I searched and searched to find the definition of

subway art, n. 1. placing and arranging related words, in random fonts to form art.
Our FAB DT has been playing with this topic and I can't wait to show you what they've come up with.

See below for tips to making this layout quick and easy....
1. To start, I used an electronic cutter to cut out my title. I wasn't really picky about where it ended up, because I planned to just work around it. I did make a point to leave the center of my layout empty.
2. Using lots of stickers makes layouts quick and easy to put together. To add intrest and make layering easy, just use lots of foam dots. You can see this in the close-up pictures.
3. Use the cut outs to add instant shapes. Since they already have such neat shapes printed,

4. The yellow banner piece of paper was one that I had cut to small for another layout. I save my large scraps, so I just pulled it out and added it to this layout.
5. Finally, to get the look of stitching or bordering without taking much time, just add holes at the corners and stopping points instead of actually making a lot of stitches.
