Good Life | Heart & Home Collection | Laura Alberts

Hey y’all! Laura Alberts back again with a sweet shelf design to scrap these photos of a curious little squirrel that I saw fairly often while wandering the campus in college last year. It was a mascot of sorts for one of the English buildings and I looked for him every time I walked past. For this layout, I used the stunning new Heart & Home collection and went wild with fussy cutting!

Using the diagonal stripe from the cut apart sheet as a base and adding a branding strip on top, I created two shelves for my photos and title to sit on. Starting from this base, I built up clusters of fussy cut florals from both the patterned paper and vellum, as well as sticker sheet and ephemera icons. I even fussy cut the tiny little flowers to use as scattering bits around my clusters.

On the right side, I added a label for journaling and an adorable little house. On the bottom, I used the line for a large title from the gold foiled titles pack. The falling florals and leaves seemed fitting for photos from autumn here in the United States. I adore these sweet little moments with nature!

I hope this layout inspires you to take photos of unexpected moments or animals that you encounter and record those too! You never know what these memories will mean to you in the future. To see how “Good Life” came together, check out the process video below:
