Fabulous and Fun Layouts....

Have you ever been stumped on how to layout your pictures on a scrapbook page? Or have you ever wanted just a little help from someone creative to point you in the right direction?

Well... the founder of Close To My Heart, Jeanette Lynton, has a line of published books that can help you break through your creative block. They are foundational how-to-programs that give you a step by step process to follow that is as easy as 1, 2, 3!

Here is a page layout from the book Imagine that I put together of pictures of me enjoying a sucker when I was little. This layout can be found on pages 64-65. Most of the layouts in this book, as well as the other three programs, can be either a one page or two page layout. This makes it easy to coordinate your pictures into whatever layout you like the best.


First you pick a layout that fits your style and number of pictures, then decided on coordinating cardstock and printed paper! Now you are ready for the last couple steps. Cut the paper and cardstock to the sizes that are listed in the book. Finally, follow the layout diagram on where to put all your cut pieces and pictures! DONE!! Now the fun part begins... embellish and journal to your liking!

Truly these layout books have endless layouts as you can simply rotate each layout 90, or 180 degrees and get a whole new look!

Close To My Heart has four complete layout program books titled: Magic, Reflections, Imagine, and Cherish! Each are different and have finished layout examples throughout the entire book... they are a MUST have for any scrapbooker!
