Type Cast: Creative Page Design Using Words, Type and Letters

.:Description

*Besides the photos, type and the treatment of words is the most important element on a scrapbook page. The words scrapbookers use add depth to the meaning and content of their layouts--and they can be even more effective when artfully presented with types designed to evoke certain emotions, sensibilities, or dimensions.

*Typography was recently ranked the fifth most popular topic among Memory Makers readers, a trend made evident in the market by the popularity of various lettering products (monograms, die cuts, rub-ons, etc.).

Combining learnable techniques with strong, inspiring artwork, Type Cast will teach readers how to get the most out of their tools, supplies, and even their own handwriting to create fabulous pages that fully integrate text into successful designs. With the help of professional scrapbook designers who love to play with type, readers will learn how to:

*Choose the perfect lettering to portray mood or theme
*Have fun mixing and matching letter types
*Integrate type into page design for good balance and proportion
*Create titles
*And journal with maximum impact

Screen captures demonstrate ways to add digital type to handmade pages, while step-by-step photographs accompany written instruction to illustrate exciting techniques for using letter templates, stamps, die cuts and ready-mades.
