Design Tip: Blueprints as Backdrops

Blueprints don’t have to be used only for photo placement. In this Design Tip, explore how filling all the openings of a Blueprint with coordinating papers or colors can transform it into a custom background layer. By filling the structure underneath your page and placing photos, journaling, and embellishments on top of the Blueprint, you add depth, texture, and visual interest while keeping your photos as the focal point. This technique works beautifully for both bold, graphic designs and softer, story-driven layouts.
