Build a small repeat tile first. Keep the motif group inside a clear square before duplicating it.
SCRAPBUJOA grid is orderly, a half-drop shifts each row, and a tossed layout feels more relaxed. Choose one.
Use one hero motif, one support motif and two small fillers. Repeat the palette to keep the paper cohesive.
A motif leaving the left edge must reappear at the same height on the right. Check top and bottom too.
Place a photo block and a writing area over the tile. Reduce contrast where text needs to stay readable.
Export a test tile at the intended 12 × 12 size. Inspect seams before making the full sheet.
