Yes, it is Saturday. Well, I guess I just can't get myself going in the new year! LOL
Here are five different ways to make titles more interesting:
1. Use different colors to make certain words stand out:
The break between the green patterned paper and the brown CS on this page made it easy to make a two-tone title:
2. Do the title vertically: Sometimes I actually turn the page so the title appears to be at the top, glue it, and then I turn it the right way.
3. Use multiple fonts. Try mixing stickers, chipboard letters, and rub-ons in one title.
I used 5 different fonts on this — cut the title with my Silhouette:
I used vinyl, glittered chipboard, and plain chipboard letters to make this title:
On this page I used small sticker letters, felt letters, and glitter chipboard letters from three different brands!
On this page I actually mixed two different diecut fonts, using a different font for the capital letters on “Christmas Baby”. Then I used a really small diecut font to create the first part of the title:
Here I used a BIG font for the main title and did a subtitle in handwriting and a really small diecut font:
4. Center the title around a line on the page. I used the edge of the blue cardstock on this page to create the title around. I actually scraplifted this page from the “Scrap Simple” idea book.
I used the line of the photo on this page as a base for my rub-on title:
5. Set your title around an object. Here I used the snowman printed on the page as a base for my title:
My title on this page just follows the photo:
I stamped a jounaling post and that made the perfect path for my title!
I rotated the design above to create the page below, using the journaling spot as a guide for the top of the letters in the title:
Here I followed the curve of the circle on the page:
I did the same thing as above just vertically:
I wrapped this title around a journaling spot as well:
