Easy Summer Scrapbook Layout | From the SWN Vault
Blend & Bloom Scrapbook Layout (Originally Published January 2019)
Welcome to the Summer Spotlight featuring timeless projects from the SWN Vault! Since I'm teaching every day this month, I thought I would share some of my favorite Summer themed scrapbook projects from years past that are just as inspiring today as when I first shared them. Every Wednesday this summer I'm opening the SWN Vault to revisit one of my favorite scrapbook layouts and share it with a whole new generation of scrapbookers.
Today's featured layout was originally published in January 2019—which might seem like an unusual time to be sharing a bright, summery scrapbook page!
Back then, I was showcasing the beautiful Blend & Bloom collection from Creative Memories, but what I really loved wasn't just the papers—it was the versatility of the sketch itself.
One of the best things about my 1-2-3 Scrapbook Formula is that the sketches are designed to work with almost any collection. Swap the papers, photos and journaling and you'll end up with a completely different layout while following exactly the same design.
That's one of the reasons I wanted to bring this project back from the Vault. Rather than hunting down retired products, I encourage you to shop your own stash and ask yourself: "What current papers would create the same bright, cheerful feeling?" You might choose tropical florals, colorful basics, lake or outdoor themes, or a current summer collection.
Whatever you choose to use to create the layout, the sketch stays the same and your photos and story makes it unique, fresh and new.
