This is the start of an inspiration patch, where I hope that fellow scrappers and creators will come and find some inspiration, or even leave some inspiration for me.

Me and Joe - CSI Case File no.76

Hi Everyone

I am really enjoying the extra day to my weekend and so loving just having a bit more time to play and create.

I did some shopping with my sister and the kids this morning, and really feel like I have manged to tick off a few of my 'to do" things!

I have finished my page for the new CSI challenge and can  really say that I love this page! It has turned out exactly the way I wanted it to and I am thrilled with it. Here was the challenge.



I loved the sketch and really had some ideas for it.

So here is the result.


I used my circles template as a stencil and gessoed the semi circles on and then outlined it.



I used a combination of the Good Life collection from Fancy Pants Designs and the Swagger Collection.
The stamp used on the background is a Chiswick stamp and I just repeated the patterned words.


I made a fun title and love that it makes one's eye travel.

Evidence: Circles
Testimony: Using the word "day" in my journalling
My journalling is at the back of the photo and says this:
One of the most rewarding things in my life, is being your Mommy. Watching you grow, develop and learn is such a joy and such a pleasure! Daddy took these pictures of us on Mother's Day - May 2013 and it was a special little photo shoot for "Me and Joe"!


Thanks for stopping by!
I hope you are enjoying your Monday!

  3. Very nice layout! The sketch looks a bit challenging indeed, but a fun one, and you did a great job. I think I'll have to give CSI a try, too! I often like the colours but it has seemed complicated to me to have so many things to consider in one challenge. Maybe it wouldn't be after all.

    Meanwhile, I also hope to take part in Scrap Africa again, and want to thank you for your comments on my my layout for the previous challenge!
