It’s officially Love Month and you’re going to LOVE this super-fun and inspiring Instagram Hop from the TRD team, all using the Over The Moon collection!

We asked ChatGPT to give us layout ideas for the Over The Moon collection and it came up with some pretty inspiring prompts!

Check out all the prompts and layouts below!

Traci

Heart Constellation
Technique: Arrange heart-shaped photos to form a constellation pattern. Use metallic or glitter pens to draw connecting lines resembling the night sky.

For some reason, Chat-GPT has an obsession with shaped photos like it’s still 1995, so I omitted that suggestion and instead used my foil quill and my silhouette to make a heart-shaped constellation for my page featuring the sweetest, snuggliest pupper to ever live!

Love in the Cosmos
Technique: Use a circular layout to represent the cosmos. Arrange photos around a central heart-shaped planet, surrounded by smaller moon and star embellishments.

Hi friends, Theresa here with Prompt No. 04: Use a circular layout to represent the cosmos. Arrange photos around a central heart-shaped planet, surrounded by smaller moon and star embellishments.

I began with my photos for this layout, from one of our breakfast dates. I used the gorgeous red alphabet in the Over The Moon collection to create my title, laying the words out so that they sort of fit around the photos. I’ve used the hot air balloon as the heart shaped planet, isn’t it adorable?! And then added moons and other embellishments around the cluster. I also added a few red star enamel dots along with other blue dots to represent stars and moons as well! How fun!

Rocketing Hearts Adventure
Technique: Incorporate a rocket-shaped pocket to hold love notes or small mementos. Use metallic accents for a futuristic feel.

To create a rocket pocket., I printed out my rocket to be slightly smaller than the width of a travelers notebook so it could become the pull tab for my journaling. I created my pocket by cropping down a patterned paper and printing it on film. I sewed it to the gray paper before going everything into my notebook with some metallic silver thread. to carry that sparkle and texture to the other side of the page, I made sure to add little bundles of thread to each of my clusters.

Caroline

Starry Affection
Technique: Create a background using star-patterned paper. Arrange heart-shaped photos in a grid and overlay with die-cut planets and rockets.

I opted to drop the heart-shaped photos and use some heart embellishments instead. I did use a grid of square photos and Ilove the look of the grid on my travellers notebook spread. There are a few different star papers in the collection, and I opted for the colourful stars from the traveller’s notebook signatures as my main paper, but used the blue star paper as a background for my photos to ground them. I decided I wanted longer journalling, so created a tag from patterned paper and embellishments to slip behind the pages in my notebook. I can type up my journalling and tuck it in the pocket between the pages. I loved this prompt and this is such a great collection too!

Becky

Hot Air Love Balloons
Technique: Design a cluster of heart-shaped hot air balloons lifting off from the bottom of the layout, carrying photos of cherished moments.

The first thing I did was grab several Distress Oxides in various shades of blue and make myself a paintery background. I cut myself out a heart and basket shape on my Silhouette and then backed the heart with 5 of the 3x4 cards which I cut into strips and then edge punched. I cut out the photo of my husband and myself which isn’t something I’d usually do but it went perfectly in the basket! I printed and cut the balloon alpha several times then stacked each letter to give them depth. I printed stars on velum and added them along with lots of the balloons from the sticker pack and finished off with 3 little wood veneer birds from my stash and some Nuvo Drops!

Love's Countdown
Technique: Craft a rocket-shaped countdown featuring the days or years you've spent together. Use heart-shaped embellishments as numbers.

My prompt this month was based on rockets and hearts. One of my big goals for the year is to start scrapping my sons as babies. You see I wasn’t a Scrapbooker when they were born and I didn’t start until they were about five. So obviously, I have a lot of photos that need to be scanned so that I can scrapbook them either hybrid or digital. Tracey‘s collection Over the Moon was perfect for these sweet photos of my oldest sons first outing after he was born. you can see that his cousins love him so much and everybody was excited to meet him.

