How to Create the Shiplap look on a Scrapbook Layout

I love to go to home decor magazines and shows for inspiration as I create my paper crafts.  Shiplap is EVERYWHERE and I just love the look.  As I was working on my Guest Designer work for Jillibean Soup, I was inspired by the Wordfetti to create a shiplap background.

As you can see, mission accomplished as the background for my picture!  

Here's a process video that takes you thru both that and the rest of the layout:

5 Birthday Scrapbook Layout Ideas for Boys

I have the privilege of being a guest designer for Jillibean Soup this month and they sent me Souper Celebration to create with.  I have always loved to do birthday layouts so it was right up my alley! Since I do so many birthday layouts I always am on the lookout for fresh ideas.  Today I thought I would share some boy birthday scrapbook layout ideas.

1) Create a unique title based on current trends.
First up is this teenage birthday boy layout for Jillibean Soup! For this one I shied away from too many themed elements, because he's a teenager!  I went with HB2U thinking that worked well for this texting/instagraming generation.  That was a really easy way to make it work for his age!

Here's the process video for this layout:

2) Get clever with icons!  
There are lots of ways to personalize a little boy layout but one of my favorite ways to is to add letters to different icon stickers.  In this layout those little monsters were perfect for adding the word "Dude" to.

3) Use birthday icons in multiples to embellish and add interest to your layout.
Imagine this layout without those balloons down the center.  It would be a much more boring and flat layout.  With them it helps draw the eye down from the title to the pictures and the various heights and colors add pops up excitement.

4) Let the pictures lead the way.
You can't look at this layout and not notice his ice cream covered face.  By combining banner pieces and a circle punch I was able to easily incorporate ice cream cones into my layout embellishments.

5) You can't go wrong with banners!
Banners are everywhere in the paper crafting industry.  But they make a whole lot of sense when you use them on birthday layouts and on this one I incorporated a whole line of them as well as one that makes a subtitle.

Stuck?! Sketches Design Team Member!

Hi there crafty friends!  I am excited to share that I have joined the team at Stuck?! Sketches and will be playing with Laura's fabulous sketches twice a month!  This is actually my first time on a sketch team and I am excited for the new challenge! Here's the first sketch I played with:
 Isn't it a fun one!?!  You can play along too on their site and get in on a prize!

I decided to dig into my Jillibean Soup for this creation.  I recently got to visit their warehouse sale and was all kinds of inspired and excited afterwards!  Plus they always have great boy options!  This one is mostly from Mushroom Medley!  The layout is the first one with a picture of my son with his brand new glasses!  Obviously and important moment to document and one he will remember forever!

I had made a process video but unintentionally deleted it, so for the first time in awhile I do not have a process video to go along with a layout!  That said, I've got lots of new ones in the works so don't wander too far from this blog ;)
