Yesterday I created a few pages (a one-page layout and a two-page layout) with the Everyday You & Me Scrapbooking Workshop Kit. I absolutely LOVE the colors and the elements. This kit was added to the Last Chance List on April 1st. So if you are in love with it as much as I am, you may want to grab one up (and maybe a container of the Industrial Trinkets, too) before they sell out.
Here is my one-page layout. The photos sit in the middle, so this works if you wanted to frame it an hang it on a wall. When else does it make sense to have a one-page layout?…It could become the first or last page in an album. But you could easily make a coordinating partner page with the other elements in the kit. I just ran out of time.
A Special Day
It has a beach feel to it because of that fabulous background paper that looks like watercolor wash on canvas. My big leaves are white because I flipped the green over. I felt it gave a more dramatic look than the darker green leaves. My flower (with a sticker in the middle) in the lower left is the only element on the page raised up on Dimensionals. Then the strips (two that are actually together on a sticker) are mounted onto a 1-3/8″ x 12″ strip of Pretty Peacock Two-Toned Cardstock (also from the kit).
Here is my two-page layout. I love to fit a lot of photos on my album pages, so these definitely will hold a lot of visual memories.
You & Me
It’s a title that implies photos of either love, friendship, or even a favorite pet. The colors are calming. And though there are small hearts and a bit of floral imagery, it’s subtle. The added Industrial Trinkets on the main title and on the left page imply strength and permanency.
Here is a slightly closer view.
I used sponged on glue to add the hearts and other laser-cut imagery and Glue Dots for my trinkets.
The strip of Pretty Peacock Two-Toned Cardstock on the left page measures 1-7/8″ x 5″. The strip of Pretty Peacock Two-Toned Cardstock on the right page under the main title sticker measures 1-7/8″ x 7″. I trimmed the corners to line up with the sticker shape. Then the strips (two that are actually together on a sticker) are mounted onto a 1″ x 12″ strip of Pretty Peacock Two-Toned Cardstock.
I absolutely love the deep contrast of darks and lights on these pages. And they are clean layouts that won’t detract from my photos when I add them. It’s a great kit! I highly recommend getting your hands on one before they sell out. Thanks for visiting. I hope you enjoyed what I shared today!

GARAGE SALE
Next year’s big annual paper crafting garage sale will take place June 17 & 18, 2026. Mark your calendars so you can attend and be a part of the fun!
Very pretty 😍. I think the colors also play well to the desert with the sand and endless blue skies. My mom lived in the Mojave Desert for several years and many of our pictures would look great on these backgrounds. Instead of a flower, a sea plant can be die cut in Crumb Cake to make a scrub plant!
Oh yes! I also lived in the Mojave Desert (for 4 years). I can totally see photos from that area working on these pages as well. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Debby.
You’re scrapbooks must be amazing! I used to do that in high school and college when we weren’t fancy like today. Just a place to keep my important memorabilia. Your boys are lucky to have these.
Thank you Tina.
