Letter stickers are a fabulous way to create fun titles that really stand out, but every so often you might find yourself without the letters you need. A creative option to try is to use your leftover packaging from your favorite letter stickers to create fun a fun outline title.
1. Draw title on layout using the negative spaces of letter packaging as a stencil.
2. Trace over letters using a darker pen to make the title stand out.
Go On, Make a Splash by Kim Watson as seen in the July/August 2011 issue of Creating Keepsakes magazine, page 21.
Your challenge today is to give this technique a try! If you don't have any letter sticker backings, you can create the same effect with
- Stencils
- Traced die-cuts
- a stroke around your letters in Photoshop
- Outline fonts
Good luck!
