Croppin Paradise Design Series

The Design Team at Croppin Paradise has been hard at work again!

We realize, that while our main goal as scrapbookers is to record the memories of our lives for future generations, we often get hung up in how visually pleasing our pages are (or are not)... Sometimes pages will sit on my desk for days, elements unattached, because I cannot make them work!

Have you ever browsed the gallery (or your own albums) and spotted pages that stand out immediately? Are there pages that you look at and just cannot figure out why they don't seem to work?

Those "perfect" pages are usually ones that follow some of the most simple design principals. The principals of balance, gradation, repetition, contrast, harmony, dominance and unity.

This week at Croppin Paradise we hope to demystify these principles of design and help you incorporate them into your scrapbooking pages to help you create great, eye catching pages every time you sit down to scrap!

Also, each day will include a new challenge with a chance to win a prize! (challenges will be open until November 15th at 12midnight)

See you here tomorrow!
