Plan your page

sAnother important thing I discovered (well I guess many of you already know it, but I'm a newbie so everything is new for me) is that to plan your page before making it is something really useful. It happened to me some times that I had imagine a really cool page but when I started making it I forgot some details about it.

The next thing I did was to draw the pages I would imagine. It was so much easier then, because I could just take a look at the paper and follow it exactly as it was originally. The other thing that was really useful was to "try" the plan I had for the page. What I mean is that before pasting everything I would put everything on the page (as it was planed) but without pasting it, and so if it didn't looked as nice as I had imagine I would just move everything until I liked it.

There you can see how I tried my page plan. I first put the pictures (with out pasting them) to see if I like how they looked, then again with out pasting anything I put the papers and embellishment to see if I liked them too. Then you can see the final result of the page, when everything is pasted and finished.
