Magical day {CSI Casefile #12}

CSI: Casefile #12 went live today...GORGEOUS reveal!! You must go check it out!! :)

Hexagons are the "it" shape of the moment, so I went hexagon crazy, lol. When I was searching for pp in the above colors, I came across the new MME Be Amazing line, and loved this paper:

And, thought the striped sections were perfect. So, I decided I would go hexagons, lol. I have used a sketch from Creative Scrappers Creating with Sketches book, but flipped it. I really love the way it turned out!!

 EVIDENCE: hot-air balloon image, stars

TESTIMONY: inspiration word "magic"

My journaling is quite personal, but I will give you a few lines:

This day, this magical day, is the day that changed my life........I never knew how much love I could feel for someone so tiny. My tiny, gorgeous little boy, who changed my life forever.......

Debbi has put together another amazing Case File for you this week!!

• stripes
• clustering

Testimony:

• I have used all the senses in my journaling. It reads:
• "Your 1st trip to our new self-serve yogurt bar, Cherry Berry! You both LOVED it! You could pick whatever you wanted to add to your yogurt. There were so many toppers...too many to look at! From sour gummy worms to salty nuts to sweet chocolates! you both made your own yogurts, pulled the handles on the toppers all by yourselves! It smelled like sweet-treat heaven in there, and neither of you wanted to leave! But we did go home to eat our yogurts, and the whole time, all I heard was Mmmmmm!!"

• Daniel & Jacob - 1st Cherry Berry yogurt - Sept. 16, 11

I had a lot of fun with this layout...it was a tough one for me though...tried to keep the pink and violet to a minimum, lol. The DT did an amazing job with the case this week! So many different takes on it!! You can check out there layouts HERE.
