Grapes Harvesting

Hello everyone and thank you for hoping to my blog :).

There's a new case file at CSI, case file #139, with a fantastic sketch by Em Stafrace:

And this is my take on this wonderful case file:

My clues to solve the case were:

Sketch - checked;

Scheme - all 5 colors are here;

Evidence - stripes, clouds, flowers, mini brads, two of soemthing (two photos), triangles, flourishes.

Testimony - my journaling, documenting my youngst harvesting grapes, is written on the cloud, and I used IW 'perfect' in my journaling (it was indeed a perfect day).

The background paper is Prima, and so is the circular latice stencil I used. all other pp are Echo Park, a mix&match of collections. white cs and brads are AC.
I would like to enter it to the 'anything goes' challenges, both at Paper Issues and at Clique Kits.

Here are some close-ups on the details:

Thank you for taking the time and visiting my blog. I appreciate your comments very much.

Crazy for you - CSI #123

Case file #123 is up at CSI, with a mysterious inspiration photo:

Well, my take on this challenge is more to the crazy side LOL. I used photos of my boys inside a 'shark' mouth, on our visit to the underwater observatory in Eilat 6 months ago. The boys had so much fun getting inside the shark's mouthe, making horrified funny faces.  They were really something :).

I used Carta Bella Rough & Thmble collection, and went crazy with the mixed media background. I used two flairs from StudioFourteen40 (Boys will be boys set 2; Post Mark set 1).

I used sketch 30.1 from May challenge at Page Drafts, which is called 'One of a kind', documenting that special and wonderful day. Here's the sketch:

My clues to solve the case were:

Scheme - all 5 colors are there.

Evidence - mixed media background, a creature (the 'shark'), rub-ons and stamps, drape something.

Testimony - I wrote my journaling directly on the background paper, all around the edges of the page, just like in the PD sketch. I also used the inspiration words 'mystery' and 'enchanted' to describe our experiences at the underwater observatory that day.

I would like to enter this lo also for the current challenge at Scrapki-wyzwaniowo, which asked to use at least 3 stamps. I used  4 different stamps on my background.

Here are some close-ups on the details;

Thank you for visitng my blog and I appreciate every comment you care to leave me.

Made with Love

Edit: on the  Most Wanted list at CSI

Here's a layout I've made for several challenges.

Sketch - 'Love is Everywhere', PageDrafts, I used the 2nd sketch:

Moodboard - Feb challenge at Scrap Around The World:

My inspiration was the cake, of course! LOL I was also inspired by the colors from the chevrons - orange, green, brown and pink.

Flowers (made with dies plus CLD dies) - CheeryLynn Designs. I used several CDL dies - franch pastry, mini fanciful flourish and Francesca border. the flowers were made with Die-Namics dies.

Last, but not least - case file #111 at CSI:

My clues to solve the case were:

Scheme - all colors are here.

Evidence - polka dots, drips, stickers, punch border, sprinkles, 3 of something (3 flowers, 3 ribbon bows, 3 places of punched edges).

Testimony - my jouranling (hidden behind the orange banner) is about a childhood memory, and it says: "For birthdays, Mom always made beautiful cakes, with a lot of attention for small details, and with a big creativity. Deisgns of a butterfly, choo-choo train, clowns and flowers. All made with so much love. I've passed this tradition to my kids, at least until they've discoverd the colored eatable pages..."
