25 Bold Orange Scrapbook Ideas & Junk Journal Layouts
Orange doesn’t always get the spotlight it deserves, but in the world of scrapbook pages and junk journals?
Total scene-stealer.
It brings so much energy without trying too hard. Whether you’re layering background paper, playing with torn edges, or adding scraps to your next collage, orange is a solid go-to.
It works any time of year — not just for fall or Halloween.
Seriously, give orange a chance and it might just become your new favorite neutral-but-not-neutral.

One of the easiest ways to work it in is with a single photo or multi-photo layout and then pulling in its complementary colors. I loooove it with shades in the blue or purple hue family. The contrast is just so gorgeous!
Orange and purple together are like the artsy version of a best friend duo — bold, fun, and always bringing the drama in the best way.
Great for scrapbook journals, spreads in an abc album, or even just building around your stash of American Crafts or Echo Park goodies.
FAQs: Orange Scrapbook Ideas
We get asked this A LOT. Like, what is the point of it? First of all, it’s a hobby! Its fun! Creative! Relaxing! But if we want to get more technical, the main point of scrapbooking (and junk journaling!) is to capture memories and express yourself creatively. For some, it’s all about preserving special moments and family stories; for others, it’s more like art therapy. A way to relax and play with paper, photos, and a little glue. Or as we say, we stick paper on paper. At Slowestuff, we say: do what feels fun! Yeesh!
Honestly? Not much! You’ll want some orange paper (obviously), stickers, washi tape, glue, scissors, and whatever photos or random bits make you happy. You do NOT need fancy tools to start! Raid your junk drawer. Peel the label off a candle. Grab receipts, magazine clippings, or old greeting cards — it all works. Pro tip: layering is your friend, and the messier it gets, the more “artsy” it looks. No gatekeeping here! We have a little storefront set up with some of our favorites. Check it out here!
Oh, bestie, absolutely NOT! Orange brings energy and fun to any theme – summer, birthdays, travel, even random Tuesday vibes. It’s the ultimate “pop of color” for all seasons. You can go bold with neons, soft with peach, or mix orange with blues and pinks, or our favorite, PURPLE, for a completely non-fall vibe. Seriously, orange deserves to be your year-round main character.
Great question, and we get this one a lot! Scrapbooking usually means layouts built around photos and memories, like a fancy, decorated photo album. Junk journaling? That’s pure “do what you want” energy — think random scraps, tickets, receipts, art, no rules, no photos required. If you love structure, go scrapbook. If you love chaos (the good kind!), try junk journaling. But honestly? Mix them up! We have a post discussing this more, and showing examples of each. Check it out here!

If you’re not sure about the difference between scrapbooking and junk journaling, here’s how we categorize them. Scrapbooks are focused around photos, while junk journals don’t necessarily have pictures. That’s kind of it in a nutshell!
Scrapbooks are great for preserving those favorite memories with family members or making something that feels like a keepsake. Junk journals? They’re perfect for experimenting, using scraps from Valentine’s Day cards, and just having fun with different textures and vibes.
We actually have a whole blog post talking about the difference, with examples of each. Check it out here!

These orange-filled designs are such a great way to use up all those bright color orange pieces in your scrapbook supplies—and maybe even inspire your first pages if you’re new to journaling.
Layer using visual triangles with some orange, it is an easy way to shake up your color routine, especially if you’re feeling stuck or just over the usual palettes.
Just throw on a playlist, follow the down arrows in your gut, and let orange take the lead.
