Around The Campfire

 Hey there Scrappy Friends!

I have been scrapping for about 27 years now. I have so many scrapbooks and pages made. I am pretty much caught up. I have decided to take a break from scrapping at least for a little while so this will be my last post for CSI and on my blog. I want to thank Debbi at CSI for having me and letting me share my creativity over the years. Also, thanks to everyone who stops and reads my posts here on my blog. 

Here is my last layout for CSI using case file #436. I was inspired by the colors and of coarse, the camping theme:

I used textured white cardstock for my background. I added Distressed Inks through the Tree Stencil and Cloud Border Stencil from Creative Embellishments. I tore a strip of patterned paper and cut a circle from patterned paper and stitched it to my background. I used Simple Stories and Echo park stash for this fun page.

I added my photo which I matted on patterned paper. Then I added lots of fussy cut items around it:

I added a torn strip of patterned paper to the bottom of my page and added a cluster of embellishments- some fussy cut and a sticker:

I fussy cut the banner from a Simple Stories paper and placed that under my photo. I machine stitched it in place:

Here is a quick look at the case file:

I was inspired by the colors and camping theme. For evidence, I used: plaid, woodgrain pattern, camping themed items, wood, watercolor, bird, animal, trees, leaves, camper, boat, signs, lantern, clouds and cursive font.
