Welcome to the fourth post in a series of SugarBabe Sundays where we examine the digital scrapbooking elements that we struggle with and ask the Shoppe\u2019s creative team for ideas. In October we looked at four ways feathers can be used on a layout<\/a>. November saw us focusing on doodles and hand-drawn elements<\/a>. And last month, we began our deep-dive into the different ways we can create titles on our scrapbook pages<\/a>. That’s such a huge topic, we were only able to cover the first part of it in last month’s SugarBabe Sunday. So today, we’re going to pick it back up and finish our discussion of Title Work<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

Our SugarBabes create their layout titles in six different ways. They:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. use the title from a template,<\/li>\n
  2. use a pre-made journaling card as a title,<\/li>\n
  3. use pre-made word art,<\/li>\n
  4. use one or more pre-made alphabets,<\/li>\n
  5. use a font,<\/li>\n
  6. or mix, match, and combine word art, alphabets, fonts and\/or elements.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Last month’s post, Title Work I<\/a>, focused on the first four methods on that list. Let’s do a quick review…<\/p>\n

    1. Use the title from a template.<\/h1>\n

    Many templates in the Sweet Shoppe<\/a> come with gorgeous, pre-designed titles that are ready for you to customize by clipping patterned papers or applying layer styles to the title layers. Here are some recent examples from SugarBabes Sarah and Tammy:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    2. Use a pre-made journaling card as a title.<\/h1>\n

    Journaling cards can make quick and easy titles for your scrapbook layout. Here are two recent examples from SugarBabes Jaye and Kjersti:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    \"\"\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    3. Use pre-made word art.<\/h1>\n

    Why start from scratch every time when the kit you’re working with already comes with beautiful word art? If it’s a good fit for the title you want on your page, you can use pre-made word art just like SugarBabes Kim B. and Sheri did on these recent layouts:<\/p>\n

    \"\"\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    4. Use one or more pre-made alphabets.<\/h1>\n

    Pre-made alphabet elements harken back to the days of paper scrapbooking and sheets of alpha stickers. They are a classic way of creating a title on your layout, and the best part is, unlike those physical sticker sheets, with digital, you never run out of letters! Here are recent layouts from SugarBabes Dalis and Jacinda with titles they created using pre-made alphabets:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    \"\" \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    Remember, to go deep into these four methods of building titles – using the title from a template, using a pre-made journaling card, using pre-made word art, and using one or more pre-made alphabets – check out last month’s SugarBabe Sunday post, Title Work 1<\/a>. Now, let’s pick up where we left off and talk about the next method our SugarBabes use when creating titles on their scrapbook pages…<\/p>\n

    5. Use a font.<\/h1>\n

    When it comes to my own scrapbook layouts, fonts are – hands-down – my personal favorite method of creating titles. Perhaps it’s because I’m a self-professed font junkie with a bit of a “collecting problem” (*cough* over 13,000 *cough*<\/em>) but I prefer to think it’s because when you combine a unique typeface with layer styles, the possibilities are endless!<\/p>\n

    Let’s look at five different ways of using a font to create a title:<\/p>\n
