Just so we're all clear on this point, I, personally, never owned, and certainly never used, those original speech bubble stickers!
But today's speech bubbles in today's scrapbooking are a lot more fun and funky, in my opinion at least!
These photos are the first ones printed from our holiday to Port Macquarie last month. We chose our holiday destination by telling He Who Skates The Most to find a skatepark on the mid-north coast he'd like to visit and we'd try and choose a caravan park based on that. It just so happened that while we were staying there, a Penny Skateboard promotion had been scheduled, with heaps of give-aways and competitions.
The weather was not on on the side of Penny Skateboards that day, however, and the promotion was rained out before the skateboarding was due to start. Between the three kids, they ended up with one free cap and an assortment of stickers, posters, drinkbottles, and this piece of advice:
Almost everything on this page is from my February Counterfeit Kit, the only exception being my DIY letter stickers.
This page sat on my desk for about a week, and was simmering in the back of my head for longer, and when a page sits around for that long, I like to do a super-quick layout to balance it out:
Like I said, super quick, using the last of the four sheets of older paper from my kit as well as some of the stamped elements. The chipboard letter have also been sitting in my stash for forever - long enough for me to say to myself, stop worrying about using all the vowels on one page and just use them already!"
Hey I love the speech bubbles!! Great topic to scrap too! xx
