Solid design is not about building a masterpiece, work of art, or competition piece. Solid design is a collection of wise and progressive visual choices.
What happens when you marry graphic design principles with scrapbooking? You create the Scraphic Design process, a set of steps beginning with blank canvas and finishing with a kick-butt, completed page using your polished design sense. Once you know the whys and hows of this process, you can adapt it to fit your crafting style.

This two-part series began with the Scraphic Design: Foundations class, a 4 week journey into the design process that covers creative inspiration, sketching techniques, principles of design and how to build dynamic page structures. Class concluded with an in-depth critique of each student’s work-in-progress project.

Now, rejoin Tiffany Tillman for the second part of the series, Scraphic Design: Core. For an additional four weeks, add the complexities of layering, color usage, pattern alchemy, element addition, text work and realistic shadowing to the journey. Class concludes with a final critique on your finished class assignments. As promised, you will end at the destination of kick-butt pages and have developed a new, polished design sense.

What is Critique Week?
The design process just isn't complete without a fair review of your works in progress and completed assignments. During critique week, or anytime thereafter, Tiffany will provide an in-depth, written critique of student's classwork.

Class Presentation
Class content is presented via weekly video recordings, which you can access and watch at your leisure once class begins. Also included is a PDF reference workbook, private access to class forum and gallery, and three LIVE weekly demonstrations.
