Hi Everybody! It's Becky here today sharing an easy and thrifty idea for titlework. I love to make the most of my supplies, so I'm always trying to think of ways to use every little bit! With this idea we'll be using the negative, already used sticker letters you have and the last little drop or two of your Sprinklers.
Start with grabbing whatever alpha stickers you have sitting around. Trim around the letter you need and adhere the negative to your cardstock.
Then, take a black fine tip pen and trace around the letter. Leave the sticker in place and take a Q-tip and dip it in the bottom of your nearly empty Sprinkler bottle and dab the inside of your letter. It takes very little and you can actually make one little dip to fill in several letters. As you finish a letter, peel the sticky back off and move to the next letter. The color dries quickly and there isn't any problem with smearing.
As I was thinking of what I'd like to share with you, I took a peek in a few of my inspiration journals and had done a similiar title in one of my books, which I liked very much. I thought it would adapt well for a layout. Here's the page from my journal:
I drew the letters freehand, which works well too.
Here's the final photo of the finished layout:
I hope this idea spurs you on to try something new! I'd love to see what you come up with, so feel free to post your take in our Flickr gallery. Have a great day!
