It's Creative Crime Solving Time once again!
This is my take on a brand new Major Case File
from CSI: Color, Stories, Inspiration:

Let me explain how I solved this case!
The Scene is all about relaxation to me, so what better opportunity
to share my lair, the place I escape to on the weekends when I'm off work,
the room in my house that makes me the most happy, 'My Happy Place',
my scraproom! All the time I spent in this place truly rejuvenates me!
I respected the Scheme colour palette as much as I could
with a beautiful combination of carnation pink, pale sage green, sage green
(more of a greyish hue on my page), white and light golden yellow.
From the Evidence list, I chose a bit more than 3 clues:
book pages, leaves, string, text print, cursive font lettering, wood and triangles.
For the Testimony, I opted to document a weekend ritual
which is to of course spend it in my scraproom as much as I can!
I also hand-wrote my journaling on a little journaling card.
And always, the Major Case File includes a compulsory Sketch which
I was glad to follow because I simply LOVE playing with sketches!
I was also inspired by the June challenge at 7 Dots Studio which is about 'Daily Routine'.
I thought it fit in perfectly with the CSI case file and so I merged the 2 together,
using mostly 7 Dots Studio papers, tags, stickers and chipboard
(from a variety of their collections) on my page. As already mentioned,
my daily Weekend routine is to scrapbook, scrapbook and scrapbook! :)
And now let's look at some details:
The best part of my time spent in my scraproom is when Sugar the cat joins me!
I added a bit of stamping with 7 Dots Studio stamps on my background
and added color with several mists.
My scraproom has changed since this photoshoot I must say.
I changed furniture around, added some shelvings and fancy baskets
and right now as I write this, it looks like a tornado just passed through! hehe
These fancy leaves are from 7 Dots Studio as well. I love them!
There you go! Another case solved as a CSI Detective!
Thank you CSI and 7 Dots Studio for the inspiration!
Super beau travail encore une fois Nicole. J'aime vraiment la mise en page. Tu as bien su incorporer les triangles et la ficelle. Bonne idée d'avoir imprimer tes photos en noir et blanc. Les petites phrases vont parfaitement bien avec le thème de ta page. ♥
