Dear all,
Happy Friday! And Happy May! But before sharing what's going on at CSI (Color, Stories, Inspiration), I would like to give you a food for thought which is,"Climb mountains not so the world can see you, but so you can see the world."
We love the beginning of a new month--so many new things--new sponsors, new guest designers, and a new theme tying together our Case Files--not to mention the debut of our newest Detectives. This week we present our Major Case File, which stays open for investigation for the whole month and features our Composite Sketch, created just for us by The Nifty Pixel!
We're so excited to have 3 main sponsors this month! They are presented alphabetically.
First up, we have Flying Unicorn, our generous permanent sponsor, supporting CSI this month as a main sponsor.
Flying Unicorn...it’s about One of a Kind. ...it’s about One of a Kind. They offer an incredible selection of products for all paper crafting artists. Their Kit of the Month is filled with the latest and greatest and includes an off-the-page project to keep your creative muse flowing! Be sure to check out the Flying Unicorn forums, a hot and happening place which includes monthly challenges, tips, techniques and friendships that last! They also have a blog and a Facebook page where you can find loads of inspiration!

Third, we have Studio Tekturek returning as a main sponsor.
We’re Studio Tekturek and we’re a small, Polish brand manufacturing papers and products for paper crafting (scrapbooking and cardmaking). We try to make our designs fresh and versatile with energetic colors. We make significant efforts to create modern design and high quality of manufactured goods, and most importantly we do it with passion! Our products are friendly to people and memories, in a simple way allowing to capture the magic of a great time and good moments. They’re complementary and provide an appropriate background for scrapbooking activity. Our most important goal is to bring color, fun and good energy to the scrap-world! Nice to meet you!
Be sure to check out Studio Tekturek's website, blog, and Facebook page for information about their products and for oodles of inspiration from their design team.

Finally, we are pleased to our permanent sponsor who will be offering a wonderful prize of embellishments to this month's Star Witnesses.
Scrapbook Fantasies is a Scrapbooking, Papercrafts and Mixed Media business opened in November 2002 in Gladstone, Queensland. The well stocked store receives new stock daily, and supports a boutique style online store here. The owner Alicia runs Weekly Challenges and many other competitions giving away over $250 dollars in store vouchers every month. The Gallery hosts thousands of customer creations, and is available for viewing without login. Parcels are posted within Australia at a flat $6.50 or the actual postage rate (whichever is the lesser), or FREE for orders over $100. International parcels are posted at the actual postage rate.
We're designating May as another Mix-It-Up Month. Did you know that May 1 is the beginning ofToad Suck Daze? You'll have to go read about this unusually named festival. With that in mind, we've chosen a wacky Scene to inspire this week's Case File, by Alexandra Narvaez.
So, are you ready for this week's challenge? Grab your forensics kits, CSI members, and get ready for some serious sleuthing as we open Case File No. 163.
And here's my layout...
The Color Scheme : Unbefroggably Green, Turquoise Daze, Toilet Water, Porcelain Goddes and Toadally Brown.
The Evidence : Frame, Washi Tape, Scallops and Watercolor.
The Testimony : I chose Presentation which is framing my journaling.
Thanks for stopping by, hope that you could also play along... Hugs, Merry.
