Scrapbook Techniques: Layered
Title Letters Using Templates
If you have already created layered lettering titles for your pages many time over, and are looking for a more advanced challenge, try paper piecing the layers. In the sample below, I used the Kindergarten Upper and Lower Tracers from EK Success as the base for each of the letters. Then I added additional layers to give each letter an “animated” look. Use the lettering template to help you create each layer to the exact shape of the letters. For example, for the “M”:
1) Trace an Upper “M” from black cardstock.
2) Before you cut the letter out, add two circles (can be traced from other parts of the template, or trace around a circle punched piece) to the top of the letter. Then cut out the whole thing as one piece.
3) Trace and cut an Upper “M” from red cardstock.
4) Cut the red “M” in half and adhere the lower portion to your black “M.”
5) Add two small punched yellow/orange circles to finish the letter.
Continue, using your creativity to decorate each letter. You can follow a logo found at Disney Clipart.com for color and theme ideas for this project.
Tip I: Using the lettering template to make this title makes it significantly faster and easier than simply paper piecing it from scratch.
Tip II: Other words look great in this style. Try your child’s name, the name of the park you visited, or even the date that you traveled.
