This stunning travel layout from Karola is so pretty she framed it. Overtop of the map pattern paper are layer upon layer of beautiful embellishments, the photo is offset so it draws the eye to one side and it still stands out from all the accents. Notice how she also tucked in lots of sentiments too which also move the eye around the design. I spotted this on the Mintay Papers Instagram page.

Jessica used a wonderful mix of items for all her layers on this cute Disney design. There’s items like die cut film strips, distressed pattern paper, gathered ribbon, printed tickets, felt embellishments and sewn on tabs. Take a closer peek at the Kerri Bradford blog.

An easy way to begin layering is with simple shapes like Jinny did with circles on this darling page. The photos are cut into circle with round pattern paper mattes behind them. There’s also a background layer with watercolor, stamps and splatter and tons of embellishments layered over the entire design. She breaks it all down at the My Creative Scrapbook blog.

Valeska’s layered layout has several types of elements from rub-ons, chipboard, printed die cuts and acetate all layered up for a pretty bouquet of flowers and butterflies.
