CSI Challenge 104 - Celebrate the little things

I loved the gorgeous girly colours this week and had fun scrapping
this photo of DGD and her beloved Papa.
The idea of the challenge is to use all the colours, at least
two of the evidence promts and at least one of the testimony prompts.
Why not pop over and see the inspiration by the Design Team at CSI
You have until 12th December USA time to join in. 13th in Australia

The background paper is My Mind's Eye, Flair "Forever" paper

A few closies

I used watercolour paper and gelatos for the heart die

A Martha Stewart doily tucked into the corner

The scattered hearts are made with a Heidi Swap stencil (confetti)

TESTIMONY

I chose to document something about sleeping and used the inspirations word smiles as part of the story.

The journalling reads:-

I love this photo when you’d just learned to give big sloppy kisses. Lots of practice makes perfect and you had plenty of willing subjects to practice with.

You two always gravitate to each other with arms outstretched and beaming smiles; you are besotted with each other.

At two and a half you decided that Pa should be called Papa with a French accent and Papa happily responds to his new sobriquet.

You’ve always been a busy girl; anxious to keep moving lest your eyes happen to droop if you stay still for a second. You sometimes still have a tiny nap in the afternoon, but are happy to party on, if there is anything fun happening.

You’ve changed so much since this photo was taken. A good reminder to record precious moments. Love Granny 2 Feb 2013
