Sponsor Winners and Under Surveillance - November and December

As many of you know, I'm an elementary school teacher, and it's always a busy job, but some years are busier than others, and this seems to be one of them. November and December caught me by storm, and I got way behind with CSI, so I want to apologize for the delay in announcing our favorites and winners from November and our winners from October. I promise to do better in the new year.

A big thank you to everyone who participated in our challenges the past two months. Congratulations to all of our players who are highlighted! You can grab your badges here.

First, we present our favorites from Case File No. 265. Here's a reminder of the Case File they used:




For each Case File, three of our favorite layouts are chosen to feature as our "Most Wanted." (If we showcase more than 3, it's because there was a tie.)

Tell your story. It's our tagline, and here at CSI, it's one of our missions to get our members to delve deeper into journaling--to document the meaningful bits and pieces that make up our lives. We would like to shine a special spotlight each week on a member who did an exceptional job telling their story. And we'd like to thank Scrapbook Fantasies for donating a wonderful prize to our Star Witness for each Case File.

Deanna Deaton

We love Deanna's heartfelt note to her mom, and we especially love that she handwrote her journaling on that sweet tag and made it a part of her beautiful design!



Here are a few more that caught our eye...
Carolyn Haswell

Wendy Crowe

And here are our favorites from Case File No. 266. Here's a reminder of the Case File they used:



Gunilla R
Yogiki (Ulia)
Giorgia Rossini for Scrappando

Cynthia B
We were so impressed by the way Cynthia was able to tell her story of her daughter's marching band season, not only through extensive journaling right on her page but also through so many wonderful  stories.

Giorgia Rossini
Stefania Falasco

Carolyn Haswell


Lauren Mullarkey
We not only liked the story behind Lauren's annual tradition of going back to her high school for their fruit sale, but we also love how she hand-journaled on those stripes--such a great way to incorporate journaling into her page design!


And here are our favorites from Case File No. 268. Here's a reminder of the Case File they used:



Yogiki (Ulia)

Rona
Carolyn Haswell

Lynn Dunton
The sweet photo on the giant Christmas bauble caught our eye, and we enjoyed learning about Lynn's tradition of dressing the kids in Christmas attire. I'd say Isabelle is definitely on Santa's Nice list!
