“I loved the big bold type on Cynthea Sandoval’s “Adorable You” layout in the spring issue (page 69) and I wanted to create a similar look on my page.
I used a block font to create the letters, cutting some from patterned paper and others from photos to create my title. I added small embellishments like enamel shapes, paper clips, and rub-ons to the letters to give them some extra detail and dimension. Thanks, Cynthea, for the inspiration to create this page!

Those layouts by Cynthea and Lisa are so cool - love that the title uses up the whole page and how the pictures in the shapes of letters ... I would love to try that but feel a little intimidated, lol! Sweet prizes by two of my favoured companies, Doodlebug and Pebbles. Their lines are so sweet and fun!
