After retirement I really started enjoying using my treasures. The variety of styles keeps me motivated and I consider myself an eclectic scrapbooker. Using multiple sources like sketches, classes, and challenges to inspire my layouts is currently my favorite way to complete projects.</div><div><br /></div><div>Here's how Tammy solved the Case: I was influenced by the evidence: floral pattern, text pattern, art/craft themed items, photo corners, paint brush, paints, ink splats, and people. My own handwriting for the testimony suggestion was personal and felt appropriate for the sentiment. Variations of the color palette were easy to use with the collection I chose, Discover & Create by Vicki Boutin.

I’m an occupational therapist by day, avid scrapbooker by night, and nature wonderer on the weekends. I started scrapbooking about twelve years ago, wanting to capture and record the special moments in my children’s lives, as they grow up. It has since become a passion and a form of therapy – it keeps me sane when life gets a bit crazy! I am a traditional patterned paper sort of girl at heart and enjoy creating single - and double-page layouts and journal pages.

<br />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.)</div><div><br /></div><div>And you never know, if your work really wows us, you might even be asked to join our talented design team.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">Since it's our birthday today, we're celebrating with our first Case File. If you were here from the beginning, you know our very first Case File was Alice in Wonderland-themed, as January is the month of Lewis Carroll's birthday. And we wanted to make sure to have a Case File to document your New Year's Eve pictures or New Year goals, so we've got our second Case File dedicated to that. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">As always, you don't have to scrap these topics. Draw your own inspiration from The Scene on the Case File, or you can use the traditional clues, which can be found at the bottom of this blog post.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.2043997059290650&type=3" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1394" data-original-width="1910" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl4UfetyRXLhMxtzENEYPFwFVevktesTIyziaAXcRyOem-S3QyZBAJSLNIOOYKnofYwmhUa6WW8B2V3VrbPLpYvrk5Fzhq7kgZrfKyQOaWtP-L9eaO-wbVpIh60gA_gz30SrCb6H2xkIpI6ikvcz-B6M2Yckau9xcnceRdnnTsGSdgT0h5nCHitlaz3Y8/w640-h468/426%20copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Image credit: <a href="https://bestcakedesign.com/alice-in-wonderland-cake-design" target="_blank">Best Cake Design</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.1005953027164202&type=3" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1394" data-original-width="1910" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdkQAoG0zejLWzdiqy__rTGGijQlrbATjh-lObOfqjYz1D1E-IGBeX0GeBcRoQwlfvXULmRSIxOjQtU_GtGshvLGmQvLtBEyC2iwByocSKaHwKJWdUwIU2p_nAi_a_30jJ9kGK7rVVeRawMQLdX-_56iPF64JNbxuaAeyiYDT9MvQMDGEJF51O5a50rio/w640-h468/427%20copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Image credit: <a href="https://www.advocate-art.com/paula-doherty/bonne-fete-london-fog-cocktail-jpg?date=&query=New%20year&order_by=latest">Paula Doherty</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The traditional CSI clues can be found on our Facebook page in the first entry under the album.

At one point we had a couple of hundred people playing! But I'm not a quitter, and even if I inspire one person to scrap, it's worth it to me!

