My last assignment for September for the GIS Creative Team was called “Voice.” The assignment: Make a page in which the “voice” of one of your subjects comes through. There was a great lesson in the Masterful Scrapbook Design issue on “Make it Mean” that was a good reference. Here’s my page:
F***ing Awesome by Heather Awsumb | Supplies: So Fine Collection, Spot Dot Brushes No 4, Surf Lagoon Element Pack, Woodside Jangle Element Pack, Little Layette Element Pack by Katie Pertiet; 10,080 Minutes by Traci Reed; Paper Piercing Stitching Holes by Sahlin Studio; These Walls Kit, Carson Park Kit by One Little Bird Designs; In Good Company by Paislee Press; This One Brushes & Stamps by Ali Edwards; Rough Typewriter font.
I mentioned in my write-up that I thought this was a difficult assignment as a single person without kids. I think voice is most natural for people who are scrapbooking the personalities of their kids and husbands. I don’t do this frequently, so enjoyed thinking of how I could capture voice on a page. This page uses one of my favorite pictures from the Maseru Players Company masquerade ball back in June and documents one of my favorite moments from the night. The title comes straight from the mouth of my friend & I admit that I thought it was clever to add the stars to the title. The layout is based on lesson 2 of the Symmetry issue of Scrapbook Coach.
