April 1st challenge at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge is up, with a wonderufl prompt - "scrap or art journal about a favorite pastime from your youth. Was it a sport, fishing, cycling, reading or teasing your older brother?". 

So I took an old photo of my brother and me, playing is a natural pool on a summer vacation. I think it was 1968 or 1969. 
It was also a perfect match with case file 116 at CSI, as one of the testimony options was to be inspired by a song title or lyrics for the journaling. My title says, in Hebrew: "We were kids, and it was so long ago", and it was taken from a very beautiful Israeli song, talking about childhood memories of the singer, Yossi Banai' who grew up in Jerusalem. If you're interested, you can hear the song and see translation of the lyrics :) :

I used the sketch from Scrap365, only turned it to the side, but I think you can still see the sketch in my page:

I was inspired by the work of two very talented scrappers: Georgia Heald and Sanna Lippert. If you are not familiar with them, you should do yourself a favour, and pop over to their blogs, trust me you won't be disappointed.
I would like to enter this lo also for the 'Vintage with a twist' challenge at Orange Paperie&Co.  You should pop over to see what beautiful creations are posted there, and they're so much friendly :).
Anyway, here's case file #116 at CSI:

My clues to solve this case were:
Scheme - all colors are here.
Evidence - music elemnts (music notes stamp on the background), circles, metal, buttons, labels, use something that runs on electricity to make your layout (having a mixed media lo, I sure used my heat gun a lot...), diagonal cross-hatch pattern (a stamp on the background and on the right bottom corner).
Testimony - inspired by the song lyrics, I wrote about fun vacation memories from my childhood: "Sleeping in a tent, jumping to the cold water, floating inside tires at the pool, pulling out air from vehicles' wheels, and then running to hide behind Mom&Dad's back, oh our family's summer vacations, simple yet so enjoyable."
Here are some close-ups on the details:

So what was YOUR fav pastime when you were young (not that your not young now... LOL)? scrap about it and share it with us at AFSC. we'd love to see it.
Thank you for taking the time and visiting my blog. I appreciate every comment you care to leave me.