I’m delighted to be a Guest Designer (thanks so much, Debbi). My name is Nelya Lutsyuk. I get to be a stay at home mommy to 4 kiddos. My oldest is almost 8, and my youngest is 6 months (he was born around Christmastime!). I enjoy crafting, scrapbooking in particular. I love how broad this craft is - you could include mixed media, fabric, collaging, doodling, painting, stamping, and more! It’s so much fun to be inspired and pushed out of my comfort zone by various challenges. Everyday/random stories are my favorite to document - hearing funny stories from my childhood is something I’ve always enjoyed, and I want my kids to know theirs (such as the time when my kindergartener refused to have her school picture taken). Thankfully, I have an amazing husband who totally enables me and my scrapbooking. 😁</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Here's how Nelya solved the Case: <span face=""Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: #f0f0f0; color: #050505; font-size: 15px; text-align: left; white-space-collapse: preserve;">My evidence: Dots, stripes, Christmas-themed items, car, leaves, wreath, circular elements (enamel dots). The testimony also documents a negative Christmas memory that I can laugh about now.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh15ng4iDxEu0gdj-OrUSv3Z76q9IY7dvGR8e_L_e7Q7aKq_5I76B6zasNa8gqB-xQGlwN6f8PYLAYir7i5UWOk10iCIs31-K2-ufJ0pzRDqMzQWh6mZJsQpImOP__4KQuCq4OsDaqVzW3EyNZzOO5rAJN6cF-6sLMfosIwbYnvRAMpQq18UoyOTkz6mF8/s2963/nelya.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2963" data-original-width="2963" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh15ng4iDxEu0gdj-OrUSv3Z76q9IY7dvGR8e_L_e7Q7aKq_5I76B6zasNa8gqB-xQGlwN6f8PYLAYir7i5UWOk10iCIs31-K2-ufJ0pzRDqMzQWh6mZJsQpImOP__4KQuCq4OsDaqVzW3EyNZzOO5rAJN6cF-6sLMfosIwbYnvRAMpQq18UoyOTkz6mF8/w640-h640/nelya.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="13" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="320" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Next up, we have Leslie Williams guest designing.</div></div><span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></div></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO0m7IdOm0i2aLF56ooTPfuLzESpRxKjHTfnOL1CL9qStYsYEnd0FDFZWbxXrJi-7cYp6RMY9oMtlsNwXjdkfqRwjfMsv3dP2CvFY_8wV-k5jUKE7rEHRKTGF_brmFvod-fwgkEujK3aQHUrsJVjGcGjS5fTi_1i9NJrbcRINRo9mB8qHXsUC6cVbqJG8/s1504/leslie%20williams%20headshot.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1504" data-original-width="1040" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO0m7IdOm0i2aLF56ooTPfuLzESpRxKjHTfnOL1CL9qStYsYEnd0FDFZWbxXrJi-7cYp6RMY9oMtlsNwXjdkfqRwjfMsv3dP2CvFY_8wV-k5jUKE7rEHRKTGF_brmFvod-fwgkEujK3aQHUrsJVjGcGjS5fTi_1i9NJrbcRINRo9mB8qHXsUC6cVbqJG8/s320/leslie%20williams%20headshot.png" width="221" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Leslie Williams</span></b></div><br /></span><div><div style="text-align: center;">Hello! I'm Leslie Williams! I'm a speech language pathologist, but I've put my career on hold for the past 4.5 years to be home with my girls, Gwendolyn ("Gwen") and Catherine ("Kitty"). They are spirited little creatures with advanced senses of humor and sharp intellects! I love them with every ounce of my being, even when they make me want to scream! I live in Philadelphia, in a row home that was built in 1837! I live on a cobblestone street and everything! Happy to be a guest DT member at CSI!</div><span><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></span><div style="text-align: center;">The case file inspired my color choices as well as my layout topic. I love baking with my girls, so I had plenty of photos to choose from. The texture of the house motivated me to dry emboss my hearts. I also included dots, stripes, Christmas sweets, scallops, sparkly Thickers, and a solid, white background. I finished it off by sprinkling some splatters!</div></div></div><span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white;

