Got a pile of scrapbook stickers and no idea what to do with them? You’re in the right place. Stickers are one of the easiest (and most satisfying) ways to add personality to your pages, whether you’ve been scrapbooking for years or you’re just getting started.
Quick answer:
- Use stickers as borders, photo corners, page titles, and focal points
- Layer flat and puffy stickers together for a 3D texture
- Match sticker themes to your photos for a cohesive look
- There are no rules, so experiment and have fun with it
Why Stickers Belong in Every Scrapbook
Stickers take the pressure out of scrapbooking. You don’t need to be an artist or own fancy tools to make a page that looks great. A few well-placed craft stickers can turn a simple photo layout into something you’re genuinely proud of.
According to the Australia Council for the Arts, around 98% of Australians engage with the arts in some form, with visual arts and craft among the most popular creative activities. Scrapbooking sits right at the heart of that trend: accessible, personal, and endlessly creative.
15 Creative Ways to Use Scrapbook Stickers
- Create a sticker border. Line small stickers along the edges of your page for an instant frame effect.
- Use them as photo corners. Place matching stickers at the corners of your photos instead of traditional mounts.
- Build a title. Combine alphabet stickers to spell out page titles, dates, or short captions.
- Fill empty space. Got an awkward gap on your layout? A cluster of themed stickers fills it beautifully.
- Add 3D texture with puffy stickers. Layer them over flat elements to create depth. Browse puffy stickers for options that pop off the page.
- Create a timeline. Run stickers along a line to mark milestones, holiday stops, or monthly highlights.
- Frame your journaling. Place stickers around your handwritten notes to draw the eye.
- Make a sticker collage. Overlap different stickers to build a textured, layered focal point.
- Colour-coordinate your page. Pick stickers that match your photo tones for a polished, cohesive feel.
- Decorate divider pages. Use bold stickers to mark sections in themed albums like travel, baby, or wedding books.
- Embellish envelope pockets. Stick them on tucked-in envelopes that hold tickets, notes, or keepsakes.
- Create a background pattern. Repeat one small sticker across the page for a custom, patterned backdrop.
- Accent your washi tape. Layer a sticker on top of washi tape strips for extra dimension.
- Use stickers as arrows or pointers. Direct attention to key photos or journaling with arrow-shaped stickers.
- Start with a scrapbook kit. Pre-matched kits take the guesswork out of colour and theme coordination, especially when you’re new.
