No more excuses for poorly lettered titles!

Beautifully lettered titles can make the difference in the appearance of our scrapbook pages. As a busy person who still wants classy-looking pages, cutting out those letters from templates is too time-consuming to do for every layout. This is where Becky's book is such an inspiration. With clear directions and numerous visual examples, she show even those of us with terrible penmanship how to letter wonderful and creative titles. Beyond showing how to do the lettering, she gives inspiration for clean, classic layouts in all her examples. She provides many ideas for how to place the letters, so that these 50 fonts can provide a multitude of looks. There are a lot of books on the market to help us improve our lettering, but if you are looking for only one, this is the one I'd suggest.
