Start With a Reading Edge on a Small Gift

Decide how the piece will be read

Before arranging a name, choose the edge or corner that a person will naturally use to orient the gift. That simple decision gives the artwork a stable reading direction and makes a first preview easier to discuss.

Place a short line of text and one small visual element before adding decorative detail. Review the empty space around them at normal viewing size, then save the approved preview with a note describing the intended orientation.

Keep the first revision specific

If the layout needs changing, adjust one decision at a time: position, reading direction, or spacing. A focused revision creates a clearer record than several untracked alternatives.
