Jeanette logs in creating a page-modal popup login box. There is a close button the popup as well as a Cancel button, both of which will return focus to the homepage in case they clicked on "log in" by accident.
Page-modal popups prevent the user from doing unexpected actions aside from the current action (like logging in), but also require the user to navigate their mouse cursor to the popup to interact with its fields. So, for example, we could've used a drop-down accordion-like panel that appears when the "Log In" button is clicked. That way, the mouse cursor is already in the vicinity of the login fields and so it would make it easy to navigate to them, as opposed to the modal popup in the center of the screen.

Jeanette sees her card list, which has no cards currently. If the card list is populated, it will display all cards available with a small thumbnail preview of the card. She can access account options on the right, which is similar to how the homepage was laid out, all controls and commands on the right. This is consistent with the homepage and is used (mostly) all across the entire website. The message in the center of the card list lets Jeanette go straight into making a card.

Clicking on "Contributors" opens a page-modal popup showing contributors to the card via their email. It also displays their permissions. You can edit by directly typing in a row and selecting permissions via a drop-down list. The current entry is highlighted. Jeanette sends an invite to Max here.
It may be a bit slow to manage large groups of contributors since the user must edit each contributor individually with regards to permissions.

Max is editing text using the text tool (depressed in the tool menu). A typography bar appears showing common text options. The text edit box is dotted to separate it from other objects on the canvas, and is adorned with resize handles.

Xindi goes onto the page and fills out her message, and decides to save it for later editing. Jeanette goes back on to Eloha to compile everyone's messages.
