The new Color Me Crafty collection is so gorgeous and fun for documenting this hobby we all love! I recently got Chat GPT to create a fun photo of me crafting away at my desk! This page celebrates all things creative with bold color, playful details, and a whole lot of personality.
I used an 'I Love Scrapbooking' cut file (linked below) and cut it from white cardstock. I backed all of the open spaces from the various patterned papers in the 6 x 8 paper pad, from rainbows and florals to soft pastels and playful prints—creating a patchwork effect that perfectly reflects the fun and variety of crafting. I trimmed down another sheet of white cardstock and adhered it to the Rows of Ribbons patterned paper. I also took 2 of the scalloped border strip stickers from the This and That sticker sheet, placing 1 at the top and 1 at the bottom of the layout.

The mix of patterns brings the whole composition to life while still keeping everything cohesive thanks to the collection’s signature color palette.
The tiny banner at the top spelling 'Crafty' adds a playful finishing touch and ties in perfectly with the theme.
On the right side, the photo becomes part of the story—a vibrant, illustrated image of a crafter surrounded by tools and supplies. The colors and details in the photo blend seamlessly with the Color Me Crafty collection, making it feel like a natural extension of the layout.
Layered embellishments around the photo—including tabs, labels, and icons—help build a visual cluster without overwhelming the design.

This design shines because it balances boldness with structure:
- The large title anchors the layout
- The rainbow borders frame the design without overpowering it
- The embellishments are playful but thoughtfully placed
- The color palette stays consistent while still feeling energetic
This scrapbook page is a joyful tribute to the love of crafting. The Color Me Crafty collection makes it easy to combine bright colors, whimsical icons, and meaningful sentiments into a layout that truly celebrates creativity.
If you’ve ever wanted to document your passion for scrapbooking (or crafting in general), let this page inspire you—go big with your title, mix those patterns, and most importantly… make time to create!
