Can you believe it's already June? A brand new month means fresh inspiration, new memories to document, and of course—new layout challenges over in the forums at DigitalScrapbook.com!
Whether you're catching up on past projects or ready to dive into something new, the challenges are a great way to spark creativity and connect with other scrappers. There’s something for everyone—so grab your favorite kit, open up your program of choice, and let’s get scrapping!
This layout is my reflection on a difficult chapter in my life—having my knee rebuilt at 41 and learning to trust God through the pain and healing. I used James 1:2–4 to remind myself (and others) that trials produce steadfastness, and through them, we are made stronger. This month’s layout theme of Personal Growth and Reflection really spoke to me, and I wanted to share how even in brokenness, we are never truly broken.
This alpha from the Baking Days collection was the perfect choice for my layout. The playful yet bold style brought a sense of joy and strength—which mirrors the emotional tone of my story: facing a hard trial but holding onto faith.
I used the teal alpha to highlight key words like “Joy” and “Perfect”, pulling those directly from both the scripture and my reflection. The teal tone not only coordinates with the rest of my page, but also visually reinforce the message of hope, renewal, and personal growth.
The mix of uppercase and lowercase letters gives it a slightly whimsical, human feel—which felt just right for a page that’s both honest and hopeful.
How the Kit Enhances My Theme
Deep Emotional Tone:
The kit’s name—Reflections—says it all. My layout is a heartfelt reflection on a time of pain, perseverance, and spiritual growth. This kit’s soft, soulful imagery (like the pensive illustrated woman and vintage elements) mirrors that introspective tone and brings a tender emotional depth to the page.
