Your journalling can set the tone for your layout but sometimes you just can't find the right words. Quite often I find all I want to say can be found in the words of a certain poem or quote. Even the words of a favourite song can be used as your journalling focus. If you are new to scrapbooking and the thought of journalling on your layouts seems a bit daunting than this is a great way of easing yourself into it.
This is probably my favourite journalling technique and I have a list of favourite quotes that I keep handy and jot down any quotes or poems that I come across that I think I could use in my projects.
Here are a few projects that have quotes or poems as the journalling focus.
This doesn't have to be limited to your layouts - try it out on your cards as well. Here are a couple of super-simple cards - all I have used is a piece of scrap paper (with some sewing around the edge) and the quote.
Why not try this technique in your next layout or try making a card with the quote on the outside instead of the inside.
Remember we would love to see your creations in our gallery.
Happy creating!
