Creative lettering ideas:

- stickers, chipboard, alphas etc

- stamping

- printing and die-cutting (adhering or masking),

- handmade ink-jet printer rub-ons ( there're plenty of tutorials, for example)

- trace the contour (make it as a rub on, or deboss it: place the desired motif, printed, upon the sheet of paper you want to embellish, secure with clips, trace with a pen or ebmossing tool or knitting needle) 

when you get the motif you like debossed, you can:

   * prick it (although you may not want to deboss, just prick),

   * stitch (any stitch type you like, one color of multi color, contour stitch or satin stitch, try ribbons, beads, sequins etc)

   * "write" with threads, floss, twine, wire etc - just placing the chosen fiber on the glued contour, 

   * trace the word with microbeads, seed beads, gems, bling etc,

   * model them with clay or salt dough,

   * paint it - with 3d paint or simple, solid line or dotted,

   * cut out the bold font title (or use a die-cutting machine) and place a contrast paper under the cut, or make a microbeaded surface and place it underneath 

   * and much more: crochet or knit your words, use quilling, try pergamano...  =)
