Happy Monday! It's May here, and I've got an idea to share with you.
I love writing on my layouts and sometimes I even create my titles by hand too. One way I like to do this that is faster than hand-cutting a title is to use a ultra fine and more medium tip journaling pen, along with a smooch ink color of my choice.
First, you need to draw your title very lightly with the ultra fine tip pen. Do NOT worry about getting it perfect! Go over it a few times and make adjustments to how it looks. Once you're satisfied, outline with the thicker tip pen.
Now use smooch ink (or other ink or pen of your choosing) to accent the letters. Take your time, and don't worry about perfection - a little smudge here or whoops there is totally fine.
Here's a St. Patrick's Day card that I created with the March Frugal Fab kit using this technique. I have so much fun finding ways to save money and get extra creative with my on-hand stash. I hope you enjoy!
