Mom-Theme Scrapbook Pages

Design by Julie Fei-Fan Balzer

Julie combined stenciled blocks with square photos for a quick page. She took silly pictures of her and her mother and used the center block for quick journaling about their time together.

Editor's Tip: Make a stencil using cardstock with a square punched from it. Spray ink over the stencil in two colors, then layer a paper doily on it, and spray a third color.
