A 10-slide library of speech bubble and callout shapes. Purple, orange, and blue fills across different shape styles: rounded speech bubbles, thought bubbles with dots, sharp comic-book bursts, hand-drawn dashed outlines, wavy organic blobs, and cloud-shaped bubbles. Each slide holds three to six callouts so you have variety to pick from.

The last slide shows a usage example. Two overlapping chat bubbles paired with a three-point numbered list, to demonstrate how you’d actually drop these into a content slide.

What to Do With Them

Copy any shape and paste it into your own slide. Type your text inside. These are vector shapes, so color, size, and stroke are all editable from the shape formatting menu.

The point of having 10 slides of variations is that you rarely want to use the same callout style across an entire deck. A soft organic blob works for testimonial quotes. A comic-burst shape works for a “new feature” tag. A rounded speech bubble works for conversation examples. A dashed hand-drawn outline works for casual annotations on a diagram. Pick the shape that fits the tone of what you’re calling out.

Practical Uses

Highlighting a single stat or quote on an otherwise text-heavy slide. Adding “what the customer said” bubbles next to a user journey map. Marking up a product screenshot with annotation callouts. Flagging a key line in a contract or document screenshot. Tagging a specific region on a chart. Adding speaker quotes next to team photos on an About Us slide.

For training materials and workbooks, callouts work as tip boxes, warning labels, and side notes that break up dense instructional content.
