Start Here | Design Formulas For Memory Keeping

With over 20 years of memory keeping experience, Ali Edwards has told a lot of stories and most of them started with a blank page. 

In Start Here: Design Formulas For Memory Keeping Ali will be sharing her tried + true design formulas that have helped her tell hundreds (if not thousands) of stories over the years. Using her vast catalog of completed memory keeping projects (including traditional scrapbook layouts, pocket pages, and notebooks), Ali will help remove some of the guess work out of the process of starting with a blank page/pocket/notebook and encourage/inspire you to be the boss of your stories. During the workshop Ali will use past projects as examples + create new projects to reinforce the core concepts. 

Ali's background in graphic design + her years of teaching experience come together for this workshop to give you a solid starting place in your own memory keeping adventures. 

This workshop will be broken down into three lessons: 

• LESSON ONE: Design Formulas (the formulas that Ali uses over + over again and the reasons why)
• LESSON TWO: Design Principles (the design principles that Ali uses over + over again and the reasons why)
• LESSON THREE: Putting The Lessons Into Practice (includes process videos from Ali creating new projects that demonstrate ideas from the previous lessons)

The goal for this workshop? Create a resource of ideas for you to refer back to again and again as you tell the stories of your life!

Please note: If you have attended our in-person Story Camp in the past some of this content will be similar to what was offered during the design lesson. The content has been updated since our time together at camp and adapted for this style of classroom.
