Winter Happy Day Scrapbook Layout

28 December
Monday, 28 December 2009 20:20 Written by Megan Elizabeth 27 Comments

I had said that I wasn’t going to do a video before the new year – but I just couldn’t resist!  :)   I missed my scrap room too much! :)

YouTube Preview Image

I made this really sweet little page right in front of your eyes using:

  • Collage Press – Joyride Collection
  • Soda Bottle Caps
  • Zip Dry Paper Glue and the ATG
  • Ribbon
  • Prima Flowers layered with a bronze brad
  • Thickers from American Crafts (these are a really cool textured like vinyl, just awesome!)
  • …and that’s about it :)   A no Cricut Required scrapbook layout for some winter fun :)

Let me know what you think and comment away, can’t wait to show some more layouts in the near future :)

See you soon!

    I have got to get over my fear of pre-making layouts. I think it would save me time and be lots of fun! I just keep thinking, “BUT I MIGHT WANT AN EXTRA PHOTO (or ten) on there!” LOL!

    Rhonda, I SO know the feeling and i usually try to make the “pre-mades” very expandable – see by making the mattings 6×6, I can actually put two pictures cut down on each of the mattings, OR I can put one on each or two on one, etc….
    so if you can learn to think outside of the “boxes” that you make…it’s really a lot of fun and does save time.

    BUT I still love starting from my pictures and building my pages around them – that is my preference overall ;)

    Super cute layout! I have been itching to get out the scrap stuff and playing but decided to wait until the house has settled down some.
    First on the list is to watch my AtoZ dvd

    I agree I have a very hard time doing the premade but it makes sense to do the mat in 6X6. I’ve also found that now that I have my Cricut I tend to try to design my pages with that in mind. I forget that I’ve scrapped for 15 years without it!! LOL Cute layout.

    cute page, i have a question, since you taped on the ribbion to the back page, do you use the the other side or do you do another page and tape the two together? thank you.

    I agree with Rhonda H. I am trying to learn to premake layouts, but I really prefer to build around my pictures. Problem being, I need to develop more pictures… :) Love the ribbon idea, that will save alot of my Xyron tape!!! Happy New Year!!

    I almost always build my pages around my pictures, but I love your idea of the two 6×6 pieces. Very versatile and super CUTE!! I can just picture your DH’s face when he caught you scrapbooking with his hammer! lol.

    I have tried using the Zip Dry glue but have had major problems with the nozzle clogging up. Am I do something wrong?- I do replace the cap after use.

    Did you know you can flatten the pop bottle caps with a Sizzix or with a Spellbinder? I haven’t done it with the Spellbinder, but I did see it on Youtube, I have used the Sizzix though. Don’t know if it would work with a Cuttlebug.