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

I’m delighted to be a Guest Designer (thanks so much, Debbi). My name is Nelya Lutsyuk. I get to be a stay at home mommy to 4 kiddos. My oldest is almost 8, and my youngest is 6 months (he was born around Christmastime!). I enjoy crafting, scrapbooking in particular. I love how broad this craft is - you could include mixed media, fabric, collaging, doodling, painting, stamping, and more! It’s so much fun to be inspired and pushed out of my comfort zone by various challenges. Everyday/random stories are my favorite to document - hearing funny stories from my childhood is something I’ve always enjoyed, and I want my kids to know theirs (such as the time when my kindergartener refused to have her school picture taken). Thankfully, I have an amazing husband who totally enables me and my scrapbooking. 😁</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Here's how Nelya solved the Case: The evidence I used was: hearts, sweets, stars, scallops, circles, sprinkled background, and the overall bakery/baking theme. The testimony also documents a Christmas season memory.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji4oIjp5FNWu1cLDGa2pf0BiJlzkkWLwJ2PQLMgp7LvysVWBOdyV7JakvLgcmlMldZIOC4pYYxSWMMz0cmsPs5RBEVc6xaMptyNhdfo750Zs-BAXTwczCeevbGoGZmUhpqe6NfviMcHxlfZ3b3KPBRbJK9gGusPblCQws_PgZ-10yOf8_5ovfbn5Qwdqg/s2984/nelya.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2984" data-original-width="2984" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji4oIjp5FNWu1cLDGa2pf0BiJlzkkWLwJ2PQLMgp7LvysVWBOdyV7JakvLgcmlMldZIOC4pYYxSWMMz0cmsPs5RBEVc6xaMptyNhdfo750Zs-BAXTwczCeevbGoGZmUhpqe6NfviMcHxlfZ3b3KPBRbJK9gGusPblCQws_PgZ-10yOf8_5ovfbn5Qwdqg/w640-h640/nelya.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Next up, we have Leslie Williams guest designing.</div></div><span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></div></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO0m7IdOm0i2aLF56ooTPfuLzESpRxKjHTfnOL1CL9qStYsYEnd0FDFZWbxXrJi-7cYp6RMY9oMtlsNwXjdkfqRwjfMsv3dP2CvFY_8wV-k5jUKE7rEHRKTGF_brmFvod-fwgkEujK3aQHUrsJVjGcGjS5fTi_1i9NJrbcRINRo9mB8qHXsUC6cVbqJG8/s1504/leslie%20williams%20headshot.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1504" data-original-width="1040" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO0m7IdOm0i2aLF56ooTPfuLzESpRxKjHTfnOL1CL9qStYsYEnd0FDFZWbxXrJi-7cYp6RMY9oMtlsNwXjdkfqRwjfMsv3dP2CvFY_8wV-k5jUKE7rEHRKTGF_brmFvod-fwgkEujK3aQHUrsJVjGcGjS5fTi_1i9NJrbcRINRo9mB8qHXsUC6cVbqJG8/s320/leslie%20williams%20headshot.png" width="221" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Leslie Williams</span></b></div><br /></span><div><div style="text-align: center;">Hello! I'm Leslie Williams! I'm a speech language pathologist, but I've put my career on hold for the past 4.5 years to be home with my girls, Gwendolyn ("Gwen") and Catherine ("Kitty"). They are spirited little creatures with advanced senses of humor and sharp intellects! I love them with every ounce of my being, even when they make me want to scream! I live in Philadelphia, in a row home that was built in 1837! I live on a cobblestone street and everything! Happy to be a guest DT member at CSI!</div><span><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></span><div style="text-align: center;">The case file inspired my color choices as well as my layout topic. I love baking with my girls, so I had plenty of photos to choose from. The texture of the house motivated me to dry emboss my hearts. I also included dots, stripes, Christmas sweets, scallops, sparkly Thickers, and a solid, white background. I finished it off by sprinkling some splatters!</div></div></div><span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPg6k7BVFoUv5opRs-r7H4BNSewqWFhL8G1QWEilP4VS0h0n8wlT0DQ1mItqxn2CihPTbsA_8-OVhRae7_bA26IUA296MrGRMb14XFbmhzSSjHPPteg9I-s7o3ubi_1Uen10EMPPvpzq7kd2a9NeTcz6ecsaVwkOBF-Xjx6EcVjOSGaXIs5uzJ5M0udnM/s2840/leslie%20williams.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2840" data-original-width="2813" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPg6k7BVFoUv5opRs-r7H4BNSewqWFhL8G1QWEilP4VS0h0n8wlT0DQ1mItqxn2CihPTbsA_8-OVhRae7_bA26IUA296MrGRMb14XFbmhzSSjHPPteg9I-s7o3ubi_1Uen10EMPPvpzq7kd2a9NeTcz6ecsaVwkOBF-Xjx6EcVjOSGaXIs5uzJ5M0udnM/w634-h640/leslie%20williams.jpg" width="634" /></a></div><br /><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2228; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;"><b><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CSI DETECTIVES</span></b></b></div></span></div></div><div><div><b style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: red; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div><div>Here's what our design team created with this month's first Case File.

