Word art is a treasure, not only because it's super cool, but because it's so versatile. Next time you adorn your scrapbook page with word art, give these simple ideas a try:
Lower the opacity. In the example above, I lowered the layer opacity of the middle word to 50%. This will give the word a soft overlayed look. It's one of my favorite and most used techniques.
Create a sticker. For the third word, I added a 10 pixel outside stroke, simplified the layer style, then added a custom shadow.
Word art treated like this will create a dynamic presence on your page. It's perfect for clustering and adding depth.
So, I encourage you to set your creativity free this week and think outside the box with what you have to work with. See you in the galleries!
