Hello Farm Life Scrapbooking Layout and Free Cut File

Hi everyone.  Heather Leopard is here to kick off our Geometric Shapes theme this week here on the blog. Luckily for me, shapes are my most favorite to work with when creating a scrapbooking layout. I almost always use geometry to create fun backgrounds for my layouts. Inspiration for these types of layouts can be found everywhere, from quilts to art posters to this project right here.

It’s been blazing hot here in Texas so I thought I’d attempt to cool it down a bit by creating a fall layout using the new Warm & Cozy collection.

Hello Farmlife Geometric Shapes Scrapbooking Layout and Free Cut File by Heather LeopardLet me walk you through my creative process for this scrapbooking layout.

  • Choose a light colored background paper. I chose the white Cozy Comfort one that resembles a sweater.
  • Cut three 2.4″ x 12″ strips of similar pattern papers. I chose the Tweed paper with text.
  • Stitch the strips to the background creating evenly spaced columns.
  • Download my free Silhouette cut file. If you don’t have a machine to cut these, simply cut large triangles / diamonds and octagons or circles.
  • Alternate the diamond and octagon shapes so that the top and bottom of your layout always includes a half shape and the inner part of your layout includes full shapes. Adhere with a small amount of adhesive.
  • Once all shapes are in place stitch down the middle of the columns / shapes.
  • Next, I added layers of pattern paper behind my photo, tucking in embellishments here and there.
  • Lastly, I finished it off with a title above my photo and a sentiment at the bottom in one of the embellishment clusters.
  • To complete the layout, I will journal in the open white space just under the photo.
