Hello! Here with week 5 of my Project Life album. This one's a bit longer than usual because I decided to include a die cut insert.

Full supply list below ♥ ♥

DIY // How to Customize Your Die Cut Typography // Project Life Inspiration

Oh Hello // AW Conqueror Slab // & // AW Conqueror Inline // Diecuts

Yesterday, on the Sweet Shoppe Designs blog, Heather posted a really great entry with tons of font suggestions for die cutting. I was really inspired by the font family AW Conqueror, so I sent over some images of customized die cut typography to include in the post.

Below are the Project Life layouts I was playing around with and I've also included tips on how to access and utilize the many OpenType features available for AW Conqueror. I know there were a couple questions on the forum about how to do this, so let me know if I can explain anything else ♥ ♥ ♥

For the Love of Paper // Wordart Download // Not All Who Wander Are Lost

Not All Who Wander Are Lost // DIY Diecut // Silhouette

Because I work in such a small space, I can't always have my Silhouette out. Lately, I've been cutting out a bunch of shapes all at once using white cardstock so I can have embellishments on hand as I'm scrapbooking.

Scrapbook Layout // Wordart // Can I Get My Thrills

Can I Get My Thrills // 6x8 // Handbook Album

This is a photo-less scrapbook layout I put together with some hand painted wordart. I sized it 6x8 to fit into my Studio Calico Handbook Album once printed (supply list below)

I've definitely been inspired by the beautiful specimens of hand lettering floating around Pinterest, especially all of the painted signs. Check out my Pinterest board for some amazing examples ♥
