Tips and Tricks - 6/27
Hey All!
Its my turn for your Tips and Tricks and this week and I thought it would be fun to focus on journaling. I was never really big into journaling on my pages when I first came on the scrapping scene. Now I have a hard time not journaling. My pages don’t feel as finished without it. I think there’s a misconception that journaling takes away from the design aesthetic of a page, but I whole heartedly disagree. Actually, I have fun experimenting with different journaling placement and figuring out how it can help play up the design. Journaling also adds something special to cherished photos and helps me remember exactly what I was thinking when I took that particular photo. Whether you think so or not, there will most likely come a time you look back and don’t remember. You can journal on the paper, on paper strips, journal tabs, embellishments, or even on the photo itself. The possibilities are endless.
To help get you going, I thought it would be fun to share some of the awesome font resources out there. Places to get the funnest fonts and most are free sites!! Who can pass up free fonts.
