Scrapbook Design Idea | Covering a Large Shape in Smaller Pieces

One of my go-to design concepts that I LOVE is covering a large shape in smaller pieces. It's one of those designs that I will use over and over again!

For this particular layout I started with layering two patterned paper stars together to serve as the base for the design.

Then I cut several small angled pieces out a variety of different colors and patterns. Those angled pieces are then arranged in three rows across the star base creating a kind of chevron-style pattern.

One of the reasons I love this design concept so much is how easy it is to adapt and customize. And, it works great with 6x6" paper pads too!

For the base you can use a:

• star

• heart

• circle

• square

• rectangle

• diamond

• triangle

Then for the details on top, there are almost endless opportunities! You can:

• create a pattern with strips or squares

• cover it in shapes like diamonds, squares, circles, hexagons, etc.

• arrange themed elements on it

• cover the whole thing, or...

• cover just a section of it

It's one of those concepts that can be used over and over with different results every single time!
