We’re nearing the end of learning about how understanding design principles and using them as you choose and place all the parts of a scrapbook page yields awesome and original layout ideas. Lessons 2-7 covered design principles (emphasis, contrast, balance, alignment, repetition, flow). Lessons 8 through 12 are about putting those design principles to work as you render all the parts of a scrapbook page (photos, journaling, embellishments, title, and canvas).
In this lesson the focus is on titles and embellishments. While each of these topics could fill many lessons on their own, for this class I’ve grouped them together because (in my mind) titles often work as page embellishments, and the design considerations for them are the same or quite similar.
I hope you’re finding time to scrapbook . . . and I’m curious about whether you’re finding yourself trying new things or if any of your approaches have changed as a result of this class. The next lesson is on the final page part – which is my favorite and a huge topic: canvas. (In fact, I’ve created an entire class devoted to approaching the blank scrapbook page canvas.) Look for it in your inbox soon.
