Let's take a look at more examples of designing with white space!

Barbara starts with a white card base, a white panel, and a white oval. All eyes are on the center of her lovely design and the rest of the card allows the focal point to shine. 

One of the keys to white space designs is allowing the eye to rest in your design. Keisha's card has a lot of depth, texture, and sparkle, but the white-on-white background has a certain quietness to it. It's like you can almost hear the silence of the snow falling in the woods. 

And white space doesn't have to be white! In Yoonsun's design, she started with a simple kraft background and focuses on the silly and festive llama in the center of her card. The red patterned paper at the bottom of the card base gives the design both weight and balance.
