Joy {CSI Cold Case + Paper Issues Free File Free-for-All}

I created this page for a friend using the February Cold Case File at CSI: Color, Stories, Inspiration and Paper Issues Free File Free-for-All challenge.

So, this year, we introduced Cold Cases. These are designed to get us using our old stash. Here's the Case File I used.

Here were the clues:

And here are some details. That frame is by Making Memories. I'm quite sure I didn't buy it but it came in a Noel Mignon kit years ago. I didn't think I'd ever use it, but as I was digging through my box of Christmas embellishments, I saw it and thought it looked like a wreath, which was one of the clues in the Case File. Those glittery poinsettia flowers are also pretty old.

The cut file is a free cut file from Paper Issues called Songs of the Season.

The chipboard present is by 2Crafty. They're sponsoring us this month. I adhered BasicGrey paper to the present and tied on a little tag to hold the title. The red paper in the background is also an old BasicGrey paper, as is that striped strip at the bottom.

I hope you'll come play in our challenges. Look at the sponsors we have donating prizes this month at CSI:
