Look at how simple this page layout is with all the patterned paper boxes. Go to the Matchmaker section of this website and find the cardstock matches for your favorite paper designs. We make it easy to figure out which Bazzill cardstock matches! With just a little red and green and a few squares, this [...]

It’s the simple things…

The spray of flowers on the right side of the page is easy to recreate on any layout. Pre-punch holes along the side of the photograph where the flowers will be positioned. Make sure the flowers will cover the border of the photo and then attach with 10mm brads like the Bling Brads shown here.

Give Thanks

Bazzill’s Glazed Cardstock makes a beautiful background and stunning die-cuts. There is no arguing. This layout is a mix of serious, beauty and a little whimsy that is the perfect mix. Adding the Bazzill Pom Poms across the top of the page is the perfect way to accent this layout.

Family
Posted on 16. Nov, 2009 by Lisa.
Polka dots and stripes are timeless. Notice how the word “family” was die-cut using Bazzill’s Dotted Swiss cardstock. It is a nice addition to this page filled with circles (brads, ribbon, buttons, and Just The Edge) and stripes (ribbon and staples). Take time this fall season to take a photo of the family… no matter [...]

Capturing You
Posted on 09. Nov, 2009 by Lisa.
Notice how the title on this page is also a mat for one of the photos. This simple technique should only be used once on a page layout if you want to keep the focus on another large element somewhere else. Gotta love that tree cut from the Cosmo Cricket paper. To find out which [...]

Fall
Posted on 01. Nov, 2009 by Lisa.
There are two elements to note on this page. First look at the clever way each letter of the word FALL is embellished. It is simple, yet stunning. Next, check out the tree! How easy is that… a circle, a rectangle, and three buttons? That is an idea worth repeating.

Happy Halloween
Posted on 26. Oct, 2009 by Lisa.
This Halloween there is plenty of vintage, gothic, and creepy papers on the market and they are worthy of using as a focal point on your page. Be sure to take time to find the coordinating Bazzill cardstock to use as a background so the printed paper is reinforced and thick enough to hold the [...]

Too Cute To Spook
Posted on 19. Oct, 2009 by Lisa.
There is very little printed paper in this layout. To make the darling background, try pulling three Halloween-y colors, cutting each piece in strips, and attaching catty-wampus to the base cardstock using black brads in each corner. Brilliant idea. This idea would work great on boy pages too. Give it a try.

Eyes of a Child
Posted on 12. Oct, 2009 by Lisa.
Just a touch of pattern paper can be the inspiration for an entire page layout. This darling stripe prompts you to select a green, blue, and red that you probably wouldn’t pull from the Bazzill cardstock rack. But coordinate these colors with the stripe and it all comes together. Punching the circles out of coordinating [...]

Monster Mash

There are many “monster” patterned papers out right now, so pick your favorite and make a page for the little monster in your life. Be sure to incorporate the jagged Just the Edge cardstock strip pieces into the design, as well as plenty of rick rack! If you love the arrows shown in this page, [...]
