Summer Digital Scrapbooking Supplies

 


Welcome to this year's Summer digital scrapbooking supplies showcase. You can check back at previous posts over the year for older summer digital scrapbooking supplies. A lot of what is showcased on those posts, are still in the stores! 

Summer is a season filled with sunshine, adventures, and unforgettable moments. From lazy beach days to vibrant sunsets and road trips with loved ones, there's something truly magical about this time of year. One of the best ways to cherish these memories is through scrapbooking. While traditional scrapbooking has its charm, digital scrapbooking has gained immense popularity due to its convenience and endless creative possibilities. 

In this blog post, we'll explore some of the most treasured summer memories and discover how digital scrapbooking supplies can help preserve and beautifully showcase these moments. 

Beach Days and Ocean Adventures: The beach is synonymous with summer, and the memories made there are cherished for a lifetime. Whether it's building sandcastles, jumping into waves, or collecting seashells, these experiences capture the essence of summer. Digital scrapbooking supplies offer a vast array of ocean-themed elements, such as seashells, starfish, and palm trees, that can be used to embellish your layouts. Combine vibrant backgrounds, playful fonts, and your favorite beach photographs to create visually stunning pages that bring back the joy of those sun-kissed days. 

Road Trips and Travel Escapades: Summer is the perfect time to hit the road and embark on exciting adventures. Whether you explored a national park, visited a new city, or camped under the stars, these travel memories deserve a special place in your scrapbook. Digital scrapbooking supplies provide an extensive collection of travel-themed elements, such as maps, suitcases, and road signs, allowing you to create unique layouts that reflect the spirit of your journeys. Add in your most cherished photos, along with journaling about the places you've visited and the memories you've made along the way. 

Backyard BBQs and Gatherings: Summer is a season of togetherness, marked by backyard barbecues, family reunions, and friendly gatherings. These occasions are filled with laughter, delicious food, and bonding moments that warm our hearts. With digital scrapbooking supplies, you can design layouts that capture the festive atmosphere of these events. Incorporate colorful patterns, BBQ-themed graphics, and candid snapshots to create vibrant pages that reflect the joy and connection shared during those summer get-togethers. 

Spectacular Sunsets and Outdoor Beauty: Summer evenings gift us with breathtaking sunsets, vibrant skies, and the splendor of nature. Whether you witnessed a mesmerizing sunset at the beach or enjoyed a hike surrounded by lush greenery, these natural wonders hold a special place in our memories. Digital scrapbooking supplies provide a vast array of elements inspired by nature, such as floral motifs, foliage, and sunset-themed graphics. Combine these with your most captivating photographs to create layouts that beautifully capture the magic of the outdoors. 

You know the drill if you have been around here for longer than a post. But I will always say... Everything is linked to their counterparts in the store. I am not set out to have these series filled with designs from the creative teams I am on. However, as they are all awesome, they are bound to pop up from time to time. If you want to know what teams I am on, check the "My Creative Teams" tab at the top of this site. With the creative teams I am on, I get their products for free. That is in return for making sample layouts for their advertisement purposes. I am not required to post anything about them here at Shawn Bear Scraps. If it makes it here, it is because I super love them! Now on to the fun stuff!!
