by Jessica



Here's the challenge details:

This week's challenge focuses on two of my favorite elements: pictures + typography. Your words can be such an unforgettable piece to your project.  They are almost as important to a scrapbook page as your photo.  This challenge is to motivate and inspire your typography skills - and get you thinking outside of the box regarding your titles and journaling. I want you to write on your photo(s) - yes ON your pictures!! Let's see how creative you can get with your pictures + typography.

Post your layout link in LAST WEEK's blog post.  Happy hodge-podging!

Happy Hodge Podge Monday!!  It's Liz here with a new challenge to kick off the month of April.  

This week's challenge focuses on two of my favorite elements: pictures + typography. Your words can be such an unforgettable piece to your project.  They are almost as important to a scrapbook page as your photo.  This challenge is to motivate and inspire your typography skills - and get you thinking outside of the box regarding your titles and journaling. I want you to write on your photo(s) - yes ON your pictures!! Let's see how creative you can get with your pictures + typography.

(an extra special thanks to Crissy for helping me draft the challenge description - thanks girl!!)

Here are some ideas that from Crissy:
type your text over photos in journaling style
use yoru text to clip out areas into the photo(s)
play with blending modes on photos and text
chunky words/text used as a clipping mask for photos


This week's grand prize winner will receive a $10 gift coupon to paislee press designs and $10 gift coupon to traci murphy designs.  2 other winners will receive a gift coupon to two sisters designs or gina miller designs.
