Inspiration du Jour – jenncupp

This darling Easter layout from Brianna has pretty stitched on floral pattern paper borders and two rows of photos with the die cut sentiment in the center that’s backed with more pattern paper. Notice how she alternated photos and embellishment squares for added color and dimension. Learn more at the Bella Blvd. blog.

I know Easter is over for this year, and I hope you had a wonderful time with friends and family, but us scrapbookers are sometimes behind the game waiting to scrap our layouts after a holiday and after we’ve snapped all our pictures. So here’s one last post to get you inspired, so print those photos, grab your supplies and let’s get those Easter scrapbook layouts finished (or at least started)!

Below each photo you’ll see a link, click it for all the details including tips, techniques and products used.

How fun is this “Love My Peep” title is with all the Peeps shaped dies on this page from Erica! She backed each Peep with different pattern paper for a very dynamic and colorful design. Notice how she used colors of coordinating cardstock to back the photos, it helps them stand out. Find a link to her Youtube process video at the Doodlebug blog.

If you created crafts for Easter why not scrapbook about them? This digital layout features photos of hand stamped Easter Bunny cards on a mixed media background with paint splatter, fish tail pattern papers, typed journaling, doilies and flowers. I spotted this in Cinna71’s gallery at Scrapbook.com.

The focal point of this beautiful Easter layout from Monique is the large egg die. She cut the base from white cardstock, backed it with a rainbow of pattern papers and stitched along the white areas for a stunning design. Clusters of flora and fauna are around the edges as well as photos. Notice how the black and white photos stand out from all the bold colors and patterns. Find all the info on the Paige Taylor Evans blog.

This darling page from Kylie has a row of photos tucked behind a beautiful row of a fence, grass and flowers created with border punches. She also made a fun set of bunny ear to go along with the photos by cutting heart shapes in half. She breaks it all down over at the Paper Sweetpea blog.

Kat fussy cut lots of bunnies from pattern paper to create a cute background for this darling design. There’s a puny title and fabric rabbit head embellishments and a fabric strip that give great texture and dimension too. I spotted this at the Color Rush Studio Instagram page.

Jinny designed a beautiful Spring floral wreath for her Easter baby layout. Some of the flowers and animals are popped up with foam tape for dimension. She also added a lot of stitching and cheese cloth for texture with some sentiments scattered around too. Find all the details at the Pretty Little Studio blog.

This fun family Easter page has lots of layers with a stenciled background, layers of distressed pattern papers, a banner, tag and thick acrylic title. Heather also tucked lots of cute little bunnies here and there too. Hop on over to the Bramble Fox blog for a closer peek.

Traci used a cut file from Lori Whitlock to make this darling Easter Bunny. He’s got a crown of flowers, is holding Easter eggs with two big carrots behind him too. The colorful striped pattern paper is echoed in the title and she’s included places for two photos and a space for journaling as well. Find all the details at the Artsy Albums blog.

Jana used products from Simple Stories for her cute double page Easter layouts. There’s lots of sweet baby animal scenes, piles of eggs, plaid paper, loads of sewing, a wide border and still room for not only 7 photos but journaling too! She shares how she put it all together at the Jana Eubank blog.

This adorable Easter design has a row of eggs across the center and photo mats and paper edges with pretty lacey designs. A border punch was used to create the pattern cut from pattern papers and cardstocks. Learn how to use a border punch like this in a video at the Creative Memories blog.

Here’s another style of wreath, this time with a die cut of rabbits in a circle, cut from white cardstock and backed with lots of pretty pattern papers. Ali placed her sweet photo in the center with a few floral embellishments and added a thick acrylic title in baby blue too. I came across her layout at her Ali Skifton gallery at Scrapbook.com.

I hope you had a fantastic Easter and are now inspired to get those layouts created!