The mini shades of blue and red will go so well with the photos I have of my young babies. I can’t wait to dive even deeper into this collection and get a good head start on their albums.

Balloons in Space
Technique: Combine hot-air balloon die cuts with starry skies. Attach heart-shaped balloons to each photo, lifting them towards the cosmic expanse.

I made several hearts in different sizes to mimic several balloons and a box to make my own “heart hot-air balloon”. Once I was satisfied with the look, I chose papers to clip onto the heart-shaped masks and then used lots of florals and other elements to create a clustered and layered look. I used a watercolor brush (one of the defaults in my editing software) to randomly make cloud shapes. I clipped this again to one of the papers in the kit to mimic a starry night sky.

Tarrah

Burst of Love
Technique: Feature a central heart-shaped hot air balloon bursting with smaller heart confetti. Surround with photos capturing special moments.

I decided to have my Silhouette Cameo cut out a heart shape from plain white cardstock, I then added one of the gorgeous patterned papers from the Over the Moon collection behind the heart. I picked out a deep red coloured thread and hand stitched around the outside of the heart. I scattered lots of the heart stickers and embellishments around the larger heart to mimic confetti, I love how my layout turned out!

Nicole

Hearts Afloat
Technique: Create a floating effect by suspending heart-shaped hot air balloons with thin strings. Arrange photos around the balloons against a starry background.

Hey all, Nicole here with my take on the Over the Moon Insta hop with ChatGPT prompts. I got a prompt to make a layout with a stary sky and heart balloons. So that is exactly what I did! I printed the patterned paper on a 12x12. I printed lots of goodies from the stickers and ellies then embellished. Then a made the title with alphas from the collection. It came together quite simply! Hope this gives you some ideas on how to use your Over the Moon collection! Happy crafting!

Galactic Love Notes
Technique: Incorporate pockets shaped like rockets or hot air balloons to hold handwritten love notes. Scatter stars and hearts around the pockets.

Melinda

Love Takes Flight
Technique: Create a dynamic layout with photos arranged in the shape of flying birds or heart-shaped balloons against a galaxy background.

After initially being somewhat stumped with my prompt inspiration hit!! My prompt was “Create a dynamic layout with photos arranged in the shape of flying birds or heart-shaped balloons against a galaxy background” And I think I nailed it!
I decided that rather do a layout I would make a card. And not just any card!

This is a mason jar shaped card with a jar shaped sequin shaker AND a galaxy background IN the mason jar!! I LOVE everything about this card and am super excited to give it to hubby on love day!

In place of heart-shaped balloon photos I went with the heart balloons on a string and printed those onto a clear transparency to use for my card front! Layered my sentiment and stuck all the pieces together!

Tracie

Love Beyond Borders
Technique: Design a layout with photos framed within heart-shaped borders. Connect the hearts with a trail of star and balloon embellishments.

After a little bit of trial and error, I got the idea to use the stickers and embellishments from the collection to make a heart shaped border around the subject of my photo. It was so much fun to play with all of the different products included! I didn’t connect them with a trail of stars, as the prompt suggested, but I did include a trail of stars behind the photo.

Emiley

Eternal Love Expedition
Technique: Design a layout with a rocket heading towards a heart-shaped planet. Use metallic pens to draw the rocket's trajectory through the stars.

This collection is just the cutest and I wanted to be able to carry it around with me all month, so I decided to use it to create a dashboard for my catch all planner! My prompt was to design a layout with a rocket headed towards a heart shaped planet. I stuck pretty close to the prompt - just switched out the “planet” for the adorable heart shaped moon Traci had created. Love it!

Traci's new collection, "Over the Moon" completely captivated me. It's unconventional! And its strong colors inspired me in my page full of sweetness! I love how he was able to mix flowers, rockets, and our beloved moon. Treat yourself to moments of sweetness by creating your own page too!
