Yay! it's back! It's a CSI challenge!

Hellooo!

I'm back from my trip to Paris. Amazing! couldn' t have had more fabulous weather sunshine and about +21C IN NOVEMBER! Walked for hours, had coffee and lunch at outdoor cafés. Simply enjoyed life once the conference was over. How about champagne onboard a Bateau Mouche on the river Seine! I say oh là là!

On another happy note. One of my happiest scrappy times was when I was on the DT of CSI (Color Stories Inspiration). All the fun we had with Debbi, sweet sweet Debbi Tehrani at the helm. 

Now Debbi and Mme SCRaP365 Editor, Ali Parris have joined forces and brought the SCRaP365/CSI challenge to the SCRaP365 blog. 

Click here for the full reveal of the SCRaP365/CSI challenge where you will find a full explanation of all the case file elements. Here is first the color palette;

khaki green - taken from the car - 17.187.158

ecru - taken from the clouds - 242.239.230

warm gray - taken from the package behind the guitar - 143.141.129

bright golden yellow - taken from the yellow leaves - 246.221.128

bright pumpkin orange - taken from the orange leaves - 23.1.151.88

I had originally planned to create an autumnal page with orange and yellow as mains, but as so often happens - Mr Mojo took me in a completely different direction. My main colours are instead in soft ecru/gray/khaki with just tiny splats of yellow and orange. All the colours are in there.
 
The evidence used are: mist, hearts, scattered white sequins.

The testimony is based on the inspirational word free.

I never journal on the page itself, it always goes on the back. 

"Ever since you were a teenager you have been interested in 

capturing the world with a camera. You and your girlfriends

spent hours writing manuscripts and then making films.

What was once a hobby, is now your profession. You see

endless possibilities through your lens and create

magic with your camera. You talk with passion about your 

work and the freedom it gives you. So many places you

have travelled to in the line of your duty with a TV 

production. What is more lovely, you share your 

passion with the man who has captured your heart.

Emelie, dad and I are so proud of you! keep on creating magic

and be free."

 

I am truly sorry for having been absent in most places for months,

but the work I started before the summer holidays is keeping

me more than busy. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have a 

job after having been made reduntant, so many out there who haven't 

got one, to learn so many new things and to build something 

from scratch with a new boss. 

Thank you to all of you who have visited me time and time

again and for all the love you have left me!

There are no words to describe how I cherish and

appreciate it!
