Page Planning Tips and Techniques!
Print pictures - Print a BUNCH at a time in whatever size you need/want them (4X6, 5X7, whatever)- I like to print out 4 inches worth
-
Pick/Design a layout - use a sketch, use a post-it to draw a picture whatever - based on this you know how many pictures will fit on a 2 page spread. Make sure to have something written down here - so you don't forget your plan when you get to the crop.
-
Pick your paper - again - you have an idea what your layout will look like - get your cardstock base, patterned paper, extra cardstock for mats/accents. Use small post-its to make notes for specific papers if you think you'll need them.
-
Pick your embellishments - buttons, ribbon, embellishments that go with the paper line etc. Based on your layout design - pack what you need.
-
Title/Journaling? Do you need to cut something with your electronic diecut machine? I cut these things at home - saves a LOT of packing space ;) Also sticker letters or certain pens to write with. I pack the sticker letters right in with the layout.
-
Packing it all up ;) I use an art bin to pack all the flat things - paper, cardstock, stickers, titles etc - I use cardboard or page protectors as dividers - I stack my art bin so that the layout on top is the next one to work on. Chunky embellishments like buttons, ribbon, brads etc etc all go in together in a snapware container - I use a post it on my layout design (with the paper) to help me remember what I wanted to use where.
-
Tools - if I need certain tools for the layout - punches, inks, crop-a-dile, etc - I keep a list in a notebook of things to pack.
