Basic Digital Scrapbook Design Principles Tutorial
1. Asymmetrical Alignment. I clipped my photo to the frame’s clipping mask and changed it to black and white with a gradient map adjustment layer. I placed my granddaughter’s eyes on the intersection of the guide lines creating an asymmetrical design.
2. Texture to Create Dimensional Interest. Second, I clipped Solid Paper 3 to the FotoBlendz mask and layered Transfers 1, 2 and 6 along with Overlay 2 and the WordTransfer to build a textured foundation for a grouping of elements and to repeat the colors in the frame.
4. Proximity for Placement of Elements. Finally, I added elements in a group around the title rather than placing them randomly on the page. The button and thread on the right draw the eye out toward the edge for balance.
