Process
I fell in love with the Chatter AP the minute I saw it...not only was it perfect for the subject of my page but its vibrant colors worked wonderfully with this vibrantly colored closeup of my son's face.
Because the focus of this page was my son learning to talk I wanted to play around with typogrtaphy for a design that was centered around words. I used this great fotoblendz mask from the Vitality set to create a fun crop for my photo that focused in on my sons cute little mouth--while adding to the graphic flair of my page.
The transfers from the Chatter AP helped me to liven things up and I positioned them to create a diagonal flow in my design. Then I finished off things off with a few touches of dimension including the plastic alpha and urban stitchez.
