Straight Lines + Curves = Great Design

Straight lines love nothing better than to be paired up with some curves to make for a great page design. That’s exactly what Pattie Knox did when she designed the great template I’ve chosen for this week’s Template Challenge. There’s room for everything: pictures, patterned paper, and journaling.

Here’s how two of our Creative Team members and I used this fun template. I love the bright colors and papers Kari used to showcase her pictures of her son’s birthday:

Brittany (brittanylane) modified the template to make it her own and scrap a photo of her recent trip to Stone Mountain:

I flipped the template to accommodate my pictures and added a couple more circles of patterned paper. That’s the beauty of a template – use it like it is or change it all around.
