Special Investigator on CSI

Всем привет!
Сегодня уже могу поделится замечательной новостью)) В этом месяце меня пригласили побыть Специальным Следователем на портале CSI: Color, Stories, Inspiration
Для меня это огромная радость  - мои странички заметили! И огромная ответственность, так как я совсем недавно занимаюсь страничками. А на портале для их создания нужно выполнять три условия: палитра, основные элементы и журналинг - есть над чем поломать голову!

Hello to everyone!
Today I can share with you a great event! I have been invited to join the CSI team as a Special Investigator this month! I'm very happy that my LOs attract your attention! It's a real pleasure and a real chellenge to create for your case files. And I hope I'll manage it))

А вот и моя страничка!
And this is my LO

А вот и само задание - палитра, основные элементы и журналинг
And this is Case File 117

Когда я увидела вдохновение, то сразу вспомнила о своих детских фотографиях. У меня их совсем немного. И одна из самых любимых - я на велосипеде. Мне показалось, что фото идеально подойдет к картинке-вдохновению и к палитре, а потому и настроение ностальгически-светло-счастливого детства можно будет передать как можно ближе к вдохновению.

When I saw the Case File I was greatly inspired by the colors and inspiration elements. The mood board reminded me a photo of mine. I don't have many photos of my childhood, but those I have represent really happy moments of my life.
I decided to follow the mood board as close as possible and preserve the spirit of old happy days.

Страничка получилась многослойной и по-легкому винтажной. Использовала бумагу от разных производителей, дыроколы и вырубки, много украшений. Нет только моих любимых красок-масок)) Из основных элементов использовала практически все, а в журналинге - детское стихотворение о велосипеде.
Evidence: gears (chipboard), circles (paper button and letter stickers), metals (leaves), "ransom"-style lettering, flowers, rub-ons, butterflies, a bicycle, an arrow. Testimony: journaling in the form of a poem - a poem for kids about a bicycle by Tassie Stuart

Немного деталек
Close-ups

 И еще раз общий план))

 Еще решила скопировать для истории интервью со мной)) Правда, оно на английском) Фотография летняя (по секрету - я сейчас похудела немного))

Hello!
My name is Yulia Mozhova and my nick on the blogspot is YuliaM
I am from Ukraine and live in a small beautiful town not far from Kyiv. I’m a mum to a five year old boy who is very smart and unpredictable and who can show the beauty and brightness of the world to his busy parents. I’m also a wife to a very supportive husband who is always ready to help me with a critical view of my projects.
I work as a teacher of English at the military university and really love my job. When being on maternity leave, I started cardmaking. This interesting and very exciting journey started in 2011. Only a few months ago I understood that was ready for scrapbooking. And now I’m fond of opening up new horizons))

Interrogation
What is your favorite color(s) to work with? No favorite color)) The choice of a color depends on my mood, on the topic I want to work with, on the photo. When I started scrapbooking I really enjoyed working with earth tones and different distress colors. Blue was my favorite color for a long time as well. And now I am fond of green and yellow.
What would you say is your "fingerprint" on your scrapbook pages? (i.e., what do most of your pages have that make it your signature style?)  I am still in search of my style. I’m trying different styles and techniques. But even now I can say that in every my LO there are many layers: paper, paints and sprays, modeling paste, stamping, freestyle features and so on. I just can’t leave much open space in a piece of cardstock))
What do you find most challenging when working on a layout? The most challenging for me is to start working on a layout)) I have an image of the future LO in my head, I see paper and embellishments, but it can take me up to several days to start working. And when I start working I deeply involved  into the process and really love it .
What is your favorite part about CSI--the colors, the stories, or the inspiration? My favorite part is the inspiration. When I look at the image and read the elements which can be used in a layout, I start to imagine my layout, think of a possible photo and choose embellishments. Of course, the colors and the stories also help a lot but my starting point is the inspiration.
Confession time. Okay, fess up! What secret do you not want to admit but are willing to confess here? Okay)) I am a very lazy person)) And I want to buy some new scrap collections but I don’t want my husband to know about it))

Спасибо, что заглядываете ко мне в гости! До встречи!
Thanks for your visit!
