At CSI- ColorsStoriesInspiration- there is a different challenge each week in which you can participate. I just finished making a page for Case File 137. For each Case File you must use all five colors, two items from the Evidence list and one thing from Testimony. Isn't this a cheery color scheme?
Here is my layout~
I used:
lace, ribbon roses, pom pom ribbon, pink burlap
7 Gypsies 97% stickers
washi tape
machine stitching
Prima Pearls
Petaloo flowers and glitter heart
modeling past and spray ink
two selfies of College Girl and her childhood friend
 |
| There is torn washi tape along the top and bottom of the page. I zigzag stitched around the photos |
For the envelope listed in Evidence I used a clear ziploc bag stitched down between the photos.
 |
| Here is a closer shot of the modeling paste misted with spray ink |
College Girl can journal about her friendship,
and I will tuck the note into the little bag with the glitter heart inside.
 |
| I had to include this funny sticker because it suits these two. Just kidding, of course! |
What have you been up to this week? If you get a chance, go take a look at CSI and play along.

ReplyDeletePretty neat!
ReplyDeleteShawn. this is so gorgeous! congratulations on your win. As I travel around blogland and see the different things people do, this is the top thing I'd really like to try! Maybe if I get the right supplies and see what everyone is doing I can try this some day. And I never thought of stitching down pictures. Your daughter and her friend are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWOW dear friend, I am blown away by this. Congrats! You are at such a high level with your craft, I am so impressed. I don't think I would know where to begin. So fun to study your work. Thanks for sharing such an interesting creation.
ReplyDeleteHi Shawn! Thanks for all your good wishes for Pageant Wagon Publishing and my new book. I'll be posting updates on Pink Saturday. Loved catching up with you - been down to one blog post a week lately with so much on my plate. Hard to visit around like I used to do. LOVE all the details in this piece - whenever I see your work I just want to chuck all my busy and pull out my stash of paper goods and go for it. Can't really take the time for such luxury at present - maybe sneak some collage work in the New Year. Blessings!
