Scrapbook Layout Ideas
What make certain scrapbook layout ideas pop? Why do some scrapbook layouts work out better than others?
There's just something about a layout that captures your attention and if you are to look carefully, you'll spot something... It's in the little details of things. It's like how unnoticeable stuff to others might make an impression on you. For example, my little niece could pick out little details of things that I completely missed out on! She could look at her story book and go "bear, bear!" and I would say, "No, there's no teddy bear here!" And she would insist there is and I had to look the page over and tuck right at the bottom of the page was... a tiny little symbol of a bear! So it's the same with scrapbooking layouts. There'll be certain details that hold your attention a little longer. It could be a color combo, a pretty design, a gorgeous photo or how everything comes together nicely for the layout. Maybe that explains why handmade stuff are so popular with people, as no one item is exactly the same as another. There'll always be some differences even if the same materials are used. I remember how I used to take a long time to pick up a teddy bear from the same batch of bears that looked about the same at first glance. But I know there's something unique about each bear, they each wore a different expression! So each scrapbook material you pick out for your scrapbook layout will make a difference and affect the overall feel. Here's five scrapbook layout ideas you can consider using that give many opportunities to work out your little details:
Scrapbooking Layout Idea #1Pair two different photos from different time periods to document the growth of your baby or even yourself. Use contrasting color combinations of card stocks to show the contrasts of growth.
Scrapbooking Layout Idea #2Pair an old photo with an updated layout design. This will give your old photo an updated look and record your current feelings upon looking back at the old photo.
Scrapbooking Layout Idea #3Pair a simple layout with heartfelt journaling. It can work wonders. Your journaling can make an otherwise bland layout stands out and sticks to mind.
Scrapbooking Layout Idea #4Pair an enlarged photo that highlights a heartwarming moment with a poem. Let the photo be the main focus. Then choose a poem that fits the mood of the photo perfectly. If you're inspired enough, write out your own little poem!
Scrapbooking Layout Idea #5Combine a series of photos that tell a story of your everyday life. A humorous or simple daily story. The detail lies in choosing a few photos that effectively bring out the story you want to convey.
Different people are attracted to different little details. Don't sweat over it. Just use those little details that appeal to your personally and apply them on your layouts. Over a period of time, as you consistently use the same details over many layouts, you'll soon develop your own unique scrapbooking style! Happy using these scrapbook layout ideas!
