Hello, fellow scrapbook enthusiasts! Today, I’m thrilled to share a special 12x12 double-page scrapbook layout inspired by Disney’s iconic “Soarin’” ride at California Adventure. This layout captures not only the fun and anticipation of waiting in line but also the exhilarating feeling of adventure and travel that “Soarin’” embodies. Using Close To My Heart’s (CTMH) “Let’s Go Anywhere” paper pack and a few creative techniques, I was able to bring our Disney memories to life in a unique, visually dynamic way.
A Magical Morning at Disney: The Story Behind the Layout
My son and I arrived bright and early for Magic Hour, becoming the first in line for “Soarin’.” Waiting in the hangar-style decor of metal walls, vintage airplane photos, and aviation-themed details, I knew the “Let’s Go Anywhere” collection’s blues, greens, and grays would perfectly capture both the colors and movement of our surroundings.
Materials Used:
• CTMH “Let’s Go Anywhere” Paper Pack: This versatile collection was perfect for capturing the theme without feeling overly styled, allowing for use across various scrapbook projects.
• Design Space® & Cricut®: SVGs from the Digital Art Kit, including planes, arrows, passports, and luggage, added a custom touch.
• CTMH Gray Cardstock & Ink Pad: To create the scored wall effect reminiscent of the hangar walls at “Soarin’.”
• CTMH Digital Art Embellishments: Added to enhance the overall aesthetic and depth of the layout.
Designing in Design Space® with SVGs and Cricut®
Using Design Space® and my Cricut®, I designed custom embellishments from the “Let’s Go Anywhere” Digital Art Kit. The travel-themed SVGs, including planes, passports, and luggage, helped create a layout that echoed the thrill of our adventure. The globe outline placed over a green map-patterned paper added depth and perfectly captured the theme of travel, while dashed lines behind the planes represented movement, and the stars marked our “destination.”
For the title, I wanted it simply to be the name of the ride! I found this SVG on Esty
Creating the Hanger Wall Effect
To mimic the metal walls of the ride’s waiting area, I scored lines on gray cardstock and lightly brushed CTMH ink over the ridges. This subtle shadowing added depth, evoking the ride’s hangar setting.
Pro Tip: Apply ink sparingly over scored lines to create a natural shadow effect without overpowering the background.
Adding Depth with Directional Elements and Embellishments
The layout is rich with directional elements that guide the eye across the page. Arrows were added to indicate direction, and stars dotted throughout the layout represent destinations, echoing the feel of a travel map. By adding dashes behind the planes, I was able to convey a sense of movement, creating a lively flow that brings the Disney ride experience into the scrapbook.
Why This Collection Works Perfectly for Disney Soarin’ Layouts
CTMH’s “Let’s Go Anywhere” collection brings both vibrancy and subtlety, making it ideal for Disney-Soarin’ themed layouts. The understated travel elements add an adventurous touch, and the colors beautifully accentuate the photos, enhancing the thrill of the ride!
