Scrapbooking can be a breeze with a few simple yet creative ideas, especially when working with 12×12 scrapbook paper. Here are some easy-to-implement suggestions:
1. Quick Background Layout

- Add pre-cut stickers, labels, or die-cuts for embellishments.
**2. Grid Design
- Cut the 12×12 paper into 3×3 or 4×4 squares.
- Arrange the squares in a grid on a contrasting background or directly on the 12×12 sheet.

**3. Pocket-Style Pages
- Divide the 12×12 paper into pockets by cutting or folding it into sections.
