Did you see the number in the title?? We’re having a 200th challenge at CASE Study! I never thought we’d get this far and yet here we are… I’m very humbled today, what magnificent four years it have been! Just you wait until you see what we’ve got in store for our impending Anniversary!!
More on it soon, but for now let’s play another inspiration-laden challenge, featuring Shari Carroll as our Muse! Here’s what we’re serving this week:

I love this timeless layout. I would love to know who came up with it first and gave life to this ongoing trend. Do you know? Is it even possible to track such things??

I took white cardstock with a subtle woodgrain texture for my base, and cut the panel from Cosmo Cricket Simple Surfaces patterned paper. I love the pad it comes in - there’s glittery stuff, vellum and plain paper with a variety of designs to choose from, all fresh and trendy. I’ll be using it a lot!
I layered some die cuts on, cut with the Penny Black‘s brand new A Pocket Full dies and stamped with the coordinating Let’s Chat stamp set. For the speech bubble, I had to alter the stamping a bit since the ‘tails’ face the opposite ways in the die cut and stamp. I simply added the tail with a black pen once stamped.

I also added some ink splats, sequins (as I would, duh!), washi tape tucked underneath the panel and I spelled the work “kid” with some ancient old Thickers 🙂
