Paper Rose Studio | Strawberry Friends Collection | Scrapbook Pages

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Crafty Friends,

Toady I am sharing my 2nd project for February created with the lovely Strawberry Friends Collection by Paper Rose Studio.

Have you ever looked through your old handmade cards & think “this would really make a cute scrapbook page?” You could even create your cards from scrapbook layouts too.

Well, this is how my pages started.

I wanted to create quick and easy 6×8 scrapbook layouts, but I didn’t want to overthink the designs or pull out tons of supplies. So instead of searching for complicated sketches, I did something way simpler…

I raided my old card photos for inspiration.

Supplies

Page 1

The Pattern Paper squares are 2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″.  To add more interest, I randomly drew lines around each square with a Black Fine Liner Pen.  They were adhere to Basic White Smooth Cardstock measuring 6″ x 8″.  This page will hold a cute little 2″ x 2 ” photo but you could easily add a larger photo if you wish.  The Pink Lemonade Shimmer Cardstock photo mat  measures 2 1/4″ x 2 1/4″.

Page 2

Again, Paper Pattern squares were added to a 6″ x 8″ Basic White Smooth Cardstock page but this time the Pink Lemonade Shimmer Cardstock photo mat has been added a little off centre to the left side.  It will again hold a cute little 2″ x 2″ photo.

The Embellishment are Pearls & were coloured with a green Alcohol Marker.

The sentiment strips are from the Rainbow Poppies A5 Sentiment Sheets.  I love these sheets as they are perfect for both cards & scrapbook pages.

I will confess ….. case’ing old card layouts made this feel way less overwhelming as I didn’t overthink it, no complicated sketch layouts AND I’ve used scraps to ceate the pages.  In fact, these pages come together so fast.  They are simple but sometimes simple is all we need.

Next time you want to create a scrapbook page, don’t forget to flip through your old cards and pick one you love, asking yourself – Where would my photo/s go?  Where would the title sit?  Do I need a title?  What can I use for embellishments?  Then, all that is left is to rebuild it but this time a little bigger!

Until next time – stay inspired & keep creating!

Candy Kisses | 6 x 8 Photo Album | Paper Rose Studio | Design Team Project

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Friends,

My share today is full of love & interactive fun!

Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to document love, laughter and sweet memories.  This 6 x 8 interactive photo album does just that!  For this Design Team project, I created a Valentine-themed photo album using the Candy Kisses Basics 12 x 12 Paper Collection, filled with soft colours, playful patterns and lots of love-inspired details.

This album is designed to hold your favorite Valentine photos, handwritten notes and special keepsakes, making it a meaningful project you’ll enjoy creating and flipping through year after year.  In fact, it can be used for any occasion, not just Valentine’s!

About the Album

The album measures 6 x 8 inches and features a mix of interactive pages and pocket pages for added interest.  The Candy Kisses Basics 12 x 12 Collection was perfect for this project, with its sweet colours, florals and romantic sentiments that work beautifully for Valentine’s Day and love-themed memories.

Inside the album, you’ll find:

  • Flip-up and fold-out interactive pages
  • Pocket pages for photos, tags, and journaling cards
  • Plenty of space for 5 x 7, 4 x 6  and 3 x 4 photos
  • Layered details that add texture without too much bulk

This style of album is great for beginners and experienced crafters alike and it’s easy to customize with your own photos and embellishments.

Why I Love This Project

What I love most about this album is how interactive it is.  The pockets allow you to tuck in notes, love letters or small memorabilia, while the interactive elements make each page feel like a little surprise.  It’s a fun way to showcase the Candy Kisses Collection and create something truly special for Valentine’s Day.

Supplies Used – Paper Rose Studio

Final Thoughts

This Candy Kisses Valentine 6 x 8 album was such a joy to create, and I love how the interactive pages and pocket elements bring the album to life. It’s a wonderful way to celebrate love and preserve sweet moments in a handmade keepsake.

Until next time – stay inspired & keep creating!
