COMPILE RANDOM PHOTOS
Design by Shannon Zickel
Write between the lines. Looking at the old photos really inspired me to write about my nephew’s life so far, so I used lined paper to keep my handwriting neat and to focus attention on the photos.
Use contrasting shapes. To complement the boxy photos, I embellished with round accents that included the dates of the photos. This allowed me to add more information without overpowering the images.
