I originally wanted the gold at the bottom to be painted, but then I realized I didn't have gold acrylic paint on hand, so I used gold glitter instead. Scrappy Tape (which is a cheaper alternative to Scor-Tape) works pretty well for keeping glitter adhered. The base patterned paper is Teresa Collins > Tell Your Story > Tickets (the B side with the grid, which is all I've used so far and I think I should get more at the rate that I'm using it . . .). I cut out one of the speech bubble pairs from Carta Bella > Hello Again > Chit Chat patterned paper and stamped with "hello" since the speech bubbles were blank.
