Instructions
Sort Your Photos
To start your page, select several photos of one theme. In this sample, there are four photos from a fall trip to an apple orchard. These photos are used to create a single, 12-inch by 12-inch scrapbook page. If you're considering creating a two-page spread, choose several more pictures to fill both pages. Select one photo to be the main picture on your layout. The easiest way to create a balanced, pleasing scrapbook page layout is to have a single focal point. Here, the strongest of the four images is the focal point of the page.
Next, crop or reprint the other photos in a smaller size so that the focal point photo is the largest one on the page.Select colors of solid and patterned papers that accentuate the photos. The selection for this page includes hunter green, navy, red, and white card stock, with a pair of blue-green patterned papers as accents.You'll find many styles of patterned papers and card stock with coordinating stickers that are perfect for your layouts. Coordinated items save you time when putting together your scrapbook page.To begin putting together the scrapbook page, you need a canvas. You can use a solid sheet of 12-inch by 12 inch scrapbook paper as your background on which you put your images. Or, you can create a 12-inch by 12-inch background with patterned paper and card stock.Here, the background is made beginning with a 12-inch wide by 4-inch tall strip of solid green card stock.
The green card stock is topped off with a 2-inch tall strip of patterned paper.
Two more strips are added to the bottom of the green strip until the paper is 12 inches wide by 12 inches tall to fit onto the scrapbook page.
