PARTY TIME SCRAPBOOK LAYOUT USING MULTIPLE PHOTOS | with Erica

Do you love a grid design on scrapbook layouts? I find this design fun and easy to use when creating a layout. There are so many possibilities with grid designs. If you are ever stuck on where to start creating a grid design is my go to! You can use any shape, size and it is great for adding 2 or more photos.

I am using the new Party Time collection for this layout and I started with the Big Celebration 12x12 paper. I trimmed it down just a little so I could mat it on the Hats Off paper! I wanted to add some texture to my layout so I distressed the edge of the Big Celebration paper with the edge of my scissors and then ran the paper through my sewing machine to add a border of stitching around the page.

I pulled out the; Party Time 6x6 paper pad and found some fun colors to use for my grid mats. I found 5 pieces of pattern paper and trimmed them down to a 3x4 size. I also distress the edges and ran them through my sewing machine. I printed 4 photos of our youngest son Liam on his 1st Birthday! He was not the happiest little guy on this day. He was super tried so in a lot of his photos he is crying.

I matted the photos with pattern paper from the; Party Time 6x6 paper pad. I used papers that were white with colored patterns on them. I also layered them up a little wonky and not straight just for some added fun to the layout. For my 6th block I used one of the cut aparts from the Surprise; 12x12 paper.

I used Party Time odds&ends;, mini icon stickers, doodle pops and sprinkles to embellish around each block on my grid. For my title I used the; Doodlebug Design Skinny Alpha stickers. I love how the title came out and I think it fits perfectly with my photos! To finish off my layout I added journaling to one of the blocks. I typed it out on my We R Memory Keepers typewriter and cut it down into strips. I adhered down with some wet glue. Here is a look at my completed layout using the Party Time collection!

I would love to see what you can do with a grid design! I hope you found some inspiration here today! Thank you so much for spending some time with me! I hope you have a wonderful day!