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">Fall is in full swing here in Maryland, and November is the month we count our blessings. We've got a Halloween-themed Case File for all those Halloween pictures you took last night, and a Thanksgiving-themed challenge for our upcoming celebration. As always, you don't have to scrap these topics. Draw your own inspiration from The Scene on the Case File, or you can use the traditional clues, which can be found at the bottom of this blog post.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set?set=oa.157272150802392&type=3&av=716674004&eav=AfZEICNhLdNKU0tNOEfqBYpKc6-CFsEhft9TbQcgr0c5F5DIA2ja-Jx0JI3eTonL7sk" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1394" data-original-width="1910" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj47VBCpqcGUKwq53L2K_rSoQQFlrp0bi23wa2Gu8gIvOWxfqB7ahgGHfRLzLqEeDOdvTOZowVHo3uX3buNldIBoE1k-ZF1b-fyrZa2MMLo_Bs8IGnEF7ixIeH2Dk8SGm5RO9YbaTxUHQ8ZDvfaiMm9q1IrskMRcXfrk6_lD5ZYjrpfMGHJ_NzqBvPOvIw/w640-h468/422%20copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Image credit: <a href="https://morevaart.ru/galereja">Anastasia Moreva</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.996828944711638&type=3" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1394" data-original-width="1910" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZeKKGfBHsabcpjU7DDRLvToQpipxeVsTaq3XQU0hV2TcB8yflDoVmIfzFA4pTUOloFopYGb6feAmOAov9GPKLEahOMCNfsum4bBpxlEmFMamXS2MCliI8Rcr2KpOTSWHhQ1fou3T2HWq76h__OpK5-RuFqvUqmbNDcVM_sFYk_-95jHZbrrLkW95j2QQ/w640-h468/423%20copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Image credit: <a href="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/10/d5/76/10d576b997d65b33c918e58b301421e4.jpg">Pinterest</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The traditional CSI clues can be found on our Facebook page in the first entry under the album.

<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired.

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">We usually do back to school as a topic for September, but we thought we'd mix it up a little this year (don't worry--you can still scrap school photos for our challenge if you'd like). September is National Women's Friendship Month as well as National Mushroom Month, so these themes inspired our Case Files. As always, you don't have to scrap these topics. Draw your own inspiration from The Scene on the Case File, or you can use the traditional clues, which can be found at the bottom of this blog post.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set?set=oa.314295944523013&type=3&av=716674004&eav=AfYMbXbJFF6M5K-YZ18FWKY7tXakmrduhgXUSwYf95CL8mxw_uIw8NU5wgypvPm7YT4" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1394" data-original-width="1910" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1rHNKGzHPM8AZ7JDrSyEu5nO3-NsHhjYrp4moDx-IUDkyXR0TmEuM410LTpGMxsIo75gWyyAo0IZhJoy4hVIkKt9ZAeVU8v8q8L9NsVaLD55bk7zEha34a7GWljPUsH6KLYuOxnMkwdlowyyBNiItqlyFfaeQBVHbI9To-va8KQ8C_aVeJ5kHhK5kyyo/w640-h468/418%20copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Image credit: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/677678354/friendship-art-print-8x8-women-in-nature?epik=dj0yJnU9a0VwcnBxS1pBdlpRTFJUa1pVRWlRTEtXTHRTUEdtbi0mcD0wJm49TlAwUkpmS2dCdFJBeGJWckF0NzBGUSZ0PUFBQUFBR1R3bGpV">Holly Maguire</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.1086369635950780&type=3" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1394" data-original-width="1910" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqSG4zt2UnyrPr7iR3oXVO_kA0LwezmtmSeMnUaDdgo_jvL_19dLGAPPN9HpX5HHrRYLdLiWsgNSDt2xWV8QY793PIaMVBBPhIgxZldB3RBVkr2LR-X6IqqpEl_lXJ-0TXWFqNK9PngqrdwvHV7wudCVWy3eUD-Vm2SrwQy3YYBuNYA-NLScn_U2HoXrM/w640-h468/419%20copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Image credit: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/1073333068/make-magic-happen-mushroom-pngeps?epik=dj0yJnU9OUk3TDdkaUdpYy1NSzNzMk5sY2ZOQ3lQWTdBazRVemEmcD0wJm49ak5ZMnZBUTFVaGx4eUNUUEo0bE0zQSZ0PUFBQUFBR1R3bHAw">Hanie and Honey</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The traditional CSI clues can be found on our Facebook page in the first entry under the album.

