There is not much I can add about this layout.
Although the journaling is far from being verbose, it tells the whole story.
I simply love this little guy. Currently 7-year-old.
I just love him!

Technique
The Grid
Before saying anything, please note that the instructions are more of a “do as I say” than “do as I did”…
I use the scoring board for anything that involves aligment, e.g. grids, journaling lines, placement, ets…
- First insert the piece you are going to build the grid on and find its center. LIGHTLY score that line.
- Then decide how many objects you want placed and score in even increments from the center (that works for odd numbers).
- Flip the piece, 90° and repeat.
- Position each punch out at the intersection of 2 score lines.
My mistake was that I didn’t start from the middle and ended up with redundant score lines. Not only that, but I had to score deeper on my actual score lines, so I can tell which ones are the actual guides… Which is why I forewarned you guys “do as I say not as I did”.
