case study challenge 110

Well the weather has certainly been autumnal here - lots of rain and lots of wind! The latter is a real shame as it means the leaves are already starting to fall and I want to prolong their colour for as long as possible! With this being our last week in September it means it is also our last week with Torico as our muse at CASE Study :( I have so enjoyed Torico's clean, cute style and has been such fun to CASE. So here's our last Torico card for inspiration.


Isn't that butterfly stunning! So elegant and dreamy. However, I just couldn't pull myself away from cute this week and so I printed out another of Torico's digis to colour - Robot with balloon. In line with Torico's card I used a full length mat of patterned paper, the image on a die cut and the sentiment below. Here's my card:




Continuing with my glossy accents experiments, I covered the ballon and am now managing to get quite a good result. Only one or two air bubbles this time!


Oh and Torico is sponsoring the challenge this week with two of her wonderful Halloween digi stamps - even more incentive to have a go and join us at CASE Study this week. Here's the rest of the crew for more inspiration:
