Beach Scrapbook Layouts
Do you need Beach Scrapbook Ideas? Beach and Cruise Scrapbooks are some of my favorites to make. Beach Scrapbook Paper is so bright, and the summery colors are really eye catching. When I go to Scrapbooking Retreats and people are working on their scrapbooking layouts, beach is one of the most popular themes. I owned a Scrapbook Store for nine years, and Beach Scrapbook Paper was always the first to sell out. Since we live 90 minutes from Ocean City, Maryland customers always had beach scrapbook layouts to do!
With the popularity of cruises and tropical vacation destinations, beach scrapbook ideas are always in demand.
Make a Beach Scene
I used torn sand colored paper to create sand dunes for the bottom of this Beach Layout. I inked the torn edges with Colorbox Cat’s Chalk Ink in Chestnut Roan. Then I tucked in a sandcastle sticker and some shell stickers. I accented the tags at the top of page with beach colored buttons, fluffy water blue fiber, and a beach charm. This created a great beach scene.
Another Beach Scene Scrapbook Idea
This beach scene was created using solid cardstock as the background. Then I tore tan paper and added brown ink to the edges to make it look like sand dunes. I used the Cricut to add the sun, umbrella, clouds, and airplane. To create the Ocean City title, I cut out the individual letters and adhered them using a repositional adhesive like Hermafix. Then I applied Versamark ink over top of the title making sure to get it around the outside of the letters. Using an alligator clip and chalk applicator, I dabbed brown chalk to the Versamark. The chalk will stick to the Versamark better than just to the plain paper. It makes the chalk look much darker as well. Then I peeled off the letters, and the title was revealed. It’s a unique way to create a title.
Another Beachy Idea!
A variety of Beach Scrapbooking Paper was used to create this colorful layout. I also added a few coordinating embellishments. All of the items came in a kit so putting the layout together was super easy. Everything was already perfectly matched!
Use Bright Papers
I hope this Beach Scrapbook Page gives you some inspiration for thinking outside of the box. The paper isn’t beach paper, but the colors are perfect for the beach. The cow floating in the raft is a rubberstamp that was colored with markers. The title was created using the Pazzles Creative Cutter Pro.
Glittery Beach Layout Idea
This is a sample of beach scrapbooking overlay idea. The page is already created with blocks. All you do is add your pictures and embellishments. The glittery beach tag was made using double sided stickers and ultrafine glitter. The flip flops were created using felt for the sole and stringing beads on wire for the straps. I love how it turned out!

Idea for a Double Layout
Yellow is always the perfect color for beach scrapbook layouts. I added a few stickers to make this great page. It really lets the photos be the focus of the this scrapbook page.
Ocean City, Maryland Scrapbook Layout
Pink looks great as the base of this Beach Scrapbook Layout. I used blues for accent since it matches the photo. The Ocean City title was made using the Creative Cutter Pro, and the shells and seahorse were made using the Cricut. I accented the corners of the date title with flower brads.
Scrapbooking at the Beach
More pink! This time I added a small pink patterned paper to the solid cardstock. The little bit of striped paper on the tag and the gingham ribbon add just a little bit of pattern to this Beach Layout.
Tear Bears to add to your Beach Scrapbook
These bears would be perfect on your beach scrapbook pages. If you start with one of these adorable bears, I’m sure you’ll come up with lots of ideas for layouts!
Another Beach Layout
A variety of Beach Scrapbooking Paper was used to create this colorful layout. I also added a few coordinating embellishments. All of the items came in a kit so putting the layout together was super easy. Everything was already perfectly matched!
Taking Beach Photos
When taking photos for your Beach Scrapbook Layouts, take a variety of close up shots as well as distance shots. Sometimes, we get stuck in a rut and only take horizontal pictures, but make sure you take some vertical ones as well.
Bright Beach Scrapbook Page
The best way to get lots of photos on a page is to use a colorblocking technique. By cropping the photos into rectangles and squares that have the same height or width, I fit more photos on this Beach Layout. I added flowers, jungle leaves, and tropical drinks to the empty rectangles. If you look closely you’ll notice that I didn’t even use any Beach Paper on this layout!
Pretty Beach Scrapbook Paper
Here is more bright Beach Paper. It came in a kit, so making everything match was a piece of cake! These pages are actually from a Luau themed party, but the beach paper is perfect for this occasion!
Another Beautiful Beach Scrapbooking Layout
More coordinating Beach Scrapbook Paper and a few stickers. This time I added a little ribbon to the stickers.
Rubberstamped Beach Layout
This layout was created using rubberstamps. The background was stamped with shell rubberstamps from Stampin’ Up. The embellishment in the lower left corner was created using a variety of shell stamps and glitter.
