Tips and Tricks: CLUSTERING :)

Post by nun69 »

so you want to know all about clustering...well really it isn't as hard as it looks


1. put all the lements you would like on your page {if you are using paper don't glue them down yet}

2. for the digi gals, duplicate and resize some of the same elements

3. now take and arrange the elements the way you want them on your page {paper girls, don't glue yet :) }

4. now put your pictures where you want them and rearrange your elements to your liking

5. I like to put elements in between my letters and around my photos and border of page {for the paper gals, you can take your elements off the page as well, just cut them where they woudl overlap your paper}

6. paper gals ...GLUE GLUE GLUE!

7. digi gals, arrange and resize yoru elements to your liking

8. VIOLA...clustering done!



here is an example

Image

I took the ribbon through my letters and then took and placed flowers and other elements throughout my title and under and over the photos



Image



here I just arranged the different houses, leaves and other elements around my photograph



Image

another example I just kept piling and piling on the elements down the left side of the page until it was pleasing to the eye....then I repeated a few of those elements on the right side of the page to give you a balanced look....



so give it a try!!!!

Thanks for tips. Since most of my LOs are "flat", I think I need to work on my embellishment groupings.
