GUEST DETECTIVES

Julia Heald

Hi My name is Julia and I've been scrapping for nearly 20 years now. I love documenting everything from my family, to the small things and more recently my puppy! Scrapbooking for me is the about memory keeping, a creative outlet but mostly, for me, a mindful outlet to de stress from the world.

Here's how Julia solved Case File No. 389: Inspired by the colour palette I reached for Paige Evans Wonders collection and a photo of my daughter and a friend which had a tropical theme. I used a grid based cutfile, an ampersand some wood veneer which I have painted to match the colours, some vellum for something transparent to back the cutfile plus some paint splatters and a hand drawn decorative border.

INSPIRATION 

And now, are you ready for some serious inspiration? Here's what our design team and Guest Detectives created with this month's first Case File. We will share creations for our other Case File on the 15th of the month.

The CSI design team masterfully cracked the Case. We'll share how we solved the Case on Facebook and Instagram.

CASE FILE CLUES 

Choose as many or as few as you are inspired to use! You don't have to use all of the categories of clues. use what inspires you, or challenge yourself to use as many clues as you can. Or just use the image to inspire you as you wish!
