in Scrapbooking Ideas

Digital scrapbooking offers freedom for experimentation not totally possible with paper, scissors and glue. We’re seeing more and more of fun approaches to digital style in the galleries. Here are 8 layouts I’m loving and what new techniques you can learn from them.

:: Try cropping with a new angle (Today and always by Janka)

:: Re-think background positioning & size ([cutie] by kissncontrol)

:: Offer new perspective on your page (A day under the sunshine by Lauralys)

:: Tuck elements inside of other shapes (Walking with his Baby by pewtertm)

:: Use paint smudges to emphasize text (Valentine’s Day by Carolee)

:: Think about what’s underneath (My Lucky Charm by liljatr)

:: Be strategic with shadowing (Remember These Moments by aussiekat)

:: Don’t forget the power of photo-less scrapping (Off Air by tettletop20)
