Design Your Life 2.0 (Self Paced Workshop)

Design Your Life 2.0 is class designed to help scrapbookers master and apply graphic design principles to create classic, well-designed layouts. Design is the key to great looking pages and it can be studied, learned and added to your tool box of scrapbooking skills.

Throughout this self-paced workshop, I’ll share pages from my years as a scrapbooker that demonstrate the reasons why they work and how design works on multiple levels to create beautiful, meaningful layouts.

Design is not a new-fangled crafty trend! This class is designed to immerse you in the study of timeless, classic principles of design. It doesn’t matter if your style isn’t the same as mine. Design doesn’t care if you’re shabby chic or the most minimal memory keeper on the block. It has parameters and rules and when you study them and apply them, the result is better looking pages.

WHAT YOU’LL GET:

  • 25 video lessons
  • 8 layered templates (in both 8.5 x 11 and 12 x 12) for class assignments for use on either hybrid or digital pages (a $27 standalone value)
  • Digital cut files and fussy cut files for use with class assignments
  • Printable PDF elements to complete all layout assignments (no Photoshop needed!)
  • Color theory summaries of all class assignment samples
  • Immediate access to all five lessons of this class.
  • Step-by-step beginner level instructional videos in Photoshop Elements to help in the hybrid completion of the assignments
  • PDF handouts recapping all weekly course concepts, assignments and step-by-step digital instruction
  • Assignment sketches with all measurements in both 8.5 x 11 and 12 x 12
  • Lesson specific supply lists with links to what I am using
  • Email access to me for questions and support
  • Social media and blog buttons for our class

WHAT YOU’LL MAKE:

  • 8 single page layouts, either in 8.5 x 11 or 12 x 12 that demonstrate the design principles in each weekly lesson

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  • How balance, repetition, unity, space, emphasis/contrast and typography contribute to successful page design
  • Digital tips and tricks on each weekly assignment for using Photoshop Elements to complete your hybrid pages
  • How to see a layout with a critical eye and identify what is or is not working

LAYOUTS WE’RE MAKING IN THIS CLASS

Here are the sneak peeks of the eight layouts we are making in this class. I have included sketches for every assignment in both 12 x 12 and 8.5 x 11. All of my layouts are hybrid pages in that I used my computer and other tools to complete each layout. You are not required to use your computer for any of the assignments! You can use whatever scrapbook supplies you have on hand to complete the layouts. No assignment in this class requires any photo larger than a 4 x 6 print. The layouts with “HELLO” in the title use free fonts and are fully customizable. The only template title that is not customizable is the Time Flies layout and the “hello’ script on the Hello Senior page. You can create any theme you like for your pages, or work with the themes I am suggesting. Any questions on these templates/designs, email me and I’m happy to answer. These layouts will help to put the weekly concepts into practice.

 

As with every class here at CZ Classes, I offer a money back guarantee. If you’re not happy with the class, I will refund your purchase. I stand behind every class I offer and want you to have the best experience possible!
