I "love love love" my Silhouette Cameo 3 die cutting machine and use it all.the.time. That said, I know not everyone has one so on this layout I wanted to share how you can still create a large impactful title without the help of a machine. I did include a printable in the lesson so you can cheat a bit and use it as a template to create the repeating title.
Once again I used my Whimsical collection and picked out a dozen patterned papers to cut out the letters from and then distressed the edges to help them pop off the background even more.
I used my favorite Prima - Pastel Dreams watercolors and white acrylic paint to create a mixed media background before building the layout which adds even more pops of color. One helpful trick I've found, if your paper is warped after adding mixed media, run it through a Minc machine to flatten it or set a heavy box or weights on top overnight.
