Childhood Hero - CSI no. 312

Happy March 1st to all! it's time for a new challenge at CSI - case file 312, with this awesome inspiration photo:

The colors of the inspiration photo screamed 'Disneyland', so I used two photos that were taken on our visit to Disneyland Paris on April 2016.

Winnie the Pooh was my eldest's childhood here. He just loved it so much, and went with his big puppet everywhere, and even went to sleep with it by his side on bed.

Naturally, we went to meet Winnie on our visit and took many photos with him.

I used all 5 colors from the scheme. For the eviedence I used: tone-on-tone patterns, wood (the arrow wood veneer), stripes, dots, checker pattern, speach bublles, stars, flair badage and stitching (faux).

My testimony is about how awesome and adorable was my son with his Winnie the Pooh.

I used Laura Whitaker's sketch for My Creative Scrapbook:

I used two photos, and for the third one on the sketch I just added stickers.

Here're some close-ups on the details:

It's Autumn.... a mini album plus a card

Taking an inspiration from autumn, I've made a quick mini album and a card, all for a friend's birthday.
The construction of the album is in a zig-zag way, with many flaps. It's flat and has no pockets and have only punched shapes and enamel dots for embellishments.

It measures 5.5"X5.5".

I used the paper left overs from the mini album to make a matching card.

Let's take a look in the inside:

And a few close-ups:

מיני אלבום וכרטיס משאריות - בהשראת הגברת הקונדסית, הלא היא יעל יוציס.

המיני אלבום בגודל 5.5 אינץ' על 5.5 אינץ', הוא יכול להכיל כ-10 תמונות בגודל 9X13 או 10X10, ואם רוצים - אז יש מקום גם לתמונות שהן צרות וארוכות.

הוא בנוי בצורת זיגזג, כל פעם פותחים לצד אחר, ויש בו פלאפים רבים.

הקישוטים, בהשראת הקונדסית, שטוחים למדי - פאנץ' הקווילט המדהים ונקודות דביקות.

הכרטיס, בהשראת כרטיס השאריות של יעל, על בסיס קראפט ומיסגור של קארדסטוק שחור.

ואם השראה קונדסית, אז נקנח בתובנות:

1. אלבום חמוד וקל להכנה. בשורה התחתונה - פחות מתחברת אליו.

2. את השדרה הימנית החיצונית הייתי צריכה להרחיב טיפה. אולי בפעם הבאה שאכין כזה אלבום.

3. הפאנץ' הזה פשוט הורס להפליא, ואפשר להשתמש לאו דווקא בצורה המלאה, אלא בשילוב של חצאים. אוהבת את הפינות שיצרתי כך.

4. הנקודות הדביקות משדרגות לגמרי. 

5. התלבטתי בין שתי סגירות אפשריות - האחת עם חוט אופים:

ובסוף בחרתי בסגירת מגנטים כפולה - גם הפלאפים עם מגנטים וגם הקישוט המרכזי. מקווה שיחזיק טוב את כל הקונסטרוקציה כשיודבקו גם תמונות בפנים.

לא סגורה על עצמי איזו מהסגירות אני מעדיפה.

Henry VIII's girls - CSI case file 298

Another case file is up at CSI, case file no. 298, and this is my DT layout for this case file.

The photo was taken 4 years ago, at Madame Tussauds Museum in London. 

I'm a great fan of GB monarchy ever since I was a child, so I couldn't resist to take a photo of me with the two daugthers of Henry the 8th, Queen Marry the 1st and  Queen Elizabeth the 1th.

For my layout, I used my October Counterfeit Kit.

This is how I solved the case:

Scheme - all 5 colors are here.

Evidence - stripes, metal (the brad and the flair button), string, heat embossing (the black leaves with Lindy's Purly White ep), circles, solid cardstock, scallops, stitching.

Testimony (journaling) - on the pull out tag in the corner I wrote 5 facts about Henry the 8th' wives and children.

I've used Laura Whitaker's sketch for My Creative Scrapbook:

Here're some close-ups on the details:

Magic - case file no. 294 at CSI

Happy Sunday to all my crafty friends! after a very long summer vacation it's time to get back to routine.

And a new month means a new case file at CSI - case file no. 294. Here's the inspiration photo:

The color scheme reminded me of the colors of Mickey Mouse and Mini Mouse photos from our visit at Disneyland Paris, so I took one photo of me & the mouse and one of me & Mini...

I used Laura Whitaker's fab sketch for MCS:

I used Simple Stories papers and embellishments, mainly from Say Cheese II collection, and added some Echo Paper papers.

I used ALL the clues from the evidence: grid pattern, ledger pattern, papers with a graphic pattern (circles), school-themed elements (the pencil that holds the title), camera, metal (the brads and the eyelet on the tag), buttons, brads, layers stickers (handmade - the cloud), geometric shapes (circles and rectangles), dimensional letters (chipboards letters), a string, a clip, frames, used a pen to draw outlines.

I wrote my journaling on a lined paper and used the inspiration word 'Back to'... I wrote about going back to childhood memories and charcters.

Here are some close-ups on the details:

An exploding box for a wedding, with 5 mini albums

I've made an exploding box, with 5 mini albums inside, as a gift for a friend, who's son got married.

It's a very big exploding box, 5"x5"x5", so you don't make it from one 12x12 cardstock! I used Yael's tutorial, which you can find HERE, with some small changes.

The papers are from Piatek 13, 'Love in Bloom' collection. I've used mainly the 6x6 pad, but also some 12x12 papers.

Each mini album is different in design.

All in all, this box can hold 60 photos and more, sized 4"x4".

Here are the photos of the inside content:
