When creating scrapbook designs deserving to show off to your friends and family it's crucial to consider the following elements when arranging your pages.

Alignment



Aligning the elements on the page can be done by making sure that every element has some visible connection with another element on the page. It creates a clean, complicated, fresh look. Try putting your elements in rows or columns, and making sure they are lined up.

Dynamics



How can you arrange your scrapbook page to best show off your mementos and embellishments? You can place everything in the center of your page, place a single focus item in the center, or divide the page into sections adding items to each section. You'll also opt to lay the items out in the standard recipe or calendar layout.

Shapes also make engaging placement patterns. Common shapes include circles, squares, hearts, and stars. But you may place items in object patterns like mountains, trains, or Christmas trees.

The shape you choose for your scrapbook will rely totally on your theme. For example, a logical shape for a marriage or Valentines Day scrapbook is a heart. A pleasant shape for a Xmas scrapbook is a Christmas tree. You might make a cake pattern for your niece the pastry cook. Let your inventiveness and creativity be your guide.

Various instant patterning templates can be gotten in craft shops.

Repetition



Repetition is when you repeat some element of the design through the entire page. This could be as simple as making a tiled pattern of square photos, with the repetition of color and subject material giving the page impact. Or it may be a row of tags across the base of a page making up a title or quote. Repetition is fun to experiment with. And if you decide you need three photographs precisely the same, its straightforward to get them copied.

Dynamics



Dynamics is created by placing all the elements in your page in such a way that they create a sense of movement. If you shut your eyes, then open them and see what element of the page your eye is drawn to first, this is the dominant component. If your eyes are then led round the page and take in all the elements one by one, this is dynamic.