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">We usually do back to school as a topic for September, but we thought we'd mix it up a little this year (don't worry--you can still scrap school photos for our challenge if you'd like). September is National Women's Friendship Month as well as National Mushroom Month, so these themes inspired our Case Files. As always, you don't have to scrap these topics. Draw your own inspiration from The Scene on the Case File, or you can use the traditional clues, which can be found at the bottom of this blog post.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set?set=oa.314295944523013&type=3&av=716674004&eav=AfYMbXbJFF6M5K-YZ18FWKY7tXakmrduhgXUSwYf95CL8mxw_uIw8NU5wgypvPm7YT4" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1394" data-original-width="1910" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1rHNKGzHPM8AZ7JDrSyEu5nO3-NsHhjYrp4moDx-IUDkyXR0TmEuM410LTpGMxsIo75gWyyAo0IZhJoy4hVIkKt9ZAeVU8v8q8L9NsVaLD55bk7zEha34a7GWljPUsH6KLYuOxnMkwdlowyyBNiItqlyFfaeQBVHbI9To-va8KQ8C_aVeJ5kHhK5kyyo/w640-h468/418%20copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Image credit: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/677678354/friendship-art-print-8x8-women-in-nature?epik=dj0yJnU9a0VwcnBxS1pBdlpRTFJUa1pVRWlRTEtXTHRTUEdtbi0mcD0wJm49TlAwUkpmS2dCdFJBeGJWckF0NzBGUSZ0PUFBQUFBR1R3bGpV">Holly Maguire</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.1086369635950780&type=3" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1394" data-original-width="1910" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqSG4zt2UnyrPr7iR3oXVO_kA0LwezmtmSeMnUaDdgo_jvL_19dLGAPPN9HpX5HHrRYLdLiWsgNSDt2xWV8QY793PIaMVBBPhIgxZldB3RBVkr2LR-X6IqqpEl_lXJ-0TXWFqNK9PngqrdwvHV7wudCVWy3eUD-Vm2SrwQy3YYBuNYA-NLScn_U2HoXrM/w640-h468/419%20copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Image credit: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/1073333068/make-magic-happen-mushroom-pngeps?epik=dj0yJnU9OUk3TDdkaUdpYy1NSzNzMk5sY2ZOQ3lQWTdBazRVemEmcD0wJm49ak5ZMnZBUTFVaGx4eUNUUEo0bE0zQSZ0PUFBQUFBR1R3bHAw">Hanie and Honey</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The traditional CSI clues can be found on our Facebook page in the first entry under the album.

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">ANNOUNCEMENTS</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We're excited to welcome a new Detective to our team!

My name is Wendy, and I live in a small town in western Michigan. I’ve been married to my husband, Jon, for over 25 years, and we have two daughters, Paige (20) and Erin (18). This fall I’ll be experiencing an empty nest for the first time, so I’m working to fill that void with lots of creating! I’m also a third grade teacher, and we do have a beloved dog named Maxwell, so I plan to stay very busy. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">My scrapping journey began in 2005 with a blank spiral notebook, a bunch of zoo pictures, some animal stickers, and colorful markers to make a memory book for my daughter, and I was hooked! Today I scrap 12x12 exclusively, and I’ve added just a few more materials to my stash. <img src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/tb0/1.5/16/1f609.png" /> I’m thrilled to be joining the CSI team, and I’m looking forward to the challenges ahead!

