Full Version: Background colors in album pages

Would you combine black background pages in the same album with white background pages or even color pages?

I guess I could play, but I'm not sure I would trust myself to see. But, do you combine? Or does an album look better with all white background pages, or all black background pages.

Thanks!

Hi, Ksenia

I think you can combine any combination you like depending on the images, the arrangement of elements, and the graphic treatments. I like to stick to a particular theme or color scheme, such as all black, all white or all color using complimentary tones, but black with white can be combined sensibly, and white with colors can be beautiful.

The success of the combinations depends so much on the design skills of the designer.

I like to mix a little, but you need to keep to a theme for the whole package. Often times I will create a colored background using a detail image. By ghosting, darkening and using blurs you have an amazing pallete to work from
.

Good luck.
