Sharing is caring!

I am so happy you are here! For the first time in YEARS, I am not cropping this National Scrapbook Day. Luckily for all of us with nowhere to go on NSD, we can gather together online and trade ideas, techniques, and inspiration. We've got an easy hop this year with some of your favorite scrapbookers PLUS a giveaway of over $100 in goodies! Be sure to continue on the hop at the end of this post but first, let's scrap. Today I am sharing how to make brush lettering even if you don't know how to hand letter. Say what?!

Brush lettering looks so cool! If you're like me, you tried brush lettering and well, it didn't look as amazing as you thought it would once you put pen to paper. That's why I am super happy that we can make brush lettering quote art WITHOUT knowing how to letter or write well. It's true!

You might have heard of canva but I have a few tips that will help make your adventure into digital brush lettering super duper easy. There are some really cool ways you can use your digital brush lettering creations in:

Ideas of what to do with printable brush lettering:

With National Scrapbook Day around the corner, I thought it only fitting to a few ways to use digital brush lettering in your scrapbooks and papercrafts.

Do you LOVE pocket pages? Or do you love using those gorgeous cards made for pocket pages? Some of my favorite pocket page card designs have brush lettering on them, like the cards and papers from the Illustrated Faith line by Bella Blvd. We can actually create our own CUSTOM cards and designs digitally and print them TO ORDER on our printers at home.

I created the pocket page design above using cards I printed on watercolor paper with my HP Envy 5540 printer along with splatters of spray ink and india ink. You will not BELIEVE how easy it is to create designs like this!! Want these journaling cards now? Click the big box below to download them for free, RIGHT NOW! CLICK HERE

Not only that, you can create watercolor quote art for your home for PENNIES, customized with your favorite quotes.

Imagine creating one of these with a tribute to a family member who has passed on or as a keepsake with baby's birth date, location, and name. Add watercolor paints to the printed paper for a trendy watercolor art effect. Or print brush lettering onto cards, invitations, and more for custom party decor, custom greeting cards… everyone will think you are a lettering genius!! All of the projects above were creating with my HP Envy 5540 printer and Canva.com.
