Scrapbooking Layout Ideas – Old Style Page With Keepsakes

old style scrapbook page layout

This scrapbooking page is probably better suited to the older generation or for those that are trying to create scrapbooking layout ideas to use for a family tree.

The reason for this is because a black and white old style photo has been used. When creating older style or vintage scrapbooking layout ideas I would recommend using rustic and old looking colors such as burnt orange, ranges of red and of course browns to give your page a weathered, aged look.

Scrapbooking Page Ideas – Little Bunny

scrapbook page layout with swirls

This is one of my favorite scrapbooking page ideas and is quite simple to put together. I think it has a natural and mystical feel to it.

This particular scrapbooking page idea has been created using two sheets of scrapbook paper. The maroon color card is a Brazil piece of 12 x 12 card stock, which if you do not have in your srcapbooking supplies you can buy from most craft shops or online.

Scrapbooking Layout Ideas – Birds In A Tree

birds in a tree scrapbooking page

The main focus for this scrapbooking page idea is birds. The photos are of birds sitting on rocks in the countryside so the bird theme has been carried on through the scrapbook page layout.

As you can see the shape of the tree has been cut from brown and green paper. It is important to attach the green part first and then place the trunk on the top in order for the branches to remain visible. The tree has been drawn free hand as it is a fairly easy shape to draw and you may struggle to find a tree big enough to stand out on a 12 x 12 sheet of scrapbooking paper.

The trunk has been drawn and cut from Brazil card stock as this type of card has a texture that looks like wood so works very well for the tree branches.

Scrapbooking Layout Ideas – Intermediate Page

scrapbooking page

When you are searching for new scrapbooking layout ideas and you feel like creating something a little more advanced here is a page layout for intermediate scrapbook enthusiasts.

This scrapbooking page layout was quite difficult and time consuming to create, however like most aspects of scrapbooking the more time and effort you put in the more detailed and elaborate your scrapbooking layout ideas will be.

This page has actually been created using three sheets of 12 x 12 scrapbook paper.

I began this scrapbooking idea with the back ground sheet of paper which is pale blue and used this as the base for my design. I then used a piece of beige 12 x 12 scrapbooking paper and cut it into strips to form the trellis style effect on the page. I took care not to stick all of the strips of paper down as I had already decided that I would slide the photos through the strips and use them to hold the photos in place.

It is always a good idea when creating scrapbooking layout ideas to put your design together and decide where each piece will go before permanently attaching with glue or double sided tape. By doing this you can ensure you are happy with how the page layout will look when it is has been completed.

Scrapbooking Layout Ideas – Old Style Papers

pick and black scrapbooking page layout

Some of the best scrapbooking layout ideas are extremely intricate with a lot of detail, and at the heart of the page is your photo.  If you are creating an album I would personally place this next to a simple page layout so that it does not clash and end up being too much for the senses.

Because the scrapbook paper has a lot of pattern on it I decided to stick with three colors, black white and pink. The pink on the page matches the black and white photo perfectly and really sets the mood.
