Not every project needs to be sweet, romantic and filled with thoughtful inspiration. Sometimes it simply needs a phrase that says exactly what you are thinking — preferably with a little sarcasm. Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Small Talk Snarky includes 218 English phrase stickers featuring witty, teasing and delightfully irreverent humour.
Inside the spiral-bound book, you will find short comments and complete phrases inspired by everyday oddities, moods, relationships and all those moments that deserve a slightly sharper observation. Sayings such as Why limit happy to an hour? and I got it all together, but I forgot where I put it can become captions, titles or the unexpected detail that completely changes the mood of your composition.
The book contains 8 sticker sheets: four with black lettering on a white background and four with white lettering on a black background. Choose the contrast that works best against your background or combine both styles within the same page.
The phrases have a compact, practical height and fit easily between photographs, ephemera and layered embellishments. Apply them as they are, or cut a longer phrase into separate sections and spread it across different areas of your project. You can also ink the edges, add colour or draw a border around each sticker to make the words an even stronger part of your design.

✨ Inspiration Tip: Pair a serious vintage photograph with the most unexpectedly sarcastic phrase you can find. Position it beneath the image like a caption and add a tiny arrow or number. The contrast between the photograph and the words will do all the storytelling — and will probably steal the show.
