Here Comes the Brid...al Brunch - One Collection, Multiple Layouts with Cheryl

I always love returning to Traci's collections because they're truly timeless. Their classic designs never go out of style, making them perfect for documenting treasured memories year after year. I'm not a chronological scrapper, so being able to return to a scrapbook collection time and again to finish documenting an event is not only cost effective for me, but it also ensures that I end up with layouts that coordinate beautifully together in my albums.

Back in August 2025, I created my first two layouts with this collection to document my youngest sister's bridal brunch. As I continued working through the photos, I knew a third page with the same collection would beautifully capture even more of the joy and love from the celebration with its layered embellishments and soft, romantic color palette, and would focus on the bride-to-be. Let's take a look at the previous layouts I created. 

The first layout captures my daughter and me being silly with an empty prosecco bottle, and I journaled about how we can find laughter and fun wherever we are together.

The second layout focuses on my sister and me, documenting the wonderful friendship we've built over the years and how she's truly one of my best friends. As you can see, both of these layouts also feature multiple photos, and they coordinate fabulously with each other and with my newest page.

For my newest layout, shown below, I anchored a large portrait of the bride-to-be on the left side of the page, while a grid of nine smaller photos on the right highlights the thoughtful details of the event, including the floral arrangements, table settings, favors, menus, and décor. I was able to fit ten photos on one layout while still keeping the focus on the bride, who is undoubtedly the star of the page. I should also admit that I have well over 100 photos from this one event, so finding creative ways to include multiple photos without sacrificing a balanced composition always feels like a win.

Throughout the design, I wove together layers of flat stickers with dimensional clusters of florals, greenery, fruit, and ephemera to create movement and visually connect the photos. A pink camera, the playful "Let's Brunch" title on the friendship bracelet, a date label, and heart accents reinforce the celebratory theme, while journaling cards and typed tags tucked beneath the layers preserve the memories of this special day.

I love how this finished page as it feels warm, cheerful, and full of the love we shared at my sister's bridal brunch, while coordinating perfectly with the two layouts I created previously. Whenever I finally finish scrapping all 100+ photos from this event (well, maybe not ALL of them), I know I'll be reaching for this same collection again. It's proof that a truly timeless scrapbook collection never goes out of style. If you don’t have this collection in your stash and you have photos of your best friends or your sisters, as well as photos of food and wine, you’ll want to pick this up today while it’s on sale!
