Hey There

This week’s Paper Smooches SPARKS challenge is a Picture Perfect challenge. I interpreted the multiple picture frames in the photo as speech bubbles on my design.

I stamped three different speech bubbles from the He Said She Said set in different color inks on white cardstock and cut them out. Once they were cut out, I played around with the arrangement of the bubbles on a green card base. After I settled on an arrangement, I glued them in place, using a dimensional dot for the one in front. I stamped that bubble with the “hey there” sentiment from the Sentiment Sampler set. I used gray ink instead of black for a softer look—I seem to be doing that more often lately. The design is finished off with a trio of super sparkly silver sequins scattered around the bubbles.  I think I might have liked this one better if I'd cut out the two frames in the background.  Too late now . . .
