May Case Files - First Reveal - Deadline: May 31, 2019

Happy May! At CSI a new month brings all kinds of excitement! Besides our three new Case Files, we've got new sponsors and new guest designers. And this month we have a special surprise--we're teaming up with Tell Us Story, a Russian sketch challenge! You are sure to be inspired by their sketches, and it's another fun clue for solving our Case Files!

For this first reveal, we'll be sharing inspiration from the design team and guest designers for our first Case File. On the 15th, we'll be sharing inspiration from the design team and guest designers for our second Case File. Somewhere in between, we'll be posting our Cold Case File, our new stash-busting challenge for this year.

SPONSORS 

This month, we have seven generous sponsors. Click here to read more about our sponsors and the prizes they are donating. Winners will be selected randomly from all of our players, with a few exceptions where sponsors have asked us to choose from certain geographic regions.

CASE FILES 

We present our May Case Files. Traditional clues can be found at the bottom of this blog post.

May is National Photography Month. Case File No. 281 celebrates photography with this super-fun Scene found at Sloeginfizz.

The quirky Scene for Case File No. 282 was chosen for our mid-month Case File because May 27 is Hug Your Cat Day. The art on this Case File is by Sara Pulver.

The Scene from our lovely May Cold Case was found at Positively Splendid.

The traditional CSI clues can be found on our Facebook page in the first entry under the album. Just click on the Case File images above. They are also posted at the bottom of this reveal.

To submit your layouts, click on the Case Files above, which will bring you to the individual albums in our Facebook group.

GUEST DESIGNERS

We are so happy to have members of Scrap Accent, The ScrapRoom and Tell Us Story design teams serving as Guest Detectives this month! You are sure to be inspired by their work! 

INSPIRATION 

And now, are you ready for some serious inspiration? Here's what our design team and guest designers created with Case File No. 281. We will share their creations for Case File No. 282 on the 15th, and the Cold Case reveal will happen somewhere in between.

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

 

Our Guest Detectives from Scrap Accent did an awesome job solving the Case File:

The ScrapRoom designers rocked the Case File too:

How Dee solved the Case: This is my take on the CSI sketch. I did a background stamp with the turquoise. The Shimelle Sparkle City page kit from the ScrapRoom's May Flavors of the month was perfect for these pictures as Vegas being a Sparkle City. This is my granddaughter’s trip for her golden birthday celebration.

The fabulous Tell Us Story design team masterfully solved the Case File:
