Making the Title Topper
- I used the computer to come up with a design that I liked. Once I the design I printed it out.
- Take the print out and transfer the letters to your card stock by sandwiching your card stock between your printout and a pad of paper.
- Trace your design and it will leave grooves on your black cardstock.
- Follow the grooves with you gold and silver gel pens as needed.
- I found that I had to go over it a couple of times because the cardstock soaked up the gel pens a little.
Bringing it all Together
- Mount all of your pictures and title topper on gold and black cardstock and assemble your layout.
- Punch small stars using the Sizzix Die Cut Machine and The Primitive Star Die in gold, and fill in the layout as needed.
