CASE Study Guest Designer!!

Hello!

Today I am excited!! Beyond excited really. :-) I have been invited to be October's Guest Designer over at CASE Study Challenge! Woo hoo! I cannot begin to express how excited I am at working with this fabulous team, led by the amazing Chupa!

This month our muse is Elena Roussakis, who I am sure most of you know already, but just in case you don't, I recommend that you take a long wander through her blog. Elena is the master of parties, and I WISH I had a fraction of her creativity in this regard. I have been a big fan of Elena for a long time, so I'm a little awestruck at being asked to CASE her all month long.

For Case Study #160, we have this lovely ensemble to inspire us. I will admit that I had some trouble moving past that delicious looking pie, LOL!
Once I managed to move past the pie, I saw polka dots, stripes, cherries, red and aqua. Having no cherry stamps, I used my strawberries.
I used PTI Strawberry Patch stamps. Colours are PTI Hawaiian Shores, SU! Real Red, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, and Memento Tuxedo Black.

If you are inclined to build party ensembles, then this month at CASE Study is your opportunity to play around with these, with Elena as inspiration.

Thanks for visiting me!
