Scenic Saturday with Amybella: Bundle Girl on a Plane Falling Hearts Scene

Amy here with another Valentine’s Day card for this week’s Scenic Saturday. This time around the cute little BUNDLE GIRL ON A PLANE seemed like a fun and playful choice, especially when I paired her with just the hearts from the BUNDLE GIRL WITH FALLING HEARTS stamp.

There were a few choices I made when laying out this design to help play up the feel of movement within the scene. The first was deciding on a long mini slimline card size to provide plenty of space for this Bundle Girl to sail across. When I stamped her on the card front I also made sure to position the stamp so that both the tip of the plane and part of the winding trail ran off the edges. By having part of the image disappear out of frame it opens up the space that the scene is occupying and allows the viewers eye to imagine the scene extending out beyond the card. Finally, the trailing hearts that I added by inking up just the hearts from the Bundle Girl with Falling Hearts stamp, start above her raised hand and flutter back the entire length of the card, making it look like she has released them into the wind. All of these things combined, work together to achieve that sense of motion that I was after with this cutie. The sentiment is another one from the LOVE SENTIMENT SET and the way it is nestled in at the end of the motion trail brings all of the various elements full circle in a visually pleasing manner. So even though the completed scene is pretty clean and simple, I hope you’ve enjoyed this glimpse into my thought process when creating.  🙂
