Layout Background Tip

By Babi Kind
 

#G45Tip: Create your own background with Graphic 45 Patterns & Solids papers and stamps and stencils.  I chose the smoother blue paper and created texture with stencils and stamps; and I used white stamper to make that texture softer.

#G45Tip: Break up images and busy backgrounds with some negative space. I cut the clouds on white paper in the Silhouette, to "break" the color of the paper a little and leave the layout with more volume.
