Make a Wish

It was my sister's 50th birthday back in April and I was looking through the photos of the celebrations and thought it would be good to scrap this photo of her with the gift we gave her.

This was made in answer to this week's C.S.I. challenge #40

Talk about last minute - the challenge closes in a few hours!

For my Evidence I used polka dots and stripes, Scalloped ovals for my journalling, banners using Stampin' Up punch, Numbers from My Little Shoe Box Tiny Type letter stickers. 

 For the TESTIMONY I chose to use bows on my journalling spots using light Fimo Clay and Martha Stewart clay moulds, painted pink. Three round journalling labels cut from Basic Grey's Basics papers. I used inspiration words - Wish, Special, Happy in my journalling.

The main papers used in this layout were left overs from a Girl's Paperie project I did a few years ago - Paper Girl.

The chipboard word 'WISH' was in my stash - I painted it pink and added a lot of glitter in the form of Ice Stickles.

The flower brads and felt flower strip has also been in my stash for ages, and I added some Paperchase flat backed stickers.

The embossed words 'Birthday', 'Happy' and 'Family' were stickers from a Making Memories kit I found in my stash. I think the big pink fabric Blossom is also from MM.

I used a Marianne Designs die and green cardstock for the leafy swirls.

The scalloped ovals were cut with a set of Sizzix Dies.

Black and pink Chalk Ink from Colorbox.

My journalling reads:

14th April 2012
