Scrapbooking | Pedal to the Metal Toddler Scrapbook Layout Idea

Today's scrapbook layout is a quick and easy one which is great for beginners or for those who just enjoy quick & easy layouts. This scrapbooking layout was done in the 12x12 format and took less than 30 minutes to make and cost about $1.25 to make it.

The background is a printed sheet of scrapbook paper done in primary colors. We had one photo that we cropped down slightly and matted it onto yellow and blue cardstock leaving an 1/8" border on each mat. We took a cardstock preprinted block that says Dream A Little Dream on it and matted that onto yellow and blue cardstock. We then attached it to the right of our photo using foam dots to give it some dimension. We accented the block with a little yellow plastic clothes pin at the top that we simply just clipped onto the block.

The title block for the page measures about 3" by 7" in length and is made up of light blue, medium blue, yellow and dark blue scrapbooking papers layered together. We used letter stickers to make our title "Pedal To The Metal" and placed them onto the title block. Accenting the title block is a small square shaped brad that has a star on it. Journaling for the page was done in handwriting on the backside (yes...you can journal on the backsides of your layouts).

I like my daughter's layout but if it would of been my layout I would of sized-up on the letters on the title block to make them more visible.
