ArtPlay Festal Inspiration

1. Power of Threes

Create visual interest and foster emphasis by duplicating an element 3 times on your digital scrapbook page.

• 3 is the Magic Number in digital scrapbook page design.
• Place elements in threes to yield Visual Interest in your memory keeping.
• Notice how this placement can also lead the eye in a Visual Triangle.

2. Frame Your Photo

Use transfers with blending modes to create a central focal point in your digital scrapbook page.

• Layer transfers from the ArtPlay Palette and ArtsyTransfers in the ArtPlay Festal Collection.
• Blend a heritage photo by using the Clipping Mask Function or custom masking.
• Apply Blending Modes from the Layers Panel to increase the depth of color and contrast.

3. Subtle Visual Interest

Use transfers to add slight embellishment to a solid paper foundation on your digital scrapbook page.

• Less is Often More when adding digital elements to your memory-keeping layouts.
• Simply layer a single Transfer or two behind a focal photo for Sophisticated embellishment.
• We also love how Adryane framed her image with the architecture Photoshop brush.
