Handcutting a Title for a Scrapbook Page
Next up with my August 2020 Best of Both Worlds kit: something with a custom title that is NOT cut with a Silhouette or other die cutter! For this project, I revisited a technique I used often many, many years ago: reversing and printing a title on the computer, then cutting it out with scissors. I used this font to mimic the title of the Friends television series to match photos from Friends Fest. I’ve scrapbooked several photos of this day trip already, but that BFFs piece on the Simple Stories cut-apart paper just shouted for my Friends-themed photos!
This page was inspired by a Pagemaps sketch in the Summer 2020 issue of Scrapbook and Cards Today magazine, but changed a bit because I wanted to add a 4×6 portrait photo into the mix of the small squares in a grid.
