Titles: Positions Available

Like many scrappers, I often find myself in a scrapping rut. Unlike scrapper's block (where I can't seem to create any layouts), when I'm facing a rut, I feel as though all of my pages start to look alike. When this happens, I look for ways to spice things up a little bit. One of the best ways I've found to do this is by changing the position of my titles.

More often than not, my titles end up at the top of the page. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, but I'd like to challenge you to try something new with the title on your next layout. Here are a few things that have worked for me:

• Layout by Jennifer Sizemore

  Stretch a long title across a two-page spread.


• Place the title beneath the pictures at the bottom of your page.


• For smaller titles, position your words directly above your journaling on the same block.


• Highlight some of the words in your journaling or quote and let that stand as your title.


• Turn things around! Vertical titles offer a wonderful change of pace.


• Place the letters in your title so that they overlap onto a photograph.


• Run your words across the middle of the page.


• Add a title to one side of a thick photo mat.


• Pick up any magazine or newspaper and flip through it for more title placement inspiration.