My name is Heidi and I live in Orange County in sunny Southern California. I live with my husband and 2 kitties Jupiter and Europa.<br /><br />I started scrapbooking almost 20 years ago when it was offered as an elective at my high school (can you believe it?!) and I haven’t stopped since. My favorite way to create a page is to start with a sketch and a color palette and then pull everything from my stash in those colors. I never know what I’ll end up using on a layout. I have lots of hobbies like yoga, reading books and video games, but I love the creative outlet that scrapbooking provides me. It allows me to connect with my memories on a more meaningful level than just scrolling through my phone.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK4kvhWLn4c0UZVy4INSRA24aysgc01OAtTbuKCpXoWlyev2GIyxZe6jhStyzKnSxrm1RtcnSZfsFZ5dIb7LwB6wOSuMgsYEIszSDZhH2aemhfLzisBDa0t4S-rUMVT3FQiXYhuhtIrbeCBl4ICPrXVqQYBcRzAOvVa_w-GTbctBMrJiDMKRGAdpCb02c/s3024/heidi%20moniz%20layout.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK4kvhWLn4c0UZVy4INSRA24aysgc01OAtTbuKCpXoWlyev2GIyxZe6jhStyzKnSxrm1RtcnSZfsFZ5dIb7LwB6wOSuMgsYEIszSDZhH2aemhfLzisBDa0t4S-rUMVT3FQiXYhuhtIrbeCBl4ICPrXVqQYBcRzAOvVa_w-GTbctBMrJiDMKRGAdpCb02c/w640-h640/heidi%20moniz%20layout.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />Here's how Jessica solved the second August Case File: This layout was for case file 417 and I was inspired by the following: stripes, woodgrain,nautical-themed items, boat, buttons, envelopes, fish/seashells/seagulls, put most of my elements in an envelope.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="13" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="320" /></div><br />Next up, we have Jessica Navarro. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm1BB7LReOyjLu4PBrAth3cXwdct8GN_ohlX5l1h_UQZDvWhBBjlfGHAusnRVWAxf8GVDyIgTwZEmln2G1Z0wSQ-3JoreR2cKTIubRLfgXtxNWQiXonZ5UIbul4nT-Sprtehmj7HMjCuEiVoclkBMYoBQfSqpqJAHwInh1NqKmAuwH46oNT3aCYzEQ7So/s1938/jessica%20navarro.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1938" data-original-width="1444" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm1BB7LReOyjLu4PBrAth3cXwdct8GN_ohlX5l1h_UQZDvWhBBjlfGHAusnRVWAxf8GVDyIgTwZEmln2G1Z0wSQ-3JoreR2cKTIubRLfgXtxNWQiXonZ5UIbul4nT-Sprtehmj7HMjCuEiVoclkBMYoBQfSqpqJAHwInh1NqKmAuwH46oNT3aCYzEQ7So/w149-h200/jessica%20navarro.JPG" width="149" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Here are a few words from Jessica. Hello to all my scrappy friends, my name is Jessica Navarro and I’m super excited to be a Guest Detective for CSI this month! I’m an Sr. Vice President/Electrical Engineer at an amazing firm designing hospitals by day and a wife/mama by night. I’ve been married to a wonderful man for over 14 years that completely supports my craft obsession. He even encourages me to purchase crafty supplies – stay back, he’s mine! I’m a mommy to a super intelligent and independent 11 year old, who is officially the most photographed child in the world; seriously, it’s a documented fact. I’ve been scrapbooking for almost 30 years and I love