December Case FIles - Mid-month Reveal | Deadline: January 4, 2021

December is half over, and Christmas is almost here! We hope this season brings you joy and peace in these uncertain times.

Don't forget that all three of our challenges stay open all month long! We hope you'll have some time to play with us during winter break!

ANNOUNCEMENTS 

We are pleased to welcome a new Detective to the CSI design team, Sheena Rowlands!

Here's a bit about Sheena, in her own words: 

Hi my name is Sheena Rowlands & I live in the UK with my husband. I'm a mum to 3 grown up children and a part time RN. I’ve always loved crafting & tried many hobbies before settling with scrapbooking in 2006. I’ve also recorded our lives using Project Life for 10 years now, which gives me the freedom to scrapbook my children, our travels & our new Grand pup. I’ve been lucky to have been on a few design teams and teach classes which I love and now run a scrapbook retreat business with 2 friends. You can find me:
