Linear Design! That's a fun one!!! and not as intimidating as some of the styles I've tackled so far.

Here's what I came up with. TFL.

I'm not sure I've seen many layouts like this. I love yours, but if I go with that, I'll end up just scraplifting you (not that that's a bad thing, definitely). Any chance you could find some more examples? :) I love your layout...it's so cool!!

Charlene, I started looking around and found this description....

I sometimes hear scrapbookers describe their scrapbooking style as “linear”. What I think they mean by this is that they tend to design with a lot of straight lines. More often than not, when a scrapper describes her style as “linear” there’s an element of apology implied, as if “linear” equates with “uncreative” or “uptight”.
Personally, I love straight lines in layouts. There’s something about the formal balance of a layout that’s comprised of several rectangular sections that I find very pleasing.

Other references I found used the words, clean, structured, straight lines...
hope that helps a little.
