Design Your Life by Cathy Zielske is up and running,
and Week One introduced the idea of symmetry and asymmetry on scrapbook pages.
The first assignment was to produce a symmetrical layout using a grid design.
I used recent photos of The Boy Child to tell a story from over
twenty years ago. Isn’t it great when a photo from today sparks
remembrance of a story from yesterday?
Clicking on the first image should allow you to read the story.
{Look up Cockney rhyming slang if you’re not sure of the title.}
Assignment two was, as you’ve probably guessed, to produce an asymmetrical layout.
Hybrid and a ton of white space is not my usual style but I think it works.
My text could be better spaced and larger, but those will come with practice.
This isn’t the sort of layout I would usually put together,
so I feel I’ve already put a tick in the box just by attempting this assignment.
Both layouts are clear, easy to read, find the photos. I like a grid pattern to a layout for the photos & your example is perfect, ticks all those boxes & that bit of glitter in the title letters brings it to another level. You are star scrapper. I tried reading the High Barnet story with a Cockney accent (lol). Great photos of the TBC

I love these pages – as a Clean and Simple scrapper, your design and use of space and colour soothes my soul! I did this course first time round and absolutely loved it, and learned so much; hoping it is a great experience for you too. Golly, he is growing up. Just seen that adult jawline clearly for the first time.

Great layouts!! I posted my hybrid asymmetrical layout on my blog today, then created a digital one. Hoping to work on the symmetrical one tomorrow!
