This layout is a unique design, using a part circle pattern in the center with photos radiating out.
The background suites the subject matter with modern designs found on teenage clothing and the main picture is large and framed in a similar design.
In creating a digital layout from scratch, there are the same basic steps: design background paper, add photos, create photo mats or accent papers, add effects such as drop shadowing, create embellishments (if desired), and finish with titles and journaling. It’s up to you how you use those steps to define your own unique style. Some like clean graphic lines giving the look of a magazine ad, while others like the look of traditional paper-pieced layouts, with “paper”, embellishments, and the illusion of three-dimensions. The beauty of digital is so many techniques are at your disposal to give such varied looks.
This layout is fairly simple but has some artistic 3D flower motifs that add interest. The seperate layers of different background material also blend well with the overall design.
Both these layouts have ideas that you can use with your own photos to get great results.
