Add depth to your scrapbook pages by using foam tape, chipboard, or layered embellishments. This creates a 3D effect and makes your layout more dynamic.

Group ephemera and add foam strips for height behind the pieces. Layer with stickers and top with sequins. Add a cut file, paint splashes and more.

Use a Colour Palette

Choose a consistent colour scheme to tie your page together. Pull colours from your photos for a cohesive and polished look. Choose one colour for a monochromatic scheme or match your embellishments to your papers.

Mix Textures

Don’t forget to add personal stories or details. Whether handwritten or printed, journaling brings life to your photos by capturing memories in words. This is what you will love when you look back on your layouts.

Repurpose Materials
