Create a scrapbook page.

“As i cut out more and more details for my page I laid it all out and decided where I wanted things to go. As you see the layout is very similar to my first sketch but not at the same time. At this stage I am so undecided and still have many components to add or take away but this is were I'm at today. And so far I think this is looking quite good in my mind! I still want to add dimension, texture and obviously a story to this page. These components are still to come. A bit out of my comfort zone designing a scrapbook page but as I go along I'm realizing that the process is much the same as designing a card.”

“My first step was to research other scrapbook pages and get an idea of how things are laid out. With in a few minuets I had a layout in mind and took to sketching out what I had imagined in my mind. For me this is where I always begin weather it be a card a mixed media piece or I guess a scrapbook page. Since I am fortunate enough to work at Ecstasy Crafts and have access to hundreds of supplies to make my creation come to life, it was easy for me to browse for the exact tree or the mountain or frame that I imagined.”
