ALLONS PATINER (Lets go skating) - Case File 245 DT


HAPPY NEW YEAR
2018 ! Can you believe it!

A new year brings a new twist to the CSI challenge. http://csichallenge.blogspot.com
It allows for more of a freestyle take on the challenge. Take a look at the new and improved case file.


My layout is a combination of old and new rules. I kept the (5) Colours, although I varied them a bit, chose items from the list of Evidence, and chose a prompt from the Testimony.

Photo was found on Google images.


Colours
The five colours I picked from The Scene are:

Navy Blue: papers
White: Silhouette cut files (flourish & flowers), snowflake buttons, paint spatters
Light Blue: pattern paper, "fun" die-cut
Golden Yellow: Silhouette cut file (sign post), stamping ink, small hearts
Khaki Green: stamping ink (snowflakes)

Evidence
Polka dots, Stars, Winter elements, Architectural element, Distressing


Testimony
Document a winter activity

The translated journaling reads:

"It's been years since I've skated. I would like to change that. After Christmas I plan on getting some skates so that I can go skating with my grand-children on our frozen pond or at the municipal rink. I would love to rediscover the pleasure I had skating as a young child."



You can see how I used both my Silhouette and my stamps on this close-up.


...and my Silhouette to cut both the sign post and the title letters.




I've given myself some scrapbooking goals for 2018:
*Use my Silhouette as much as possible.
*Use at least (1) stamp of every layout.
*No spending except for glue.
*Stop comparing myself to others. I am not, and never will be, a mixed media artist.


I hope to see what YOU create this year. I would also love reading about your personal scrapbooking goals for 2018.

À la prochaine, Until next time,

Jacynthe ☺
