Start2Finish: Eclipse
For this Start2Finish, I’m creating a layout called Eclipse - and this time, the design does the storytelling. We weren’t in the path of totality, and I didn’t have dramatic sky photos. Instead of wishing for more, I leaned into what I did have and let intentional design carry the experience. This layout is about using symbolism, typography, and journaling to turn limited photos into a powerful story.

Bright Idea 480: Vertical Stories
This design uses a series of vertical strips as the foundation, each topped with a framed photo and accented with coordinated embellishments. The strips vary in height, color, and texture to create visual movement across the page, while consistent spacing keeps the layout balanced. Layered frames add dimension, and journaling boxes tucked beneath the outer strips help anchor the design. The result is a structured yet artistic composition that lets your photos and clusters shine.
