CSI COLOURSTORIESINSPIRATIONS CHALLENGE

Afternoon,
When I saw the challenge over at CSI http://csicolorstoriesinspiration.ning.com/ I knew I wanted to join in, as I had some old Kaiser papers in the colours that I knew I could use


Detailed clues, as promised...
For those new to the challenge, you can learn more about the challenge rules here and here.
This week, we invite you to scraplift from Case File 1--not the colors, Testimony, or evidence, but rather the design or an element from a member, Detective, or guest designer. You can see the reveal here, and all of the layouts for this Case File in this album.

  • Tea with Lemon - pale, pale yellow, taken from the tulips - 243.237.187

  • Try this cool writing prompt: 6 Things
  • Write 6 interesting things about your topic.
  • Add a small decorative design to your journaling spot.
  • Stroll through the Woo Woo Teacup Journal and see if anything sparks an idea. (Click on the "older posts" buttons to navigate.)
  • Inspiration Words: -- repeat, favorite, stir, today use these as inspiration for your journaling, not just as a title


Here is my take on the challenge
