Today I wanted to share my layout for the current CSI challenge.
I had two attempts at this challenge. Usually I will stick with a layout and try and make it work. But my first attempt it was just not happening for me. So I pulled it apart and started afresh. Sometimes I think I have to realize simple is best. I have decided I will use the first attempt which I had used paints to cut up for tags.
I solved the case by ~Evidence
Stripes on the brad
Flowers
I have my journalling in a envelope pocket
Ribbon
animals
feathers
Testimony
I have documented childhood memories of my Grandmothers and put it on a tag inside a envelope pocket
My Journalling say's
Growing up going to my Grandmothers was always fun. We called in every Sunday after 8am Mass ,we would then cook toast in the fire on a long fork. Mum Coyte kept a lolly jar on top of her fridge , my Dad always headed there first.
I remember sleeping over some weekends in my Aunt Phylis's big wrought Iron bed. Mum Coyte was a happy soul. I went to Mum Coyte's on my wedding day to have a shower , as we had a lot of people staying at our house and my Grandmother lived not far from us. Mum Coyte always wore an apron and sometimes stripy socks. I always remember her standing at the gate in her apron and stripy socks , waving us off.
The captured tag is from StudioFourteen40
I am loving enamel dots at the moment
My Grandparents raised 9 children in this small home. Thank you for calling by. I hope you are enjoying your weekend .
Love , Peace and happiness

Wondered what you'd been up to! Now I know. Getting frustrated with pages and ripping 'em apart!!! You ended up with a really lovely page. I LIKE that you've not done vintage or MM for a change [since you're not having a holiday!!]...those enamel drops are really YUM!!! And of course, my fave part is your story....brill as always:):)
