Fifteen of Our FAVORITE Layouts Using the True North Collection!
Hey, Hey! Today we’re doing fun round up in conjunction with our True North instagram hop and the team is showing off their FAVORITE layouts using the True North collection! If you’re looking for some inspiration, you’ve found it! Scroll on down and check out our faves!
Traci
Not only is this layout my favorite True North Layout, but one of my favorite layouts of all time. There is something so magical about the photo + the layering that I think catches the true vibe of the beach at Pacifica in Northern California perfectly!
Cheryl
This layout, crafted with the True North Collection, is my favorite of the two layouts I’ve created. The color scheme, featuring aqua and dark navy blue, complements my photos beautifully. Pops of red, pink, and additional shades of blue create a vibrant and balanced look. I particularly love the large, centered photo, which draws attention and serves as the focal point. The embellishments and smaller photos are thoughtfully arranged in the two corners, adding visual interest and dimension to the layout.
Labels are a key feature in this design, enhancing the narrative and guiding the viewer’s eye across the page. The photos capture a memorable Fourth of July spent at my sister’s friends’ home, where we relaxed by their pool while they were away. Floating in the pool was incredibly soothing for my back, making the day even more enjoyable. This collection is versatile, and this layout showcases how the True North Collection can enhance various water-related photos, not just ones taken at the beach!
Tarrah
This layout created with the gorgeous True North collection is my favorite because I put quite a bit of thought into how I wanted my layout to look in the end. I created a cut file out of one of the anchor embellishments, resizing it large and cutting it out twice from 2 different papers from the collection. I layered these over the top of each other cutting the rope bits off the top one to reveal the paper underneath that looked more like a rope color. I also added a little watercolor to define the anchor against the white cardstock. Photo, title and embellishments finished it off and I love how it turned out.
Becky
I’ve made several layouts with True North but this one is my favourite as I love how the bunting, a Paige Taylor Evans cut file backed with papers from the True North 3x4 cards, looks with the photo of the beach hut. So simple, but so effective.
Donna
This is my favorite True North project because scrapbooking will always be number 1 in my crafty heart. One of the amazing things you can do in digital scrapbooking is resizing the elements to your liking. In this layout, I resized one of the nautical elements really big to serve as the focal decoration of my layout. From there, I arranged the rest of the elements around it with the photo in the center.
Elena
The True North collection is fabulous and for a sailboat lover like me it was a breeze to get inspired! I love the sea and the wind that caresses you, the silence, the rocking of the sea that takes you far away, to the open sea. Fantastic!

I love Traci’s newest collection True North. It will be perfect to document some of my vacation memories from my 2023 Canada vacation. I decided to use some Heidi Swapp notebooks for these albums as a way to challenge myself and use my supplies! I started by documenting this beautiful waterfall right outside of Quebec City. Its the first time I used digital mixed media on sticker paper and I’m in love! I might do it on every page going forward, lol!
I also created 2 pockets to be able to add more photos to this spread - since I always take too many photos on vacation and hate to purge too many! I created several tabs using several of the elements so that anyone looking at my spread will know there’s more to see!
Noemi
My favorite project from the True North collection is my mini album. I think it’s adorable, and the story behind it truly fills my heart. It was so fun to make, and I’ll keep it close to remind me of the day I documented in it.
Theresa
There was no doubt in my mind that the Oceanside layout I created with the True North collection is my favorite for this release. It really is hard to choose a favorite, because a collection like this one makes every layout a favorite! But I really love the pink patterned paper along with the digital mixed media nets and the adorable little crabs printed out directly on top of the pink paper. Everything else was layered on top as physical printed products to add dimension and depth, and to me that is the chef’s kiss of a hybrid layout! Absolute perfection!
Nicole
I just love this layout of my friend catching a fish with his bare hands while in Hawaii. The True North collection was perfect to make this page too! I really love all the embellishments in the kit and this little sail boat was so cute!
Tracie
I’ve made a few different pages with this collection and it’s hard to pick a favorite, but I really love this spread for my San Diego trip album. Traci’s collection made it super easy to put these pages together and document these memories!
Emiley
This collection is so cute! I have created a few things with it, but this layout is my favorite…finding a way to use multiple papers (my very favorite product) always makes me happy and using this cutfile was a great way to do it. I also am in love with those flowers!
Torey
It wasn’t hard for me to pick a favorite layout from the ones I made with True North (surprisingly). BUT that is probably only because I used soooo many of my favorite Ellie (the crocheted flowers!!) and the photo I documented of my daughter makes me giggle. This was such a great release though, I think most of my layouts will land in my favorites of the this year!
Vanessa
I love the True North collection it is so perfect to scrapbook all my beach photos. This collection was the perfect choice to go to with my photos of my son first putting his feet in the ocean. The fun shell and crab embellishments were so perfect. Two of my favorite parts of this layout are the title with the amazing banner letters and the mixed media elements from the digital kit that I used to create the background. I absolutely love how this layout turned out.
Ronelia
My favourite layout for this stunning collection is my YouTube Hop layout, specifically the large photo 6x12 back to front layout. I love the soft colours and how well this entire collection works with my chosen photo.
