Soarin’ into Scrapbook Magic: A Disney-Inspired Double-Page Layout! ✈️✨

Updated: Feb 15

Buckle up because we’re taking off into another high-flying scrapbook adventure! If you’ve ever soared above breathtaking landscapes on Disney’s iconic Soarin’ Ride at California Adventure, you know it’s an experience worth remembering


From the anticipation of waiting in line to the exhilarating journey across the world, this 12x12 double-page scrapbook layout captures all the magic—and I did it using Close To My Heart’s (CTMH) “Let’s Go Anywhere” collection with a little Cricut® creativity!


Bringing the Soarin’ Experience to Life in a Scrapbook Layout

 Photographs of aviators line a beige corrugated wall, displaying black-and-white images. A ceiling fan spins above a "California Aviators Legends of Flight" sign.
📸 Hangar vibes! The metal-paneled walls, vintage aviation photos, and travel nostalgia inside Soarin’ set the stage for this scrapbook’s color scheme and design!

Disney memories aren’t just about the rides—they’re about the entire experience. My son and I kicked off our Disney day with Magic Hour, scoring first-in-line bragging rights for Soarin’! The metal hangar walls, vintage aviation decor, and sense of adventure had me instantly thinking of CTMH’s “Let’s Go Anywhere” paper pack—its rich blues, greens, and grays were a perfect match for the ride’s atmosphere.


The Must-Have Supplies For This Disney-Inspired Soarin Scrapbook Layout


 Scrapbooking elements with travel themes, including maps, planes, suitcases, and phrases like "Let's Go" and "You make the world better."
🛩️ The perfect travel companion! The CTMH Let’s Go Anywhere collection captures the adventure, movement, and excitement of travel-themed layouts like this one! 🌍✂️

✔️ CTMH “Let’s Go Anywhere” Paper Pack – The ultimate travel-inspired collection that gave this layout its adventurous edge!


✔️ Design Space® & Cricut® – Used to cut custom embellishments, like planes, arrows, and travel icons, for a fully personalized look.


✔️ CTMH Gray Cardstock & Ink Pad – Essential for creating the scored metal hangar wall effect (trust me, this detail is a game-changer!).


✔️ CTMH Digital Art Embellishments – Perfect for adding depth, movement, and aviation-themed elements to enhance the Disney magic!


Designing the Layout: From Cricut® Cuts to Custom Details


✈️ A Title That Takes Flight

When it comes to Disney ride scrapbook layouts, nothing makes a bigger statement than an iconic ride logo as the title! I found the perfect “Soarin’” SVG on Etsy, cut it with my Cricut®, and boom—instant Disney magic!


For the title, I wanted it simply to be the name of the ride! I found this SVG on Esty.


 Airplane silhouette, "Soarin'" text in blue on cloud, red arrow pointing to "Malibu," and a star sticker on a map pattern.
🌍 A title that takes flight! The bold Soarin’ logo stands out as the perfect centerpiece for this high-flying scrapbook layout! ✈️💙

🏗️ Creating the Hangar Wall Effect

To mimic the metal walls in Soarin’s queue, I scored gray cardstock with vertical lines and lightly brushed CTMH ink over the ridges.


💡 Pro Tip: Apply ink sparingly to raised edges to create natural shadows—it’s an easy way to add depth and realism to any background!

 Scrapbook page with travel theme; two photos of smiling people. Background features a globe, clouds, planes, "Soarin'" logo. Locations: Malibu, Yosemite, Disneyland.
🗺️ One-page magic! Not enough photos for a double-page spread? This left-hand layout works perfectly as a single-page design! 🎟️📸

🛫 Movement & Directional Elements


A layout about flight has to feel dynamic, so I:

✅ Added arrows to guide the eye (and mimic travel signage).

✅ Placed dashed lines behind the planes to convey movement.

✅ Sprinkled in stars to represent destinations (because this ride lets you see the world! 🌍
