A Scrapbook layout with Joyful Squares

A Scrapbook layout with Joyful Squares. If you get stuck, I encourage you to take inspiration from the catalogue. There are so many ideas you can either copy or tweak. I’ve omitted putting any wording on my scrapbook layout as I haven’t got the photos sorted yet, but will add wording and a title as appropriate at a later date.

Something I missed are the Square Snippets 12″x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Paper on page 55 of the January-April 2026 mini. It’s on my list but will wait until I have enough on my list to take advantage of Bonus Days.

3. Cut 9 square of Designer Series Paper with different patterns measuring 3″x 3″ (7.6 x 7.6 cm). In this sample I used the True Blue Floras 12″x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) papers which were December’s product of the month.
