CSI #9.....Color, Stories, Inspiration.






Joining in at CSI again this week. I love the prompts given out....they really spark off my imagination and get ideas flowing.There is lots of symbolism used in this page about my youngest daughter. During the past 12 months she has travelled a long way emotionally. She has made mistakes, suffered serious consequences, experienced loss and found strength. But through all this I really hope she never gives up on her dreams.




My evidence details include a bird accent, hot-air balloon, mesh, definition tape and I have used a six word memoir as my journalling.....
"Dream with your eyes wide open".







Thanks for dropping by. We have a long weekend here in South Australia so we're heading to beautiful Robe for a few days via the Coonawarra so there is the bonus of picking up some wine on the way. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend what ever you may be doing. xx

  6. I'm sorry I haven't been here for awhile, but I keep track of your pages on my sidebar. I realize that's not an excuse, but my days are starting to fill more than I can imagine.

    You did an awesome job with this challenge. The page is superb and I was impressed with your balloon, too.
