Memories

I did this layout for CSI Color Stories Inspiration.  This took me back to my childhood.  

For the Scheme - I used all five colors that were required.

The Evidence - I used Polka dots, String, Butterflies & bird, and key.

The Testimony - I chose to document a childhood memory

On the tag I said:  My sister and I lived in a small town and this is outside of our home.  We could run, visit neighbors, walk downtown to get candy without our parents.  It was a wonderful time to live unlike today where you can not play outside or go any where without your parents having to take you.  It is days gone by!

Colorado

I did this layout for CSI Color Stories Testimonies.  I found photos of our trip to Colorado which the circled picture is my daughter and granddaughter.  We absolutely love Colorado.  On this challenge I wanted to show the mountains and all the trees which I believe I captured it the best I can.

The scheme I used all five colors; 

The Evidence:  I used map print, trees, and watercolors

The testimony:  Colorado - Travel the world over to find the beautiful - Adventure is worthwhile - Life was meant for a great adventure

 

Please see the close-ups.

It has been a pleasure and thank you for looking!

God Bless America

I did this patriotic layout for CSI Color Stories Inspiration.  This layout was a pleasure to create.  I did not have any 4th of July photos but I did have these cute photos of my grandson riding on his four wheeler.  I hope you like what I created.

  This is the information we had to go by.  I had a lot of choices to make but it really turned out good for my layout!!

Here are the close-ups!

As you can see I made the American flag which I placed these two photos on.  I also cut out the small American flags glued them to toothpicks and waaalaaa!

Look closely and you can see all the micro beads that I added plus the red and blue splatters!  I also made stitch marks around the tags plus added the scribbles.

I love these little flowers by Tim Holtz die cuts.  Needless to say I used blue and red papers to make them look patriotic.  

Now you can see these cute little flags!  Lovely!

Thank you for taking the time to look.  I really appreciate your comments!

#205 Bluebonnet Festival

I did this layout for CSI Color Stories Inspiration.  I found the perfect photos to show off their challenge.  

I really loved working on this challenge!  We had to use the 5 colors which was presented to us and 3 items were to be used within the layout plus your testimony or describing what was being taken place.  I remembered we were in Ennis one year and had a great time seeing all the bluebonnets and going to the Bluebonnet Festival in Ennis.  We all had a great time.  I was also given a sketch to go by as well.  





This is what they needed for me to do to complete this layout!

Please see the close-ups!

What a great challenge this was.  Well now on the see if the new challenge has been listed!
