The Deconstucted Layouts

Welcome to my Deconstructed Layouts! A series of simple tutorials about how my layouts are made. Each one focuses on a technique you can easily use on your own layouts and projects. You won't need anything fancy or any special tools. Pretty much everything I use is stuff you will have in your supply already. So let's get started!
