Dude! Size Matters!

Dude! The size of the elements you put on your page really matters!

Mixing some really big elements while at the same time cropping other things small helps focus on what's important.



The only reason this page exists is because Harry Truman was president. Having a giant presidential seal (clipped from the gift store bag) clarifies the questions of "What?" and "Why?" you made this page.

A small seal wouldn't have had the same kind of impact. Size really does matter in deciding what goes on the page.

Dude! Go big or go home!

Dude! It's in the Bag!

Dude! The perfect scraps are often just sitting in the gift shop for free. Dude! Look at the bag!

I know that you don't even want to get a bag when you shop. You just want to get those new power tools home from the hardware store without all the fuss and bother. But when you're out someplace you're going to scrapbook, lay claim to that bag. The treasures aren't just in it, they're on it.



All but one of the scraps on the above page were simply clipped from the design on the bag from the gift shop. Perfect elements are all around you.

Dude! Open your eyes!
