CSI No. 272 - a winter LO

I love the challenges from CSI to wake up my fantasy, and this time it was case file 272 that I wanted to scrap - to my January month in my Project Life album.

As we have had a lovely snowy winter I wanted to document that, and found this nice picture of my dog and his friend playing in the snow. I wanted to keep the whole LO as white and "snow like" as possible - that's why it's so white and CAS .

Moodboard 272:

Testimony: Document winter

The scene: I used all colors but very little of the non white colors

Evidence:  Dots on a transparent paper behind the photo, winter elements, animals, string, mist, metal, cut file

Here are some closer view of my evidences:

Dots (transparent paper), string, Metallic, winter elements, dog and bird

Mist with extra glitter glue on the top, metallic brad, cut file ("season")

Winter element: snow flakes, Swedish snowing song "yeah see it's snowing, yeah see it's snowing, wasn't it funny, hurray!"

Animals (puffy stickers) and you can even see a carrot (one of the evidence).

CSI no #260

Hi, ready for one more CSI challenge no 260 (see link). 
This is my LO:

And this is the mood board that inspired me:

I followed the traditional CSI challenge and solved this:  

colors:all

evidence: Solid white background (some part), floral pattern (Maja design), stripes, spiral notebook paper, anchor, flowers, leaves, watercolor, gold, string, labels, glitter

Some closer views of my evidence:

Evidence: anchor, gold, flower, label, spiral note book, leaves

Evidence: string, label, anchor, gold, glitter

Evidence: flower pattern, stripes, gold, watercolor

Evidence: glitter flower

testimony: I used the inspiration word bloom, that is important in midsummer eve that we celebrated here, and my flowers I used in the hair as a Swedish tradition

Journaling: I wrote about our yearly tradition to celebrate midsummer eve at either my family or my sisters family, this year 2017 we were at my sisters house. I also told about what we did and always use to do at this day, most eating and talking. And then I talked about the tradition we have in Sweden to have a wreath of flower in the hair, but I just used some few flowers in fabric into my hair. Then I also wrote about the strange thing; that the weather this day use to be rainy or cold in Sweden, but this day was rather sunny - and we enjoyed it so much - this is important as we always force us self to sit outside to eat on midsummer eve (although the weather is bad!) and this is also a Swedish tradition.  

Some background paper are from Maja design, that I won from CSI challenge last year. The other papers I don't remember for the moments, the stamps I bought recently from someone who sold them privately.

CSI Challenge No 250

A new case for CSI challenge and a new, happy childhood memory!

Here is my LO I created:

And the CSI challenge is linked here, and has this inspiration page:

I followed the old style with following clues:
Colors: all colors but I added yellow
Evidence: sold cardstock, clouds, sun, clock, labels, owl, bird, other animals (ladybirds),  puffy stickers, flowers, hand-drawn element, car, string, tied knot, stamping.

Testimony: A childhood memory

Closer View:

Here above you can see: handwritten flowers, 2 ladybirds (really summer for me), label with the year 1970, a lot of flowers that I cut out from pattern papper. 

Here above you can see a cut owl I got from a friend.

Here above you can see: cloud, bird : puffy stickers, flower, sun

Here above you can see: my handwritten flower, flowers, clock, string, a tied knot (around the clocks upper part).

Here above you can see: some more red details (flowers and ladybird), stamping.

Here above you can see: car (our cousins had that kind of VW bus), a part of my testimony and stamping (remember).

The testimony is a long one about our fantastic summers. My aunt and mother really wanted us and our cousins to meet every summer in my grand parents summer house, and we had a lovely time. The routine to go there every year not just gave us the safe and caring feeling but also a deep friendship to our cousins that still holds. I wrote about what we did together and in the end I told the story about these 2 photos from 1970 (I was 4.5 years old, sitting in blue pyjamas beside my 5 years old coulsine). I remember this so clear, as we were not allowed to be there because it was bed time for us (in north of Sweden it still daylight until 0.00 in the night). We were so happy that nobody has discovered us (not true!!), sitting very quite and listen to my dad, an older cousine and my aunts husband. 

After a while my mother and father started to dance, and I can still hear my grandmother laughing when she is taking these photos. What a clear, happy memory!

(Another puffy heart in the right teal color, binding together the 2 photos).

CSI No. 236

Hi, 
Time for a new case at CSI (see link).  
I really wanted to document an adventure from last year in Austria.

Here is the LO:

And I followed this case: 

I used the scheme (colors).

I used the evidence: stripes, polka dots, banner, wet medium, bird, animal, twine, buttons, gold.

I used 2 testimony: 

"document an adventure" and  

"hang your journaling from string"

-----

Here are some closer views how I solved this case:

Here you can see that I hanged journaling and banner from a string. You can see my bird (a hen that was walking around at the tables when we had lunch), and buttons.

I like this funny clothespin. 

I had a lot of journaling as you can see.

On the bigger journaling I have documented about the tough trip up to the mountain in Austria. On the smaller tags that was hanging from the string I documented about why we went to Austria (my fathers 75-years birthday), and who I travelled with, when, and where. 

And in the envelope I hided a map of the mountain and on the tag I pasted some other places that we visited during this journey.

Thanks for the look!

PL Norge mars tävling

Det är så kul att få inspireras av Project Life Norges tävlingar varje månad, denna gång var det följande utmaning: 

Man fick själv välja vad man ville ha med från Tema, färger och elementer. Eftersom jag tycker om utmaningar så försökte jag få med så mycket som möjligt på min layout:

Tema : favoritt. Det är familjens olika julfavoriter jag tagit med. Favoritjulklapparna och godsakerna men även hunden som gör alla trix för att få en hundgodis. 

Farger: Jag har använt färgerna från bilden

Elementer: Jag har använt klistremerker, wood, chevronmönster och piler

Mina pilar är av genomskinlig plast, guld och wood. Wood finns i hjärtat och i pilar. Klistermärken är bokstäverna och några texter. Chevronmönster har jag dels i plast men även i tejp.
