Conversation Bubbles Creative Project

Hello friends! One of my fun jobs as a member of the Artisan Design Team is something known as the Creative Project! It is a project that we get to do a couple times a year with anything we like! That sounds exciting but sometimes it is really hard to decide was to do or what products to use because we have SO MANY awesome things!

However, my favorite new bundle of the Occasions Catalogue is the Conversation Bubbles Bundle. I just love how much fun the dies are and the unlimited potential of what you can do with them!

I decided to lean into the color palette of the Country Gingham DSP—I just love the color combo of Petal Pink, Sweet Sorbet, Balmy Blue and Mint Macaron in this DSP. And who doesn’t LOVE a gingham print?

The base of my page is Sweet Sorbet and I added two 3x6 inch strips of the DSP over top to fool you into thinking its 12x12. A 1 inch strip of the new Textured Shimmer Paper adds to this illusion!

I matted my 5x7 picture on Mint Macaron and added a little more Sweet Sorbet DSP to the side.

 

The best part of my page is the custom stencilling done on the background.

I used 4 different dies from Conversation Bubbles cut on a Window Sheet. I then used the stencils with Petal Pink ink and my new mini Blending Brush to create the fun word bubbles right on my scrapbook page!

If you look closely, you can see some hearts literally DOODLED on top using my Petal Pink Stampin’ Blend Marker! Why not use your markers to make custom designs on our projects!

The best part about using the stencils created with Window Sheets (versus cutting the shape from card stock) is you can see right through them for perfect placement AND you can flip them over to change the direction of the stencil. Not to mention you can use them again and again!

 

You can see the 4 custom stencils that I created using the dies. Think of all the fun you can have with the variety of dies that Stampin’ Up! sells!

I really hope this idea inspires you to try some stencilling and doodling on your own projects!

Happy 14th birthday summer! She requested a family cake recipe from my mother in law and i attempted a naked cake!

I stamped out a variety of the words from Conversation Bubbles and use the various coordinating dies with them. I really love how you can layer up the different words to bring your scrapbook page to life. The dies also have little hearts and stars which are perfect little accents along with the new Pastel Adhesive Backed Sequins and a bit of the Gold Shimmer Ribbon.
