June Scrapbooking Challenges Case Files - Mid-month Reveal | Deadline: July 4, 2025

Mid-month already? Time flies when you're solving crafty crimes! Our CSI Detectives are back on the case with a brand-new challenge to spark your creativity. Case File No.457 is bursting with inspiring colors, fun summer vibes, and plenty of clues to help you dig into your stash and document your stories. Whether you're a seasoned sleuth or a fresh recruit, we can't wait to see how you'll crack the case.

Both June Case Files are open through July 4, so there’s still plenty of time to join the investigation!

GUEST DETECTIVE SPOTS

Our Detective Squad is always hot on the trail of standout scrappers! If your layout leaves us awestruck, you just might get deputized as a Guest Detective. We’ll be combing through the case files on the 4th of each month, so make sure your evidence—er, layout—is filed in the album by then. And don’t worry—our cold cases are always open, so feel free to revisit old clues whenever inspiration strikes. Crack enough crafty cases and leave a trail of wow-worthy work… and you could find yourself recruited to our elite Design Team Task Force!

CASE FILES 

We love adding a little flavor to our Case Files, and this month’s clues are extra sweet—June just happens to be National Candy Month and Lemon Month! But remember, you don’t have to follow the theme to crack the case. Let The Scene spark your own story, or use the traditional clues to guide your investigation—you’ll find them at the bottom of this post. However you choose to play, we can’t wait to see where the evidence leads you!

June Scrapbooking Challenges Case Files - First Reveal | Deadline: July 4, 2024

Happy June, CSI Investigators! 

We're excited to bring you a new month of inspiration and fun!

For this first reveal, we'll be sharing inspiration for our first Case File. On the 15th, we'll be sharing inspiration for our second Case File.

GUEST DETECTIVE SPOTS

We'll be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way. We'll investigate the albums on the 4th of the month, so if you're interested in serving as a Guest Detective, make sure you have your layout in the album by the 4th. (But feel free to use past Case Files as inspiration any time.)

And you never know, if your work really wows us, you might even be asked to join our talented design team.

CASE FILES 

We like to have fun with our Case File themes, and National Candy Month and Lemon Month are celebrated in June. As always, you don't have to scrap the topics illustrated in the Case Files. Draw your own inspiration from The Scene, or you can use the traditional clues, which can be found at the bottom of this blog post.
