Design is something I used to really struggle with. However, after reading an article about using page elements in three's, creating pages became a lot easier. Using three's makes pages flow and gives them a "finished" look. I hope this concept helps you as much as it did me!

• embellishments,
  
• digital brushes,
  
• photos, and
  
• words or phrases.
