We know that your focus on a layout is usually with the words and photos, but don’t forget about the important role a title can play! It can introduce your story and become a big design element, as Suzanna Lee is showing us today with a new layout! Let’s take a look!
Hi ya scrappy peeps! It’s Suzanna here today! By now you have all seen, shopped and received your February kit and the amazing Teal Acetate Alphabet, both of which I’m using today for this large titled layout. It’s teal-ly goodness is further adorned using the Large Jane Alphabet Stamp to add some variety and personalize the look of the letters.

In reality, this layout is rather simple as the bulk of the layout is the title. The title is a combination of the stamped Acetate Alphabet, Jane Alphabet Stickers and a digital word. The subject of this layout is how my husband and daughter won lottery tickets to see Hamilton—front row tickets for $10 a seat! It was only fitting to use a quote from the production.
The construction of the layout was a simple process. Most of my time and effort was dedicated to arranging the Teal Acetate letters and cleaning the stamps. I was short a “T” so had to perform some “reconstructive surgery” and turn an “F” into a “T”. Not all that involved! Stamping over that particular “T” makes it less noticeable.
Stamping on the acetate letters is easy with the outline Large Jane Alphabet Stamp as they are a coordinating shape and size. It’s best to use StazOn ink as you need the solvent ink to stamp on non-porous surfaces, such as the acetate.
Additional fun features on this layout are the Cork Stars, available with this release. Some phrase stickers from the Be Happy Stickers punctuate the layout with appropriate phrases.
I have a process video of how this layout came together and how I stamped over the Teal Acetate Alphabet if you are more a visual learner. Check it out:
