Adding Lyrics to your Layout | Digital Scrapbook Inspiration

Hey Scrappers!

One fun thing you can do on a layout is add the lyrics to your favorite song…or a song relevant to the memory you are scrapping.  Lyrics to a song are typically copyrighted (there are very few exceptions) so you won’t find a paper with the lyrics to Spoonful of Sugar in a Mary Poppins kit, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make your own.

Create a text box the size of your paper.  Then either type the lyrics or copy and paste them from a lyrics site on the internet.  Paste them over and over until it fills the space.  Tweak your font, alignment, & leading until everything looks right.  You can also play with the blending modes & opacity.  Ta Da!  Now you have a new paper perfect for your memory.

Lucky Me

Top of the Mornin’ to ya, Chelle’s Creations fans! Chelle’s CT members have been playing with her Lucky Me bundle this week, and I have a couple of their digital scrapbooking pages to show you. This bundle is a collection of a greens, golds, and oranges that are perfect for documenting your St. Patrick’s Day celebrations or anything that makes you feel lucky. I’ve been on a roll finding four leaf clovers lately, and Chelle’s kit even has a perfect digital match to my clover leaves.

First, Karen has some pictures of one lucky dog who is a special part of her family. She captured him on a warm, spring day resting while they were out for exercise. I love the stacked papers she used in the background. luckymerascal2012_600_zpslrbnrdt0

Next, Jenn took a group photo of her crew at a St. Patty’s Day parade, and what better way to record the memory of that fun day than have that photo be huge on the page. She used the word art as well as the kit for her page. If you’ll look closely, she has used the clovers I mentioned on the top corner of the “N” in her title. Aren’t they perfect? going green

The bundle in the market is a really good deal. I know you’ll feel lucky to have found it here – like finding your pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Check it out!