using challenges, like CSI, to push my creative limits and to use more of my overflowing stash. Come check out more of my crafty layouts on my blog at: <a href="http://scraplifterdesigns.blogspot.com">scraplifterdesigns.blogspot.com</a> or on IG <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jessicanavarro75/">@jessicanavarro75</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaiFcCvHYd08XKuoZ6PWXbI1LNwj3qec0HyECF3BCqIovwl8WrfSspHz2FaJ2r0xfl7hWEsPPJ6GDZp8D7LzzoEf_cVY_P6daCUKuEtIkaB0pdAVKGZ8x8r7e08CFKWyU15H0-6mwpaINgxzD07str3DgEu3SPQUoQoSyaU14IqQz18grzdmg8H_8X1fM/s3762/jessica%20navarro.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1831" data-original-width="3762" height="312" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaiFcCvHYd08XKuoZ6PWXbI1LNwj3qec0HyECF3BCqIovwl8WrfSspHz2FaJ2r0xfl7hWEsPPJ6GDZp8D7LzzoEf_cVY_P6daCUKuEtIkaB0pdAVKGZ8x8r7e08CFKWyU15H0-6mwpaINgxzD07str3DgEu3SPQUoQoSyaU14IqQz18grzdmg8H_8X1fM/w640-h312/jessica%20navarro.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Here's how Jessica solved the second August Case File: Case File #417 called to me from the sea! During our recent vacation to Maine, we spent a lot of time on boat excursions; including a harbor cruise as the sunset on the 4th of July. We were lucky enough to see a juvenile humpback whale surface and wrapped up the cruise with amazing fireworks over the ocean. Since this was a boat excursion, I loved the idea of writing my journaling as an itinerary and used that as my Testimony. The colors immediately reminded me of the Simple Stories Simple Vintage Vintage Seas line, so I solved the case using the color scheme: medium/light blue, navy, and rusty red. For my evidence I used striped ribbon, woodgrain tiny arrows, nautical-themed ephemera and stickers, a paper with a lighthouse for my background, a notecard with a boat (and my photos are of us on the boat), a life preserver in the banner at the top, and a couple of foam hearts. I created die-cut waves and added nuvo jewel drops to the tops to give them shiny whitecaps. Additionally, I stamped my journaling lines and the itinerary times, I put a little photo of the cresting humpback in a window up in my banner, I used ink splatters on my background, I used enamel dots for circles, seagull stickers, and chipboard whales. I had a lot of pictures I wanted to document on this page so I stretched it to a double page layout. I love to include lots of photos on my layouts and this case was the perfect inspiration! I can’t wait to see how you solve this fun seaworthy case!<br /><br />Supplies used on my layout: Simple Stories Simple Vintage Vintage Seas paper, ephemera stickers, labels, tabs, foam stickers and enamel dots; Elle's Studio stamps; Tim Holtz distress oxides speckled egg and faded jeans; Quickutz wave die; Nuvo jewel drops sea breeze and steel blue; CTMH wood arrows; and misc. ribbon from my stash.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">ANNOUNCEMENTS</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We're excited to welcome a new Detective to our team!

