Today I'm sharing a layout for CSI design team.
I hope you will use the link
CSI - color stories inspiration
to pop over and see the wonderful examples created by the rest of the team.
I struggled a bit with this colour palette until I found
an old paper with the pink tones on it.
I used a sketch from PURPLE PUMPKIN which I really love.

The photo is not the best quality, but it was a happy day so it made the cut.
The brown, floral paper is also Paper Loft - Back Country, “Mountain meadow”
The orange is from Echo Park - “Borders”
The border punch is by Martha Gardner - embossed zigzag

TESTIMONY
I used the inspiration words, Giggle and Enjoy as part of the journalling which is on the back of the page.
I found this quote recently and it reminded me to treat children as unique individuals, each with their own gifts and talents. Not that there is any danger of you and your twin being lumped together in a “one size fits all” approach, because you just would not respond to that. You are different is almost every way. Occasionally you come to blows, if your brother has something you’d like and vice versa. I am surprised at how readily you share, once you’ve had a won the battle. You are such lucky boys to have Parents that make you giggle, who enjoy playing with you, and are happy to take you to playgroup to meet your little friends. Journalling 9 Feb ’14 Love Granny
