Guesting for CSI

Hi everyone

This month 2Crafty Chipboard is sponsoring CSI, which is such a cool challenge site.

I've actually never had a go at solving one of their cases, so I was keen to have a go.

I really enjoyed it.  I've always felt daunted by it all, but it actually was a lot of fun and not overwhelming at all.

I encourage you to have a go.

 

 

 

Here's a look at the challenge:

 

 

I solved Case 247 by taking inspiration from the above scene and also using some of the traditional clues.

 

I used the colours, in fact even how they were lined up!

I used a white background, florals, leaves, bird (flamingo) and rub-ons (these haven't had a workout in years so it was kinda cool to use these again).

I also documented a summer memory and used rhyming words in my title.

 

 

 

I used the following 2Crafty Chipboard:

"Summer Line Words"

"Alpha Set 1"

"6" Flamingo Frame Set"

 

 

 

I painted the Fun from "Alpha Set 1" black and did the same to the sun from the "Summer Line Words".

 

I used Distress Ink to colour the "6"Flamingo Frame" and I then applied embossing ink and clear emboss powder.

I loved using up some old bits and pieces from my stash.
