I’m pretty sure that this layout sets a record for most photos I’ve EVER used on a single 12x12 page! I love that I was able to set up a basic 2x2 inch square grid design on my layout, and in doing so, capture 25 favorite memories & photos on this “year-at-a-glance” type page. I’ve also created cute little custom accents using the new scallop stamps and scallop seal of approval squeeze punches – along with the NEW scallop twist and flip corner punch. This page is an easy one to replicate, and makes a great cover for any scrapbook.

Instructions
(Print version)
1. Find 25 photos you’d like to use. Either crop in photo-editing software to 2x2 as I did, and have printed (I set up two 2x2’s on a standard 4x6 print) or cut down larger prints to 2x2.
2. Select coordinating patterned papers – I used papers from Heidi Grace Designs Reagan’s Closet, and Cloud 9 Design Finley’s Estate. Trim some to 2x2 and two to 4x2.
3. Arrange photo squares and patterned paper squares on 12x12 base, according to sketch directions, and adhere.
4. Create Scallop Punch Stamped Accents: Use “Wishes all around” stamps and stamp image onto patterned paper, punch image out using coordinating size of seal of approval squeeze punch. Adhere to accent blocks using foam adhesive.
5. Create Scallop Corner Accent: Trim 1.75x1.75 inch square of paper. Use larger part of scallop corner punch to punch each corner of square. Adhere to page with foam adhesive. Top with punched L Round N Round circle punch and punchboard heart.
6. Accent page with various punchboard hearts, title stickers and rubons, and journaling strips.
