Jan 19 Clip Photo to Title

This was way fun! I'd had no idea how to use one of the many photos I snap of old vehicles (mostly trucks). This one wasn't really good enough to stand on it's own (taken while driving, um, don't tell). Thank you so much for a fun challenge!

 

Day 19 Clip photo to title
I really clipped my photo to the title! I used Impact font, outlined the letters and shadowed the letters after clipping the photo.

I had a lot of fun with this challenge. I never use fonts/alpha and rarely tell a story but this was such a cool way to use them.

 

I clipped the same picture to the title.

 

I clipped my big photo to my title, I hope that is ok. I really like this!

 

The photo I used is mostly sky with the top of the Dumbo ride lined up with the O.

 

Love this challenge!! I clipped the photos to the title, and then added an inner shadow so it kind of looks like cutouts...hope that's ok

 

i know how to clip things but never thought about using a photo and clipping to alphas..so thanks for the challenge. i actually clipped both the photos i used in this layout to make two different designs in the alphas

 

What a fun technique!

 

I really need to use this technique more often.

 

So, I ended up going super simple after I captured this as I was arriving home. This was at the end of my street over the wash (dry river). One day, I think I'd might like to create a cover page for a Europe album using this technique - assuming that I ever go back and re-do it digitally. I was all paper scrapped in 2008 before I started digi.

 

Here is mine:



Used picture of my son's candy haul to clip to the "TRICK OR TREAT" title.

 

Sorry that the image isn't very clear, but I had to get it small enough to fit into the gallery! Thanks for the fun challenge. I used Mickey and Minnie fonts for the title work on this trip album cover.