This fall I’ll be experiencing an empty nest for the first time, so I’m working to fill that void with lots of creating!

Hello to all my scrappy friends, my name is Jessica Navarro and I’m super excited to be a Guest Detective for CSI this month! I’m an Sr. Vice President/Electrical Engineer at an amazing firm designing hospitals by day and a wife/mama by night. I’ve been married to a wonderful man for over 14 years that completely supports my craft obsession. He even encourages me to purchase crafty supplies – stay back, he’s mine! I’m a mommy to a super intelligent and independent 11 year old, who is officially the most photographed child in the world; seriously, it’s a documented fact. I’ve been scrapbooking for almost 30 years and I love using challenges, like CSI, to push my creative limits and to use more of my overflowing stash. Come check out more of my crafty layouts on my blog at: <a href="http://scraplifterdesigns.blogspot.com">scraplifterdesigns.blogspot.com</a> or on IG <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jessicanavarro75/">@jessicanavarro75</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc-p0egDlVgZJbKZt73gfrCI3OnOW67G5W0Luh80Pd1uEVzkDtOVhiCxCS7dWRWpX7xngocRnTmPAPYRk7rUmGvAGf6CWFPGAICM_IfYY-DToszzeA8dtyID6gGTQGbFtR1p-mZq8d1ZMB_tKJd-kI5cI8HVuyLJJCgVOg-KJCqyouKma5J5tUpvELt-c/s2820/2023-07-02%20Acadia%20Juan%20and%20Wave3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2820" data-original-width="2815" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc-p0egDlVgZJbKZt73gfrCI3OnOW67G5W0Luh80Pd1uEVzkDtOVhiCxCS7dWRWpX7xngocRnTmPAPYRk7rUmGvAGf6CWFPGAICM_IfYY-DToszzeA8dtyID6gGTQGbFtR1p-mZq8d1ZMB_tKJd-kI5cI8HVuyLJJCgVOg-KJCqyouKma5J5tUpvELt-c/w638-h640/2023-07-02%20Acadia%20Juan%20and%20Wave3.jpg" width="638" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Here's how Jessica solved the first August Case File: We just returned from a wonderful vacation in Maine, hiking and exploring Arcadia National Park; so I was inspired by the summer/vacation prompt and theme. I’ve been looking for the perfect opportunity to use the Heidi Swapp Sun Chaser line, this was it! I solved Case File No. 416 using the color scheme: Aqua, butter yellow, muted red, white, and sand. For my evidence I used small enamel dots, summer beach/theme elements, sun, waves, a banner, stitching as my decorative border, splatters, and cursive font. For my testimony I documented our summer vacation.<br /><br />This was a fun and bold case file perfect for those summer memories and I thoroughly enjoyed playing along.

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">GUEST DETECTIVES</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">This month, we're excited to have Jenny Andersson as a guest designer.

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">GUEST DETECTIVES</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">This month, we're excited to have Jenny Andersson as a guest designer.

<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>

<b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">PRIZES</span></b><br />
<br />CSI has been running our challenges for 11 years, since 2012, and our savings have dwindled over the years, so we no longer have the ability to provide a monthly gift certificate, but we do have enough to give away a prize every 4 months this year, so we'll be awarding a $20 (U.S. dollars) gift certificate to your favorite online craft store (must take Paypal) to one lucky player according to the following schedule--so the more you play, the more chances you'll have.</div><div><br /></div><div>January - April Case Files will be awarded on or after May 4</div><div>May - August Case Files will be awarded in on or after September 4</div><div>October - December Case Files will be awarded on or after next January 4</div><div><br /></div><div>You will see the customary due date on the Case Files because I'll check those for guest designers, but feel free to go back and play with Case Files that have expired. As long as they're in the albums by the May, September, and January dates listed above, you'll be eligible for the prize.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU=s293" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="293" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6Cq2OMwllUBd7jSVUChWN1NmBZ8HU1FgQezgrveWzTPxGRQxwEelTvIs3fj2CDB9Fa1bvqdHJmxuI9UD8r2MWDz4gTE5_6TSh3QywJqubwWVt9yV_0j32BScYInc_BHydEkG4FKItcvJ__57eqvTo8OOcU5jI4Isgg1TCv-OwuFXADL8-9wKLiXNU" width="293" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We'll also be inviting some players whose work catches our eye to serve as Guest Detectives along the way.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s332/Guest%20Detective.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="329" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeBaP5q_GKwO3rBIa-alYX8ymWiJZ8WquUiQ9nIfG-UmyMx2E-A8z097omvBn_QGGvKgStmRJnClU23Zs4lQc_88vfvkY9ec3zoGdENuJFFhsD9OIz0GY1Umu5_yM1uVnmrpA17VvoPSIC0bISci2v99z3gS3Woq6FTYPZSFKxx2E_cKuI6NfqPKhj/s320/Guest%20Detective.jpg" width="317" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="25" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Decorative_text_divider.svg/2000px-Decorative_text_divider.svg.png" width="640" /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: red; font-size: large;">CASE FILES </span></b></div>
