Baa Baa Black Sheep Scrapbook Layout

This scrapbook page has been created using many different papers that you will probably already have in your scrapbook supplies. The theme is of a field with sheep so different shades of green have been used to give the effect of mountains. The scrapbook paper has been torn before over lapping it on top of another sheet.

Jet black ink has been used to make the edges of the paper stand out. You can easily create this effect by brushing your inkpad over the torn edges of the paper. You can also use pencils, ink pens or even tea bags to dye the edges of the paper.

A broken lolly stick has been used to create the sign. This is not only a great embellishment to your scrapbook layout with little cost. It is also quite relevant as the picture was taken on holiday and things such as ice creams and lollys are traditionally associated with holidays.

The wording on the lolly stick has been hand written and is the name of the place where the picture was taken. You could also use scrapbook quotes, peel off stickers or rub ons for the wording.

scrapbook quotes

These words are chipboard letters. They were already covered and the color just happened to match the theme of the page on this occasion but you can change the color easily by embossing, painting or coloring with pens. They have been attached to the scrapbook page using a strong double sided tape.

The photo has been mat and layered onto a light green piece of card. Because this scrapbook layout is quite busy the photo is kept simple so that it does not get lost in the scrapbook page embellishments.

You can of course add any scrapbook quotes and journaling if you desire to provide information and a note of the occasion.
