Today we are creating a scrapbook layout using the Storybook Life Collection. Today we will elevate a scrapbook layout by adding a simple faux wood background to the layout. You can elevate any scrapbook layout using this technique and it helps to stretch your pattern paper and tie your themes together, especially for a country or outdoor vibe.
