CSI #102 ~ FUN MEMORIES

Hello bloggy friends
The case file over at CSI had me stumped for awhile, but sometimes you just have to start.
I ended up liking it and really enjoyed the creative process


and there is a fab sketch by Emma Stafrace. I was inspired by the sketch, but it sort of went on its own journey in the end.
Fun Memories  


Evidence ~ Branches and leaves~ I have torn the top PP back to reveal this on the back PP
Gold Accents ~ I have used gold paint on the chipboard tucked in the side ( this was inspired by Kim) I didn't have any frame chippies so I use the negatives of some scrapmatt chippies that I had left, broke them up and added texture paste and pressed an embossing folder into the texture and then painted with gold and green.Thanks Kim for sharing your talent with us .
Circles ~ I have used circle PP under my Photo's. The green is canvas that I have painted with water paints.
Testimony ~ I have journalled about the  gift of family. Journalling says ~ The best gift for me is being together as a family creating happy memories.
Other products used  ~ Flair button from StudioFourteen40
Scrapmatts word chippies
TCW Scrip Star Mask from Craftqueen
Kaiser Stamp from Marally Craft
Some closies




These photo's of my boys and Grandson were taken on the night we put our Christmas Tree up.

Thanks for calling by. I know it is a busy time of year, but I hope you can find time to join us in the challenges at Orange Paperie and ColorMeScrappy
Love and Peace

This is a fabulous layout and I love what you did with the stars... Think I will have to try that too... Such a fun sketch. I am hoping to play at OP and Co but I have NO mojo this month :(

A lovely take on the challenge Mary. I love the distressing & your circles. I must say that this case file had me stumped for a while as well.
