Creative Team Reveal for Craftin' Around the World Challenge Blog

Welcome back for my second reveal for July for Craftin' Round the World Blog Challenge. As a reminder, each month we offer a sketch and a Tic-Tac-Toe challenge, where you can choose a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal line of prompts to inspire your creations. Playing along is easy—simply select your line, incorporate the elements into your design, and share your masterpiece with us.

I’m excited to reveal my layout for the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge. I chose the first vertical line, which includes layers, die-cuts, and patterned paper. This was a breeze for me, as I have a massive stockpile of patterned papers just waiting to be used. Layering them up is one of my favourite techniques, and it creates such depth and interest in a layout.

When it came to die-cuts, I had a blast rifling through my extensive collection of metal dies. I found a cute little cruise ship and a suitcase that were perfect for my theme—our family cruise from earlier this year. The Fancy Pants World patterned paper I used matched perfectly, enhancing the travel vibe of my layout.

Here are a few design tips for scrapbooking travel memories:

Use Patterned Papers: Choose papers that reflect the essence of your trip—think about colours and themes that represent your destination.

Layering: Don’t be afraid to layer different patterns and textures. This will not only add dimension but also keep your layout visually engaging.

Die-Cuts: They’re incredibly versatile. Use them as focal points, borders, or even journaling spots. They can help tell your story without overwhelming the design.

Remember, scrapbooking is all about having fun and expressing your memories, so let your creativity shine. I can’t wait to see what you all come up with for this month’s challenges.
