 1.5cm from the right edge of your page.

8. Glue Strip 4 in the space between the middle strip and the top strip. Again, the right edge should be approximately 1.5cm from the right edge of your page.

9. Mat two horizontal 4×6 photos with white cardstock and again with purple cardstock.

10. Glue one of your photos towards the bottom of your page approximately 4.5cm from the right edge and 4cm from the bottom edge.

11. Glue your other photo above the first photo approximately 5.5cm from the right edge and 4cm from the top edge.

12. Place a Precious Moments sticker in the bottom left corner of your page. I have chosen the sticker of the girl holding a bouquet of flowers. Place two small butterfly stickers on either side of her for decoration.

13. Place a flower sticker in the bottom right corner of your page.

14. Select the alphabet stickers you wish to use for your title. If you do not have stickers, you can cut them out from cardstock. When you have chosen your letters, mat each one with light purple cardstock. Arrange them in the space to the left of your top photo, as shown above. Highlight them by placing a small butterfly sticker above them and a large butterfly sticker just below them.

15. Place another Precious Moments sticker to the right of your top photo, as shown above. Trim away any of the sticker that goes past the edge of your page.

16. Finally, place a large butterfly sticker towards the top right corner of your page, as shown above.
