Season of Happiness Scrapbook Layout

Hi, Erica here today! I am so excited to share my first project for the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L design team member! Today I have a Season of Happiness Scrapbook Layout to share with you.

Working on the Cut File for the Season of Happiness Scrapbook Layout

I started by backing the cut file with 6×6 holiday-themed patterned papers. This process does take some time but the result is so worth it! It’s great that I can showcase so many different colors and patterns on one layout. To adhere the patterned papers to the cut file, I used the Dual Tip Glue Pen.

Once covered, I added the Crafty Foam Tape White 108ft all over its back. This gives it some height and pops up off the layout. The Crafty Foam Tape White 108ft is my favorite foam tape to use with cut files because it is the perfect thickness to give just a little bit of dimension to my layouts.

Create the Layout Base

Next, I trim down a piece of white textured cardstock to 11.50×11.50 and use the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser to adhere it to one of the 12×12 patterned papers.

Mat my photo onto some pink polka dot patterned papers using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Then apply the 3D Foam Creative Sheets Medium White on the back of a piece of red patterned paper. I love to cut these up (they come in 6×12 sheets) to pop up my photos. I can cut the perfect size for my 4×4 photo and it covers the entire back of the photo.

Adding the Finishing Touches

Creating layered embellishment clusters with die cuts and stickers and Crafty Foam Tape White 108ft. I double up the foam adhesive behind the reindeer to start the cluster to the right of my photo. I can tuck other embellishments behind this die cut to help create a fun and dimensional cluster. To finish off the layout, I add some enamel dots.
