Science Fair Scrapbook Layout

Hey Scrappy Friends!  I'm glad to be back today sharing another layout with you.  This layout is of our daughter's first time entering the school science fair.  We tried to pick a project where she could do 90% of the work, and then just needed help making the board.  It definitely showed when parents did the project instead.

I started with a sketch from Sketches in Thyme, but I found it through She's Crafty Mini Paper Pad class.  The class is LONG over, but I was determined to finish using the sketches.  This was sketch number 8, and I still have 7, 9 and ten to use up.  I will admit though I'm not sure you can see the sketch with my final layout.

For my paper I used the Well Read collection from Pretty Little Studio.  I felt like the papers gave off enough of a school vibe without being overly themed.  I used die cuts from the Book-Worm pack and paired it with some printable items from Traci Reed. The printable bulked up my clusters just enough.  

With some letter stickers for a title and some splatters in the corners I was content with calling this layout complete.  Can you tell which items are printable?  I think they blend in really nicely.  Until next time....stay scrappy!

Single Page Swim Themed Scrapbook Layout Using Printables

Hey Scrappy Friends! How have you all been? Things have been busy as ever over here in my neck of the woods—kids’ sports are definitely keeping us on our toes!

Today I’m excited to share a layout I created from our daughter’s 10 & Under Championship Swim Meet in 2024. She was so thrilled to place high enough to earn a medal—it was such a proud moment for all of us!

For this page, I used a sketch from Scrapbook Generation. I’m not sure whether it was one of their free sketches or a purchased one, so I won’t share it here just to be safe. If you have any tips for keeping track of which sketches are free vs. paid, I’d love to hear how you organize yours!

For my patterned papers, I mixed two collections: the swim-themed line from Simple Stories and the 50 M Freestyle printable collection by Traci Reed.

     Since I don’t have a large-format printer, I got creative and hid the seams of the printable papers behind photos—honestly, you’d never know they weren’t full 12x12 sheets! Mixing printables with traditional paper collections is a great way to stretch both kits even further.

One more tip: keep an eye on your child's team or activity Facebook pages. At swim meets, we’re often seated so far from the action that it's hard to get good photos. Most of the shots I used on this layout actually came from our team’s Facebook page!

Thanks so much for stopping by—I hope you enjoyed seeing how this page came together, along with the little tips sprinkled in. Until next time… stay scrappy!
