These adorable Back to School pics are surrounded by all the fun supplies used at school including a colorful banner of pencils across the top. Visit the Printable, Cuttable, Creatables blog for step by step directions.
The kids are heading Back to School so be sure to snap some cute pics of them in the first day back outfits, their new classroom, photos with their new teacher and projects they completed during the summer. There are so many fun themes to use for Back School with buses, books, apples, school supplies, subjects and primary or school colors. I’ve collected a fun group of scrapbook layouts to help get you started creating those Back to School memories.
Beneath each photo you’ll see a link, click to find more information like what products were used, tips, tricks and tutorials.
A circle of school supplies surrounds the first day of school photo on this layout. I love the stitching on the title and the lined paper for the journaling! I came across this layout idea on Becki Adams’ Scrapbook.com gallery.
These 3 layouts use the same sketch idea with a grid of 4 square photos, a thick border for hand written journaling and a large title. Each page focuses on a different subject or activity at school, it’s a great way to capture what your kids are enjoying participating in each year. Visit the Creative Memories blog for directions.
These sweet design has a large apple and sentiment die backed in cool colorful pattern papers. I love the squeezed in journaling in the corner on the lined paper, reminds me of taking notes in the margin. Learn more about this page over on the Paige Taylor Evans blog.
If you’re child had a summer reading list before returning to school that’s a fun idea to scrap about before they head back. Include a photo and maybe a list of what they read and their favorite book. Learn all about this layout on the Pretty Little Studio blog.
The first and last Back to School photos are probably some of your childs most important. This design is for a senior in high school on their last back to school day. Notice how the school colors from the photos were used in the page design that was created with products from Simple Stories. I came across this idea on Rebeca Ruiz’s gallery at Scrapbook.com.
Layering stamps were used for the pencils and scissors to create realistic looking supplies on this layout. Small torn notebook paper was used for the journaling and I love the faux cork pattern paper background, so perfect for school designs! Visit the Sunny Studio blog for all the details.
This bold masculine layout features a gold and black color scheme with pops of glitter. Check out all the fun inspirational sentiments along with the depth and texture created from dimensional stars, twine and stacks of embellishments. I spotted this page on Monique Nicole Fox’s Instagram page.
Alphabets and letters are another great idea to use on school layouts like this elegant pattern paper. Oliwiaen also added mixed media elements like 3D flowers, tags with twine, embossed butterflies and sequins, showing you don’t have to always use school themed products. Visit her blog for all the details.
The bright neon colors on this Back to School idea really pop on the black background of this digital scrapbook layout. You can find this and 5 more Back to School digi page ideas over on the Lilypad blog.
I love how it appears as though some of the apple are rolling off the pattern paper on this super sweet page. The photo and journaling are backed by coordinating papers and there’s a fun glittery “Happy” as part of the title. Visit the Shimelle blog for all the details.
Capture the kids working on their first homework assignments with a bold design like this one from Jessica. She used lots of different foils for some amazing shimmer and shine and also used stamps for numbers and shapes. Watch her process video on the Therm O Web blog.
I hope your kids have a wonderful new year at school and that you’ve found some inspiration to scrap their first days Back to School!
