Die Cut Week: Sentiments That Rock!

  
     Titling doesn't just need to be for layouts and mini albums, you can use it on your cards as well! Try thinking out of the box to make your titles take center stage in your cards.
I chose a fun quote from the movie, "Never Been Kissed," typed it into my Silhouette machine's software program using various fonts and then die cut it. To add some pizazz some of the words are the negagative, some words are applied to a banner strip and some words directly to the card.
 I love layers! Lots of it going on here. I layered a block of patterned paper, then fussy cut flowers and adhered them to the block of patterned paper. After that I trimmed strips of patterned paper and adhere those to the card, and finally layered the title to the card using foam tape to create some dimension.
I think that I am in love with this card. Splendor is a GORGEOUS line from GCD Studios. 
Another fun idea for incorporating titles into your cards would be to choose a sentiment, die cut the letters on patterned paper and then punch out and adhere to card. Ombre's are super HOT right now, and really make the title on your card sparkle!
Add some foam tape to some of the dots for some much needed dimension!
Thanks for stopping by! I hope that you're inspired to create some new cards featuring titling as your focal point.
