TCP - Bubbles Happen




We’ve got another fun set from The Cat’s Pajamas today...celebrating another passtime that kids and grownups all over the world love....blowing bubbles!   It’s so fascinating to put that wand in the mixture....give it a little breeze and off these shiny, translucent beauties go into the world, unless part of the game is catching them to pop them!  

I really wanted to give this design the feeling of bubbles cascading off the page so I tried to give them a pretty translucent and soft colouring with my Copics, added some clear sequins to mimic bubbles and then some sweet soft pastel-like colours.  


There is a wee touch of sparkle that I gave to each bubble with a glitter pen that you can see in the above photo.  Then it’s a Cut Ups border die Heart Border underneath the purple later to give it some tied in colour contrast.  



Be sure to POP by The Cat’s Pajamas Blog to see more from this cute set.....see you tomorrow with a set that may have you celebrating Talk Like a Pirate Day!
