A Quick and Easy Summer Story with Junell

Happy summer, friends! It’s Junell on the blog today, and if you’re anything like me, my scrapbooking slows down quite a bit in the summer months because of all the busyness with kids and vacations and cookouts! I wanted to show you that you can still get a layout created quickly in just 15-20 minutes to scratch that creative itch this time of year! 

Supplies | June 2022 Kit, Summer Cardstock Stickers, Cool Puffy Heart and Star Stickers

I only used three supplies from the June kit and add-ons to create this travelers notebook spread! Limiting your supplies helps save you time, but can still pack a punch! I started by choosing the tags from the June 2022 Kit that I loved and turned them sideways on my page. That left me with a thin white border and not having to spend time trimming them! 

I then used the Print to Size app to print my pictures at the exact size to fill the rest of the page up. This app makes that task so quick and easy if you print at home!

I selected another tag to lay on top of the foundation to add my journaling, which was literally one sentence! That’s another way to save time. Stories do not have to be paragraphs long! I rounded the corners to avoid having too many right angles and to soften the look a bit. 

Then came the fun part: adding embellishments! The June 2022 Kit has some great summery die cuts to use and the colors coordinate perfectly with the monthly kit tags! I also used the Summer Cardstock Stickers and Cool Puffy Heart and Star Stickers to jazz up my layout. I put them in a line flowing from the bottom left to the top right to draw your eye through the journaling and across the page. 

There’s also a visual triangle with the blue color in my sunglasses, the rainbow tag, and the heart on the right side that is very pleasing to the eye. 

It did not take me any more than 20 minute to create this spread and I just love it so much! It’s so fun and summery! I hope this inspires you to take a few minutes to create a quick and easy project of your own using the June 2022 Kit and the fun extras!
