Welcome back to “Where Scrapbook Ideas Come From.” Earlier lessons covered the design principles of Emphasis and Repetition. Today we’re talking about another principle: Alignment.
There are many big and small ways to incorporate alignments. If you’d like to think some more on this, take a look at these two articles to get you thinking about more approaches.
- Strengthen your scrapbook page design with alignments (Take a look at the layout called “Riding Late” and the many ways in which alignments are incorporated there).
- Justification that strengthens scrapbook page design

These are wonderful. Thanks so much. I think I missed Lesson 3 though. Anyway to locate that one? I don’t want to miss a thing!
Sorry I posted before I read, so I found lesson 3. Thanks
oops! glad you found it — i’m putting a recap with links at the bottom of each lesson’s email.
Thanks for these mini-lessons! I love all your examples too. I find I am especially drawn to “edge alignment” layouts with strong lines.
This is being a very informative, interesting and enjoyable series. Thank you.
Really enjoying the series!
am totally enjoying these lessons!! thanks so much!
You’re welcome!
I look forward to each lesson with great anticipation. I realize, through your lessons, that you have to build upon each step as you apply each necessary concept. (I can’t wait to put it in practice.)
Great info again!
Thank you Debbie
another great lesson
Hi Debbie,
Putting in practice everything I’ve learned so far and having a ball. Today’s lesson on alignment and the examples shown have given me great ideas. Preparing a page right now. Thank you once again.
Take care,
Patricia
yay! love hearing this.
This has been my favorite lesson yet! I loved your centered aligned layout. Total “a-ha” moment for me, to see how you offset the centering with the embellishments. Off to go give it a try myself!
PS Found you via Twitter and am so glad I did!
yay for twitter and “a-ha” moments!
Great lesson and I LOVE the layout “Fast Forward”! I hope you don’t mind if I scraplift it – it’s just lovely!! Thanks again for the lessons!
