CSI and The Color Room layouts

Hi everyone, hope you all had a great Easter! You might want to check out the latest challenge over at CSI my layout is another Prom one of DD from last year, loving the colours on this one, so pretty. My evidence was the butterfly for an animal accent and glossy accents on the leaves for a wet medium.


My evidence was to write a haiku, which I have hidden in the pink pull out tabs as I still find journalling hard to do. Used some old GCD paper from Donna Salazer and some old bits and pieces from my stash, the little pink Love tag was from Milagros from the CCG days!

My second layout is for thecolorroom gorgeous colours over there this week, make sure you check them out. This layout is The Animal Kingdom Lodge hotel in WDW Florida, we stayed here in 2007 and are going back this August, it is the best place on earth to stay.



This was fun to create, trying to use as much of my old paper etc as possible. Lots of rolled flowers and cut out leaves, glossy accents on the leaves and also on the chipboard letters which I used gesso on first and then inked, pleased with the results. I also cut round the pic and used gesso and ink on that as well, think it turned out okay.

Hope you all have a great week, my latest addiction is Pinterest if you haven't tried it you need to it is sooooo cool! Take care, Doreen x

    Yeee you had time to play along in both places! have some catching up to do when it comes to my commenting. Now that I've met you in person, I can sooo see the family resemblance in your DD. Especially around the mouth area. She is such a lovely girl. Love the rolled flowers and the pretty pretty feel to your CSI page. Nothing like using up some of the old stash! Really like your alpha treatment in your TCR page, looks cool. You have also captured the fun-filled feeling of the Lodge in your second page. Really love your rolled flowers, they are absolutely fab. Thanks for popping by and your words of wisdom, I have taken time off scrapping for some days. Had a brainmelt after having created 8 pages in 3 days, that's too much for me. Hope your Easter was a good one, did you stay at home or go visiting family up north? take care, xoxoxox

    how fun are these. haven't done the color room in ages & never the CSI. can't stand the show.. but i'm not into TV much.
    how funny about the Haiku my mother - an english professor - loves writing them all the time. i should totally scrap some of them! never thought about it. although i have scrapped some of the poems and short stories she's written. love those flowers you used on the color room layout. beautiful!
