Zi End {CSI Case File No. 170}

We've got a fun, new Case File open for investigation at CSI: Color, Stories, Inspiration:

Here's my page. Clues I used... Evidence: banner, arrows, stripes, triangles, solid brads, flair, scallops, photo corners, asterisks, metal, window (sort of). Testimony: inspiration words--run, summer, delicious.

I used the current sketch at Sketchabilities as inspiration for my page:

Here are some details. The awesome alphabet cut file is from The Cut Shoppe, one of our sponsors this month. It's Called "Little Letters" and is just perfect for telling my story. That chipboard geotag is by MAMBI. Papers I used are American Crafts, Amy Tan (turquoise), Bella Blvd. (red), SEI (navy), and October Afternoon (green). I added a little washi tape to the edges for the stripe clue.

The "yum" button is from A Flair for Buttons. The letters and asterisks are American Crafts, with the exception of the large Z, which I cut out with my Silhouette. That metal photo corner is ancient--by Making Memories, I believe. The scallop border sticker is by Echo Park.

This little cluster tells my story. Some of you might remember my Alphabet Adventure layout. My husband and I have eaten through the alphabet, a different letter each week when we go to lunch after church. We made it through the end of the alphabet, hence the title. The label stickers are super old, by Fontwerks. Don't you hate it when a company goes away? The tiny triangle stamp is by Kaiser Kraft. I used some Heidi Swapp mist to add a few random drops and outlined them with black pen.

This was a really fun Case File to work with. Go check out what the rest of the team and guest designers made with this Case File.
