Brynn Marie says, “One thing that I always need but never seem to have are gift tags. A quick and easy substitute I’ve found are Project Life cards. With the popularity of pocket scrapbooking you can find a card in almost any theme and color combination to add a cute and totally unique finishing touch to your gifts!”

Crystal used  Together Like {Cards and Words} by Sara Gleason to catch up on some pocket scrapbooking.

Crystal says, “I am completely overwhelmed at the idea of going back and doing past years in pocket style so I love finding ways to add in some past snapshots in a cohesive way. I used Sara’s Together Like cards as cute little quotes and titles so I don’t even need to add journaling to these to pages that will be placed in my current album as a special Valentine’s/ February Spread. The quotes on the journal cards perfectly describe what the photos are and stand for. I kept my photos and elements neutral to make sure it was cohesive with the rest of my album.”

Aaron used Sea Of Love Elements and Sea of Love Papers by Pink Reptile Designs to create a stunning layout.

Aaron says, “When putting together this layout, I wanted the photo to be the star, so I kept all of the surrounding papers and elements neutral, and then the papers and elements that are in direct contact with the photo are bright and colorful. By doing this, they eye is drawn directly to the photo almost automatically.”

Trista used the Ambrosia Album Templates by Sara Gleason to create this fun photoless layout, which also uses I’m So Fancy by Mommyish.

I’m a creative who pulls inspiration from all corners of life—both the joyful highs and the real-life moments that punch you in the gut. Honestly, I don’t think I can pin down a single scrapbooking style for myself, so let’s just go with eclectic. My layouts really depend on my mindset. If I’m in a deep, cerebral mood, you’ll likely see something chaotic and messy. If I’m more relaxed, it tends to come out clean, simple, and structured.

My brain is usually running on several channels at once, so it’s completely normal for me to be working on a digital layout, dabbling in a hybrid project, and getting messy with art journaling or mixed media—all at the same time.

Here are a few of my go-to tools: Digital: Adobe Photoshop CC + my MacBook; Photos: Canon Rebel or iPhone; Hybrid: Cricut Joy + sewing machine; Art Journaling: watercolors, stencils, and artsticks

And when it comes to embellishments—digital or physical—I’m always reaching for messy threads, ribbons, and Polaroids. Always the Polaroids.
