Hi ,
 
Inspiration is everywhere.
 
When putting together a scrapbook page last month, I stumbled upon a great reminder to think outside the box.
 
The inspiration I found was staring right at me in one of the photographs on my page. It was a reminder that great ideas - for titles, for layouts, for wisdom - can be found everywhere . . . even on the side of a pool!
 
So, next time you are out and about, or even sitting in your favorite chair sipping tea, take notice of the creativity surrounding you.
 
Make sure and check out the quick Plain to Fancy tip below. Have a great week.

From Plain to Fancy -- Quick Letter Switcheroo

I will often use two different fonts in the completion of one title. But, it rarely occurs to me to try using two fonts in the completion of one word.
 
If you are looking for something that will jazz up your next scrapbook page without much effort, this tip might be just what you need.
 
 
Try replacing just one letter (usually the first letter) in your title with a fancier font. It’s an easy concept to grasp, but there is a trick to it that will help things flow better.
  • Type out a title.
  • Mask away the letter you wish to replace. Learn about layer masks.
  • Type the replacement letter on a new layer and move it into position.
Here’s how that would look in the Layers panel.
