Grateful Harvest Playful & Polished Layout Guide (5-double page layouts)
Elegant Autumn Storytelling with the Grateful Harvest Collection
Fall is all about gratitude, gathering, and gorgeous colors — and the Grateful Harvest Collection brings all of that to your scrapbook table! This Playful & Polished cutting guide takes those same cozy patterns and rich tones and layers them into a more elevated design that still feels warm and inviting.
With its thoughtful placement, layered papers, and balanced embellishments, this layout is perfect for highlighting meaningful moments — Thanksgiving dinner, family traditions, or cozy weekends at home.
This design is a little more detailed than Quick & Cute, but still approachable for any scrapbooker who wants to take their pages up a notch. The result? A layout that feels creative, cohesive, and beautifully finished — a true reflection of the season of gratitude.
🧡 Tip: Try mixing in texture — think vellum, foam squares, or layered borders — for a look that’s extra dimensional and full of fall charm.

Why Playful & Polished?
This series is for scrappers who want more than just quick cuts. It’s for those days when you want to play with papers, bring out the tools, and create pages that feel finished, balanced, and a little extra special—without being overly complicated.
Happy scrapping,
Diane 💙
