Multi Font Titles | Digital Scrapbooking Words on Wednesday

Hello Everyone! Need to add a punch to your digital scrapbooking layout? Try using multiple fonts in your title. You can pick “matchy-matchy” or “not-matchy” at all. Let your creativity shine and make those titles pop. Let me show you what I mean.

First up is Kariyn Lisa. Isn’t that picture of her daughter holding the fish so darn cute? I think she enjoyed the boating portion of their activity more than the fishing part. Kairyn used In the Pocket {Strips}, Gone Fishin & Gone Fishin Word Art & On the Water. Wouldn’t it be interesting to jump 20 years into the future and see if her daughter (now a Mom) would take her daughter fishing?

Next we have Jen G (grahamlikethecrackers) She used About A Boy and CU Dynamic Alpha Doodles. That little guy is going to break some hearts with that blonde hair and blue eyes. Oh, and those dimples! Love how the 3 vehicles look like they just drove off the banner. Great use of 2 large pictures and multiple fonts.

Melissa (pretty peaches) has our last layout for today. She used Gone Fishing, Darling Stitched-a-bet, & Sew Crafty. The wood shutters are a great way to “frame” the picture and the strip of lined paper really creates a stage for her clustering. She used a regular alpha and then placed the alpha stitches precisely where they needed to be. The fonts made me want to look closer at the layout. Last, I love the tape measure in the cluster at the top. Who doesn’t need to measure their award-winning fish?

Perfect Pairs: About A Boy & Gone Fishing | Digital Scrapbooking Kit Combinations

Hello Friends! Today we are looking at two of Chelle’s kits to see how well they work together: About A Boy and Gone Fishin’!  We challenged our team to ramp up their creativity and show us some great digital scrapbooking layouts using these 2 marvelous kits. Look how realistic the rainbow trout looks!

Look at this sunshiny layout by Erica (stanworth). You can’t beat a little boy and his stick. If there’s water nearby, you know that little guy is going to find it and a stick makes it all the more fun. Find some worms that have drowned and you have little boy utopia! I like the way the green looks like a stage and then banner hooks into the “drapes.” Her journaling is awesome as it wraps around the “Stick.” That little guy pulls me right in, even though I only see his back!

Next we have a layout by Carol (Iowan). The fish, the bow & arrow, the clusters, and those hints of color to go with the browns. Carol skillfully added charm to this layout by incorporating bits & pieces of About A Boy with the fish and water drop of Gone Fishin’. Even though Dad doesn’t appear in the picture, you can bet Dad and Grandpa (& Grandma) are right there encouraging their little guy to do his best.

Mel used a great picture of her son, Quentin,  for her layout. Isn’t that a cute way to show he’s 13? The strings and clusters are perfect. The paper strips and the  flowers make this LO very nice and “boy” approved.

Leslie (lab130) just e-mailed me another LO. Oh, this little guy has stolen my heart. He needs a hug from his newly adopted Aunt Sari. Those eyes…. OK back to the subject at hand. Leslie used scallops to perfection. With that little car right next to his face, you can tell, he’s ready to go drive around on all those fun scalloped edges. I can almost hear the car crashing as it reaches the end of the road. Great use of the blue eyes with the blue paper. The wood grain paper is a solid base that pulls it all together. Cutie pie! What a great title.LBeahm-perfect-pairs-aboutaboy-goingfishin

Here are the links to the kits used in these layouts. (Here’s a funny. Some of our ladies used Something Fishy and some used Gone Fishin’. We decided to just show you “3” perfect pairs. LOL

Hope we have given you some great ideas. Perhaps you wouldn’t have put these two (or three) kits together, but now that you see how they work together, I bet you’ll have some great ideas. Scrap them and put them in the gallery. I enjoy seeing what you create. Hugs!

Friday Freebie! Gone Fishin’ Stacked Paper | Digital Scrapbooking Freebies

Hi eveyone! I hope you had a great Christmas. I love Christmas and decorating the tree and my house for the holidays, but after Christmas it feels so good to put the Christmas stuff away and get back to normal. I scrapped a LOT of Christmas pages this year and so I was ready to get back some “normal” scrapping. I was working on some photos from last summer when we were up in the mountains and my boys were fishing. So, for today’s Friday Freebie I have a stacked paper for you made with Chelle’s Gone Fishin’.

Happy New Year!
