I did some good layouts this weekend, but I was having major problems with the titles. The second page with Ashley running I just gave up and went without a title. On this page, again with Miss. Ashley, I knew I wanted to use that word art from Carina Gardner, but it was in stamp form. After I did the page using a layered template I thought the title needed to have more depth. How to achieve that chip board look? It turns out it is super easy. First I selected my word art using (CTR+clicking on the word art layer), then filled it with pink. Then I applied the same drop shadow that was used on the other items in the template just by copying and pasting the layer style. Then I created a new layer, and selected the word art again. In order to make the tan "chipboard" backing I just went to the selection menu, chose modify, then expand and used 25 as the expand amount. Then, making sure I was on the new layer, I filled the selection with the tan color. Then paste the same drop shadow and like magic word art has a little depth.
Now if I could just do something about the impish grin:)

I gave up on the title, but I LOVE these frames!

I was happy to do this layout, as soon as the kids saw it they were asking to go skiing again. My favorite part is the ski flying out of the frame. Cross Country skis are really long and when you fall they are not so easy to deal with, but very funny to watch.
