CSI: Case File No. 10

Happy Monday everyone!
Hope you had a lovely weekend :)))

Just popping up quickly the latest Case File at CSI, where I am Guest Designer there this month! Beautiful colours again this week and the inspiration from the DT  is amazing! I really hope you have time to give this one a go.


Raising Boys.... I have been wanting to do a layout documenting this for a while now, so I was really excited when I saw this challenge.  Being a mother to boys is something I never imagined doing.  Actually I never gave it a thought about raising boys or girls but I guess coming from a family of all girls, having boys was something totally different and new for me but even through it all, I LOVE the fact I have boys.

I also loved the lady's dress in the picture and how 'flowy'it was.  So that is how I came up with the design of this layout.


Evidence:  I have clouds which I rubbed with some gesso and then let a few pools of glimmermist 'sit' on it for a bit to get my light and dark effect. And I have a few metal Prima buttons and the metal Prima frame.



Thanks so much for visiting...I have been so sick for over a week now with a flu virus thing...its been mainly in my head and glands, so I have been laying low.  Hopefully this week I will have more time to visit you all :)))

Have a wonderful day!
