Layout Design

One of SAS's big birthday events is a Layout Design Challenge, hosted by Candee (CanDesigns). Each week we are giving a tutorial about various scrapbook design techniques. Our challenge is to create a layout incorporating those techniques, then post them to a special gallery where we can receive comments and constructive criticism. By the end of the week, we have to post a final LO for judging. It is currently week 2, and I've already learned a lot!!

Here's a quick recap:

Week 1: Drop Shadows, Keywords & Designer Credits
Had to use the SAS Welcome Kit - "Feelin' Welcome" by JulieO

My first draft layout:
My final layout for judging:

Week 2: C.R.A.P. Layouts aka Principles of Design
Could use any kit, as long as it was a SAS designer. I used the Autumn Wind Alpha by CanDesigns, Sweater Weather by digiMom Designs, and Faded Bouquet by BooLand Designs

First draft layout:

My final judging layout:



Week 2 challenge ends at 11:59pm tomorrow, Saturday 9/20/08. At that point, we'll be assigned the week 3 challenge. I'll post those LOs sometime next week, and week 4 the following.

Feel free to leave me any comments or suggestions!! You can do so here on my blog, or head over to SAS and find them in the gallery.
