Default What Size Shadow...

do you use for your text? and if you have had your LO's printed, how do they look? I don't do a very big shadow and the ones I had printed don't look like they have a shadow at all...just wondering what everyone else does

If it's just text, like type, then it doesn't get a shadow from me. I look at it as if it was typed directly on the LO or journaling card or whatever.

No shadow for me either. Only if I make it into like the title of the page or something.

I never shadow text... IDK - in real life, writing has no shadow, so I think it would look wierd for there to be one on my scrapbook pages, lol.

I dont shadow my text either, but I'm curious to how it looks when you print it though! I'm sure it would look pretty cool!

Mostly no shadow here either, but I do make sure to choose a contrasting color so that it's easy to read. I've been known to add a very faint shadow if I have a background that is neither light nor dark.

No shadow on plain text for me. I use a tiny shadow on anything that's supposed to look stamped or painted.

If I am making a font title, I do use a bit of a DS - around 35 - 40, but w/ just journalling I don't.
