Free Hybrid Layout Class - Starts Today

1:25 AM Posted In , Edit This 3 Comments »
I made a hybrid layout yesterday, and so I decided to offer this layout as a class. Each day this week, I'll give you a simple task...and each day we'll add to the layout. By the end of the week, you'll have a beautiful hybrid layout. Maybe I'll share a sneak peek of my layout tomorrow, if you want.

Hybrid Layout Class Task #1

Create a digital ATC {artist trading card} card and print it out. Set this aside someplace safe to be used on your layout by the end of the week. If you want, add a rubon to your ATC.

You can either create the trading card from scratch or you can use a pre-designed card. See the links below.


If you share your ATC, please link it up here for all to enjoy!

Tomorrow: Hybrid Layout Class Task #2
